The Wesley is in a great location and has a certain homey, funky charm. Easy walk to everything in Oak Bluffs. Lovely view of the harbor from the rocking chairs on the porch. It was refreshing to stay in a place with some individual character.

We stayed two nights over Memorial Day weekend. Our expectations were pretty low, but the hotel managed to disappoint. The best part of the hotel is that its very close to everything. An old hotel is fine, but the beds, linens, everything about it was old and needed an upgrade desparately (think scratchy sheets, thin towels, lumpy pillows, old mattresses.... More

On a three week trip to New England and Canada, this was the worst place we stayed. They are open only because everything else is full. It is an old hotel with small rooms...which is what one might expect. But parking is tough and no one...no one at the front desk is of much help for whatever you need. The... More

Some people come to a beachfront resort to get the fresh sea-air, but that's over-rated. Come for a stay at the Wesley Hotel and enjoy the rich, refreshing scent of cigarette smoke. Your tiny room, your bed-sheets, the hallway -- have all been enhanced with the fragrant aroma of Marlboro lights. This scent was years in the making -- and... More

I visited Oak Bluffs from Aug. 16-20, 2012. This was my second stay at the Wesley Hotel and yes I've read the other reviews and find it hard to believe what others have experienced. I still love this hotel for many of the reasons I stated in an earlier review. The room was clean and in order upon arrival. The... More

I have never been to a hotel anywhere in the world, including third world countries in Asia and central America where they would not hold your bags at the front desk - apparently I had to come to marthas vineyard to find such awful service. Dingy rooms, smelly lobby. I'd rather sleep on the beach, what a rip off.

We were booked into another hotel a full 6 months prior and discovered a few days out that they had misplaced the details. They were kind enough to find alternative accomodation. Unfortunately it was at the Wesley. I'm probably a bit harsh about our experience, given the events that led to our booking here. but anyway. The good - the... More

Yes, that is exactly what the desk clerk with short red hair said to my husband when he complained no one came to clean our room. Our stay was the equivalent of a YMCA hostile but for a whopping $180/night!! I understand the hotel is antique and dated but I at least expected a clean room, hot shower, and a... More

There is a reason why the Wesley Hotel was the only available last minute room in the Vineyard. It's scary! Overall I'm disappointed in the fact that people will still say "they can get away with it", which means they can charge what they want and not renovate. They don't even have the decency to change the 20 year old... More

Dear Steve from Boston, I am sorry that you were disappointed in your stay at the Wesley. In all fairness, you should have mentioned in your review that when you complained at the Front Desk about a noisy air conditioner, you were immediately offered an upgrade to a larger room at no additional charge. Apparently, that wasn't enough and after... More

Well, this place is not very nice. Yes, it's a cool, old Victorian hotel, but the rooms are like a Motel 6. The room is very small, and the Bathroom is basically a powder room with a stand-up shower. The beds aren't comfortable. The carpet has to be 15 years old. There is mold in the shower and the lamp... More
