 Welbeck Hotel and Apartments

Welbeck Hotel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent
"Nico at check in was helpful. The hotel is very cool, different than any I have stayed in. The room we had with a 3 year old was perfect because it had a bedroom and separate living room. The location is great. Washing machine is essential. The kitchen in the room was a great size. Staff was friendly and helpful. I would stay here again."

"We had our honeymoon on the island in 1996, and just celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary by returning. The staff at the Halvard was so nice, and so accommodating. The room was much larger than most in old Victorian hotels. It was also very quiet, I had a very nice updated bathroom and had an incredible view of Douglas Harbor. The breakfast was a nice combination of buffet and custom order, and we also ate dinner there the first night, and it was excellent. Would highly recommend staying at the Halvard."

10/10 Excellent
"This was our third year at the Sefton staying in one of their Atrium rooms with balcony. It’s relaxing to sit on the balcony and listen to the waterfall and because it’s under cover, doesn’t matter if it’s raining, lovely at nighttime all lit up. Fridge and safe are so useful to have. It’s a great hotel, reception and housekeeping staff are all so helpful and create a warm friendly atmosphere. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else now."
