Since I graduated from W&M, I've always wanted to stay at this place. No doubt it has a great location. But my disappointment started as soon as I arrived. No one outside to tell me where to park or help with bags. Walked in to a long line of people trying to check in with only 1 person working. The room itself was in need of a renovation. The restaurant and bar close early. Not what I expected. I won't be back.

Colonial treat in Williamsburg

The Williamsburg Inn was a very special hotel. The staff are really attentive, the rooms were from another time, and yet up to date at the same time. Beds were comfy and the bathrooms spacious with plenty of hot water. You can park right by the hotel, and are in walking distance of all the Colonial sights as well as lots of restaurants and cafes. We were on a tour staying in 6 hotels and this was by far the best place we stayed in. Would highly recommend if you're visiting the area

The nicest and the fanciest hotel I’ve ever stayed. The building was well kept, with so much history everywhere! The room we stayed was decorated with exquisite regency style, elegant and beautiful. The dinning room was gorgeous, but the food was very mediocre, a bit disappointing. Anyways, what an experience!
