Top Williamsburg Hotel Reviews

The Colonies at Williamsburg

8/10 Good

"Being a senior citizen, I love the convience of parking and being able to request a first floor apt each time we stay. Always clean, kitchen not stocked well, but just two of us and we cook lightly, but cant imagine a family cooking in the kitchen. We love the pool and hot tub, but booket earlier than usual, hitting labor day crowd. No complaint, kids are kids, we just arent use to them anymore---LOL. My only complaint, yearly is the low toliets. Bad back, two knee replacements, make low ones like you have very hard getting down and up from them. I wish you would replace them, at least to average height or chair height would be even better or install rail or hand grip?"

Comfort Inn Williamsburg Gateway

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is ALWAYS our choice when we come to Williamsburg- Naresh, the manager, makes us feel welcome every single time and always accomodates my handicapped mother. The front desk clerk, I wish I remembered her name, was the sweetest girl and always checked on us. The free breakfast is delicious, the pool was great during the heat wave, and the room was very clean. We have never had a bad stay and we’re already planning our next trip! Thank you for everything, Naresh!"

Days Inn by Wyndham Williamsburg Historic Area
