"Average hotel, good for one night"
567rodrigoc, 31 Mars 2024

The hotel was average. It needs some maintenance and renovations. It is conveniently located if you're visiting Williamsburg, the College of William and Mary, or Busch Gardens. We did not have breakfast in there, so cannot comment on the complimentary breakfast.

"Gross Cheap hotel"
ellysiab, 12 Novembre 2023

Kind of gross! The lobby has been updated so you might think this is a nice hotel, but one you get into your room, you will realize that it's a lousy hotel. I wouldn't stay here again. They make you pay an extra $100 deposit, even with a credit card. We paid $130 after taxes...this should be a $70 room. My granddaughter, who is 3, found something "sticky" on the bed skirt. Not something an adult would notice, but a child will find it, of course. Gross! The bed springs will squeak and stab at you all night. And the light fixtures are rusting out. Gross! The pool area needs major renovations. The jacuzzi surface is peeling and has bald spots. The whole hotel smells like chlorine. The pool towels are thin and balding. Breakfast was abysmal. My grandkids ate a yogurt and then I realized they were expired by two weeks! They had apples and bananas, cereal, oatmeal packets, cheap little pastries, and hot scrambled eggs and paper thin steamed bacon. No thanks. We went to Starbucks down the road. Overall, $130 (AARP rate) was overpriced. Location was all right. Lobby was pretty. Staff were friendly. But the amenities are lacking and the room is questionable. The owner needs to attend to the old beds and the rusty light fixtures.

"Outstanding Hotel"
willie1942, 29 Octobre 2023

Hotel is clean with great amenities....friendly staff and great location....breakfast was very good with many choices to choose from....the internet was very good and easy to access....I highly recommend this Best Western hotel.

"As Always BW Excellence"
Dean H, 23 Octobre 2023

We try to stay at BW whenever possible and, except for a very few occasions, have never been disappointed, this one was no different, excellent as usual. BW is our go-to when we travel. We have tried other chains but have not found one that continually provides the service that BW provides, price, cleanliness, comfort, staff, and breakfast. Keep up the good work BW.

"Cheap in every way"
Daniel122023, 22 Octobre 2023

The booking experience was bad. Took three calls to get a confirmation email. Stay were very disengaged. Rooms were damaged, unclean and one shower was clogged. Beds hard with small throw pillows instead of normal pillows.

"DIRTY!!! IN DESPERATE NEED OF A REMODEL!!"
caseymgrubbs, 15 Octobre 2023

First of all, I want to say my husband and I were on our 5 year anniversary and had our expectations set very high. We were excited to get away. This hotel was very dirty, the sheets and pillowcases stained, the floors dirty, trash in the floor, hair in the fridge, mold in the shower, the drain to the tub was broken so we had to call down to the desk to get it fixed. The wallpaper in the bathroom was bubbled up from the moisture in the bathroom (lack of a fan). The breakfast was really the only somewhat positive thing about our visit. Good selection of food. There really wasn't enough space for everyone eating, so we got up and left early from breakfast. This hotel was not worth the 200 plus dollars we spent for two nights... we've stayed in much nicer places for the same price.

"Very clean and Convenient"
c c, 05 Octobre 2023

Close enough to the historical area on one side and the shopping on the other to be very convenient without being over priced. The property is on a main road but back a few hundred yards so it's easy to get around town but the property is quick with no congestion. Staff is friendly and professional , quick to check-in and no issues. A very positive experience

"Shady Transactions"
Chris C, 23 Septembre 2023

Reserved the room on one credit card and checked in with a separate card. Hotel charged us 3 transactions for the stay. 2 full amounts on the reservation card and one on the card we checked in with. How do we get charged 3 times at full price? Plus the refund takes a few days to return. How is this okay!?

"Never go there"
liselottel428, 15 Septembre 2023

Okay, we only payed like a 100 dollars for the four of us. But it was a 100 too much. I don't mind being in a basic hotel, as long as it is clean. This hotel was very very old, dirty, it had a smell as well. The room was full of dust, there was hair on the sofa. Pillows did not have protective cover. The hotel is so old: the lighting, the A/C, the elevators, the carpe, the furniture. We did not have breakfast so we can not review that. But the breakfast area did not looked very clean and the ceiling had humidity spots. We took a peek at the indoor pool, I would not recommend going in there... it looked dirty.

"Cheap but still not worth it"
michelez494, 02 Septembre 2023

The hotel needs to be updated, which I know will come with a price increase for the rooms. Our room suddenly lost power in the evening, just our room. We had to gather our things in the dark and move to another room. That room was so damp that a change purse left by a prior guest (cleaning well?) was all mold. We had issues with light bulbs and toilet handles too. The hotel is very near all major attractions and the staff is friendly. With all the issues we had, I thought a manager would have spoken to us but that did not happen

"Incredibly disappointing"
SecretSKM, 18 Août 2023

The location is perfect. We've stayed at this hotel, before it was owned by Best Western, multiple times. The room was quiet and the beds were fine. The internet was decent. The pool and hot tub are great! These features and the central location are the reason we have stayed here before. That ends with this trip. The hallways, the elevator, all central parts of the hotel were hot. It's August in Virginia. That alone is not a big deal. My concern are the staff and attention to detail. For example, our ice bucket was dirty, coated with something brown and was host to a dead ant. Disgusting. I took it to the front desk so the next person in the room wouldn't have the same problem. The staff did not care. The complimentary breakfast was also beyond underwhelming. I do not think the staff cares about guest experience and it shows.

"Pictures Do Not Match Website"
ronsusgorrell, 07 Août 2023

The hotel was dingy, old, chrome coming off the faucet handles, very dirty air conditioning unit, very old refrigerator and it was tilted and lopsided, very hard to open. We were so tired by the time we checked in or else we would have left and not stayed the one night. The continental breakfast was terrible, hardly nothing there, the few things they did have was cold and to many kids not being supervised by parents and grabbing things that needed to be used by tongues.

"Okay hotel that could be a LOT cleaner!"
dandW5247HQ, 29 Juillet 2023

The hotel is in an area with a great variety of restaurants, ice cream stores, and other hotels. Check-in was easy, and the rooms were comfortable. The only drawback, as other reviews have stated, was the cleanliness of our room. Upon entering, we noticed that some family's little terrors had smeared what appeared to be vanilla ice cream (hopefully) all over the lone window in the room. They had also left a half-gallon of milk in the mini fridge. We called down to the front desk after our first night, and asked that our room be cleaned, and vacuumed. We continued calling the front desk for 4 days until finally, on our last night, the room had been cleaned and the window washed. Since the pandemic, hotels have been using that old excuse that they are short-staffed or that they no longer clean and redo the rooms every day. This is getting old; I would not recommend this hotel if you like a clean room.

"Average best western"
Adam S, 25 Juillet 2023

I stayed here on part 1 of a 6-day trip to the historic triangle, pros-check in was very nice,room had a view, internet worked properly,bathroom was clean, tv works, pool and jacuzzi were nice, close to historic area and other attractions.Cons- beds could be cleaned better (found a few hairs on under parts of sheets), certain tv channels playing other channels programming and breakfast was bad ( messed with my stomach),elevator looked dingy. good for a hotel to rest your head on,but I wouldn't make it your first choice

"The staff allows non guest to use the hotel amenities (pool)"
deet664, 25 Juillet 2023

The staff (Yolanda) allows underage age children staying at another hotel to use the pool and then they steal all the towels and leave. One child would jump the fence in the pool area, run into the hotel and open the side door to let all the children in. I also witnessed 3 adults walk in through the lobby and into the pool area clearly not a guest and when confronted we were threatened that they would "Kick our ass". Do not stay at this hotel!. It is unsafe knowing anyone is allowed into this hotel!!

"Mediocre"
wendyhcarroll, 20 Juillet 2023

Room was not as the pictures portrayed They advertised nice rooms at this hotel at the elevators, but this hotel has old outdated rooms! So disappointed Unruly kids at the pool! I had to involve parents for not monitoring their bad children! It almost escalated!

"Just okay"
Z5844VJcc, 19 Juillet 2023

We stayed one night the room was clean however the fitness area needs needs some serious updates the treadmill was out of order the room smelled of mold/mildew there were no cleaning products to wipe down the machines or weights overall I rate it about a 2.5

"Good place for price"
Gerald F, 12 Juin 2023

I was in Williamsburg for the Veteran's Golf Association Senior qualifier at Ford's Colony and looking for a fair priced place to stay for four days. Best Western made the cut! Nothing fancy but comfortable to stay there. Near some good restaurants all within walking distance. Downtown is 4 miles about 10 minute drive. The pinball machine was a hit!

"Couldn't be better!"
GerriS63_10, 12 Juin 2023

We chose this hotel because of it's proximity to the Visitor's Center. Very convenient and a pretty straight shot driving there. The room was big and comfortable and clean. It contained a fridge, microwave and coffee maker. It was also convenient to several restaurants. The breakfast room was bright and cheerful and could comfortably seat many quests. The food selection was very good.

"Clean and comfortable hotel centrally located"
RayVonArbys, 09 Juin 2023

I did only stay for one night since I was just travelling through. The hotel was clean, quiet and comfortable - just what you expect from a Best Western Hotel. Breakfast was very good with a huge selection of items, only some toast was missing. My room door was jammed; it was not fixed, but they showed me how to open it... Location is great. Just a frew minutes away from Colonial Williamsburg and from the Outlet center. I would definietly come back.

"TAKE YOUR MONEY AND RUN."
DissatisfiedGuest23, 19 Janvier 2023

This hotel not only is dirty and goes without being cleaned for days, but many of the amenities (including the jetted tub) do not function. There are electrical issues throughout the hotel and the heating/cooling system doesn't work properly. This COULD all be forgiven, if not for the atrocious handling of this situation by the incompetent staff. Andrea at the front desk should be terminated immediately for her actions confronting a guest and when the GM was contacted, she brushed off the issue like it did not occur and did not assume a hospitable role in handling the situation. DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL - you will be calling corporate to ask for a refund that will never come if you do.

"I got what I paid for"
dynaman2022, 22 Décembre 2022

A good room for a fair price. Breakfast was what you expect in a hotel, not a restaurant. Plenty of parking spaces. Appeared to be A safe area to stay. Some of the towels needed to be replaced. I would return to this hotel if in town again.

"Good stay for one night"
leahmb757, 12 Décembre 2022

Check in was friendly, rooms were good. Outdated and needs a good deep clean but decent. Our room was right by the side door so we heard the door slamming all night and early morning, hard to sleep. I would request not having a door near an exit. The AC/heat unit was dated, and was hard to get a comfortable temp in the room. Breakfast was good, large variety. Hot tub was great, didn't use the pool but felt warm and was clean. Location was great, we could walk to the Mexican restaurant just 2 minutes away, and colonial Williamsburg was very close.

"Anniversary ruined"
Excursion57723457225, 04 Décembre 2022

Booked a king room w/jetted tub. Paid $175+ on a Saturday night. It wasn't the cheapest, when my husband and I got into the room we were welcomed with a musty smell. The jetted tub didn't work and there was pink mold all over the tile and grout. The bed was so bad, literally just looked and felt like a bed frame with springs. No comfort whatsoever, pillows provided were like rolled up sheets stuffed into a pillow case. Woke up to head to breakfast @ 8:20am. When we got there it was so packed (I guess good for the hotel) there were 30+ people no seats and what was left was frozen jimmy dean breakfast sandwiches which took 2 minutes to cook and we were to cook them ourselves in the ONE microwave provided. My husband and I decided to skip that wait and grabbed breakfast on the road. Pretty disappointed, it was suppose to be our 5 years anniversary and it felt like a waste we should have stayed at home.

"Thanksgiving"
sananda d, 26 Novembre 2022

Our stay at the Best Western was delightful. Travis at front desk checked myself and family in. He was swift and customer service superb. The rooms were clean and we got a good night sleep. Breakfast was good and food was hot. Overall we were happy and will be back again.

"Great location, beds need some work"
Justin S, 14 Novembre 2022

The hotel is nice enough, but the rooms need some updating. The double beds are too small for two people of any size to sleep comfortably. Also, the mattresses are worn out and springy. The TVs also need replacement to a newer, LED flat screen style. The bathrooms are small but functional. Breakfast is decent, but the area is far too small and crowded. More options are needed. Overall, the hotel is OK, but it could be so much better with a little investment.

"Hidden Gem"
willie1942, 30 Octobre 2022

this hotel is close to all you want to see and do in Williamsburg....it is clean and has a very friendiy staff....breakfast is very good and this hotel is a great value for your money....i highly recommend it....

"Cute room & indoor pool hotub was great"
Channelle_Stadler, 26 Octobre 2022

Checked in after a full day at Busch Gardens. I wasn't greeted upon arriving to .the front desk, the gentleman seemed "over it". Check in was quick with no small talk at all. After staying g for 2 nights I wasn't able to get anyone's names. We stayed in a room with 2 double beds. The room was super clean and cozy and cure. The I door pool and hot tub are the reasons I would go back. Breakfast was less than impressive with limited options.

"Roaches in rooms"
nucleshark, 18 Octobre 2022

The front desk staff was wonderful and friendly. And the breakfadt was decent. However, I had to get a room change due to roaches in the first room. The second night of my stay, I spotted a roach in the room I had been changed to. Not staying here again.

"Decent"
rhondacrown, 03 Octobre 2022

Best Western comes through again with caring staff and clean facility. My grandson was in love with the heated indoor pool and had a great time. Breakfast was the usual powder eggs, and sliced thin bacon, coffee weak (but my son is a Starbucks snob).

"Last Resort"
melissalong1113, 25 Septembre 2022

We chose this hotel primarily for location. The staff emphasized cleaning when we arrived. But then said they would not be offering housekeeping, shixh seemed a bit off. With enhanced cleaning I would expect more service, not less. It was very welcoming when you walked in, but once past the main desk it was very outdated. The carpet in the hallways had very bad stains, on all floors. The second floor had an overwhelming Marijuana smell. Someone was having a very exciting party, which fortunately did not funnel into our room but did linger for hours in the hallways. The bed was older and uncomfortable. A spring popped right under me when I sat down. The most frustrating aspect were the sheets and comforter. The pillow cases had holes in them. As did the comforter. Not sure if the pillow cases were burn holes and I have no idea what would have caused the patterned holes in the comforter. All in all, it made my feel as if nothing was sanitary or clean. Breakfast was as expected for a hotel. The setup was poor. Too small of a space for too many guests. The drinks and food were all in the same area so a lot of standing around over one another waiting in line. A huge contradiction to the safety and sanitary paperwork they made us sign at check in.

"great location in Old Williamsburg."
vcgroomwilson, 30 Août 2022

great location and price for the area. huge lobby. very clean . huge rooms. friendly staff. large pool and jacuzi area. plenty of room to park. great breakfast selection. only a mile away from historic area.

"Two nights too many"
rwa_on_the_road, 27 Août 2022

Generally, the building is worn out.  The appearance is lackluster and just hanging on.  The staff was friendly and responsive enough but I believe the facility and resources are a limitation for them.  Did you know there is no ice machine available on the first floor.  Would seem to be the first place to find one especially since food and beverage are served in the area. The biggest complaint from our overall experience was an incident on the second night.  We returned to our room after being gone for the complete day and upon opening the door were overcome by the smell of marijuana smoke.  It was strongest in our room but I also noted it in the nearby stairwell.   I went down to the manager to ask for help and what could be done to find out how this had happened.  I was thinking that maybe a video of our location at the end of a hall with outside walls might be able to prove that is was not in our room as it seemed to be by strength of the smell.  The only remedy was air freshener which after exhausting her search in housekeeping and behind the managers desk she produced her own personal air freshener for us to use. Couple things from that experience.  Number one, the non-smoking status of our room was invalidated and we had to put up with the results of that.  The facility in general does not appear to manage the activities inside and adjacent to the entries well.  Even if the source of the smoke in our room came from outside, how can it be that someone is able to smoke in that area, not to mention smoking pot, for a long enough period to overtake our room with all doors and windows fully closed?  I'll avoid the whole debate of legalized drug usage and simply say that there is an odor associated with pot that can be phrased as "smelling like skunk".  Given that it happened, is the best your management can do in response is provide a personal air freshener and leave it at that? We will be returning to the area for the next few years.  We have no intentions of returning to this hotel nor recommending it.  The resources and limits of the staff's engagement just do not warrant the fee.

"Dirty and roaches "
Nick L, 15 Août 2022

Dirty, roaches, and employees aren't very welcoming. We booked this in combination with Busch Gardens, and honestly we normally book a more star hotel. But this experience underlines for us that we should keep doing that. We checked out one night earlier and booked another hotel in the area. When we said we wanna check out the woman at the reception asked if everything was okay. When I said it wasn't she didn't say or ask anything. She probably understood right away

"Needs TLC"
Marc W, 02 Août 2022

Great location but in need of some serious TLC. Mildewy odor throughout hotel, bathroom faucet leak in room never fixed, room door did not close properly, poor quality breakfast food, hotel hall carpets dirty and not vacuumed. Could be nice place with a little more effort, but affordable and good location

"Comfortable stay and a great breakfast"
Lee_family_219053, 29 Juillet 2022

Very friendly staff. Hotel in a good quiet location. Has an indoor pool and gym. Good WiFi cover in the room and my room even has a jacuzzi tub in the bathroom. Problem was that noise in the corridor echoes into the room and can be noisy w doors slamming and kids running around. Also only 1 lift of 2 works thus causing inconvenience in the morning when everyone is checking out and the chamber maids move between levels with their trolley. Morning breakfast was excellent and comparable to some high end hotels we've stayed in. We reported at check-out we found wasp nesting outside the room window.

"Ok, not great"
Erik W, 12 Juillet 2022

This place needs a little updating. Overall we had a good stay. Just not the best hotel I've ever stayed at. The breakfast area was small and the breakfast hours are only two hours long. There were way too many people trying to get breakfast in such a short time.

"Disappointing"
Rick K, 08 Juillet 2022

Property is showing its age and could use some updating and remodeling. The desk staff was professional, and check-in was smooth. Room was dated and a little tattered, but the room and bathroom was sufficiently clean and comfortable. Would have given this property a higher rating but the breakfast was awful. Mostly very cheap and unhealthy options. Literally no bagels, english muffins, not even any sliced bread. Only cereals available were pop tarts and fruit loops. No fresh fruits- etc., etc. When I asked the attendant if they had any other cereals, she got surprisingly nasty with me, and I do mean rude. We did not eat there. We stay at BW appx. 30 nights a year. This was by far the worst breakfast I've seen. I would not recommend this BW. I will never stay here again.

"leisure"
marilyningrace, 07 Juillet 2022

Our stay was most enjoyable, the staff was professional, caring and accommodating. The hotel is clean, the pool is clean, our room was immaculate, kudos to the housekeeper! The towels, in bed linen were very clean and fresh! The refrigerator is a good size and efficient! The entire dining area is exceptionally clean. The food and service in dining area is amazing! so many choices. A great variety of food to choose from. Cold food was cold, hot food was hot. There was an abundance of food and many options meeting the need for all. The dining area ambience is very nice.

"OK but lack of sleep"
Coaster_Fanatics, 01 Juillet 2022

Stayed as [art of a vacation package with Busch Gardens. Room OK, bed OK, Bath OK. Main problem was lack of welcome from the staff and guests gathering on our floor at all hours. The noise from the gatherings kept us awake until 1am both nights. Breakfast was OK day 1 (we were early) but day 2 nothing left by 8.30am. Wouldn't choose here again.

"Good low cost option "
righteous, 01 Juillet 2022

Great for $80/ night. Mostly clean and secure. We were 2 weeknights and had no issues. Breakfast was a frenzy with everyone jamming in to get free food. Not fun but for the price it was fine. Staff was nice and location great for access to attractions.

"Mini vacation"
Cindy S, 29 Juin 2022

The hotel was clean. The room was clean. The sheets were clean. The pool and hot tub were relaxing. The hotel staff was very polite and accommodating. The area was in a good location. The parking had great lighting and we all felt safe and we checked in.

"Nice stay"
Pamela K, 25 Juin 2022

Nice place. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very organized and well supplied which saved us money. TV remote was hard to use. Lots of places close by. Overall very nice and would go back.

"Just no"
ShariAnn2009, 21 Juin 2022

Stayed 4 nights for trip to Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. No housekeeping due to Covid...STILL?! Each night we had to gather up trash, collect wet towels and throw them outside our room. Had to get clean or new amenities from the front desk, who were rude and annoyed each time. I asked for some towels, and she said "Some towels, what is some towels? I told her how many, then asked for some plastic cups and she said "I don't have any here, go get them over there [pointing to coffee area]" Older gentlemen at breakfast area was always in a horrible mood. No towels in pool area, but did not want to ask any more than we had to so just didn't bother. Just unbelievably and incredibly rude staff all around. Room dated and pillows totally uncomfortable. Will never return.

"overnight stay"
64obx2014, 20 Juin 2022

Rooms were very clean and spacious. Asked for a complimentary toothbrush at the front desk and the desk clerk said they were out of them--really?? The complimentary breakfast was okay. I wish they would have had some bacon and better variety of pastries.

"Lower your expectations and it will be okay"
AverageGuyVA, 19 Juin 2022

JUNE 2022 - Got a good deal on this hotel and had lowered my expectations based on the many reviews I read. Definitely some mixed feelings on this one. - Rooms clean overall but old. Ours had an old smoke stench (didn't seem recent, maybe just built up from years). Sheets were clean, room was good size, microwave/refrigerator - everything seemed to be in working order but you can tell the age. - When they had food, breakfast was pretty good for free - They had one pastry (usually a muffin or sweet roll), apples/oranges, prepackaged oatmeal, and 3 'hot' trays which usually had eggs, either bacon or sausage, and either waffles, pancakes or french toast sticks. Food, when it was there, was pretty good tasting BUT they where CONSTANTLY running out of food. Lines were long and by the time you got to the hot food, not uncommon to have 2 of the 3 pans empty and sometimes the wait was 10-20 minutes to get the next batch of food. I don't know how much of the food they actually make there vs bring it prepackaged - the waffles seemed prepackaged. At one point they brought out an entire bowl of frozen jimmy dean sausage and egg biscuits and there was a long wait for the microwave to even make them edible. All that said, the taste of the food was not bad, but you WILL get frustrated during breakfast. - Lobby where breakfast is located is very nice and updated - Indoor Pool was okay - open long hours from 9am to 11pm, a bit steamy in there as could be expected and usually more crowded in the evenings. There are a couple of arcade games and vending machines before you enter the pool area. - Hotel is right across the street from Ollie's (store) if you need to grab any cheap stuff, and within walking distance to Pirate's Cove Golf course *if* you are willing to cross a relatively busy road (suggest driving just to be safe). - They don't clean the rooms when you stay "due to covid" but I think that's just an excuse to cut down on costs and I think if you stay 5 days or more they will change sheets if you ask them to. - Lots of families and at least 1 bus here, so can get a little noisy in the halls but think this is typical of a vacation town. Would I stay here again? Probably based on price. But you do get what you pay for so don't expect a $200 hotel when you're only paying $100.

"Serviceable"
Stefan C, 05 Juin 2022

For one night on the way to the beach this hotel was ok. I wouldn't want to be there any longer. The room was about the size of the bed. With the crib added we had to have ( the only) chair removed to be able to move. We had to ask 3 times for the crib, and breakfast was 40 people, many with kids, and only one high chair, asking a single overworked young woman if there were more eggs, more butter, more oj, etc. It is a convenient walk into colonial Williamsburg, however, so I'll give it that.

"not wheelchair accessible"
katiejoehoak, 30 Mai 2022

Wheelchair accessible room was not wheelchair accessible. - room size is too small -- too much furniture & too large of a bed for that room to be for a wheelchair user - bed too tall - remove coffee table in front of sofa - grab bars in bathroom are not placed in proper location to be helpful next to toilet or in shower - remove sides on shower chair so individual can transfer safely & sink is too close to transfer safely -- suggest roll in shower - cannot reach heating/ac controls because table is in the way - cannot reach anything on top of tv/microwave area - need lower sink & lower mirror -- couldn't fix my hair because I couldn't see the mirror

"Not worth the money"
afrancis0924, 23 Mai 2022

Cost way too much money for the lackluster place that it was. Rooms were dirty when we got there—there was trash on the floor next to our bed. Room was generally run down and smelled, and the carpet was wet when we arrived. For $10 more per night I should have booked a better hotel.

"Very aged hotel"

Stayed her about 12 years ago... I think the room has exactly the same items in it. Elevators creak and moan, the luggage carts are nearly disassembled, gym equipment is unmaintained, just an over all poor quality hotel. At 23:00 the smoke alarm next door shorted out, causing a high pitched screeching noise to wake my wife and daughter. It was taken care of, but was still hard to resettle. Woke up early the next morning (cause breakfast ends at 9) only to find they were out of food. This WAS a nice hotel, I don't see myself ever booking this again.

"Avoid"
richardstinksatg2022, 04 Mai 2022

We showed up to the hotel after spending the day at Busch Gardens. Upon getting out of the car, we noticed there was loud music playing somewhere at the hotel. I assumed that it was for a party or something in a meeting hall somewhere within the hotel and decided to overlook it. When we checked in no mention was made of any event going on at the hotel. It was close to 11 pm when we finally checked in. On the way to our room we passed several groups of teenagers yelling down the halls to their friends, regardless of the hour. We also passed rooms which were playing loud music and had people shouting in them. When we arrived at our room, the noise was very noticeable and would of made it difficult to sleep. The room itself was in very poor shape and didn't look like it had been cleaned. There were noticeable stains on the comforter and ants in the bathroom. Given the noise from the hall and the state of the room, we decided to spend the night somewhere else.

"Very poor room quality"
Justin S, 25 Avril 2022

The carpet was sticky, the bathroom was so small that you had to squeeze by just to close the door. The shower was dank and the bathtub was gross. The lighting was broken in the room and the A/C was very loud. There was poor sound proofing as well. Finally, the pillows are just awful. They need to do a full renovation.

"Hot Breakfast, heated pool"
family0nvaca, 20 Avril 2022

I was glad there were good breakfast options (no waffle maker, but there were microwaveable breakfast sandwiches). It was better than what I had heard other hotels were doing (like cold pastries or granola bars). The pool was heated and warm enough for me, someone who usually gets cold. There was a hot jacuzzi tub, too. I'd stay here again.

"Took us in on a spur-of-the-moment and did not price gauge. VERY clean!"
markmTOWNE, 19 Avril 2022

They were very friendly and accommodating. We were shocked at the poor condition of the Baymont by Wyndham and would stay in the car before entering that crack house. The BEST WESTERN took us in when we walked in that night. They gave us a great deal on a CLEAN room. The staff even changed the shower curtain during our stay. Rooms are well-stocked and everything worked. Anything untoward would be the direct result of rude, slob-guests. The hotel was always being cleaned and I have OCD when it comes to that. The breakfast was good with plenty of options and the coffee was excellent. Anything messy was not the fault of the staff or hotel. Parking was easy. This is literally right across the street from the horse and oxen paddock that walks you right into the Historic Colonial Area. Could not ask for a better spot for walking! Again, very friendly staff and very smooth operation considering the times we're in.

"Great family hotel right in the middle of everything"
corys298, 15 Avril 2022

Pros- The hotel was very clean and the breakfast was great for kids offering tons of foods. Pool was large and clean. Location is near Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. Tons of restaurants and shopping nearby Cons- no housekeeping due to Covid. Anytime we needed something from front desk we had to go down to the lobby. One night our child got sick and I called for new bedding. I had to run down to get more sheets and they told me they didn't have an extra blankets for a hotel with 120+ rooms

"Jacuzzi only worked 2 out of 6 nights."
rockingtheboat, 04 Avril 2022

The jacuzzi only worked 2 out of 6 nights. The staff was great especially housekeeping. Clean. Close to restaurants and Colonial Williamsburg. Parking is free and there are plenty of spaces. No hidden fees.

"Mini vacation"
Cindy S, 21 Mars 2022

The rooms were very clean and the staff was so nice. The pool was warm and the hot tub was nice. The hotel was really quiet at this visit. The breakfast was great. The Amenities were all there as expected. There was extra towels already in the room and by the pool.

"Basic"
vjones2, 18 Mars 2022

Not the worst but not absolutely amazing either. Lobby was pretty but the rest didnt match up to how it looked. Some things were pretty dated and the lighting in our room was pretty dim in some areas. Most of my annoyance was due to inconsiderate guests who like to be loud, slam doors or smoke right at the entrance to where the smell comes into the hall. The pool was warm and jacuzzi was nice. Just wish they had replenished the pool towels instead of having baskets full of used ones. The staff was incredibly friendly and having warm breakfast options was nice. The bed was comfy and the location was perfect for what where we needed to go. Laundry machines also had an option to pay through an app so no coins were needed (yay!) Vending machines offered a good variety of snacks and oddly enough seemed less expensive than convenience stores. I would stay here again, but maybe request a room not on the first floor or get one away from the back of the building. The trash truck showed up right behind our room at 5:20am which startled my kid out of sleep.

"Very great location in amazing Williamsburg"
micheler260, 14 Février 2022

Me and my husband stayed here for two nights in February 2021. It's in a great location close to Historic Williamsburg, Busch Gardens, Jamestown and Merchant Square. Was very affordable and had a nice pool and a hot tub. There is a Mexican restaurant, Chinese Buffett, Cracker Barrel and more all within walking distance. Would definitely stay again. Shout out to Yolanda at the front desk for being helpful and funny.

"Great place to stay, affordable"
Elisner30, 13 Février 2022

Have stayed here several times when coming to Busch gardens. Perfect place to have a place to sleep without spending a ton. staff are nice, rooms are old but very clean. Free coffee in morning and parking is accessible. Will stay next time I'm in Williamsburg again.

"PLEASENT STAY SNOW DAY"
sananda d, 24 Janvier 2022

I Loved The Hotel . MY Room Was Clean And The Bed Was The Most INVITING. I Slept like A Baby. Breakfast Was Great As WELL. I WILL BE BACK TO STAY REAL SOON. All i can keep saying is that i love the hotel and the staff and i will return in the soon future.

"Adequate Service and Facility"
TYPSUKR, 29 Décembre 2021

We got a good room rate here on a Thursday night (off-season). The hotel was well-run and clean, and we had no issues with our room. The hotel isn't far from all of the tourism sites, particularly Colonial Williamsburg, and it was a convenient location for our trip. There was a standard continental hot breakfast at the hotel; we didn't partake, but we did grab some packaged pastries on the way out in the morning.

"Close to Historic Williamsburg"
plet39, 06 Décembre 2021

My daughter and I spent two nights here on our visit to Historic Williamsburg. The staff was friendly and welcoming and the queen beds were very comfortable. Nice lobby area and breakfast room with decent breakfast selection. This property is about 1 mile from the historic area . . . and WAY less expensive than hotels within the area. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

"Nice Hotel, close to everything"
Upoluhi, 26 Novembre 2021

Hotel was very nice. Clean, comfortable and very accommodating. Just minutes from Colonial Williamsburg, and there's a multitude of restaurants and shopping just around the corner. The free breakfast was adequate. Basic, but good. Would definitely stay here again. They allowed us back three hours after we checked out so my son could change into his dress uniform in the lobby bathroom as he was about to report for duty in Yorktown.

"Friendly Staff"
jennykuhn32, 15 Novembre 2021

My son and I stayed for three nights. Decent hotel for a decent price. Wonderful staff. Great location. The only bad thing that I can think of is that breakfast was only served from 7am-9am. I just grabbed to go items and brought back to my room for when my son woke up. Otherwise, great hotel.

"Terrible breakfast, dirty pool, and no maid service/fresh towels etc."
TarynNBK, 14 Octobre 2021

The hotel added an extra 100 deposit(?) that they didn't even tell me acknowledge. Still waiting for that to resolve and front desk staff was no help. Pool/hot tub felt grimy There for three days and had no maid service. Room had a musty smell Worst breakfast--all microwave and very little options

"Friendly staff and great location"
klohara, 13 Octobre 2021

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and bed was comfortable. Outdated furniture needs replaced. Saw ants in the bathroom multiple times. Housekeeping could be a little more thorough when vacuuming. Jetted tub in room was noisy but was great to relax in after a long day.

"Always a Great Place to Stay"
judybB813RD, 28 Septembre 2021

We have stayed at this Best Western numerous times in the past and always stay there when we are in the Williamsburg area. It has always been clean and the staff has always been great. It appears that they have done many renovations since the last time we were there and it is even nicer than we remember with the modern upgrades to the rooms and lobby area. The location is perfect so that you can conveniently got to Colonial Williamsburg, plus there are numerous restaurants within walking distance and Putt Putt Golf. I would highly recommend this hotel.

"2day birthday stay"
tpoundsbrooks, 24 Septembre 2021

Positive: Staff is kind, friendly& knowledgeable about area. Pool & jacuzzi is nice. Negative: could have had better breakfast selection or should have been told its frozen food items like Jimmie Dean

"Great Stay "
887taylors, 20 Septembre 2021

We did a bundle deal through Busch Gardens with this hotel and it was great! We just needed somewhere for 2 nights. Staff was friendly both check in and check out. Offers free breakfast and though we didn't try it, the area looked nice and a good variety. The room was really clean, came with a mini fridge, microwave and decent sized tv. Only gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I wish the beds were a little softer and same with the pillows. Also wish we got the king instead of 2 doubles cuz they were very small. They also offer an option for celebrating stuff but I'm not sure why because we put that we were and nothing happened. Not necessarily a negative, just was confusing. Overall a great stay and was definitely great for the price

"In Room Jacuzzi was NASTY"
Connector67120712776, 13 Septembre 2021

A week of family vacation in WMBG started with a filthy in room Jacuzzi. It was supposed to be an upgrade. In reality, a walk in shower would have been better. Obviously the cleaning left much to be desired. After filling the jacuzzi with water and adding a few drops of Dawn dish soap to the water, I ran it for 10 minutes before draining it. The bottom of the white tub looked like someone sprinkled a large amount of pepper on it. The mattress was very uncomfortable for both myself and my spouse.

"Depends on your requirements"
LightPacker58041, 09 Septembre 2021

The location is good, there are many decent to good places to eat within 15 minutes. Close enough to Busch gardens to be ok, not really close to American Revolutionary museum and other historical sites My problem is with the hotel itself. Yes, it has an indoor pool and yes it serves breakfast ..the menu is limited The room is another concern, we left some food on the fridge and 2 hours later there was a swarm of ants around the food. i freaked out, the moved us to another room but the damage was definitely done. The A/C unit is LOUD, the walls thin so noise is relatively high in the room. The beds are only fair, the bathroom is small and the carpet is starting to age. And, the maids never touched the room in 4 days, 3 nights. i had to ask for towels (thin) daily, i stopped asking for any service, just lived with it. For the price, really its worth it. However, if you live a little larger, i would strongly suggest spending a bit more and getting into a higher grade hotel.

"Don't stay here if you value your money and health"
D5545JDadamn, 07 Septembre 2021

My girlfriend and I stayed here after seeing it on Williamsburgvacations.com and it was a great deal, we found out it was after a bit of time. Day 3 of our 7 day stay we found a roach in our room (209) at around 10pm and we decided it would be best to move. I went down the front desk and the night manager named Yolonda was just plain rude and didn't care to get off her phone watching Netflix. I asked if there was staff to clean the room or pick up the roach and I was told no one is available until morning. She stated "she was the only one there" so I asked for another room. The other room was on the same floor, room 224, and once I entered the room, the room smelled musty and had mold on the furniture and fabric. Clearly no one took care of the room recently. I went back down to the front desk and requested another room, I was given an attitude asked "what is the problem with the room?." I requested another room showing the pictures of the room and the mold. I received another room on the first floor, room 104, this room was the worst of them all, the room was renovated and hasn't been used in some time. I could tell based on the carpet change from the rest of the building and it all looked old. Never get a room on the first floor. Finally I asked for a twin queen room and was given room 203. The room was decent, but not as good as the first room, also had a broken fridge. Next morning I spoke with the day manager Lisa and she was much more friendly and assisted me offering room service and the original room back, we took it. Lisa was amazing to say the least compared to Yolonda. Turns out after doing some research Will Wyatt Hotels LLC(the Best Western) also owns WilliamsburgVacation.com, which are both run by Shannon Hartig. This woman offers vacation packages not from best western, but for her own hotel that she buys the royalty rights to use the name. I'm not staying here again and no one should either, just stay at the Comfort Inn down the street, it's not that much more and I'm sure it's standards for roaches and mold are better. Just don't stay here.

"Probably the worst BW we have stayed at."
Gilly1961, 06 Septembre 2021

Not a good experience! First impression was good as reception area clean, bright and modern. Rooms are dark and dated. We were given a room with an adjoining door and on the first night when guests checked in next door in the early hours we had three nights of a dog barking, boys yelling at each and loud tv until around 2 am ish. I called the front desk only to be told that the dog was a service dog (not sure this was true due to behaviour), the hotel was busy so told to deal with it! I asked if a manager would be available in the morning and he said he was the manager. Breakfast area was mobbed! The area is far too small for the size of hotel when busy. They have reduced the breakfast hours by an hour so everyone has less time. We avoided two of the mornings as the queues were mental. The beds were comfy but the pillows horrid and lumpy. We also witnessed a member of staff being abusive to a guest in front of children in the main lobby area! The girl on reception apologised to us for having to witness it. The patio area by the pool was locked so you couldn't use it to eat outside in the evening. The receipt differs from what you are charged as they charge a tax that doesn't show on your bill. Pool is nice as is the hot tub but not worth 3 nights lack of a sleep. Only one of the 2 elevators working during our whole stay, but as our room was on the 2nd floor we could use the stairs and avoid the wait.

"Very clean hotel and great location"
Pam T, 24 Août 2021

Very clean hotel and minutes away from all the great things to see in Williamsburg. Staff was super friendly and had a nice indoor pool and hot tub which the kids liked. Would stay again at this location.

"Dirty Room"
MBeacham, 23 Août 2021

Definitely fell short on my BW expectation. The bedding was definitely dirty and hadn't been changed from prior guests that stayed in the room. A gross, hair wrapped hair tie was on the bedside table and a plastic knife was under the desk. It was obvious the room was just quickly “straightened up” rather than being thoroughly being cleaned after the last guest stay.

"Filthy bed comforter"
nls122, 22 Août 2021

Dirty comforter, no extras because ALL 16 others had been given out. Breakfast was packed with very few masked people walking around. Visited during a sharp rise in the Delta variant and expected more modifications. Expected prepackaged items we could grab and go.

"Worth the price"
MickyS95, 18 Août 2021

Stayed for a mini-vacation. They do not provide any housekeeping. Full trash bags and wet towels lined the halls. The housekeepers do pick up those but they don't replace towels or garbage bags. Got the room across from the ice machine, between it and the screaming kids in the hall=no sleep. For the price it would have been OK if the housekeeping issues were addressed

"Good clean hotel."
FellowTraveler639282, 17 Août 2021

Good clean hotel This hotel is older but has been mostly renovated. There are still some outdated aspects of it such as the rugs and the doors/door jams are the old metal style. However our room was impeccably clean and comfortable. Our bathroom had been almost completely renovated minus the tub. The mattresses were comfortable and fairly new. The common areas of the hotel we're also clean. We did not eat the hotel breakfast but in passing by it looked to be the standard hotel breakfast fare. This was a father-son vacation and the hotel was perfect for this. We stayed for four nights in five days to visit Bush Gardens and water country. Had my wife been with us, she wouldn't have been completely satisfied but still she would've been comfortable. She has grown accustomed to staying at more upscale places which she does deserve. I would not hesitate to stay at this hotel again. Perfect location to the amusement parks, food, etc. There is also a Pirates Cove Mini golf across the street along with a Cracker Barrel restaurant, a Mexican restaurant, and a few others.

"I at least expected and breakfast and privacy"
kelvinnorwood5, 17 Août 2021

Before booking this hotel I stated that I have a service dog. I brought all of the necessary paper work for my service animal. At check in they were reminded again about my service animal. I put a privacy do not disturb on my door for many reason including the fact of me having a service animal. The morning of check out I get a knock on the door (that has a privacy do not disturb sign) I'm unsure who's at my door bc there is no uniform present. She then tells me pets are not allowed. I told her this is my wife's service dog. She then asked well why at service does the dog provide. My wife comes to the door and inform this person (who is now known to be a staff member) the services that are provided and she walks away saying ok. 1. This was addressed at check in 2. You could have called my room respecting the fact that I have a do not disturb sign up 3. There was no introduction to whom you are, no uniform or anything. Just completely unprofessional. Now on to Breakfast review. There were biscuit sandwiches which had NO non-pork options, not even an egg and cheese biscuit. The hand sanitizer was out, with the amount of guest coming in and out of the area, not having hand sanitizer is unexceptionable. Breakfast hours were 7-9 but when we went down a little after 7 the breakfast wasn't out and 25min before 9 they were taking up breakfast items. However I did speak with a front desk member (Yolonda) about the staff taking up the breakfast items early and she apologized on the staffs behalf offered to grab me anything if I needed it. Overall if customer service was improved and there was better communication between staff about guest with service animals. I would give it another try. Things that could have been better in the room would be the cleanliness of the tub. It was disgusting. Also there was black residue on the sheets not sure if it was a stain or not.

"Busch Gardens Vacation"
brendeck, 14 Août 2021

Overall the stay was good...i have stayed in this hotel before and had a much better stay. I do understand with Covid it changes everything, but i feel it could have been better. The room was average, and we could hear the next room every time they showered or used the restroom. The staff was very friendly and helpful when needed.

"Decent for price"
brooklynichols, 12 Août 2021

The beds were not the most comfortable but were decent. The walls must have been super thin but overall we enjoyed our stay. The area was close to all the historic stuff but traffic wasn't ridiculous so that was also nice.

"OK place to stay"
Marilinda69, 09 Août 2021

Stayed here for two nights while visiting family. Checked in after midnight. The room was big, clean and bed was comfortable. Only problem was the LOUD air conditioner. There was no way to turn the fan off and no way to quiet it or stop it so it meant lying awake for a long time. Second night followed a day filled with activities so slept better. No maid service. The breakfast room is very cute and lots of tables but also lot of people. I didn't like the individually wrapped Jimmy Dean biscuit sandwiches or the "eggs", but perhaps others do. There were other choices such as cereal and yogurt. Would stay here again were it not for the loud AC.

"Last Minute Getaway"
erinlX4255EG, 07 Août 2021

This was a last minute end of summer overnight for our family of three. We had no issues at all with our stay. Room was clean, Wi-Fi was fast, service was great, location was ideal, and pricing was very reasonable. What more could you ask for?

"Skeptical stay, but a good one"
Marcia H, 07 Août 2021

Don't get me wrong, it is a nice place to stay. It has all of the basics, including a fridge (with an actual freezer compartment) and a microwave. There was plenty of room in the bathroom and the room doesn't fee like it was cramped with furniture, as with some newer hotels these days. However, it's time to update the rooms with this hotel, too. The beds were comfortable, but I couldn't help noticing everywhere I looked, the rest of the furniture was somewhat mixed-matched. Now, if you don't care about stuff like that, then you'll love this hotel. I only care because when I see furniture that old and that mixed matched, it makes me worry about that things I can't see and don't want to see. The good news is I didn't find any dust balls in the corners of the room and it passed the white sock test, meaning the dark carpet was clean. The pictures of the lobby are pretty accurate, but I can't speak about the rooms because we didn't stay in a room that looked like the picture. One thing that's a plus is the areas was very quiet around the hotel. You can walk down the street to the Cracker Barrel and there was an Mexican restaurant that was always busy = good food. I liked the pool area and the hot tub, but there were a lot of families when we stayed, so we didn't get too much time there. We also didn't get a chance to check out the fitness room, but we noticed there were people in there, too. One thing is for sure, if they updated the rooms like they updated the lobby and other areas, then this would be a really nice hotel. We chose this hotel because of the price and 4-star rating. As I've stated before, if the things I care about don't bother you, then you'll love to be here. At the end of the day, I was just thankful I had a clean place to lay my head. Some other things to keep in mind: your room will not be serviced unless you request it and once again, three travels and we get a set of towels for only two people.

"Nice and Friendly place"
jandk819, 01 Août 2021

Only stayed one night but room was clean and comfy. Due to ongoing pandemic, room service was by request only but they were able to provide anything needed at the front desk. Breakfast was limited but the attendant there was super helpful and friendly. Check in and out was easy and fast. Didn't have time to use the pool but I peeked in and saw a nice hot tub too!

"Great Value"
haughtcd, 31 Juillet 2021

Hotel was affordably priced ($105) compared to other hotels in area. Room was clean and spacious. On-site parking and indoor pool. Room was definitely dated, but no cosmetic issues (furniture, fridge, carpet, paint, we're all fine). If you're looking for a functional hotel reasonably priced this is recommended. If you want to spend more money for a hotel that looks newer stay somewhere else, but this hotel is clean and does the job.

"Great location & stay"
juliafree122, 22 Juillet 2021

I can not begin to express how happy my family was with our stay at this Best Western in Williamsburg. I had previously book another hotel for our stay but had stumbled across a review that had me cancel the other and book this hotel immediately and it did not disappoint. From walking in, the front desk was courteous, friendly and helpful. We arrived early, our room was not ready and the gentleman at the front desk verified my number so he could call when it was available. Which was only about 45 minutes later. Our room was clean, AC worked great, beds were comfortable and TV had enough channel options that my 1 year old could watch Disney, my 12 year old could watch Cartoon Network and my husband could watch the news- we even caught a movie one night. Wi-Fi was not an issue for connection. The room features a refrigerator and microwave that came in handy. Breakfast was 'modified' and our orders had to be placed the night before, only 1 morning was there trouble locating our bag, but the staff was able to get all of our requests together quickly. The lobby coffee was, hotel coffee but not terrible. The location of the hotel was convenient to Historic Williamsburg and the main road where many restaurants and stores are located. The only situation we encountered was having to ask front desk for more towels and we were only originally provided with 1 soap (as we did not have the room cleaned each day to replenish). Overall great experience and if we ever were to visit the area again, would not think twice to stay at this location.

"Awesome staff and rooms"
ChristineG3750, 28 Juin 2021

This place was great! From check in to check out. Alexis at the front desk is the best! After coming in late from a horrible hotel we were tired and cranky and Alexis cared enough to help make our stay here wonderful Thank you all for a great rested night!

"Great night's sleep, great stay!"
LaraJL1972, 15 Juin 2021

The staff at the front desk were friendly and welcoming every time we spoke to them. I asked for extra packets of coffee for the last day (I needed more than decaf), and the clerk set them aside for me to pick up when I came back that day. Every employee we passed in the halls gave us a cheerful greeting. The room was comfortable and roomy for my son (age 18) and I. There was a nice desk and quite a few places to plug in electronics to charge (in the desk itself, in the lamps). The beds were firm. I cannot comment on the pillows, because I brought my own, but my son said they were uncomfortable (our only complaint). There was a mini-fridge and microwave in the room, and the air-conditioner worked well. There was good hot water in the shower and the water pressure was excellent. My favorite part of the room was the size of the bathtub...I'm a bit wide in the hips and had more than enough room to soak in the tub. My son was happy to see a hot tub and pool. He enjoyed the pool, however, he said he could not stay in the hot tub because the chemicals were so strong they stung his eyes. We did not take advantage of the few breakfast options. I understand that during COVID options are limited, but some fresh fruit would have been nice. The location was amazing, five minutes from Colonial Williamsburg and about five minutes from a variety of restaurants.

"Great Hotel Stay Experience during 2nd pandemic summer"
Lori B, 12 Juin 2021

We were happy to learn this facility had opened their indoor poor (and jacuzzi) to their guests. The lobby and our room have been renovated/ updated. We especially appreciated the flexibility the hotel provided for a late check out, in spite of their busy full-capacity status, which allowed us to sleep in a bit on our check-out day, and not rush, which helped us remain relaxed and low stress for our road trip home. Thanks for that welcome accommodation!

"Worst Stay at Best Western, ever."
hasinpatel, 30 Mai 2021

My wife and I decided to visit Williamsburg, VA for the first time during memorial day weekend. We have been very loyal to the Best Western brand during previous vacations. My wife actually has back problems for which she is on medication and the beds were very uncomfortable, in fact it caused alot of back pain for her and she had to take pain meds. Additionally, the tub and sink had plumbing issues. And the tub was extremely dirty.

"Anniversary Weekend Getaway"
scottandmaryb, 12 Avril 2021

I had a great weekend! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our toilet in our room would not flush when we got in our room and when we went to the front desk to report it they had somebody up there right away to fix the problem. We were very impressed at how fast and nice the guy was who fixed the problem. The only complaint we had in the bed was very hard. Other than that we loved the hotel. We will definitely be back but we just hope the next bed sleeps a whole lot better!

"Best hotel experience so far!"
TamiBlaze, 11 Avril 2021

Our family of 6 stayed from 4/5-4/9 2021, and had a wonderful stay here. Check in was a breeze and all of the staff were very friendly helpful, as well as accommodating to whatever we needed. I honestly expected less when it came to available amenities due to the pandemic, but was pleasantly surprised to see the pool, hot tub, and gym open for guests. We have summer passes to Busch Gardens and will definitely be booking our rooms here whenever we come to use them.

"Nice"
tashacurry26, 19 Mars 2021

Property was nice and clean. Rooms were a nice size and also clean. Staff was friendly. Location was convenient to local stores and restaurants. I would definitely stay again. We are currently planning an upcoming trip.

"Clean, comfortable, wonderful staff"
kaitlynlawson11, 07 Mars 2021

Checking in was smooth, & warm. The woman at the front desk was so helpful & kind. Our room was clean & comfortable. I appreciated the updates they've done to the decor & LOVED the lighted mirror in the bathroom. We used the pool in our second night, it was clean & spacious enough that it was very easy for us to maintain social distance. Will be staying here again

"Great Stay and Nice Staff"
P4273HU, 23 Décembre 2020

The staff at this property are very kind and professional folks. My experience told me that they truly care about the experience their guest have at their property. The hotel is kept immaculate, it is in a peaceful surrounding and there is a breakfast offered. The young man that checked me in was so nice and considerate to my pickiness. I wish I caught his name so that I could reference him directly. Thank you for having me as a guest and providing me with an exceptional experience.

"The clientele you pay for..."
F5785HJluigib, 07 Décembre 2020

The Good Close to everything Friendly staff Clean $56 for King room The Bad Hallways routinely smelled like drugs Covid breakfast stinks (You can't get decent food,but you can self coffee and OJ with no mask compliance???) guest with no mask yelling he's dehydrated while asking about weed and what time the liquor store opens on a Sunday morning. Staff said nothing and laughed!! Bed was badly worn and hard Room and hallways are too dark Sofa in room was really soft and uncomfortable Staff takes no ownership of problems that are evident. Example...Large Christmas decor out front laying on its side and the continued to walk past it for 2 days and don't attempt to right it. Overall it's a one and done. I couldn't stay again if it was for free!

The hotel staff was amazing. They were always so nice and friendly. The room was a normal size and the area was quiet. The pool is large and the hot tub is very hot! The pool area was clean and the kids had fun there. While I really have no complaints about the stay and I would definitely stay here again, there are a few things that need to be updated or tended to. In the room, the couch that is a pull out sofa is pushed up against the wall and the air conditioning unit sticks out too far for the bed to actually be pulled out. (See photos) We had to pull the couch out in order to pull the bed out. Upon pulling the bed out we found that it wasn't cleaned and there was loose candy in it. I also found someone's deodorant under the couch. The only other problem area was the hallway to the pool. Again, see photos, the ceiling tiles are very black and moldy. Overall, I still rated this a 4 out of 5 because they were nice, the place was quiet and I felt safe. A few minor things, but definitely would stay here again.

"Great Location!"
merry65heart, 24 Novembre 2020

This hotel is located on Richmond Road in Williamsburg and is literally minutes from nearly any destination you might be interested in visiting. The hotel was clean and comfortable with friendly staff members. It is also very close to several great restaraunts.

"Bed Bugs!"
BrittButler, 04 Novembre 2020

The only reason I am giving this review any stars is because of the helpful and patient staff at the front desk and the amenities available, which I was unfortunately unable to use. I arrived a few nights ago for a 3 week business trip and I checked into my room and noticed the main light inside the room was not working only leaving me able to use the lamps and bathroom light, I was moved into another room to find a very similar issue but the light was very dim and flickering non-stop, as I finally settled into a new room I noticed a bug on my laptop case and killed it immediately. After finding the bug, I quickly inspected the bed and pull out couch. I did not see any signs of bed bugs at this time but as I was beginning to wind down after eating dinner, I noticed a few bugs crawling on the pull out couch with several more starting to come out of the couch crevices. Luckily, my luggage with my clothes was still by the front door but my bag with my laptop/tablet/work materials was on the other side of the couch, which I quickly pulled off. I moved all of my belongings into the hallway and notified the front desk showing them pictures I had taken. They offered to move me to another room again (the 4th room within a few hours), but this time on the 3rd floor rather than the 4th floor like my previous rooms. The staff was very patient with me, as I have never had to complain about a room or switch rooms before and I travel at least once a year. I did check out of the hotel that night after receiving confirmation for other hotel arrangements from my company. Upon investigating with a friend who owns an extermination company, these were definitely bed bugs. It has been several days and I have had no signs of bringing them with me, however I can't help but be extremely paranoid and stressed about the situation and am constantly itching and feeling like bugs are crawling all over me (I have not been bitten). Due to finding a bed bug on my laptop case, I did throw out my luggage and backpack as I have no way to wash or treat them effectively any time soon knowing pesticides do not always work and worried a hungry traveler or even eggs could be hiding somewhere. Regardless, I have been spraying everything daily, washing all of my clothes each night, and keeping my items in trash bags hoping to kill anything that could have come with me. It has been 3 days since the encounter, and luckily I have yet to see any evidence of them coming to the new hotel with me. I have never experienced anything like this in my life, nor ever had a bad hotel experience. However, I do feel that I need to share this with everyone for future reference. The hotel itself did not seem terrible and I know there can be issues, but bed bugs is where I draw the line. I am upset that the staff did not seem surprised or bothered, did not apologize at all, and did not attempt to try to keep me at their hotel after I discussed finding another hotel elsewhere. Again, I was booked here for 3 weeks. If you stay here, please check your rooms thoroughly!!

"Time for some updates"
andrew r, 07 Octobre 2020

Pros-kind helpful front desk staff Close to everything Good w COVID cleansing Cons- No exhaust fan in bathrooms!! Gets hot and humid in room. Pool ceiling is rusting and really looks bad Grab and go breakfast was pretty low quality but necessary due to COVID. Probably try another place the next time I am in town in the hopes of something a bit better, but this would do in a pinch.

"Poor Breakfast and Broken Internet"
149jay, 04 Octobre 2020

Breakfast sandwich was horrible tasting. Threw them away and went to McDonald's. Internet worked first day and was down the second day. Front desk either didn't know how to reset it or didn't want to bother. Told me to call 800 number. I just gave up and used my phone. Also very uncomfortable chair and table for use of my laptop. Chair also too low and table too high.

"A Property I wish we avoided"
Holly S, 12 Septembre 2020

From the checkin to the checkout I have nothing I could find positive to share. I wanted to leave this property before even finishing my checkin. We will not stay here again. I wish I could blame our experiences on COVID but I couldn't.

"hotel stay"
larry m, 07 Septembre 2020

been staying at this hotel for many years,rooms have always been clean,beds and pillows nice and soft and clean,hotel in good location, for sights and restaurants,staff always nice and helpful.would tell everybody to stay here.

"Very Nice"
ocgrammy, 20 Janvier 2020

This was a very nice hotel, very clean, the food was wonderful and everyone was very friendly. The rooms were great. Would stay there again. Not far from the park either. There are also a lot of restaurants on that strip, near the hotel.

"Decent stay"
heathernicole1122, 17 Janvier 2020

Lobby was absolutely beautiful. Decor was nice. Front desk service was awesome. Very friendly. Room was ok. Bed was nice. Pool and hot tub could be cleaner and hours could be longer because that's the reason we picked this hotel.

"Great Place to Stay"
johnr1812, 03 Janvier 2020

The room was clean a good size and well-appointed. The beds are comfortable and the breakfast was great. Our only glitch was a room lock that didn't work, but that issue was very quickly corrected. It is very close to the Williamsburg Village, which was our main interest. It is also close to many other attractions. The restaurants nearby are good and can cater to many tastes.

"Great stay!"
Brian N, 03 Janvier 2020

Friendly and helpful staff. Above average breakfast. Great location in Williamsburg. Kids loved the indoor pool and hot tub. Booked the multiple night package and stayed 5 nights between Christmas and New Year. Excellent value for the price and would choose this hotel again.

"Great stay!"
Getaway03856352822, 26 Décembre 2019

Clean. Decorated nice, staff is friendly, internet good, pool clean, jacuzzi nice and warm and clean. The food os good and servers are very nice. The check in staff very pleasant. I was with my 9 years old grandson, we felt safe.

"Christmas vacation"
R2010UUkimr, 26 Décembre 2019

Tge hotel is located in a great area, many restaurants close to the historic triangle and Busch gardens. The room was a nice size, as for the bed. It needs new mattresses, the sheets were very rough as were the towels. There was a refrigerator and microwave and small coffee pot. The morning breakfast was not very appealing and did not go back to have breakfast. It was reflective of the price but if we return to Williamsburg, will visit another hotel.

"Not doing this again but thank you for the opportunity"
9raelynn, 24 Décembre 2019

I did not like how when I called to check on my reservations Vanessa whom answered the phone was speaking over me and did not fully let me express my thought. Then when I called corporate Thaddus advised me I should not put in my complaint to the hotel for they have the right to refuse my service before my stay due to me escalating my complaint to corporate. Next when I checked in Steven was awesome gave me military discounts that I did not no I was eligible for as well as informing me of the gift card I would recieve due to my stay. Check in was the best experience of my stay. When I went to check out Lisa was okay I was only confused because the refund Steven told me I would get she informed me I would be getting half of that and then when I recieved my gift card it did not cover the 2 nights I stayed. My family normally does Marriott or Hiltons I think I will stay with those businesses for I never had this many issues with my funds and a hotel before.

"Good Place"
aseltz23, 20 Décembre 2019

We stayed here while on vacation going to Busch Gardens for Christmas Town. The hotel was nice but a little out-dated. We went to the hot tub and it had looked like it had been neglected for some time. The receptionist was nice and friendly. I would recommend this hotel for a one night stay but not anything longer.

"Williamsburg Other Attraction!"
lindadG6092IJ, 16 Décembre 2019

If you're planning a visit to Colonial Williamsburg and want a wonderful experience while staying in the area, then this hotel is definitely for you. Beautiful lobby and rooms. Cooked hot breakfast for guests and an amazingly professional staff. You will make this hotel your place to stay on each return visit to the area!

"Restful moment"
deboranmichaelatkins, 02 Décembre 2019

It was a very nice stay for getting rest always enjoy the hot tub and warm pool. The staff was good I also love the warm chocolate chip cookie. The hotel had beautiful Christmas decorations which made it festive

"Average rooms, awful staff"
Sarah F, 02 Décembre 2019

Pros: Rooms were adequate especially for the price. The pool was decent- kids had a blast there. It was not crowded and there were plenty of towels available and great hours. Location was great for finding places to eat/needing to get to Busch Gardens and other tourist spots. Cons: The high speed internet was subpar and most sites would not load. Breakfast was overcrowded and mediocre/cold food. The staff was awful. With the exception of maybe one or two people over our 2 nights stay, everyone was miserable. They acted like you were a bother or in the way and were not at all friendly or cordial. We had 3 rooms for our family. All 3 rooms had issues with the key cards not working for the moment we checked in. Sometimes, if you held it at just the right angle, we could get the strip to work. We did have to call the office for help a few times when after 20+ tries we just could not get them to work (they were kept in their sleeves the entire time we had them but the strips were very worn). On one of those occasions when we called the office for help, someone begrudgingly came up. He unlocked the room door, handed over a new room key and left without uttering a word to us. That was pretty much the standard for staff interaction for the length of our stay.

"What we needed..."
DobbsHLD, 01 Décembre 2019

My children and I stayed here over Thanksgiving. It was good for us and gave us what we needed for a budget friendly trip. The staff was super friendly and helpful! From the front desk staff to the breakfast attendants, all very helpful and happy! I knew that I wasn't staying at a fancy hotel when I made these arrangements so I expected there to be a level of disappointment. I cleaned to pool a couple times before my kids swam. The room wasn't spotless but it was okay. Two nights in, our heater blew up and our room immediately filled with smoke. They came right away and gave us keys to our new room (4th floor), which was much nicer and cleaner than our first room on the 2nd floor. Grateful it wasn't worse! The continental breakfast was okay but the crowd over the holiday overwhelmed the small space and we often had to eat standing up or if we were lucky, on the couch. There is cereal and bagels and such. Bacon and sausage, fake scrambled eggs and either pancakes, home fries or French toast sticks. I noticed a ton of pancake houses on Richmond road which may have been a better choice for me but my kids seemed five with their breakfast choices. They swam a lot so the pool must have been warm enough for them! :) This hotel is very conveniently located. It's easy to get to restaurants and CW. There is plenty of parking and I felt safe traveling alone with my children.

"One Night Stay"
girds24, 22 Novembre 2019

The staff was very accommodating. The hotel was very clean, breakfast was great. Located in walking distance to a few good restaurants..Rocco's Smokehouse Grill is locally owned and Great food! This is the third time I've stayed here and I will be back in another 3 months! Greg Girdler

"Not the best visit "
dianepH2413XD, 07 Novembre 2019

We have used this best western before. It has always been ok. But no complaints. This time our room was a little outdated . Wallpaper, light switches, tub .. the rooms usually have a funny smell but this time it was not good. And we came into the room with a ozone generator running!!! Probably for awhile. I was not happy. I wonder if anyone else knows if all hotels use these machines. Was there a reason it was in this room? Was the terrible smell from this being ran too long?????If hotels do use them, the public should be notified. The evening front desk said that they didn't know anything about it. The morning check out person said they are used if needed!!!! I am only posting this to see if anyone else has ever had this happen in this or any other hotel.

"Check cleanliness"
mpingram76, 04 Novembre 2019

Checked and was doing my check of the room and I found visible hairs in tub, sink area and on toilet. Called to front desk and was promptly moved. Next room was somewhat cleaner than first, but I used Lysol wipes on everything and sprayed Lysol on sheets and bedclothes.

"Getaway to Williamsburg Va"
RobinoftheOzarks, 23 Octobre 2019

My husband and I recently took a trip to Williamsburg Va for a week. Booked rooms along the 16 hour drive and then at our destination but without a doubt had the best rest at the Best Western in Williamsburg. Check in was easy which was good because we were both tired from the journey. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout the stay. Our room was clean (I am paranoid about little creepy crawlies and checked the mattress only to find beautiful clean fluff)and comfortable. The services were accomodating especially with our busy sightseeing schedule. The central location of the hotel was amazing and navigating to historic sights and even dining and shopping was a cinch. We were also impressed with the reasonable price of the room, especially being in a tourist town. I am planning on coming to VA again and will only book at this hotel. I recommend the Best Western hotel in the Historic District of Williamsburg Va !

"Terrible - MAGGOTS in bed!"
Sarah O, 09 Octobre 2019

I would definitely not recommend this hotel for a few reasons: - When we first checked into our room, there was a pair of someone else's socks in the room. The room looked clean and I didn't want to be "that guest," so I just threw them away. - The second night we were there, someone near us was smoking pot. I have no issue with other people's choices, but it turned our entire hallway into a hotbox and I didn't want my kids breathing that in. When we reported it to the desk, there resolution was to spray air freshener... did not help the drugs going into people's lungs. - The third day, we took the privacy hang-tag off of our door, so it could be cleaned. The room looked clean, but when we sat on the bed, we found a MAGGOT on the comforter! I called the front desk and they changed the sheets, but there was no apology...they pretty much acted like this was normal (which is super alarming). Overall, this hotel had unclean facilities and completely apathetic staff. I will never be returning to this hotel.

"Mini vac"
Cindy S, 05 Octobre 2019

The hotel was really clean and nice. The beds were clean and the rooms were very clean. The front desk staff was very nice and very helpful on things to do and places to visit while we were in Williamsburg.

"Could have been a 5"
Jim M, 29 Septembre 2019

This could have been a 5, but our tv did not work and the internet was super slow. The pool temperature and hot tub temperature was just right for an older person like me. Some may find it too warm, but for me it was just right. Facility is about 2 miles away from Colonial Williamsburg, but there is plenty of free parking at the visitor's center and from there a short walk to the Colonial section of town. We would stay here again. It would be nice if they accepted pets, but I know some do not. Staff was extremely friendly. Breakfast was typical, but did help to get the day started off until lunch. We would stay here again, if we travel without our dog. Oh, almost forgot, the heating/cooling system in our room (200) was too noisy. Was okay if it did not kick on and off all night, but usually it was too loud. By the 3rd night, we got used to it. LOL Pillows could also be bigger, but they were typical for Best Western.

"Great hotel in every respect"
Quest114594, 22 Septembre 2019

Did not expect this type of hotel. Service, room and the whole experience was great. Could not have asked for anything better. The price was great also. I would go back again to this same hotel on my next trip to the area..

"Vacation travel"
fozzie513, 20 Septembre 2019

Great location,lots to do close in the area without much travel,tons of choices to eat from ice cream to seafood to steaks everything available. All types of shopping including a super antique store that you can spend hours in. Good trip.

"hidden Gem"
willie1942, 16 Septembre 2019

We have stayed at this hotel many times and it is truly a hidden gem in Williamsburg....it is close to everything you might want to see and is clear and comfortable....the breakfast is outstanding and the employees could not be any more helpful and courteous....I highly recommend this hotel and will stay there on our future visits

"Clean, Friendly Staff, VERY nice rooms"
robwI3886UU, 11 Septembre 2019

Super close to Williamsburg. We bought our room with tickets to Busch gardens. This was an amazing package. WELL worth the money and I would do again (actually making plans now for next year). Breakfast was great.

"Great location and Comfortable"
SweatAfrica, 09 Septembre 2019

I have stayed twice at the Best Western Historic Area Inn. It is only few-minute drive to Colonial Williamsburg and downtown. It is at a quiet area, the room was clean, spacious, and the bed was really comfortable. I like that there are a microwave and a fridge in the room so that I was able to enjoy food and fruit in my room. There is a coin-laundry which is convenient and affordable! The lobby and breakfast area were clean, bright and inviting. They offer good selection of hot breakfast that was one of the reasons I chose this hotel. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Every staff I encountered said Hi and smiled to me. I also received a Thank-You note from a housekeeper who received tips from me (what a surprise)! The only issue I encountered was that the air conditioner was too loud. I turned the fan from high to low and it was a bit better. Because the surrounding was very quiet, the air-conditioner was the only source of noise in the room (that is why I deducted one star to the "Room" and "Sleep quality"). All in all, I did enjoy my stays and I will surely come back again.

"Meh. You get what you pay for."
Milliebeans, 07 Septembre 2019

We booked this directly through Busch Gardens and got a pretty good deal with parks tickets, parking, meal plans and lodging. For what we paid for it, I can deal but here's the thing: it's a 2.5 star location and that's it. It's not modern. It's cleanish. The first floor entry rug smells mildewy. The free breakfast is disappointed. The walls are thin and the guests are loud. If you can afford somewhere better, I recommend it. It's bearable for a quick place to crash between parks.

"Good price great location"
Shaun G, 04 Septembre 2019

The hotel was clean pool was nice looking didn't use nice little gym area very close to restaurants about 10-15min drive to Busch Gardens, water park USA and Colonial Williamsburg only issue was seating for the free breakfast the breakfast area is only but so big so get there early or take food back to your room

"Nice Hotel, Excellent Staff"
jferro439, 29 Août 2019

My wife and I wanted to visit Williamsburg and Jamestown so we chose to stay at this Best Western. Check was easy and the staff were very good. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. Housekeeping kept on top of things as well. Breakfast was the usual fare. All in all, a good hotel at a very reasonable price.

"good fun"
Gary R, 16 Août 2019

this hotel is in a great location from all the sites to see. the resuraunts. are all in walking distance.all the sites you want to see are in 15 minutes away.plus the hotel offers discounts to all the attracions.

"Needs a Good Cleaning"
ETJG3, 10 Août 2019

The hotel from the outside looks clean and modern but that is just a shell to fool you. The place needs a good scrubbing and they allow folks to run wild all night long in the hallways because that is the culture of certain guests.

"Best Western Historic Area"
garpeg76, 10 Août 2019

The grounds looked trimmed and neat, no trash laying around. Check-in was quick and efficient. Our room was neat and clean. Checkout was super fast. It was a very good place to spend the night plus it's close to all kinds of restaurants.

"bad stay"
jameswC1592ZP, 07 Août 2019

they over charged me. The house keeping did not come and do my room.This was the first bad experience I have had with them. They are my go to Hotel for travel. So I was definitely surprised at the situation.

"Short visit"
Ted G, 06 Août 2019

Every employee we had contact with was friendly and helpful. Desk staff was quick to answer any questions and to fix any issues.Breakfast each morning was plentiful and good tasting. They even managed to make a late night power outage due to an auto accident with a power pole tolerable. Great folks. Will definitely stay again.

"Great Hotel"
stks2018, 30 Juillet 2019

Hotel is beautiful and well maintained. It has a nice lobby. Staff was very pleasant. Room was nice. Centrally located as it's a 5 minute drive from Colonial Williamsburg and a 15 minute drive from Busch Gardens.

"Clean and modern"
ncurry803460, 29 Juillet 2019

The lobby was very clean and nicely decorated, the rooms were also clean and in good repair. The pool was nice but jacuzzi seemed to be broken, the water was not heated and the jets didn't work. Breakfast was well stocked and maintained throughout the morning.

"Stayed while visiting the local amusement parks"
CoachFowler2, 23 Juillet 2019

We stayed here for a family trip to Busch Gardens and Water Country USA and it was a short driving distance to each (about 10 minutes). The hotel staff was pleasant and very helpful in finding local restaurants when I checked in. The pool was fun for the kids in the evening, but the hot tub needs work. It was down for maintenance the first night and not very hot the rest of our stay. The breakfast was very good and had a lot of options; however, the breakfast area was crowded every day and hard to find space to sit and eat no matter what time you come down. One evening, a bus load of loud and rowdy teens came in around 1:00a, but my wife and staff were able to shut that down quickly. Like any hotel, if you nit-pick you can find many things wrong; however, we had a great stay and we found no major issues. We would stay again.

"3 B's- blood, black mold and broken outlets"
queenshan80, 17 Juillet 2019

The hotel is in a convient location which is the only plus. Do not be fooled by the pretty updated lobby. It is easy to put a coat of paint and nice furniture the key is to clean and update on a regular basis so every guest has a clean and memorable experience. Upon entering the room all seemed fine. Throughout our 3 night visit we found a new issue every night. Night one the outlet by the chair does not work. Of course we didnt notice until morning to get our uncharged phone. Night 2 after a long day at Busch Gardens we need to shower. Soap scum, black and pink mold in different areas of the shower. The morning we left my stepdaughter lost her socks in the sheets. No problem, right? Wrong. While moving the sheets it appears to have a turned over bloody stained mattress. As much money as hotels male they can afford to replace a heavily soiled mattress and not flip it over. The beds are not back friendly so do not expect a comfy rest.

"Hotel ok"
Gabriele R, 11 Juillet 2019

Hotel is ok, nothing special. Breakfast area is far to small for all the guests and the staff there is not very helpful. Reception is very customer friendly. We stayed 3 nights. 2 booked through an agent, 1 booked directly. Only for the one night we good rewards points. They accepted our card but only credited one night. Complaints were not really answered.

"Close to Busch Gardens"
L M, 11 Juillet 2019

Not a bad hotel, not great either. The room I stayed in needed some work. Wallpaper was peeling off in the bathroom, sloppy wall repair work on one wall. Very small beds in the room. Another thing I noticed is the dim lighting in the rooms and hallways. Housekeeping did an excellent job keeping room clean every day. Decent breakfast and very hard working food service employees, they kept the breakfast items well stocked and clean. Hallways were very noisy because the hotel room doors are slammed very often during the night. The price is very reasonable for this hotel, I would recommend.

"nice place to stay"
larry m, 11 Juillet 2019

been comming here for many years, rooms are clean,beds and pillows comfortable,close to all the sights.nice breakfast,staff very helpfull.would recommened this place for anybody staying in area.nice price for what you get

"Great location poor quality and service at check in"
SusanG3785, 10 Juillet 2019

Agent at check in more focused on what his teammate was doing, did not hand me my room key just set it on the counter and I had to ask if it was mine, didn't bother to tell me where my room was until I asked and then seemed inconvenienced. Bathroom door rusty, vanity mirror falling off, carpets dirty, sofa had stains, ceiling texture falling off over desk.

"Not what I expected..."
Debra M, 08 Juillet 2019

We were there 3 nights over July 4th. We are not familiar with the area and were seeking a hotel that was within walking distance of "downtown", restaurants and shopping. We realized that we were about a 20 minute walk from colonial Williamsburg. We were disappointed...that being said, when the pouring rains came on the 4th we were glad that we were at least that close! The hotel is dated, by this I mean it is rather dark and in particular the bathrooms are very small. Our bed was okay but not exceptional. The carpets in our room had stains,etc. The pool was large and satisfactory. Our stay was okay but I would not recommend it to friends visiting the area.It did not compare to the Best Western we had just left in Lexington VA.

"Cozy & Comfortable!"
DiscountKing, 04 Juillet 2019

I had an enjoyable 3 day stay at the Best Western Historic Area Inn during my visit to Williamsburg. Pros: *Rooms were very clean and presentable. Rooms were cleaned daily. Used towels were washed daily. Beds were not changed unless you requested clean sheets daily. *Cozy and comfortable rooms. Comfortable beds. Refrigerator and microwave in each room. *Plenty of hot water in the shower. *Radiator cooled the room off on a hot summer's day/night. *Indoor Swimming Pool & Hot Tub *Fitness Center *A wonderful selection of hot and cold foods for the complimentary breakfast. Eggs, sausage, hash browns, potatoes, cereals, pancakes, toast, etc. The selection changed slightly by the day. The breakfast area is usually crowded. Eat inside or on the outdoor patio. *Washer/Dryer available on several floors for self-service for a fee. *Free Onsite Parking *Convenient location to Colonial Williamsburg and downtown Williamsburg. *Discounted tickets available for an area theme park. Cons: *The only negative thing I have to say about this hotel is the ice machines had trouble keeping up with the demand. Recommendations: *If you plan to go to sleep early, ask for a room away from the pool as it closes at 11 p.m. *Watch for price changes or rebates on rooms on the Best Western website. *Highly recommend staying at this Best Western location.

"Very clean - great location"
Dawn B, 02 Juillet 2019

5 miles to Busch Gardens I think about a mile to Colonial Williamsburg. Lots of restaurants all around. Super clean, friendly staff. Gave best discount to Colonial Williamsburg I could find. Good breakfast. Nice clean indoor pool that had good ventilation so it didn't smell like super chlorine like most indoor pools do with super hot jacuzzi with clean towels.

"Good stay"
AdakC, 28 Juin 2019

We stayed one night on our way home and enjoyed the place. Rooms are comfortable and have everything you need for your stay. It is close to shopping and restaurants, one is in walking distance. I would have no problem staying here again.

"Great place to stay in the Williamsburg area."
Terry C, 27 Juin 2019

We stayed here three nights while visiting the historic sites at Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown. Hotel was immaculate and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The hot breakfast was very good, with a selection of hot and cold foods. The price was very reasonable in comparison to other hotels in the area. Plus, it was literally five minutes from the Visitor Center of Colonial Williamsburg. We would definitely stay here, again.

"YIKES! A snake is the night shift greeter"
thechanning1, 20 Juin 2019

The rooms are definitely dated and could use some upgrades! The biggest issue is the snake sitting in the foyer area as you come into the property. Yes, it probably slithered in from outside, but I can't get the image out of my mind of it still curled up in the corner. I'm terrified to touch or open anything in my room thinking a snake might be around.

"Great Value for the Price"
Picklefamily404, 20 Juin 2019

Great value for this area. Hotel staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is great for free. Some rooms need a little TLC. Rooms prior to last visit were great, but this one was not. We have always stayed at this property and had no issues. We even invited our family to come along this year and they stayed here as well.

"Staff rude"
Pioneer226859, 20 Juin 2019

The hotel is nice, rooms clean, fair priced. The only problem I had was the staff. They act like you are in their way. If they come around a corner and almost knock you down, instead of saying, "excuse me," they make you move and keep walking, with their earbuds in. Especially the maids. They dont speak, and look at you like, "get the hell out of my way." The front desk says your room will be ready by a certain time, it isn't. They say they will call you when it is ready, they don't. You, the customer have to keep checking. The people refilling breakfast food make snide comments if you don't get out of their way fast enough to refill the food/drinks. Not that it may have anything to do with the other 100 people standing in line as to why you can't move. Work on customer service and this hotel would be amazing!

"Great Stay"
Ramblin-Joe1, 01 Juin 2019

Stayed here 3 nights in May while we were visiting surrounding area. Rooms were dated but clean and comfortable, staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the morning was Great, everything was hot and plenty of it. Would stay here again if in the area.

"Looking froward to coming back"
Alan B, 28 Mai 2019

I don't have one negative thing to say about this hotel and have too many positive things to say, in this limited space, so I will highlight the best. First of all, the staff working behind the front desk were fantastic! Special kudos go to Alexis, who helped in copy maps and buy our tickets for The Williamsburg Historic District. The breakfast staff also did a fantastic job making sure the offerings were kept up, considering there we two bus loads of hungry teenagers and the chaperones!! Finally, the room was nice and clean and the bed COMFORTABLE!

"Expected more for money"
Excursion20238058648, 26 Mai 2019

For what we paid for queen double, I expected larger bath. And would have liked earlier breakfast (they started at 7 am), and better coffee/cream choices (we had weak Nespresso coffee machine and powdered cream). Mattresses were hard and linens scratchy. Staff nice tho!

"Ant infested"
kab1278, 25 Mai 2019

My family and I checked into the BW Plus Historic Area on Friday, 5/24/19 around 8:30pm. Came back today from sightseeing all day to find over 30 ants on table of outside wall. I called the front desk where a very nice toung lady offered offered Raid bug spray. I advised youngest son and husband are asthmatics, so we couldn't use Raid. She said she would make a note for the maintenance man for tomorrow. She came back with vinegar/ water solution, sprayed the area, and cleaned the table where I found most of the ants. I asked to be moved to another room but was advised there were no vacancies. About 15 minutes later, the ants began returning. Husband and I called 6 hotels to move; all sold out. Advised front desk that ants were back and we wanted to move hotels but the 6 we called were booked. Manager/supervisor was called and we were suddenly moved to a new room, one story up and across from old room. I contacted corporate reservations who advised that there were no open rooms within a 25 mile radius, including our hotel. The front desk originally advised we could not be moved to a new room due to no openings. Left voice mail with corporate customer service advising issue and the 1.5 hours it took to work on. Had I not pressed the issue, we'd still be in the same ant infested room, which I have pics and video of. I was very nice about everything. It is a shame that employees aren't allowed to resolve issues unless customers push and push for help, though this issue still isn't resolved. We are on vacation 6 hours away from home with no hotels to move to. Our luggage had sat in the room with the ants all day. I am interested to find out how this will be ultimately be handled and am looking forward to updating TripAdvisor with how BW Plus treats this.

"Could NOT have asked for anything more."
448BenS, 25 Mai 2019

Could NOT have asked for anything more. This hotel had it all. First, the desk people were absolutely so polite and professional. The room was large, clean and comfortable. The hot tub and pool were super nice. We went swimming every night. The breakfast bar was good, though it was crowded most mornings. Still, there was a place to sit and the food was good. Central to EVERYTHING. We'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

"Visiting area"
Laurie D, 22 Mai 2019

We stayed here because we were planning on visiting the Williamsburg area. The hotel is just 5 minutes away from the historic area. Easy access on and off major Interstate. Staff is cordial and very helpful.

"Good Value in Williamsburg"
Steve S, 18 Mai 2019

Good central location easy to get to all attractions and restaurants. Rooms are quiet and comfortable at very good rates. Front desk staff are very helpful and pleasant. They offer a very nice breakfast bar that has real tasty food. Very enjoyable and tasty.

"Southern hospitality at its best!"
Julie C, 10 Mai 2019

This is my family's 3rd year in a row staying at this hotel. We drive 12hrs each way, and I wouldn't travel that long if it wasn't worth it! Perfect location, delicious (free) breakfast every day, great rooms, and even better service!! Whether you're interacting with housekeeping or the reception desk, everyone is extremely courteous, professional, and genuinely happy to see you! The manager offered me a discount last year (not because of anything bad), and honored it over a year later! She made sure that our stay there was perfect! I miss it already!!!

"Pool Time"
Jackie P, 28 Avril 2019

I loved the pool. The room was great, but the lights could of been brighter in the room and in the bathroom. My husband used the spa and the pool and he enjoyed it too. Improvements could be made in the breakfast area because the traffic pattern caused confusion. The eggs did not taste like eggs no matter how they served them. The ice maker on the second floor was out of order the whole week and the soda machine was empty the whole week. The Williamsburg location was perfect.

"Nice Breakfast Offering"
NTR2012, 28 Avril 2019

This is a standard hotel good for families. There's a large indoor pool and a nice breakfast offered daily that ends promptly at 10:00 am. It's also in good promixity to attractions in the area. Cracker Barrel and Golden Corral are within walking distance of the hotel.

"Guest"
OCJohn-1, 27 Avril 2019

My family and I stayed here for 4 nights it was a great stay but we were late arriving due to traffic on 95 and our booking.com reservation expired at 4:00. Vanessa at the front desk was so knowledgeable and helpful to us getting us another reservation in the hotel without having to change rooms. I was very impressed with her skill. The hotel breakfast was better than most and very well attended and kept clean by the hotel staff.

"Good location. Ok for the price"
Triplet F, 26 Avril 2019

Very convenient location to Busch Gardens. Across the street from the Cracker Barrell. Front desk staff was not very welcoming and very short with any questions. Ice machine was out of order on 2nd floor. Pool water was very cloudy. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choices, hot and cold. Lots of seating. Average rooms. I would try a different hotel in the area next trip.

"quick 2 night stay with our family"
Journey03984646270, 21 Avril 2019

Hotel is clean and standard. The showers are great! Beds are doubles so kinda small. Housekeeping is very good. The pool and hot tub area are okay - nothing amazing but kids had fun. The included breakfast was good as well.

"Good Amenities"
CarrieA3681, 19 Avril 2019

We stayed here just one night while visiting William and Mary college. There is an indoor pool, a small gym, a decent continental buffet breakfast, free parking and wifi and laundry facilities. We didnt have time to use any of the amenities, except breakfast. The room was basic, but quiet and pretty clean. They charge $12 for a roll away cot - dont do it, worst mattress ever and very small. Could only be used for a young child. Overall perfectly fine place to stay.

"Perfect spot"
Rennyla, 19 Avril 2019

Spent four nights here over the Spring Break holiday, and though the hotel was fully booked, everything ran smoothly. The staff were all extremely friendly and efficient. Our room was very clean and beds and linens were very comfortable. The breakfast room kept up with a busy time, and there were some offerings that changed each day. We didn't use the indoor pool, but it was bigger than a typical hotel pool and it looked very relaxing. This hotel is in a perfect location for visiting all the historic areas and Busch Gardens. There were many restaurants nearby, but it is in too busy of an area for us to walk to many. We did go to Rocco's Smokehouse which is right out front, and it was very good. We would definitely stay here again!

"Pleasantly Surprised "
kinaf_13, 16 Avril 2019

This was a last minute weekend getaway. We booked the room that day and got a discount for staying 3 nights. Rooms clean, beds comfy, HBO, indoor pool, really good breakfast, great location and the best staff!!! Only cons, the refrigerator did always work and the light bulb at door would flicker at times.

"Worst hotel room"
LoryDiazz, 15 Avril 2019

We arrived today, April 15 2019. There was poop in the bathroom grout tile!!!!! They left us in the same room and cleaned the poop. Zero stars for this hotel .Stay away from this hotel!!!!!!! Totally disappointed!

"clean and quiet"
hiddenacres2018, 15 Avril 2019

this hotel is very nice off the main road so you don't get outside traffic noise but easy access to everything. The staff was very pleasant and the breakfast had everything you need with different items everyday.

"wonderful place"
kathy c, 14 Avril 2019

We had a wonderfiul time in Williamsburg tours were great The history is unbelievable. ,the people are very gracious everywhere we went. I would certainly go back.The hotel really made our stay in this lovely town ,because at the end of the day we were exhaused from our long days out in the charming town and we were so happy to get home to our wonderful hotel. Shopping is faulous with over 100 hyndred outlet malls. You can take long scenic drives, they have drive urself tours along miles of roads that are outstanding.Everyone should go to this town once in their lifetime.

"Friendly and Convenient!"
Jennifer C, 13 Avril 2019

I stayed at this hotel on my way to college visits with my high school senior. I was attracted to the price and I am a reward member, but I was also impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. They were all very accomodating and helpful. It was also very convenient to stay here for college visitations as well as go shopping, eat at good restaurants, and do some fun attractions that we did do. I have stayed at this hotel three times and hope to stay more times in the future.

"Best for us"
calvinh83, 04 Mars 2019

We love staying at Best Western. Never disappointed when I'm there. The rooms are clean, the food is good, and close to all the placed I like to go. The pottery is not far, and the mall right down the street.

"Clean, convenient, but old and tired"
Curiosity36437692459, 18 Février 2019

We stayed at this location recently and while our room was clean and the staff friendly (the little we saw them) the hotel is desperately in need of an update. The hallways smelled strongly of bug spray (though we saw no evidence of bugs), the carpet is stained due to age, and the windows are clouded with age making the rooms dark and dim. It made it hard to relax, because it just felt so dreary.

"Do not recommend"
R C, 05 Février 2019

The reservation was messed up. Was to have connecting rooms which was confrimed by calling the hotel when reservation was made. Clerk at the front desk was not very nice about it. Told her the name of the person I spoke with and the date and time. Even told her the room numbers I was given that we would be staying in. She told me there was not employee there by that name. Then said oh they are not here anymore.Found a condom wrapper on the bed under decorative covering when preparing for bed. Called the front office and requested they come to the room. The clerk who had checked us in and another young man came. She said where did you find that. I told right where it was that I wasn't touching it. She informed me that she would change the top sheet.. I told her that I wanted the whole bed stripped. She went out the room muttering that wasn't her job. Complained the whole time while they were making the bed that her back hurt. She left the young man to finish the job of putting the pillow cases on. He apologized several times and told us he was on for the night and if we needed him to call. The bed was horrible. I do not recommend staying at this hotel.

"Nice hotel- Excellent value and amenities for the price"
Odyssey49452477375, 04 Janvier 2019

The hotel was recently remodeled and was very clean and attractive. Staff were courteous and helpful, and the hot breakfast buffet had a surprising number of offerings. Definitely an excellent value for the price, and we would book here again!

"Good value"
Joycefam, 01 Janvier 2019

The best thing about this property after staying at several different properties in the Williamsburg area is their customer service. From the time we checked in till we left we felt very welcomed. The staff was very helpful. The swimming area was nice for a winter swim. The breakfast was nice, with bacon, eggs, sausage, etc. just wished they had the biscuits and gravy more than once while we were there. The breakfast area was crowded and this could be an issue during the busy times of the year.They did have trays if you wished to have breakfast in your room. The beds were very comfortable with higher quality bedding as compared to other properties. our room was clean.

"It's just okay"
shunzako, 29 Décembre 2018

The room was moderately priced but I think you get what you paid for. The room is equiped with two double beds instead of two queens, so a family of four should know this beforehand, otherwise you are in for a surprise. The room was not clean in our case like how other people have commented. The furniture and decor was very dated. Our bathtub had a stain that couldn't be washed off. My kids were weary of using the shower. The pipes were also clogged. We were miserable during shower time because the tub wouldnt drain! The maintenance guy did come by and try to fix it, but it couldn't be fixed for the duration of our stay. I gave three star for their hospitality and the swimming pool! It was one of the biggest pool I have seen staying at different hotels, and it was heated during winter time. That was very nice and we had a great time at the pool.

"Nice"
bjbish, 29 Décembre 2018

A nice hotel for the price, Best Western is usually not our first choice, but this one offered a nice Hloiday package for stays, tickets to Williamsburg ,and Busch gardens for a reasonable price. We booked 3 rooms as our family was with us. We were very pleasantly surprised at how nice it was, not luxury but nice.

"Great service"
TravelerBobby, 28 Décembre 2018

This hotel provided great service, from start to finish. Employees throughout the hotel were friendly and greeted us each time we passed. The room was clean, and the breakfast was good. Overall, it was a great experience.

"Great hotel Check your food"
S136CZkellyl, 26 Décembre 2018

The hotel and front desk staff are great. The hot tub was wonderful and the pool is warm. Cute little arcade. The rooms were nice and the beds are cozy. The breakfast however had hair in the mixed fruit and a fly flying around in it. The kids would hardly eat any of the food. They thought it was disgusting. If you like hot tea they only had plain Lipton and not in the rooms. The staff in the breakfast area are not very helpful or friendly , but everyone else were wonderful.

"Great.. value of Money. Excellent location"
aamitg, 25 Décembre 2018

Hotel is at very good location. Colonial and Busch garden both attractions are within couple of miles from this location. Resturants @ richmond road are withiin 5 mins. Rooms are clean and neat.. I was in room with kind bed.. bed was good and confirtable. Staff is cooperative. Internet is preety good.. breakfast was good.. but break fast area is too small...you might need to wait to get empty table I stayed in december 22 to 24.. 2018

"Not bad for the money!"
Wilma J, 14 Décembre 2018

Helpful, friendly employees; great and tasty all-you-can-eat breakfast options; generally quiet clientele; hotel centrally located but somewhat out of the busiest area. Many amenities like indoor pool, hot tub, computers, fitness room, business center, laundry, vending machines - even fresh cookies at the desk one evening!

"Great experience"
Happiness65609545920, 02 Décembre 2018

Great customer service I look for that when I go out to places from the breakfast to hot tub I felt so relaxed front desk employees were so nice and greeted me my room was on point the cable service was good too had multiple of channels cleanliness was good . I will be returning back to rhis hotel.

"Excellent value"
rhoffmann4502, 13 Novembre 2018

Very nice hotel with well kept, clean rooms. Two problems, there is no exhaust fan in the bathroom and when entering the room it is so dark, even with the entry light that my wife walked into the room and promptly slammed right into a low lying table. The entry light does not provide illlumination into the room, being blocked by a half wall. The hot breakfast was excellent with a good selection of hot and cold items.

"Clean and inexpensive "
lynnann69, 06 Novembre 2018

Clean hotel not far from attractions. Super nice front desk staff and cleaning staff. We stayed two nights. Comfortable size room. Bed was firm for my taste but hubby liked it. Super soft comfy pillows. Breakfast Food was typical but abundant. Great value (although it is November...not much happening here now)

"Hotel not for resting and disappointing that it is a Plus from a BW member"
MsECostello, 24 Octobre 2018

The purpose of a hotel is to come back from sightseeing or traveling to relax and get a good night's rest. Well that did not happen here. We checked in and air conditioner was not working in which we told front desk. We left all day and when we arrived it still had not been fixed. We suffered threw it since we were exhausted from the sightseeing however the beds were the hardest thing we have ever slept on as well. Front desk manger was manager on duty and refused a refund of money. She claimed she could only do half of the bill. Well I have worked in a hotel before and called her out on that. We did not get a refund until I contacted corporate in regards to the unprofessionalism of service and low quality as a diamond select member expects at a plus. Would not recommend and suggest their flag be changed if they can not live up to BW Plus expectations.

"Nice room even though it was not one that had been remodeled"
Darrel B, 22 Octobre 2018

Our room was nice even though it was not one that had been remodeled. The room was large and clean. Beds were comfortable. The breakfast area had ample seating, was bright and clean, and the food was good. We knew our room had not been remodeled because were some dents in the furniture and some rust on the bathroom door frame. We had to set the AC a few degrees lower than the desired temperature. The refrigerator whined when the compressor was running. There were not enough electrical outlets to charge all of our electronic devices and plug in my CPAP. The outlets were loose and did not hold the plugs securely. But overall the room was very nice and the hotel is a great bargain.

"Expected more"
jablanks, 20 Octobre 2018

I was very much disappointed with the room for the price. I was expecting better since it was located in Williamsburg. Room was very, very small as was the bathroom. Pillows very small. Very noisy from doors slamming shut most of the night and the AC unit at the end of the hall was making a constant noise.

"Best Westren Williamsburg VA"
marylouse, 18 Octobre 2018

Very clean Hotel, Very friendly Staff. Breakfast was wonderful. The Gentleman in charge of it did a wonderful job. Staff called to your room to make sure everything was ok. The cable company switched out remotes and the staff made sure everyones worked

"Great place to stay!"
aredmond214, 16 Octobre 2018

This site was a pleasure to stay with! Check in and check out was quick and the front desk receptionist was lively and nice! Its very clean and kept up rel nicely! I recommend this hotel to any and everyone!

"Excellent Reunion Venue"
u77aca, 15 Octobre 2018

I coordinated a reunion for 28 people through events coordinator Kandi Shaw. She was very helpful with details, my friends were all happy with their stay, and the staff could not have been more helpful. The hotel is in an excellent location for visiting the Historic Triangle, with easy parking and nearby restaurants. The breakfast was good, and we were allowed to use the breakfast area in the evenings as a kind of lounge for getting together. There is also a nice patio adjoining the pool.

"Great stay!"
Vandola2, 08 Octobre 2018

This is my favorite place to stay in Williamsburg due to it's central location which makes it easy to get anywhere. I usually get lost in Williamsburg but not when I stay here. I love the late pool hours until 11 pm and the hot tub which is always hot temperature which is great after a day of touring and shopping. I also like the late breakfast hours until 10 am even during the week so since I stay up late I can sleep in some and still enjoy a good breakfast. The bedding is great. The staff is so nice and pleasant every time I pas them in the hotel. I stayed using the multi-stay promotion and you can't beat this price for the amenities and cleanliness of this hotel.

"Friendly staff - Excellent Location - Will return!"
TylerP_GolfingVA, 08 Octobre 2018

I loved the ease of access to the hotel, plenty of parking on the property & within walking distance of several good restaurants, (chains and local spots - Ask the staff about the best places to go, they're super knowledgable). The staff was super friendly & the beds were comfy! Just be sure to keep an eye on the plug to the refrigerator, we accidently pulled it out thinking it was the coffee maker & our beverages were warm when we got back from golf.. not a good thing :-)

"Always my first choice"
Sunshine711321, 07 Octobre 2018

I have stayed at this hotel four times now, and I will continue to book this hotel each time I visit Williamsburg. The rooms are always clean, the staff is always very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast/pool/etc is nice also.

"Very impressed!"
kristie1230, 05 Octobre 2018

We stayed 3 nights using a $49/nt Groupon. What a great deal! Staff were friendly and very helpful. Shenelle kept our room spotless. The hotel is in the process of renovations and everything looks fantastic so far. The breakfast area is huge and looks upscale with white leather seating. The continental breakfast serves a variety of hot and cold food and was wonderful. Our room was nicely appointed and the bed was comfortable. The hotel is in a quiet and convenient location. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

"Everything was great"
Tad R, 01 Octobre 2018

I have a very short criteria for rating a hotel: 1) Do I feel safe? Yes. 2) Are the rooms and other facilities clean? Yes. 3) Is the bed comfortable? Yes. 4) Is the staff friendly and helpful. YES. This hotel met all the criteria and then some. We had a great stay.

"Kid Friendly Pool"
mollymcclour, 15 Septembre 2018

My favorite part about this hotel is the pool is open until 11pm so even after you do all your sightseeing you still have time to enjoy the pool and it makes the kids extremely happy to still get to swim. The hotel is suitable and the staff was friendly. It is a great location to Colonial Williamsburg and there are a couple restaurants within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you need somewhere nice but affordable.

"Shopping trip"
maggywells, 12 Septembre 2018

My friend and I decided on a quick trip to Williamsburg to shop the outlets and found this hotel on trip advisor. While the rooms were clean and the beds were nice, the corridors were hot and uncomfortable. This was ok but would not want to stay more than 1 night.

"Great stay for a quick getaway!!"
Nickt99206, 10 Septembre 2018

This BW location is probably the best I have stayed in in a long time. All the rooms were clean, a little outdated, but went with the colonial area vibe. The hotel is super close to the Colonial Pkwy and Williamsburg sights. Restaurants nearby are great, I wish we stayed for more than one night. This BW location made me sign up to be a BW Rewards Member and I will gladly use the program! Great job guys ??

"Great 25th birthday."
jessthomp693, 09 Septembre 2018

Great hotel experience. Chlorine was a little high in the jacuzzi or my eyes just may be a little sensitive but they were watering constantly. Still great nonetheless. Front desk staff was super knowledgeable about the area when I first arrived and even provided coupons. My only complaint is with housekeeping, I called the front desk prior to my scheduled checkout to request a later time and that requested was granted and also assured hat housekeeping would be notified. Not really sure what happened but housekeeping harassed me the entire time I was resting until I checked out. Other than that, everything was good.

"Great service!"
damon31315, 05 Septembre 2018

My stay here at this location was absolutely an amazing experience. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful for all my needs. The breakfast was very good, and the location is excellent. The room had all the amenities that you could ask for. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel.

"Nice Experience"
lynntd35, 03 Septembre 2018

This hotel was in a convenient location, free parking, clean room, nice breakfast spread, and good service all for a reasonable price. I was shock to get all those good qualities in one hotel for a lower price hotel. I haven't stayed at a Best Western in decades but it is now on my families list of places to stay:)

"Family trip"
mayram192018, 30 Août 2018

I love this place..Is always nice and clean staff our very friendly..Breakfast is the best breakfast I ever had at a hotel.. The indoor pool is a plus rainy days you just can go and relax..There's tables and chairs plus towels you can use..

"Fabulous Hotel and Location"
jaysR4469VU, 28 Août 2018

Really enjoyed staying here. Folks were wonderful, room comfortable, clean and great location to Williamsburg everyday.The breakfast in the mornings were good and there was always plenty of food. Very impressed with all the hotel staff.

"Not bad, but the hotel is kind of old"
Mario M, 27 Août 2018

We booked this hotel because of three things. Location, price and it had an indoor swimming pool. The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to get to the attractions. It had a fairly large parking lot, so finding parking wasn't an issue. The rooms were comfortable and clean, but a bit outdated. We had a problem with the shower curtain...it was too short, so water kept escaping onto the bathroom floor. However, the hotel staff was able to locate a slightly longer curtain and that remedied the problem. There is a sitdown, hot breakfast, which wasn't bad at all. However, they did keep running out of items and it took time to replenish the buffet. The dining area was extremely small for the amount of people eating breakfast at any given time. But we didn't have to wait too long to get a table as the turnaround was smooth. But expect a long line waiting to get to the breakfast items. My biggest problem was the hotel was kind of old (circa 1970's), which was apparent as you walked throught the hotel's hallways. But that once you were in the room, that didn't matter much. I would stay here again.

"Pretty good"
vjohnson1101, 26 Août 2018

Rooms needs updating but the stay was fine. My kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Wifi was a bit slow but I'm sure that's because everyone was on it . Breakfast was also good. Staff was great throughout my stay

"Amazing Service"
Brian G, 24 Août 2018

Marus was super helpful in helping me resolve room rates for a super reasonable rate. I am in the Army and I highly recommend this place for active duty and veterans for their military rates. I will be looking at this place again whenever I visit Williamsburg or Busch Gardens.

"Outstanding place to stay"
Frank F, 22 Août 2018

Have to say this is one on the best hotels we have stayed at on vacation. The rooms are clean and they have the best hotel pillows ever. This is the first time I haven't had to fold the pillows in 1/2 to get comfortable. All of the staff members are very nice and helpful. The pool and exercise rooms were clean and complimentary breakfast is excellant. Kudos to all the staff members.

"Broken elevators"
marleneannoni, 20 Août 2018

Room was clean and comfortable. Elevators did not work. Got stuck in one elevator, scary experience. Would not want to stay at this hotel again because of the lack of working elevators. I was on the 4th floor and took the stairs for the remainder of my trip.

"Fake information"
Rosa F, 19 Août 2018

We made a 7 hours trip just to find out that what this people shows in the pictures as a two queen bed room was really a two full size bed for the price of a double queen room. After we spoke to the front desk the only response we had was that "that's what we have as queen bed and you can just cancel and get another hotel". Be aware cause people can reserve here based on pictures and information that are not real

"Perfect rest for history chasers"
fireman217, 19 Août 2018

Traveling with my family to Williamsburg brought us to the Best Western Plus on Bypass road. We booked through my Best Western account. We stayed two nights and used two rooms for our group of five. The queen size beds were luxuriously comfortable and they honored our request of adjoining rooms. The rooms were clean, the pool and hot tub were rejuvenating. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. Complimentary breakfast was self serve but hot and savory. Finding the hotel was easy, and it was centrally located to all nearby attractions. Parking was close and there were plenty of spots. The price was perfect and a real bargain...with such a family friendly place it was easy to meet new people and share stories and get ideas to enhance our vacation. I would recommend this hotel always...we have had great success using Best Western in the past and this was no exception.

"Great value"
jodishaffer, 19 Août 2018

The only thing I can think that we didn't like was the pool seemed to be over chlorinated. Our eyes were burning without even getting in. The rooms were clean, beds comfortable and location was great! Breakfast was good also!

"Great Find!!"
kevintO850ZT, 14 Août 2018

The hotel was great, within a few minutes of the attractions. It was clean, updated, the breakfast was excellent. We have 2 teenage boys and they had plenty to eat with a good variety (cereal, waffles, eggs, bacon or sausage, French toast or hash browns, pastries, fruit etc.)

"Not a good experience "
Jamie C, 05 Août 2018

I booked this hotel after reading the reviews here. We checked in and went to our room and immediately noticed the smell. It was very damp and musty smelling. The A/C was running and never stopped. It was set on 70. The room was very run down as was most of the hotel with the exception of the lobby. We tried to make due but after being in the room for awhile I knew it wasn't going to work. I was able to cancel the remainder of our reservation and move to a different hotel but couldn't find anything for the first night. So we had to stay. My 5 year old was sleeping on the pull out couch and the mattress was covered in plastic so every move she made was so loud. She was so uncomfortable that she ended up in our bed, which was also uncomfortable. There were doors slamming up and down the hallway until 4 a.m. It was one of the worst hotel stays I've had. The only reason I rated this hotel poor instead of terrible is the staff. Everyone was very helpful and friendly and tried their best to make things right.

"Mini Staycation"
Mrs-Mr-Wiggles, 25 Juillet 2018

So my husband all of a sudden had 3 days in a row off from work. 2 if those days were my days off; which never happens. So Sunday morning I'm up at 3am trying to find a B&B for Sunday, Mon and Tues, lol. I wanted a REAL BREAKFAST, hot tub, fitness center and indoor pool because it was due to rain heavily those days; all for less than $130/night. No B&B offered that, but the Best Western Plus did! Comfortable and clean room. New furniture. The extra large jetted tub (3 people easily ??) could use some attention to detail. The filter and one of the Jets showed signs of yuck. But the shower pressure and hot water and tub drainage was perfect. The indoor pool and separate hot tub were just what the doctor ordered. With a customer controlled, alternating 5 minute (20 minutes total) bubble timer. It's the only pool so kids were a plenty. The buffet breakfast was delicious and the hot food changed day to day. That was a nice touch! Newspapers were available at breakfast. Coffee and tea were available all day. The fitness center had a treadmill, elliptical, bicycle, dumbbells, adjustable bench, towels, TV, and clock and scale that needed to be replaced. The staff were simply helpful. However Miss Lay, was exceptionally helpful and pleasant! They offer nicely discounted Busch Gardens tickets. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. We try to visit many different places to keep our lives interesting so we may not return. But believe me when I say that this is a great place to go and return to! Gentle suggestions: Put a clock on 1st floor elevator and in pool area. Change battery in clock in the gym. Replace the scale in the gym. Switch the healthier snack machine with the junk food machine. It isn't even noticable behind the tree and laundry machines. Clean the filter in the bathroom tub. Set aside pool/hot tub hours just for adults. Give Miss Lay our sincere gratitude.

"Nice hotel, but could use a little TLC"
Mike C, 24 Juillet 2018

Best Western Plus hotels promise rewarding style and contemporary design, and going beyond the expected. Well, this one doesn't. I'd still stay there is in the Williamsburg area, because I really like the BW brand, and have always had good experiences there. But this one is getting a bit shabby on the inside, and could use some upgrades especially in the public areas. The breakfast area is small, and it is very difficult to maneuver through there in the morning, but I DO appreciate the complimentary breakfast very much. Now that said, I think the rooms here are quiet, I can get the curtains to close and block out the morning sunshine if I want to, the beds are comfortable, pillows aren't bad, all the furniture was in good shape, and most of all... the room was clean. The location is pretty good, and there are restaurants all along the road there, close to Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg, and there is plenty of parking. But you know what? The price is right. You can stay here for about a hundred bucks or so per night, and you're getting a pretty good deal at that price.

"Friendly/Helpful Staff, Clean Room, Delicious HOT Breakfast"
Kristine412, 22 Juillet 2018

My family just vacationed in Williamsburg and I could not be happier that I selected the Best Western Plus for our stay. Our room was clean and comfortable, we had plenty of space for the 4 of us, extra pillows on the bed, we had a fridge and microwave, and the bathroom was spacious. Plus an indoor pool. The staff were all very friendly and helpful from the front desk to housekeeping to the breakfast staff. Speaking of breakfast...Delicious!!! There were the standard continental breakfast items (bagels, muffins, toast), there was fruit, oatmeal and cereal but then there was also scrambled eggs every day and each day there was a meat (bacon, sausage or both) and carb (tater tots, pancakes, french toast sticks). The staff was constantly refilling everything and quick to ask if there was anything you needed or anything else that they could get you. And, breakfast didn't end until 10am for those who wanted to sleep in a little more. We were close to Colonial Williamsburg, only 15-20 minutes from Busch Gardens and Water Country, there was a mini golf that we walked to, lots of restaurants around (some walkable), and kmart right across the street for anything else that you need.

"Convenient Hotel"
Linda F, 19 Juillet 2018

Nice, clean, and friendly staff at this hotel. Very convenient location with restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast selection is great and tasty. Rooms are nice and comfortable. Will stay there again if in the area.

"Very Clean and Super Friendly Staff!!!"
Shannon907, 10 Juillet 2018

The room was very nice, spacious and clean. Check in was a breeze. We had booked the hotel about 20 minutes prior to our arrival and they had everything ready and waiting at the desk!!!! Close to all major attractions and many restaurants to choose from within walking distance. Overall a great value for the money!

"Bush garden Williamsburgh trip"
ohlersc, 09 Juillet 2018

This was one of the best hotel stays I ever had. Staff was outstanding and helpful. They had suggestions on local places to eat and what to avoid the location of local shopping. I could not have been any happier with the staff very friendly and polite. The hotel it self was very clean pool area was well kept. The breakfast in the morning was a great start for the day just about everything you could ask for.

"Wonderful stay"
Sherry M, 03 Juillet 2018

We were surprised at how fantastic our stay was in this hotel. Everyone was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. A special "shout out" to Elegria and Tye! The breakfast each morning was delicious! This is definitely how a hotel should be run!

"Very good place to stay in Williamsburg"
Agnes W, 02 Juillet 2018

We love visiting Colonial Williamsburg and stayed in many hotels in the area. Best Western is now a serious contender on our list. Very comfortable room, plenty of pillows, towels etc. All comforts of home. Welcoming reception, nice breakfast room, good food. Excellent location to visit town and Colonial area. Many restaurants nearby. Hotel accessible from side streets to avoid merging with busy traffic.

"Great service and great deal."
tcoughli, 28 Juin 2018

I had a short one day stay and everything was great. The rates are very good, the staff were excellent, the room was clean and breakfast was nice. I actually forgot a shirt in my room and the staff went above and beyond to not only locate it, but send it to me.

"Beware of the taxes"
mamachef7, 26 Juin 2018

The staff was super friendly, the rooms a bit dated, The beds were old and uncomfortable in my opinion. The lobby was remodeled but the hallway carpets were quite dirty. It was a cheaper rate than most in the area or so I thought. While the price may be lower there are 5 different taxes added to your bill. The other hotels in the area may do the same, but beware of the price it may be deceiving. For 4 nights I paid about $75 in taxes which seems high to me. It averaged to $129 a night which didn't seem worth it in the end. The staff was the best thing about the hotel.

"Relaxing overnight "
Lisa W, 10 Juin 2018

We were driving back to Maryland from a mountain vacation in North Carolina and decided to stop here. Glad we did. Clean rooms, nice mattress, no hassles, great breakfast. Next time in Williamsburg will stay here again. Thanks for everything!

"Best place to stay"
rickpremici, 03 Juin 2018

Staying at this hotel was fabulous. We received excellent service and the breakfast was great. The rooms were very clean and nice. All the staff were wonderful and the lobby was very inviting. I would definately stay there again.

"Great value for money in an ideal location"
mks1122, 31 Mai 2018

The hotel is located within a mile of colonial Williamsburg and has recently undergone major improvements. The rooms are clean and spacious. The front desk is efficient, friendly, and helpful (special shout out to Christine) and the price is reasonable.

"Good family visit"
Steven M, 27 Mai 2018

Good family visit. Bed not bad, pillows leave room for improvement. Breakfast was good bacon was too crispy. Eggs were good. Coffee was OK. Cracker barrel is close. refrigerator died but was replaced the next day with one that worked well but was quite noisy.

"Close to Colonial Williamsburg"
alphawolfie, 26 Mai 2018

This is a great place to stay. It is well located for the area and has lots of parking. Our room was large and the bathroom had a jetted tub. Plenty of hot water and the water pressure was excellent. Ice and vending was well located on our floor. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Even though the address is on Bypass Road, the hotel faces a different road so your GPS may have problems getting you to the hotel.

"Overnight Trip"
Mary D, 21 Mai 2018

This hotel was amazing. We went to Williamsburg as a relaxation getaway with our kids. This was a great hotel. Clean rooms, great breakfast and a great price!!! I would definitely stay here again. My little ones loved the pool. It was clean and a great temperature.

"Value for the price"
karl492, 17 Mai 2018

The room (and hotel) was clean and attractive. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The hotel was convenient to Colonial Williamsburg. I would stay there again and would recommend friends do the same.

"Great stay"
conniebeardsley, 30 Avril 2018

I liked everything we had a great time. The staff was nice and check inn was fast and so was check out.If you are looking for a quick nice get away this is the place, right in the middle of everything.

"Would stay again"
heather50_11, 29 Avril 2018

This hotel was one of the best we have stayed at recently. The first indication that it would be a great stay was the warm welcome from Vanessa, she even got us checked in a little early. The room was spotless, bathroom a bit small but very clean. We had no problem with the pool or hot tub, both functioned and clean. The best part of our stay was breakfast, and the wonderful PC (Prie). He was funny, friendly, and made the best bacon ever ;) The area was full of restaurants, and historical area very close by car. We got a great deal for the week, and would happily stay again.

"Williamsburg Visit"
Dan M, 22 Avril 2018

Good location with restaurants and historic district nearby. Will stay here again if in the Williamsburg VA area. Nice breakfast selection. Enjoyed the historic district and the nearby premium outlet shopping.

"Worst Western, Williamsburg"
MDFoxxer, 09 Avril 2018

Historically bad experience. Surly, rude staff including the desk manager. Unhelpful, unpleasant, and unapologetic. Keys malfunctioned requiring 3 trips to the desk; got an attitude when I asked for maintenance or someone to ensure we could get in room. Breakfast area could not accommodate number of guests and staff could not keep up. Rate included “free breakfast” which we never got; fortunately good options nearby, but not free!

"Weekend getaway"
Bonnie V, 08 Avril 2018

Hotel was reasonably priced but hallways, hotel room, and pool were outdated and not clean. Good location - central to restaurants and Busch Gardens. Updated breakfast/dining area. Staff was friendly. Would not stay again due to condition of hotel.

"Some improvements needed."
BarbaraS629, 07 Avril 2018

Hotel was very reasonably priced but needs better cleaning, some repairs, and updating. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast area was VERY busy. Location is good. Lobby area looks nice.

"Good Hotel...pool was “Eh”"
Damalis M, 04 Avril 2018

I rate this hotel 4 stars on account that my family had a good time, and I had some very sweet employees give some Great customer service. The front desk girls; Regina, Tye, and Alexis were so accommodating and kind. The service at breakfast was also very good. Access to coffee 24/7 was a huge plus for me. (I live off the stuff). The pool was very mediocre. It was dirty around the rim of the pool, the water was cloudy and greenish. My kids didn't care at all. The last day there was so much chlorine my eyes burned. My daughter swallowed some water and almost vomited. The jets in the jacuzzi only worked on 1 side. I sat on the working side.

"Great location and great value"
WiseTraveler78, 04 Avril 2018

Stayed here over Easter weekend and had a great stay. Breakfast was hot and plentiful, pool was warm and the price was 1/2 the price of others in the area that aren't as clean. Staff at this hotel are some of the nicest and most helpful we've come across in a small hotel like this. Very helpful when we had to move our reservation back 1 day because of a stomach bug with the kids and then worked with us when we needed to check out early to get on the road ahead of a snowstorm at home. We've tried other hotels in the region, but none are ever as clean, comfortable, safe and friendly as this Best Western. Location is perfect for going to Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens or just to eat. Number of pretty good restaurants you could walk to and a K-mart across the street if you forget anything.

"Not the best, not the worst"
uthao, 03 Avril 2018

It's an average hotel. It was fine. Nothing to really write about. Clean rooms. The pool was highly chlorinated so bring goggles. The free breakfast was good and saved us time in the morning. Close drive to everything.

"Well priced and in a great location"
Steve R, 02 Avril 2018

You'll have access to all the best parts of Williamsburg staying at this hotel. The rooms are spacious and well serviced, parking is plentiful and the staff will help in any way that they can. Difficult to find any negative but maybe the hotel is a little dated, but it's a great value place to stay.

"Polite Staff, Clean Rooms, BUT Horrible "Taco" Beds and Noisy Halls"
burtoja, 31 Mars 2018

I hate to leave negative reviews but the issues were serious enough to cause us to cut our vacation short by one night, so here is my brutally honest review: THE GOODS: The staff was very pleasant and accommodating. I especially give a shout out to the very friendly breakfast lady. The housekeeping staff clearly did an excellent job. The rooms were very clean. The front desk folks were helpful when we asked to be moved due to noise issues. The location is great. THE BADS: The main "bad" seems to be the most important thing...the beds...They were beyond HORRIBLE. I'm not terribly picky, but this bed was so worn out that it felt like I was on a piece of cardboard placed on top of some trash bags. It had the general shape of a taco so you always rolled to the center. It made such loud noise anytime I moved that it woke my kids up. I swapped to the other bed the second night and it was only marginally better--no taco shape but still horribly worn out cardboard feel. Beds seem pretty central to a hotel operation, so this NEEDS attention. The other issue was the acoustically live halls and walls/doors that seem to not stop sound at all. The kids in the hall until well after midnight slamming doors on those door latches was enough to drive a person to drink. I know the people are beyond the control of the management, but the doors could be made to not rock the whole building when the close. Another small thing, the breakfast room chairs looked nice but seem to have no structural bottoms under the cushions, I thought I was going to fall through the center in every chair I sat in. Again, I hate to leave such a negative review, but the hotel needs to address the issues it can. We typically love BWs and this one just needs some TLC. The staff was great but the facility wasn't.

"Quick Trip"
steeldiva, 25 Mars 2018

We had a quick trip to Williamsburg and enjoyed Busch Gardens for all of the pass holders. The hotel was clean and our room was as well. All of the staff were amazing. We are looking forward to a longer trip this summer.

"Wonderful from Check-in to check-out"
grandelis3318, 19 Mars 2018

I was in town for my wedding and had a few members of my family from out of town that was staying, as well. The staff were great & cheerful at all times of the day, (and there were some odd hours I was running around), but someone always greeted me by name in the lobby & checked to make sure I had everything I needed, including a late check-out to gather our things from the week long stay. They went above and beyond to assist in their part of making my wedding the best day of my life.

"Under construction and very unclean"
denif2018728, 17 Mars 2018

They ought to have disclosed on their site that this is heavily under construction. The second floor was full of holes in the ceiling and the rooms - had to be moved into another because of cleanliness issues- were both dirty. We have a two year old and do not like bringing her around old hotels under construction- never know what is coming out of the walls or ceilings. The lobby has been renovated, and is nice, however the rooms were dirty. Check in took an hour. Breakfast was not particularly edible so we left without eating. We only stayed 10 hours and ended up moving to another hotel for the following 5 nights. We are diamond members who found this stay most uncomfortable and unsatisfactory.

"The lovely employee working at the front desk makes me want to go back."
FamilyOfFour08, 13 Mars 2018

We arrived after a long drive from DC. Tired and hungry, I was welcomed by Tai (pronounced Tie, spelling unknown.). She was smiling and welcoming in her greeting. She checked me in lickety-split and gave me a quiet room and directions to a nearby food purveyor, My son and I returned with our food and said goodnight. She told me that if I had any problems with my room, she'd help us out with that. I thought she might be off shift in the morning when we came for breakfast, but with a warm assurance, she told me she'd be here in the morning. In the morning, I arrived a bit before the breakfast was displayed because we had to be at soccer at 7:10. She and the gentleman cooking the hot food gave me some quick and ready foods to go and made sure we didn't leave hungry. I soon found out that Tai had a difficult day ahead. She touched my heart. Despite her personal challenge, she put that all aside and managed to make me feel right at home. She's a keeper, BWP!! She deserves a raise. As for the hotel, the lobby is attractive, the elevator is in a weird place, the pool is a bonus, the beds could have been a little more comfortable, but the room was clean, and the cleaning staff was really lovely. The toilet in 329 needed some attention, but the maintenance department was working on that when we left. When we returned from the game, breakfast was over, but it had a mixture of hot food, fruit, cereal and oatmeal. Seemed to cover all the staples. The surrounding area has all the usual stores nearby, CVS, Aldi, 7-11 and not too far away is a really nice retail shopping center. Unless you're a stickler for a perfect bed, you'll be pleased with your stay.

"Great hotel in a good, close location to attractions"
UpstateNYer_10, 05 Mars 2018

We stayed for 3 days at this hotel while visiting Colonial Williamsburg plus three other area attractions. We were very pleased with our room and the hotel. The service was good and the desk was very accommodating. Breakfast was better than continental and although busy at times, it was workable. Cracker Barrel is right across the street and there are several restaurants in the area. We would stay here again.

"Amazing christmas time vacation"
Shallu V, 26 Février 2018

Stayed in this beautiful hotel while visiting christmastown in Busch gardens, VA. It;s a nice, budget friendly hotel. Room was clean, staff was friendly. Breakfast was OK. Indoor pool was great with late timings; so that you can enjoy your time in hot pool after long day's visit to Busch Gardens.

"Volleyball tournament trip"
Christa S, 20 Février 2018

Beautiful entrance. Budget friendly hotel. Friendly staff with excellent eye contact and eagerness to help serve the customer. Breakfast was filled with plenty of options. Indoor pool and hot tub was great for my family both nights. Beds were comfortable, with a lot of people. Hotel is convenient to all the great things to do in Williamsburg. Good choice for those on a budget.

"Amazing trip!"
Toni S, 04 Janvier 2018

This was an amazing Xmas weekend. Great hotel, clean with very friendly staff. Convenient location to Busch Gardens which was part of our room package which was unbelievably such a great price! I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!

"Hotel was very accommadating with any of our needs."
raymondz2018, 03 Janvier 2018

Rooms were very nice and staff very friendly. Breakfast was OK could have more fresh fruit available. I missed my banana every morning. There could have been more of a variety each morning instead of the same thing.

"After Christmas Getaway"
Y111QRbrendap, 03 Janvier 2018

My husband and I decided to take a three-night package to Williamsburg the day after Christmas to see the historical area and Christmas Town at Busch Gardens. The package offered this Best Western as one of the options, and we chose it for the great value and convenience of all the locations we wanted to see, including restaurants and shopping. We were pleased with overall quality and experience at this hotel. The first night we noticed the heat was not blowing warm air but we were tired, turned up the thermostat and went to bed without reporting the problem. In the morning it was still blowing cold air. We didn't report it until we returned the next evening and then it was too late for a maintenance person to check. The staff quickly offered to change our room which we accepted and it was conveniently across the hallway. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We would most likely stay here again.

"Another Nice Visit"
Family_In_Ardmore, 01 Janvier 2018

We have visited this Best Western on several occasions. It has a convenient location near the historic area (Busch Gardens is not too far away as well). The rooms are clean, the prices reasonable and the breakfast is nice as well. Service people are very helpful.

"Better than I'd hoped!"
M3729IKjulianas, 31 Décembre 2017

I wanted to take my boyfriend to Williamsburg and Busch Gardens for his birthday, and I figured I'd find a cheap hotel somewhere nearby. I got two nights in a room with a king bed PLUS two tickets to the Busch Gardens for under $200 through this hotel, so when we pulled up to a beautiful hotel with a modern entrance and lobby, I almost thought we were in the wrong spot. I've always thought of Best Westerns as cheap and outdated, but this place was anything but. The room was great, and I was surprised at how many amenities there were. It's less than 15 minutes from either the park or downtown Williamsburg, and there are plenty of options for a causal meal within a few blocks of the hotel. We will definetly stay here if we go back!

"The Place to Stay!"
Y2187PLmichaelo, 27 Décembre 2017

We really enjoyed the stay. The employees are very professional and courteous. The location is as close to everything you will need while you are away from home. I would definitely recommend Best Western to all I meet.

"Great stay"
Kimberly P, 24 Décembre 2017

This hotel was nice and the staff were friendly! The room was clean but the bed was very hard and uncomfortable. This should be an upgrade for the company. Overall I would stay again but for a short trip.

"Good value"
935brendan, 23 Décembre 2017

Nice hotel with very friendly staff. Very accommodating. Room was nice, no frills but that's ok, we only sleep there. Very clean, but lumpy bed. Breakfast was good but on Sunday they ran out of food by 9 am. They also need more space to dine, of course people were also being very leisurely.

"A trip to Christmas town"
mlester73, 18 Décembre 2017

We stayed at the Best Western Plus Historic Area Inn, Williamsburg, during a trip to Busch Gardens for the special event Christmas town. We picked this hotel because we are Best Western Rewards Members, and they offered King size beds that works for me, and my wife and 3 yr old. The hotel was nice and the staff was friendly and accommodating

"Run down"
Ernesto G, 18 Décembre 2017

The staff was ok, and the pool and pool area seemed to be taken care pretty well, the room was old and kinda falling apart, the bathroom was pretty bad, the tiles seemed to be barely hanging on. I would not recomend this Hotel if you have small children because the floors/carpet was disgusting.

"Very nice hotel with just 1 major flaw"
leetl319, 17 Décembre 2017

The hotel is very clean and the personnel were very friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable and the sheets did not come off the bed while we slept. The breakfast was very good, with enough room to accommodate many guests at the same time. The major issue I had was that the shower curtain was too short for the tub and water filled the floor, no matter how many towels you put down. They need a shower curtain that is 3" longer. Wi-Fi worked great. Plenty of parking. 17 minutes from Busch Gardens. One minor flaw--the coffee is weak.

"Much better than expected!!!"
ERat, 17 Décembre 2017

My family and I stayed 2 nights, while visiting Christmas Town at Busch Gardens, and were pleasantly surprised at the service and quality we received! The hotel's location is very central to all Williamsburg attractions. The front desk staff were a welcoming pleasure. Always a smile on their faces and a hello as you pass through the lobby. This is the type of service usually only found at higher end hotels and resorts. ALL employees we encountered were extremely polite and helpful. The rooms were clean and nicely appointed. Bathrooms are small but functional. The only thing that kept this hotel from being rated a 5 was the lack of ventilation fan in the bathroom. And the congestion at breakfast. Small bathrooms really need something to help dissipate steam after a shower. A word of warning, the breakfast area seats approximately 32 and there are times when ALL seats are full. I recommend being there at 7:00 am or 9:30 close to closing time. Other than these small inconveniences, everything was great at this location. To make everything even better was the price we paid! I found a deal on Groupon for $49 a night, a Friday and Saturday night stay. So the entire stay only cost us $130 including taxes. I was afraid we'd be put in the basement by going through Groupon, but that was not the case at all. We stayed in a room with a very nice king size bed and everything we needed to be happy. Finally, the indoor pool and jacuzzi were very clean and quite large! I fully recommend this property to anyone looking for a very comfortable stay, with friendly competent service, in a good location, and at a great price.

"Okay "
M P, 15 Décembre 2017

Breakfast area had many options but it felt congested with people at most times. Good food though. Try to avoid first floor rooms, if possible, as hallway traffic from employees and other guests got noticeably and disturbingly loud around 7:30 AM every morning. Mattress was dated and stiff and bathroom felt a little worn and dated. Water pressure was non-existent and toiletries were replaced once during a three night stay. Bath towels felt older and the carpets in the room were kinda dirty. The lady at check-in was less than friendly, to say the least, on the evening of 12/12/17. An employee was blaring loud rap music from their car on 12/15/17 that was vibrating the windows of the first floor rooms. Would stay here again, as it is reasonably priced, decent, and close to downtown, but would definitely suggest avoiding the first floor rooms. With a few easy improvements this would be a very good hotel.

"Hidden Gem"
willie1942, 13 Décembre 2017

We have stayed at this hotel many times and it has always exceeded our expectations.....it is clean and in a great area to visit all the Williamsburg attractions....the staff is very friendly and helpful and the breakfast is very good....we will continue to stay at this hotel

"Nice size rooms. Staff is very good at helping out."
sts10188, 12 Décembre 2017

The rooms were large, the TV and other minor things were not working in my original room. I was patient and waited with the facilities manager to fix it but it was a cable issue. He helped to get me moved into another room and Maryann from housekeeping was a doll. So accommodating and great staff that go out of their way to help and make you feel comfortable. Breakfast was ok, basic Danishes, powder eggs, canned fruit, and cereal.

"Great Hotel for Price and Location"
teresadI4046QW, 12 Décembre 2017

Great price, great location to all attractions, shopping and dining. Lots of choices at the complimentary breakfast. The hotel is well appointed, clean and the holiday decorations were beautiful. The staff was friendly and helpful. I have stayed here numerous times in the past and this hotel will remain my go to for trips to Williamsburg. Convenient to the historic area, William & Mary, shopping, restaurants and Busch Gardens.

"Your Safety is Not Guaranteed"
Fred085, 08 Décembre 2017

This evening someone was able to open my room while I was sleeping. Fortunately, I had used the latch on my room and they did not gain access as I was inside. However, they did manage to open the door which had been double locked. Calling the front desk, I was told that there had been a mistake. You can imagine how safe I now feel knowing that keys to rooms are indiscriminately issued. Ironically today, I was out all morning and returned midafternoon to find my room had never been cleaned. It was never serviced today. Cheap prices, but with management making these kinds of mistakes, you might be better off somewhere else in Williamsburg.

"Reasonably Priced, Close to all attractions !"
Matt S, 06 Décembre 2017

Stayed at the BW Plus Historic for the Grand Illumination celebration held in colonial Williamsburg . The hotel staff was courteous, the rooms were clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the microwave and small fridge. The bed was comfortable and a surplus of pillows were provided ( nice touch ) The pool was nice and we took advantage of the hot tub after days of much walking . Only negatives were slow elevators, and subpar complimentary breakfast, but hey it was complimentary . Second time staying here, and certainly would not hesitate choosing for future visits to area. Extremely convenient to old town Williamsburg, close to Busch Gardens and Yankee Candle and many restaurants .

"not handicap accessible"

"Nice location"
693nguyenv, 30 Novembre 2017

Good location, nice service and good quality. Strongly recommend to those planning to visit Williamsburg in near future. From this hotel, most of tourism sites can be reached easily. My family stayed 3 nights and we all felt very satisfied.

"Good Experience"
Judith S, 29 Novembre 2017

The staff was friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and everything was in working order. The only complaint I had was that the bed was not very comfortable and the mattress cover bunched up under the fitted sheet every time I turned over causing my sleep to be interrupted frequently to smooth it out.

"No heat...not exactly welcomed"
Sue M, 26 Novembre 2017

When we checked in the man behind the desk was busy on his cell phone, I got the impression I was bothering him. Whe we got to the room the heat didn't work. I called and he said wait a half an hour if it doesn't work stop down for a new room. When I went down he said Lucky you I have another room...never apologized or offered to help. The heat in the next room wasn't exactly warm either. Not sure what is up but never had trouble with heat before. Breakfast was ok..toasters didn't work and the coffee was from a machine and was horrible.

"First time visitor"
kookenout, 26 Novembre 2017

The hotel was ok- nothing spectacular. The biggest problem was the breakfast area. The room was very tight and not much room to move. When you went through the line, you would have to turn back and go the way you came. All along you are running into people who are waiting for toast or bagels, or just refills on food. You had to squeeze by everyone. Perhaps it was just a busy weekend as there was a soccer tournament in the area. That just made breakfast even worse.

"Well Located for restaurants"
Kevin H, 26 Novembre 2017

This value for money property is in the hotel/restaurant area .It has one of the nicest breakfast rooms I've seen at a BW property -the lobby area is attractive and the staff polite. My room and that of friends had all the necessary items but looked very much in need of a refreshment -it was clean but somewhat depressing ,as was the dated bathroom.

"Wanted to like it here, but rude staff and no towels to be found, anywhere!"
tara l, 25 Novembre 2017

Stayed here for 3 nights over Thanksgiving. Check in was easy but the man behind the desk was clearly bored and it showed. Our room was REALLY HOT when we got there, but thermostat was set to 67. We turned it off since it was certainly not 67. The next morning, we mentioned it to the desk staff and also told them we would need more than the 2 bath towels that we were provided. We left for the day and upon returning, went to the pool. It was crowded and nobody had pool towels. No towels in the pool area towel spot. We let the front desk know and the woman behind the desk seemed quite irritated. While at the pool, I overheard that others had let her know, earlier, too. About 30 minutes later, she came into the pool area and emptied the used towel bin. She informed another guest she would have to launder them and then dry them, and it would be a while. Meanwhile, I grabbed a towel from my room to bring down. We still had just the two. The same woman informed my boyfriend that we are not to use the room towels at the pool. I'm a middle aged woman and will not be moving about the hotel in my swim suit! As it was, the floors and elevators were soaked due to others drip drying on the way to their rooms. She was scolding my boyfriend and other guests for using room towels. We left and went back to the room, but now we were down one towel, leaving us with just one. We asked for more again. The next day, we returned to the pool, but brought last room towel since housekeeping didn't give us any others on the new day. Housekeeping didn't restock our room towels, so we complained again. Sure enough, there were no towels at the pool and others were talking about how they didn't have any in their room. I realize that it was a holiday, but they should have been prepared. Since they weren't, there was no reason for the night desk woman to have taken any attitude with the guests. The man behind the counter didn't seem phased by any of this, but the woman behind the desk certainly did and was unpleasant. In contrast, the morning desk staff was very kind and helpful. The hotel garbage cans were overflowing, the room wasn't cleaned well, and certainly wasn't restocked in the bathroom. No new shampoo, towels, etc. (all things we were using). I do feel for the fact that people are working on a holiday, but since they are, they should try and make the experience of their guests welcoming. In this case, the evening desk staff most definitely did not. I do come to Williamsburg a few times a year. I was so disappointed with my experience here. There are many other options close by, probably cleaner and friendlier.

"Good hotel for the money."
105mikee, 12 Novembre 2017

Stayed here while going to Busch Gardens, clean room and overall a good hotel for the money. The location is good for all the Williamsburg sites. Staff was friendly and no issues with check in, the indoor pool is well kept up as well.

"A solid choice...."
DLPinMD, 08 Novembre 2017

A bunch of us head to Williamsburg every year in October to get our golf fix. This is the first time I've stayed at the Best Western. Found it to be a very good value. The room was clean and comfortable. Had a mini fridge and microwave. Good water pressure and hot water supply. The only downside was poor exhaust in the bathroom. It really steamed up when showering. Had a very nice breakfast bar area. One of the cleanest I've ever seen! The staff does a great job of keeping the area clean and stocked. Sadly didn't see anyone leaving any tippage! C'mon people! The property is in a great location, a number of good eating/drinking options within an easy walk! See you next October!

The stay at this hotel was just great. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The free breakfast was very good. A nice variety. I will come back again. It across the street from Cracker Barrel and K Mart.

"Nice Place to Stay while in Williamsburg"
Bruce B, 03 Novembre 2017

My wife and I spent three nights in Williamsburg on a circle tour of Virginia and DC. The hotel was convenient to restaurants and to the Historic area. The rooms were very nice and the staff and breakfasts were good. We enjoyed the Best Western Plus and would stay there again. The stay was a good value. Bruce B

"Never again"
tms934, 31 Octobre 2017

We got this hotel through Groupon. We stayed here to go to Bush Gardens. Unfriendly staff, dirty hotel, we got stuck in elevator with children, breakfast staff were rude and hair should be pulled back when working around food. We killed a huge roach in our room. Let's just say you get what you pay for!

"Modest fix in comfort to otherwise very good stay"
nicholassV57HP, 29 Octobre 2017

We were very happy with all aspects and measures of quality during our stay. The only easily reperable problem was the sub-standard quality of seats in the dining room. The seat cushions provide almost no cushioning, as the thin, cushioned upholstery sinks into the seat well, and one's thighs uncomfortably press against thighs. Once fixed, the hotel will be a pleasure in all other respects.

"Vacation Stay"
328debral, 29 Octobre 2017

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at your hotel. We found the staff to be most pleasant and very helpful. Our room was clean and the bed was very comfy. We enjoyed relaxing in our room after a busy day visiting Williamsburg and surrounding attractions.

"Best Western Williamsburg, VA"
Gregory G, 28 Octobre 2017

This hotel was adequate but a little dated. The light switches etc are really outdated. I will commend them on the linen. It was very clean and upon inspection of entire bed it was basically brand new. The breakfast was pretty good. I went down to breakfast about 1030 and it was basically gone. I feel they should do a better job keeping that replenished for late risers. Overall, it was pleasant and the staff are really nice. I would recommend this location after updates are made.

"Awesome indoor pool area!"
George S, 27 Octobre 2017

Hotel itself is getting frumpy but was clean and quiet. Great choices for breakfast and the lady working it was really hustling. Beds and pillows were comfortable but room was small as was the bathroom. Good place to stay and very convenient.

"Most awful hotel one can think of"
Alexandraviatrix, 24 Octobre 2017

Beware of staying at this hotel! The state of our room is shabby. Everything is dirty. There was even a tuft of hair in the bed as we moved in. A sock of a former guest was laying on the floor. At 8 am the housekeeping stated knocking at our door, although we had put the “Don't disturb”-sign. The housekeeping repeated knocking and calling for coming in 5 times in the next 90 minutes. As we left the room for our sight-seeing tour at 11am, we took in the “Don't disturb”-sign. As we came back in the evening, we found our room not made! The housekeeping just had helped itself putting the “Don't dusturb”-sign at our door. We managed to get new towels from the friendly and helpfull front desk employee. We never stayed at a US hotel tolerating such behavior of its houskeeping. The room is humid, as the bathroom has no air installation and the small window of the room cannot be opened. Therefore, the room smells bad. Whatever we brought into our room now also smells bad. We never stayed at a hotel this shabby in the US. We will report to our travel agency.

"Great Location"
Paula V, 23 Octobre 2017

Room was great for the price. Plenty of choices close by for food and drink. The location was perfect for getting to the visitor center, Colonial Williamsburg, and various other sights. I was also impressed by how quiet the room was.

"Great stay"
Emily C, 22 Octobre 2017

We came to visit my sister who is at grad school at WandM. The staff was awesome, the property was beautiful, a good walk, but walking distance to Colonial Williamsburg. As a Best Western employee I was impressed by the caringness of the staff.

"Great location in Williamsburg"
Vandola2, 20 Octobre 2017

This BW has a great location making it quick and easy to get to both the Premium Outlets along with Colonial Williamsburg. I especially love the pool and hot tub which are both very big and stay open until 11 pm each night which makes for a great ending to a day full of shopping and sight seeing. Breakfast is very good and the staff is very helpful and friendly. Beds and bedding are great along with spacious rooms.

"Great area!"
315marciag, 19 Octobre 2017

It was a pleasant stay. The breakfast area was pretty and well maintained. A few chairs or bench outside would be nice. I like to sit outside. Staff was pleasant. Rooms nice for price. Everything worked, nice tub and shower. Loved the refrigerator and microwave. Nice touch.

"hotel review"
marylN1246KI, 14 Octobre 2017

Over charged my credit card by $35.00 and I had a terrible time getting a refund from them. The carpets were very dirty and needed to be replaced. The walls in our room were dirty and so were the hallway walls. Hotel needs a total redo. This hotel should not be rated a Best Western Plus all others were much nicer.

"Convenient to Colonial Williamsburg"
Michele B, 13 Octobre 2017

Typical hotel room. Air conditioner worked well but was a bit loud. Swimming pool and hot tub came in handy after a day of walking Williamsburg. We were in Room 200, across from the stairs. The door needs a bit of greasing, very squeaky and the door is used a lot. Nice breakfast area.

"Overall good stay"
MaudNico93, 09 Octobre 2017

We came back today from a 3-night stay at this hotel. It is very well located (within just a few minutes of colonial williamsburg, busch gardens, and anything else you'd want to do in the area). We were surprised at first to be located on the 1st floor, which is where pet owners stay. It was obviously our mistake for not checking that the hotel was pet-friendly, but since there were 3 other floors in the hotel, it was a surprise to be located there (especially with 2 toddlers, being in the room during nap time with several dogs barking because their owners leave them in the room all day long). We were able to change room after one night, thanks to the hard work and excellent customer service skills of the front desk gentleman (I think his name is Charles but am not sure 100%). Charles was very helpful (as every staff member we talked to), handled a difficult situation with another customer in a VERY professional manner (another pet owner with obvious anger management issues). Our new room was as clean as the first one, beds comfortable (not pillows though, but that's probably a personal preference). Bathroom is quite small (we're thin people and had a hard time navigating getting in/out of the bathroom). The pool is clean and nice, and was never crowded when we were there. Breakfast is okay - large choice but not kids friendly regarding cereal choice (it's a good thing we brought our own). Pancakes not good but everything else tasted good overall (bread, fruits, juice, tea, bacon). Yogurts were however perished by one week and still being offered...so there were a few tiny details that bothered us but it was overall a good experience. I forgot to praise the housekeeping staff that was so friendly and retrieved 2 forgotten items when we switched rooms (instead of throwing them away, they brought our items at the front desk, which was much appreciated!). If you travel like us with small children and on a budget, this hotel is for you. If you have super high standards you should probably stay elsewhere.

"Very good stay."
Donna P, 07 Octobre 2017

Room was very clean, beds comfortable, lots of flat surface to keep stuff, frig kept drinks nice and cold, breakfast had alot of choices, the folks at the front desk were awesome and gave us a great suggestion for lunch.

"Excellent stay"
H7990MUanneh, 05 Octobre 2017

We had a group of special needs adults so had to be somewhat selective in room choices. Staff were most accommodating in meeting our needs. Everyone was friendly, & helpful. The rooms were clean & comfortable. The pool was very nice & also very busy the evening of our stay. Breakfast was a huge benefit for our group saving us a lot of time. The food was fresh with lots of choices including fresh fruit, cereal, pancakes, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

"Great stay at Best Western"
316allenj, 04 Octobre 2017

All things were great at this hotel, Clean rooms, good breakfast, and friendly staff. I would highly recommend this hotel. There were no problems and had a very restful night. Easy checkout and good selection of breakfast items.

"Dirty rooms, disgusting breakfast"
debragH7785ZO, 02 Octobre 2017

When I checked in, there was dirty washclothes in the shower from the person that stayed before me. It took 2 days to get them removed. Then I found dirty underwear in my room that were definitely not mine. Housekeeping needs to step it up, I don't like paying over $300 for 3 nights to stay in filth. The eggs and bacon and breakfast were disgusting, I took one bite and almost puked. They did have other options however that were ok. The front desk staff were professional and friendly.

"Good short term stay hotel"
C9298ZYlisab, 01 Octobre 2017

A good short term stay hotel while visiting Williamsburg and exploring the area. Breakfast lacks quality and options so we ate out for breakfast during our stay. Fitness Center needs more options and cool down the jacuzzi a little bit.

"Just average"
Kristine_LongIsland, 25 Septembre 2017

We stayed at this Best Western for a quick night as we needed a stopping point on a long road trip. We have stayed at many Best Western properties and this one was far from the worst, but no where near the best. Room rate was reasonable in comparison to neighboring hotels. Location is great...quick drive to Colonial Williamsburg. Plenty of nearby restaurants to choose from. We arrived mid-afternoon and check-in was fast, friendly and efficient. Our king room was located on the first floor, a few doors down from the lobby. The room was ok, definitely could use some updating. Some areas were worn and there was a strong perfume smell in the room upon entering. Beds were comfortable and AC worked well but did kick on and off quite a bit. Unfortunately, we heard a lot of noise in the hallway. Since our room was right off the lobby, we heard every guest as they passed through to the elevators. We did not use the pool, however it did look nice and many guests were using the facility. We left before breakfast was offered. The area looked nice, but it wasn't spacious. I could imagine it being very crowded in the morning. Overall, it was just an average stay. I would consider staying again, if the price was right. Otherwise I would definitely try a neighboring hotel.

"Beautiful Hotel, great price, very good breakfast"
Linda M, 24 Septembre 2017

This hotel was beautiful, immaculately clean and the staff was very friendly. They had a very good breakfast and were located a convenient distance from Colonial Williamsburg. We would definitely stay here again if we're in that area and would recommend it to others visiting Colonial Williamsburg. The price was reasonable and overall a great value.

"thanks for the memories"
KJB51862, 19 Septembre 2017

"Wonderful Stay at Best Western Hotel"
stephenscitymom, 19 Septembre 2017

My husband and I planned a quick getaway to celebrate his birthday. We like Williamsburg because it's within a few hours drive from our home in Stephens City. We liked the Best Western because in addition to low prices, they offer comfortable beds, clean linens and great continental breakfast. In this case, the breakfast was above and beyond just toast and coffee. They offered bacon, scrambled eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, potatoes, muffins, cereal, yogurt and juice and coffee. The coffee was delicious! (And I've been in hotels with bad coffee before - so this is important!) if you are planning to head to Williamsburg, definitely give this hotel a try. They have refurbished all their lobby furniture and buffet area furniture. It felt much more like a 4 star hotel without the expense!

"Weekend getaway"
christinemC7377UI, 17 Septembre 2017

Excellent value, clean room, good location. The WiFi connection was lost a number of times, but reconnected quickly. Breakfast was OK, satisfactory for a quick meal. coffee not good, did not taste fresh.

"good deal, nice place"
patrickhK3037FD, 14 Septembre 2017

Excellent value - I've stayed at places which cost twice as much and weren't half as nice. Everything was clean. The staff were all polite and helpful. Breakfast is a real meal, not a discounted going-through of the motions. I would stay there again.

"Good Location, Good Price, Good Stay"
Frederick L, 11 Septembre 2017

Located centrally to everything Hotel... from Historic area out to Lightfoot shopping... Friendly staff and an easy check in... Decent sized room with frig and micro oven... Cleanest whitest breakfast area I have ever seen...

"What is this?xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
billt724, 08 Septembre 2017

Hotel does not meet my expectations of a Best Western Plus hotel. The room was not clean and the "hot breakfast" was not available during the hours it was supposed to be offered. The bed, however, was comfortable. The pillows were too large and when I asked the front desk if they had any smaller pillows they said no, but I could buy one at the K-Mart across the street if I wanted one. Ok, if they don't have any, but not okay to suggest I go to K-Mart and buy my own.

"Great Location"
Lisa A, 06 Septembre 2017

Stayed here in August with some friends before a work conference. Our stay was great, and very close to Colonial Williamsburg. There are also quite a few dining options in the area. We had two rooms, both were clean and well appointed. The staff were kind an courteous. The only issue (very minor) was that the breakfast room was always packed, so we opted to eat elsewhere.

"Williamsburg - Best Western"
josegS9241IP, 06 Septembre 2017

Very poor condition and in state of decay. Stale and poor appearance after check in. Outdated and musty rooms. Corridors are not well ventilated and hot. The entire hotel needs to be Overhauled and Upgraded.

"Good place to stay in the Historic Triangle"
Mark P, 05 Septembre 2017

Good place to stay in the Historic Triangle. Easy walk to several restaurants, a grocery store and even a department store (KMart). The pool area is offset from the main building, so no noise or chlorine smell issues. The breakfast offered lots of choice.

"Awesome Stay"
donnadE4726HM, 04 Septembre 2017

We stayed 5 days and had the best stay of our trip. great pool and hot tub. professional, wonderful staff front desk, housekeeping and breakfast staff. Towels soft and plentiful even at pool and refilled regularly. rooms very nice, clean and the most comfortable beds. Breakfast hot and many different choices and kept so clean with an outside veranda if you choose to eat there instead of in the beautiful dinning area. Close to all the surrounding areas Jamestown, Colonial Williamsburg, Bush Gardens and so many restaurants close by even if you wish to walk or take out. Just a wonderful place to stay.....Would recommend to all families, solo, business or couples they have a great place!

"Vacation Stay"
michaelcL3567OR, 03 Septembre 2017

The staff were very friendly and the room was decent for it's price. We did get stuck in the elevator for about 5 minutes and had to use the emergency phone for someone to fix it and let us out. All in all, it wasn't too bad.

"Hotel on par with Hampton Inn across the street"
Michael G, 30 Août 2017

This hotel was excellent and a great value. We've stayed at the Hampton Inn across the street and for half the price, this hotel was just as nice if not nicer. Breakfast was better, rooms were bigger and we were more than satisfied with this find.

"Clean - You get what you pay for"
NYMetroMom, 29 Août 2017

We were here for two nights while visiting with family and looking at the area for possible retirement one day. We only needed someplace to rest our heads. The hotel is a little worn, some scratched furniture, really slow elevator (only one ever seemed to be working). The good: the lobby is attractive, the rooms are clean, they provide many pillows and they are comfortable. The less than good: the beds are very hard (no pillow tops here), our refrigerator wasn't working, and the breakfast is chaotic and crowded. The guests are at that breakfast bar as if it's the last mediocre defrosted mini-cinnamon roll they'll ever have. The breakfast is just OK - but super crowded on the Sunday morning we were there. The doors slamming near ours woke me up a number of times and the A/C cycled on and off all night. Finally, when we checked out I told the front desk lady the fridge wasn't working, she gave me one of those "uh-huh", not even looking up. I commented that I'm telling her so other guests wouldn't have to throw out their food, so she could have it fixed or replaced. She didn't even look up at me. In less than a second she asked "and was everything with your stay good?" - I said well other than having to throw out my food because the fridge wasn't working it was fine. No response. So - if you need a budget clean place to sleep this Best Western will fit the bill. Just check the fridge before you expect your food to stay cold.

"Great Experience"
Suzanne C, 28 Août 2017

Loved this hotel! Beautiful inside and out. Our room was so clean and warmly decorated. We enjoyed the pool and breakfast. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was close to Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens and Water Country USA. Walking distance to restaurants. We had a great time and highly recommend this hotel!

"Good for what it is"
Patricianeid, 23 Août 2017

Affordable and clean place to spend a night. Went with a friend and stopped for the night and it did the basic: friendly staff, clean, and that's about it. You can probably skip the free breakfast there and go elsewhere to have a better meal. I do recommend going if you need to stop in the area, but the hotel is not a travel destination.

"Good place"
14tamarrag, 23 Août 2017

the place was clean. Staff very polite and helpful. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Very convenient to local stores, restaurants and Busch gardens and Water Country USA. The room was always clean. It was helpful being provided the coupon book and area activites book.

"Great staff"
mara0429, 22 Août 2017

"Very friendly staff. Great location"
JudeAkron, 16 Août 2017

The staff here is the nicest we have ever encountered in a motel. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The location was very convenient to attractions, dining and shopping, but still quiet. The only downside was the size of the breakfast room. The breakfast was okay for a free meal.

"enjoyable time"
ecooper1126, 16 Août 2017

the decor in this hotel lobby is tasteful. The black and white really popped. The rooms were really nice and it had a microwave and refrigerator, both of which we used. I loved it that I could adjust the temperature in my room. When the kids returned from the pool it was quite cool in the room but I could switch to warm air. The bathrooms are updated and we loved the overall service. The indoor pool and jacuzzi was a hit with my crew; nice size pool and closed at 11PM. I will come here again without hesitation, close to my kids favorite eating places (Golden Coral, Cracker Barrel, Chipolte

"Nice place overall"
P7904GYsusank, 12 Août 2017

"Too dark to tell"
RLloyd992, 08 Août 2017

So... what's something that will wake you up at 4 in the morning and have you up for the rest of the morning? A fire alarm!!! Yes, a fire alarm rang out around 430 in the morning! First they said no need to vacate, then they told us we had to vacate for the fire department. So here we are, our family of 5 including a 1 year old (who was asleep, but guess who didn't go back to sleep!!), along with most of the hotel guests, standing outside waiting for the FD to give us the all clear! Finally made it back inside about 30 minutes later, but the damage was done. We didn't get back to sleep, and then we had to drive 5 hours home! And of course, no credit or apology or anything from the hotel! So yea... not a fun night for us here. Now about the room: ugh! I think that sums it up, but just in case you need more detail, here it is: the room was small and dark. You can tell it's an old hotel, and the rooms will remind you of that constantly. Even with all 3 lamps on in the room, it was still really dark. I kept expecting to see a bug crawl out of the shadows. The bathroom was also small, and it looked as if the maid just threw the towels under the sink. At least they were clean. Our sheets had stains on them, but the stains looks more like it got caught in an old washing machine. If they did some redecorating, you can tell it all went into the lobby/breakfast area. That was seriously the only nice view of the hotel. The food for breakfast was okay, nothing spectacular. But the tables and chairs were really pretty and clean. All in all, it was less than satisfactory, and I will not be booking at this or any Best Western again.

"Great Value in Williamsburg"
MongoLobo, 07 Août 2017

A top value for the money in a very crowded and sometimes hard to book tourist area. Looks like some recent updates as well (ie new carpet and an expanded breakfast area). We have stayed at some other hotels in the area offering similar features but at nearly double the price.

"Friendliest Hotel Stay Ever!"
brandontW2161PH, 07 Août 2017

My first impression was the fresh and clean smell in the lobby! The front desk staff was very easy to work with and did a early check in for us even though our room wasn't ready yet so it would be easier when the time came to come back for check in. The front desk staff asked why we were visiting the area and we informed them it was for our 10 yr wedding anniversary. Later that evening after settling into our room the staff dropped off a bottle of wine and a signed anniversary card. It was the nicest thing any hotel had ever done for us. Plus the front desk staff called to check on us twice over our stay. Everyone from the maids, breakfast staff and front desk staff was super friendly and always had a smile. Our room was super clean and very up to date. The pool was clean and had plenty of seats. We really enjoyed our stay and definitely will be going back with our kids.

"Great hotel near everything"
lynnekz, 05 Août 2017

We had two adjoining rooms for our family. The rooms were clean. The beds were comfortable. The microwave and fridge in each room was a plus because we brought some snacks, bottled water, and sodas from home to save money. The only annoyance was that we brought a portable dvd player from home so the kids could their favorite movies but there wasn't an electrical outlet anywhere near the TV that could be used to plug it in. Because so many people use their phones or other devices to stream/play movies it would be helpful to have an outlet available near the TV so the battery on the device doesn't die part way through the movie. Breakfast was good but you need to get there before 9am or risk them running out of bacon. There were always eggs, muffins, toast, bagels, cereals available even close to 10am. The staff was very friendly. They also gave us a page of door to door directions to every attraction around when we checked in so we never had any trouble getting to where we wanted to go.

"good hotel"
Larry M, 05 Août 2017

stayed at this hotel many time over the years,staff very helpful and take care of any problems that come up right away.beds nice and comfortable,room cleaned and taken care up with plenty of light in room,would recommended thie hotel to any one. good location to everything.

"Nice stay"
BobbyHill03, 01 Août 2017

This was a nice hotel in town. It wasn't too expensive compared to many other places in town. There were a couple areas in the hotel that could be updated but overall it was fairly modern. The staff was always helpful when we asked for recommendations.

"Perfect for our needs"
Stephanie S, 31 Juillet 2017

We booked this hotel based on the recommendation of my co-worker. We wanted an affordable (but clean) place to stay for 2 nights as we did the tourist thing in Williamsburg. Most of the reviews were good, so I took a chance and booked it. We were extremely pleased when we got here. Staff was extremely friendly, rooms were clean and the amenities were perfect for our family (free breakfast - which was good - and an indoor pool). This hotel is literally only about 5-10 minutes from the historic district and Busch Gardens as well as tons of restaurants and the Outlets. It would definitely stay here again!

"As always, great stay at this location"
Arthur C, 29 Juillet 2017

This Best Western location never fails to impress me. My wife and I have stayed at this location at lease 6 - 8 times. It is always our first choice when staying overnight in Williamsburg. Looking forward to our next stay.

"it was good for the price"
Ray A, 29 Juillet 2017

it was good for the price.is an old hotel but kept clean.friendly employes.breakfast was pretty decent.the ac was a little to loud.only one ice machine working so we need to keep going to 4 floor to get ice.

"Great service, dated but clean rooms and decent breakfast"
Susan B, 25 Juillet 2017

The service at the desk throughout our 24 hour stay was outstanding, friendly and helpful. They should be commended. The physical state of the hotel needs some attention. The rooms were clean but definitely dated. The breakfast area seemed incongruous with the rest of the hotel. It was one of the least expensive options of similar type hotels which is why I chose it for our short stay. It was perfectly adequate for our needs. The friendliness of the place made it worthwhile.

"Do not recommend!"
tracycr, 23 Juillet 2017

We stayed in room 217 from July 18-21. The first indication that the hotel had low standards was upon walking in through very dirty and smudged doors. Front staff was nice at check-in. The room was very dusty and the carpet did not look vacuumed. There were visible stains (what looked like old blood) on the white bed covers. They were obviously old as the bed covers smelled clean. Grabbed a hand towel to dry my hands and it too was stained with what looked to be old blood. I set it aside and grabbed another, which was clean. There was dirt on the tub floor. I kept telling myself that these are the things that I should expect as this is a low-end budget hotel. Upon pulling the cover down to go to bed, there was dirt in/on the sheets. The other bed had the same situation but we brushed it off and went to bed. Again, I told myself that this is what you get with this type of hotel. We went with the flow and stayed the three nights we were scheduled to. The room stayed dirty and the stains were still on the bed covers as they were never changed despite us telling the front desk and asking for them to be changed. We also asked for our room to be cleaned and especially vacuumed. None of the cleaning we requested was done! Then on our last day, Thursday, we got stuck in the elevator. The emergency phone in the elevator did not work and we rang and rang the bell (alarm). Finally, I called 911 when there was no reception to google the hotel phone number to call the front desk. I guess this must be a regular problem as finally the door opened and a front desk person was there. I was very upset and said that the emergency phone did not work. The front desk girl said "I kept saying hello into it". I said that it was dead and there was not sound. She picked it up and listened and said I was right. She apologized and offered us each a bottle of water. We went to the lobby (where we were headed to look up restaurants for dinner) and used a lobby computer. The front desk girl gave each of us a bottle of water but never asked us who we were or our room number. We hung out waiting for a manager to come talk to us as we assumed that was proper protocol. But we were actually ignored. We got 2 bottles of water and 1 apology! The firefighters came in and spoke to us. They actually spent longer making sure that we were ok than the front desk girl did. I was shocked that there was no manager who spoke to us and no compensation. Quality hotels would have done things differently! When we checked out on Friday, the front desk people never asked how our stay was. I do not recommend this hotel and agree with people who have reviewed ahead of me and expressed how the hotel could have such great reviews.

"Beware-Don't get sucked in by these ratings!"
bevmc7, 22 Juillet 2017

I have no idea how this hotel can have all these good reviews. It is dated and not clean. The chlorine in the pool will take your breath away because the pool area is like a sauna with no ventilation. The rooms were just gross. The mattresses were awful. I discovered all these Best Western Hotels are not owned by Best Western.... They are owned franchises. Obviously this franchise owner could care less about the Best Western name & reputation. The breakfast area is far from adequate seating & the area itself is not clean. Buyer beware on this one. Move on. I sure will.

"Good Hotel & Location"
darmarDM, 19 Juillet 2017

My Wife and I stayed here for 2 nights in June. The rooms were very clean and a good size, with a very comfortable bed. The staff were very friendly and happy to provide any assistance we needed for the hotel or getting around Williamsburg. Breakfast was good, but a little hectic as the hotel was busy. However, it was all you need to start the day, including a small selection of hot food. We used the pool and whirlpool. Both were good and a nice temperature. This is a well priced good standard hotel and we'd happily return if we visit the area again.

"Could not have been much better"
CECKinston, 17 Juillet 2017

The rooms were very clean. The employees always greeted us with a smile and a hell-o, from check in to when we were passing any one in the hallway to check out. Pool areas were clean and towels were provided. The breakfast was great, with eggs and bacon on one day and sausage the next. Every one was most helpful, and check out we were once again greeted with a smile and an invitation to return. This stay was for a getaway and I couldn't have asked for the stay to have been much nicer. Second time we have stayed there and will definitely be back.

first time staying at this or any other BW. Clean, very well priced, excellent location to attractions and shopping, and welcoming. Could not believe how nice the staff was. Our stay was myself and wife but I can see why many families choose to stay here.

"Fabulous stay!"
Burnita R, 15 Juillet 2017

We stayed here three nights on a recent trip to the Williamsburg area. The hotel was clean, the rooms were spacious, and the staff was very attentive and helpful with directions and recommendations. I highly recommend if you are looking for a great hotel in a beautiful city.

Danielle D, 15 Juillet 2017

Stayed here for 2 nights while the rooms was nice the unessary charge that was not brought to my attention. After they happily took the cash I paid for all 2 nights plus another additional $165 I will not be staying here again. Front desk was absolutely no help at all. Thanks for giving me horrible hotel experience

"Family vacation"
rigale2017, 12 Juillet 2017

Friendly staff and clean. Great area, in the middle of all tourist attractions. Walking distance to Kmart , Dairy Queen and restaurants. Pool was clean and fitness room was clean. Had no problems during our family vacation.

"Good"
Lifebeach14, 11 Juillet 2017

Excellent front desk service and attention. Daily complementary breakfast was good. Make your own waffle is a frozen/toaster one. Not a fresh make from scratch type that I expected. My daughter love the pool. Fairly recently renovated; was not to the detail. Stayed at second floor and the hallway was melting hot. Awesome to sleep and go, not the type of hotel to stay in the room and lay back.

"Fair"
Justaguy061, 10 Juillet 2017

All in all, it was worth the money, however not by much. The check in was exceptional, the front staff were very pleasant and professional. The lobby area is nice, large and comfortable. The room was OK. It was clean enough, although not sparkling, the bathroom could have been cleaner. There was no type of clothes hanger area or closet, and no iron in the room. With no micro or fridge, it is a challenge to find an ice bucket. They do have free WiFi, however the connection is poor.

"Nice accommodations"
674rosieh, 10 Juillet 2017

Room was perfect for an overnight stay. Conveniently located right near Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. Staff was very helpful. Loved the decor of the breakfast/eating area. Only issue I had was my back did not like the mattress very much but thats more a preference thing. Other than that I would stay there again if Im in the area.

"Great place"
jhuffman0008, 09 Juillet 2017

Rooms were very clean. Stay was nice and quiet. They offered a good variety of food for breakfast. Very good location. Staff was friendly and professional. I would definitely stay here again the next time I visit the Williamsburg area.

"Not too bad"
Christy K, 06 Juillet 2017

Stayed here while visiting Bush Gardens. The hotel is nice enough and the customer service is on point. The breakfast in the mornings, though, is chaos to the extreme!!!! It was very frustrating and disappointing. And the coffee was weak. Our room never got cold enough even though we adjusted the temperature controls. And there is no fan in the bathrooms to help alleviate steam. It is right across the street from a K-Mart and several restaurants which is convenient.

"The Best of the West"
Rana W, 06 Juillet 2017

What a great time we had at this location. Clean location, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Thanks to all the staff for your hospitality. Made my birthday, cake and card left in room at my arrival. They say save the best for last, and this was the ladder location of our vacation. Wilson Family

"Great customer service "
KPL325, 04 Juillet 2017

We stayed here this past week for our family vacation. The hotel is about 7 miles to Busch Gardens and Water Country. There are lots of restaurants less than a mile away. The breakfast was good and well stocked. They continually refilled the foods stations. The staff was pleasant and always ready to help.

"great experience"
mitchells172017, 04 Juillet 2017

Extremely friendly and professional employees, great service. Clean rooms and a great location, great value for my money. I recommend this best western hotel to anyone who's traveling with family as well as their pets.

"Great location, great amenities, great price"
amylr71d, 03 Juillet 2017

We recently spent three nights at this hotel, while visiting the Historic Triangle. Check in was quick and easy. They gave us a coupon book, with a map, and a printed list of directions to various "hot spots" in the area. We were on the third floor (four floors to this hotel), near the end of a hallway, so our room was mostly quiet. The table with two chairs was a nice touch, so we didn't have just a bed to sit on. We did not visit the pool or exercise room, but they looked nice. My son really enjoyed the "game room", which consisted of two video games and a pinball machine. Breakfast was more than adequate, but a bit repetitive with scrambled eggs every day. Plenty of TV channels, good size fridge, and a modern microwave (not like the ancient ones in many hotels). Directly across the street from Cracker Barrel, but you have to drive to it. Not on the main road with all the major businesses, but about a two minute drive to it. A very easy walk to Kmart, DQ, and Pirate's Cove (mini golf course). Check out was very easy.

Julie M, 29 Juin 2017

Staff and service were wonderful. Stayed here 5 days with an 11 year old grandson and explored Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens, the Historic Triangle. We felt we got value for our money and had a memorable time.

"Friendly Staff!"
407bryannag, 27 Juin 2017

The entire staff at this hotel are very friendly but I'd like to praise Alexis at the front desk for making my daughters bday extra special by leaving a cake and card in our room. The hotel was ok but the staff really make this place and we will be coming back!

"Good stay"
Shamika R, 26 Juin 2017

Good place to stay. Nice location to every thing. Staff was nice and very helpful with any question or assistance. Breakfast had a reasonable selection of food, could use a little more space during the busy times.

N2368EIjanicek, 22 Juin 2017

My family and I traveled from Pa to Virginia for our first vacation in over 8 years!! Super friendly staff.. great breakfast selection.. and everything was within a couple of miles of the hotel!! Thank you all again for the Anniversary gift that was so sweet!! Hope to come to Virginia again soon for another vacation and if we do we will definitely be staying with you!!

"Wonderful hotel and employees"
andreaaS1955VV, 22 Juin 2017

I enjoyed my stay at best western all the employees were awesome. The room was clean and breakfast was delicious. There was plenty of restaurants and things to do and the staff was very helpful. I will be stay at this Best Western again

"Welcoming atmosphere !"
37rosemarieg, 21 Juin 2017

Staff were extremely friendly, helpful and informative. Rooms were very clean, and very quiet even though the hotel was full. There were many restaurants nearby. We visited Colonial Williamsburg and hotel provides discount tickets at your request. Also received a magazine upon arrival with discount coupons for restaurants and attractions.

"Wonderful stay"
lesjo77, 17 Juin 2017

Great 6 night stay. Staff was very helpful. Breakfast was nice. Pool was clean and warm. Location to area attractions was perfect. I would stay here again. 5 minutes to busch gardens. Short drive to downtown.

"You saved our night."
kittycattoo, 17 Juin 2017

After we realized that our a/c unit was not working properly, we phoned the desk and the young lady on duty immediately changed our room. The beds are comfortable, the room was comfortable, the breakfast was very good. The folks who maintain the breakfast do a wonderful job, especially since it is so popular. Wonderful staff all around. We have stayed at this hotel before and will again!

"What a great stay!"
staceyh379, 15 Juin 2017

I did not know what to expect because hotel was so reasonably priced. I was pleasantly surprised upon walking into the lobby, which was very inviting and clean! Every single staff member I came in contact with at this hotel was so friendly and helpful. The breakfast area was very nice and the free breakfast, which was available from 7am-10am, included unlimited hot and cold items and a variety of juices and coffee. The pool/hot tub area was very nice and I was very happy it was open until 11pm!!! We often do not get to use the pool because of the hours. The room was a very nice size and very comfortable; not to mention the fridge and microwave which came in handy. I was even more happy about the location!!! 3 min drive to historic area and 10 mins to Busch Gardens, which was fabulous. There were several options for dining we could walk to (and did) and many more just a minute's drive down the road. I would definitely stay here again.

"Overall nice place"
angelajY8884FC, 14 Juin 2017

Breakfast was your run of the mill hotel breakfast. It was extremely busy causing quite a bit of congestion in the small breakfast area. Overall was a great value. It is also well located to Busch Gardens & Shopping!

"Needs Attention to Details"
Ed M, 13 Juin 2017

First impression with check in staff was unimpressive. A bit cold and no friendly welcome greeting. Facility was generally clean and maintained. Women's restroom near the check in had no TP, soap, or towels. Elevator call buttons on third floor didn't light up. Air conditioner unit in room 322 had an annoying vibration. Breakfast food items were very good, but the arrangement of the breakfast area was needlessly crowded--space poorly laid out. Lobby area was bright and clean, but the floor and wall designs were a bit gaudy--looked cheap. Housekeeping staff were quite friendly.

"Won't stay here again."
familytraveler1814, 12 Juin 2017

We stayed here for 2 nights. The AC didn't work and even after reported, it wasn't repaired. I also saw a large big our last night there. The rooms have very thin walls so you can hear EVERYTHING going on in the room next door. I would not stay here again with all the other options available.

"Nice hotel with a good breakfast buffet"
RoanokerFan, 12 Juin 2017

We were very happy with this hotel. Only drawbacks were that we accidentally booked a double room instead of king, so the beds were small. Also the breakfast was very crowded, though the lady working there did fairly well keeping everything stocked and was also cheerful.

"Stayed here 5 nights recently."
KepperGG, 07 Juin 2017

Our room was on the 4th floor, nice and quiet since no one overhead. Reception staff very friendly and accommodating. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was the typical fare that hotels seem to be serving up nowadays. Fresh fruit and yogurt were only put out on the wekend. Would have been nice to have these items available all days of week. It was a plus to have the onsite laundry room available. Good location for visiting the historical areas.

"Great Hotel and Location"
Elizabeth S, 07 Juin 2017

This is a great hotel with nice rooms, comfortable beds, and a great central location to everything. Beds are comfortable and the staff was courteous and helpful. I want to come back and bring my whole family. I will definitely come back to this hotel.

"Easy drive into the old centre of Colonial Williamsburg"
stationmastershouse, 06 Juin 2017

Reception was very good. Free car park. Good sized, clean room with free wifi. No room safe. Breakfast OK but with limited choices. Easy drive to the centre of old Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown settlement and the Colonial Parkway drive to Yorktown.

"Excellent Choice!"
reginaaf2017, 04 Juin 2017

Very clean, very comfortable reasonably priced easy access from the highway. We stopped over on our way to our vacation destination. Everything went very smoothly. We would recommend this to anyone for a short or longer stay.

"Home away from Home. "
Brittani M, 30 Mai 2017

I booked two rooms last minute for an impromptu extended trip to Busch gardens and water country. I was pleasantly surprised at how close to the parks this location was. The appearance in the lobby was great. Absolutely beautiful!! The beds, omg I could go on forever!! The definitely beat the hotel before as we actually slept through the night this night. The bathrooms were surprisingly large along with the rooms. From the inside out this place is great!! Of course I'm a little bias since I work at a Best Western, but this best Western had everything you could want and more. Check in went super smooth and quick. Jeff and Shawnese made sure we had everything we needed, which wasn't an easy task. We kept them running. They were so personable and really made us look forward to staying. Because we didn't plan on staying we didn't pack extra clothes so the laundry on site was a plus and the fact that one dry cycle was all that was needed made life so easy. The pool and Whirlpool were nice after a long rainy day and a late night play time to wear the kiddos out. I was also impressed with the patio area. Breakfast and checkout.. Alexis and Vanessa were also extremely helpful and knowledgeable with area things. We made them run a little too. I was glad to see them take pride in their facility and keep up with cleaning the breakfast areas when needed. I have nothing negative to say about this property or staff. I am truly looking forward to coming back lots over summer to spend our nights away from home. This is truly The Best stay I have had in a long time! Thanks so much for such a patient and pleasant staff. Keep up the great work!

"Great Customer service"
Jason V, 29 Mai 2017

Great customer service. Was immediately greeted when we checked in and was in our room within a few minutes. All the staff greeted us throughout the day and were always friendly. Hotel is a little outdated but meets the needs of a family when you are visiting Williamsburg. Close to many of the areas.

"Wonderful Indoor Pool, inviting and warm!"
108olivel, 29 Mai 2017

We enjoyed our stay with it's close location to food and historic sites. The room was decorated warmly, updated and had comfortable bedding. The hotel staff was friendly and the indoor pool was excellent. We swam for hours! Breakfast was included with comfortable seating.

"Big improvement in service"
travelgal6797, 28 Mai 2017

We stay at this hotel every time we visit Williamsburg and have always felt it was okay but not great. This time, we were greeted very warmly by a bright, cheery woman. First impressions are everything and this young lady got our trip off to a great start with her pleasant welcome. Fifteen or twenty minutes after we got to our room, she called to ask if everything was to our satisfaction. That's never been done before and was a nice surprise. While everything wasn't perfect (no bathroom vent was a bit of a problem), the way we were treated makes us look forward to our next stay.

"Met my expectations"
Denise B, 27 Mai 2017

I chose this hotel due to previous good experiences with Best Westerns around the country. I was not disappointed. The hotel was very clean and comfortable, the staff was friendly, and the location was very convenient to Colonial Williamsburg. A bonus was the large number of reasonably priced restaurants nearby.

"A place to stay but bring your pillow."
amberwF5444DT, 25 Mai 2017

Overall our room provided a cool, clean place to get out of the 90 degree weather in Williamsburg. It was close to all sights and many restaurants. While most of the rooms features were in working order (the blow drier died on the second day) the furniture showed heavy wear and tear. The mattresses were OK but the pillows were like small, hard, square rocks and we all had trouble sleeping on them. We saw lots of tour buses load and unload at the hotel during our stay. Our floor was pretty quiet but if your looking for a quiet place to stay you may want to stay off this main drag of hotels.

"Moms Birthday"
glenda h, 24 Mai 2017

Fantastic stay. Staff was the sweetest and most pleasent people.Took my mother for a get away on her 84th birthday. Requested room down stairs. Could not of asked for a better room. Directly pass front desk. Convenient to pool area lobby and breakfast .The breakfast was beyond great! What a variety.After going to pool late my mother wanted hot tea. The girl at front desk made a wonderful tray for us with a beautiful card for her. Comfy beds clean rooms and no complaints. Definetly will return

"Historic Williamsburg"
Kathy W, 19 Mai 2017

We were very pleasantly surprised with our accommodations! The location of the property is perfect, especially if you are going to tour historic Williamsburg Plenty of restaurants, stores etc in the area, and only a 10 minute drive to our destination The rooms were well appointed, and surprisingly quiet I say surprisingly because during the time of our stay there were bus loads of children and I have zero complaints of excessive noise The staff was friendly There is plenty of parking as well. The only complaint I had was associated with the breakfast, the eggs tasted horribly sour! Other than that, our stay was perfect and I would definitely stay there again Oh, we went to historic Williamsburg, but it was too hot for us, so we cut that tour short and popped down to Virginia Beach, just a straight shot to the ocean, took us about an hour, so there is lots to do from this location

"Good accommodations for the money."
markhP3749RE, 18 Mai 2017

We stayed 2 nights on a recent trip to Busch Gardens. The hotel is located within a reasonable distance to the park and has many dining options nearby. The room it self could use a little attention. It definitely shows wear and tear but was clean. The breakfast served was more than expected and a nice bonus. We greatly appreciated the front desk attendant letting us know about a large group staying at the hotel and what would be the best times to have breakfast. Overall, we would recommend to other families and stay there again in the future.

"Didn't find this to be a well run property"
Rudolph2, 14 Mai 2017

Stayed here three days. Condition of the property is good, maids did a great job. The front staff not good. On arrival the check in person was in the breakfast area watching TV and answering the phone on her cell. One day, bus load of students indicated the night before that they would want breakfast at 7:00am, when it opened. None of the hot foods were out at 7, didn't have many cups out or utensils. The staff didn't seem to be concerned. Bathrooms in the rooms were on the small side, other than that they were OK. I question the BW Plus rating. Have been in many BW's , didn't think this was a Plus.

"Good place to stay"
Brad M, 12 Mai 2017

The location was good. Room was fine. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was ok. Only complaint is the eggs that most of hotels serve. Everyone was nice. Would recommend. Close to Jamestown Settlement and Historic Jamestown.

"Great place to stay with one exception"
joelhJ8313WQ, 11 Mai 2017

Staff was great, but the breakfast stunk. Room and bed was very comfortable. Would stay here again, but would not look to have breakfast at the hotel. Water was off from the city one day 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM, but staff gave advance notice and made provisions

"Great Hotel, good value"
Lester A, 09 Mai 2017

Only a five minute drive to the visitor center or to most of the popular restaurants on Richmond Road. Clean hotel, modern, great staff. Security is very good -- Very safe feeling. Lots of parking. Good breakfast.

"Front desk staff was attentive and accommodating"
C372GWheidic, 01 Mai 2017

Tye was wonderful and was kind enough to open breakfast for a group of athletes an hour earlier than the posted time. She asked for the girls' favorite breakfast food and made sure it was all out in time for them to be fed before their matches. She went above and beyond and we really appreciate it.,

"great experience"
Momof4blessings, 28 Avril 2017

We recently visited Williamsburg with a large group of jr high students and stayed at this Best Western. It was perfect! First, the location is excellent; convenient to all of the sites (we toured Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, & Yorktown) and within walking distance to restaurants (we enjoyed dinners at Cracker Barrel & Golden Corral), entertainment (mini golf, ice cream), and shopping (Kmart for anything you forgot to bring). The rooms were comfortable, clean, and quiet. Some of our group enjoyed using the indoor pool and exercise room. The breakfast area was much bigger than typical so it could handle seating for our group (we ate in 2 shifts) and any other guests that were there at the time. The breakfast selection was fine and kept pretty well-stocked. Customer service of the employees was excellent...everyone was very friendly. They were gracious to allow us to use the breakfast area in the evening for devotional time, meetings, or playing board games. There were also computers that the kids enjoyed using. The wifi worked pretty well (my son did have some trouble using it on his tablet but it was fine on my phone/laptop). Overall, we had 40+ rooms for 3 nights and I didn't hear any complaints. I'll look forward to staying here again when I go with my daughter's class in a few years!!

"Colonial Spring Break"
O3112YIjamesj, 26 Avril 2017

Convenient location, clean modern rooms and friendly staff. The free breakfast and all day free coffe and juices were nice. The price was reasonable at $79/ night. I didn't list this in the Best Western Plus review, but having designated adult only hours at the pool would be a nice amenity. We enjoyed our stay there and have plans on returning to that facility.

"Great place"
CallieIC, 25 Avril 2017

This hotel was a great place to stay. Very quiet. Friendly service. Great breakfast. Close to many attractions such as Colonial Williamsburg, Bush Gardens, outlet mall and many restaurants. Williamsburg is beautiful.

"Perfect location for Busch Gardens and Williamsburg Sightseeing!"
Donna B, 24 Avril 2017

Just came back last night. Couldn't wait to share how perfect this location was for our Busch Gardens vacation. Indoor heated pool, walking distance to Golden Corral, Cracker Barrel, Kmart and several other cool restaurants. Adjoining rooms made this a nice option for a family with kids and gradparents!!! Would definitely book again.

"An average hotel, not up to BW standards"
Charlie S, 23 Avril 2017

In a hotel rich area I think you can do better. While clean and spacey room, that was the highlight of our stay. We came down to breakfast about 8am to find that much of the food was pretty much gone. The only pastries were mini poppy seed muffins. The waffles were the the toaster variety. We returned mid afternoon to find the maid in the room and telling us she was waiting for linens. We went to the pool for a while. The fitness center had yellow tape over the door.The next morning was worse. There was a group there with little food available for us coming to eat around 815. Cereal was empty, no pastries and no room to sit. We left for a six hour trip home unable to eat at the hotel. I think if you are in the area check out another hotel. We are BW rewards people and compared to our stay in VA Beach we were disappointed.

"Good Value and Location "
soccerdad495, 22 Avril 2017

I have never stayed at a Best Western before, so I had no idea what to expect. My family and I were very happy with our stay and would definitely chose a BW property again. The hotel is located very close to Colonial Williamsburg and not far from Busch Gardens. The front desk staff was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We had trouble with our room key, a problem that was very quickly rectified and apologized for. My kids loved the indoor pool and we appreciated the breakfast, which had a wide variety of food available. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel.

"Good hotel for price"
jennam169, 20 Avril 2017

Kids loved the indoor pool.breakfast was adequate. Great location.many places to eat. We enjoyed our stay. Would stay again. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Computers in the lobby if needed. Laundry on site.

"Disappointed in property."
Lee S, 18 Avril 2017

This property has been given a BW PLUS status, yet there is no way this is a PLUS for BW. It is old and dirty with no way of updating it by renovation to make it a modern PLUS property. Please be aware that this is a review of the property, not of the personnel. The personnel were diligent, very helpful, responsive and professional. The property itself is the issue. First the whole hotel looks like an old, made over Holiday Inn type facility. The rooms are old style with a narrow window, large AC/Heater, bathroom small, entry lighting is so dim you can't see much, and the furniture scuffed and worn. The housekeeping needs a good working over. The large mirror in our room had hand prints of children all over it, very gross; the carpeted floor needed a better vacuuming, and a little thing like the note pad on the night stand had 2 pieces of paper attached. I wouldn't have noticed this normally, but I needed paper for some phone use so I noticed it when I ran out). Who would not change out a 2 paper pad when detailing a room? The carpets in the general areas need cleaning badly. The large rug in the registration area is dirty and should just be removed so it doesn't get the traffic spotting from guests. BW should strongly consider reviewing this property as a PLUS, as it is no where near the high quality standards other BW PLUS properties work hard to uphold. We have stayed all over the U.S. In BW PLUS's by preference, so we see the high standards set by BW for PLUS's. The location is prime. There is a very good Mexican restuarant, Jose Tequilas adjacent to the property for convenience. The property should be cleaned, housekeeping standards raised and the PLUS status removed. It is a safe, fine property otherwise.

"dirty and horrible breakfast"
jaimel610, 13 Avril 2017

This hotel was horribly dirty. The breakfast was chaotic, dirty, and they continually ran out of food. We cancelled a night and I still have not been refunded my money. The pool was closed much of the time as well.

"Great Place to stay"
K G, 13 Avril 2017

Wonderful place, great amenities and best of all awesome/caring staff. The indoor pool and spa was a perfect way to unwind after a long day at Busch Garden. The staff went the extra mile and recommended a fantastic Thai restaurant (Emerald Thai) for dinner.

"Good value for the price."
119swatid, 13 Avril 2017

its an older hotel but well kept and clean. Indoor pool is nice. Breakfast was hassle free and staff was pleasant. Very conveniently located to Busch Gardens and Williamsburg. would highly recommend this hotel.

"Best Value"
A6047RW, 11 Avril 2017

For the price (base rate at/under $100/night), you really won't find a better option in Williamsburg. Hotel is older, but when BW acquired it, they did some heavy remodeling and updating. The staff was super friendly, beds were very comfy, and the breakfast was more than adequate. It's in a great, centralized location--maybe 15 minutes from Busch Gardens, 10 minutes from Historic Williamsburg, 20 minutes from Jamestown, and 10 minutes from the outlets. There are tons of restaurants nearby. The pools looked nice, but we forgot our suits, so we didn't actually try the indoor pool. This will definitely be our top choice for lodging when visit the area again!

First, the staff at this hotel was great....harried and stressed (it was crowded!), but they worked as quickly as possible to get you what you needed. Second, the rooms were comfortable, clean, and we slept well. For breakfast, the selection was ok, and the workers fought a futile battle (again-HUGE crowd) to keep the food replenished and the area clean. The people who designed the breakfast area did not have large crowds in mind. There were not enough tables, and the layout of what was there severely impeded the flow of traffic trying to get back to their seats at the end of the food line. I wasn't impressed. Finally, the pool is big and stretching a 3-5 foot pool to that size is amazing. However, the lip of the pool had water all around it (on the pool deck) which had nasty bits floating in it and was slippery. The pool deck itself was tile-not a good choice for a wet environment. Not only did my kids slip (while walking!), I watched an adult slip and fall as she was slowly stepping down into the pool via the steps in the 3 ft. It's amazing she wasn't hurt worse. A warning about the hot tub: when the jets are on, the fumes will burn your eyes. Do not let kids sit in it and don't sit in it yourself for more than a few minutes. All in all, not the best choice.

"Very dirty"
Ben A, 08 Avril 2017

Rooms were very dated. Not clean at all. Where ever I touched I felt it was sticky. One day our beds were not made! Another day water outage between 10am and 4pm. I never felt comfortable due to dirtiness of the rooms. I was on the 4th floor and there was a terrible smell in the hallway one day! Had no idea where that came from. Beds were surprisingly comfortable. Overall not a clean place and I will not repeat!

"It was Just OK for me"
Kevin P, 08 Avril 2017

I stayed at the Best Western for a couple of days while visiting Wiiliamsburg. The hotel is very nice in appearance inside and out. The check-in was nice and the desk clerks were wonderful. The lobby area was clean and had probably the nicest breakfast area I have seen in quite a while. I had constant problems with the wii fii and after several calls to tech support it was finally revealed that it probably was just the room I was in and if I could sit closer to the door it would help. My TV also decided not to change channels suddenly on my last night there. The doors to the rooms are metal with metal frames, when they close it is more like a vault than a door. Throughout the night I was repeatedly disturbed by the constant crash of doors. Like most hotels, the walls are paper thin and conversations in other rooms and especially in the hallway could be easily heard inside your room. The hotel is no closer to attractions than any of the others in the area. There is a Cracker Barrel and a Golden Corral within walking distance of this hotel and many others. The fitness center was extremely disappointing. 2 treadmills and an eliptical that did not work was about it. I dont know why they even bother to have one. This hotel is a bit more expensive than others in the area, and under the circumstances, I would probably stay at one of the others next time. There was not enough here for me to pay the extra.

"Nice Hotel in Williamsburg, VA"
Joshua S, 07 Avril 2017

This hotel was in a great location. It was near all the sites..Colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown. There are also a lot of places to eat and cool places like the General Store. The rooms were comfortable, and the staff was professional.

"Great Hotel"
lareejones, 28 Novembre 2016

We decided to stop over in Williamsburg to sightsee while traveling home. This hotel is clean and the staff are very friendly. The beds were so comfortable and had plenty of nice pillows. The breakfast bar was hot and fresh. Location is excellent. Close to all attractions.

"Very good value"
josephhd2016, 19 Novembre 2016

I found the hotel to be very clean the staff were always courteous and responded in a polite professional manner at all times. It's a huge plus with a family to not have to worry about one meal each day. The breakfast was fresh each day. The proximity to Williamsburg, Yorktown and Jamestown is huge. I wish I had the time to take advantage of the indoor pool, maybe next time. I highly recommend this hotel.

"Fall surprise"
edwine377, 18 Novembre 2016

Good time had by all. Went to movies...shopped...ate well enjoyed last of the warm fall days...while enjoying the best of best western...pleasant staff...clean rooms...and no work for me...thank you best western

"Shop till you drop!"
Kathy A F, 18 Novembre 2016

I came to shop and spend the night. The hotel was very clean and friendly. It was easy to get to from the outlet mall and it was also close to Merchant Square...but not walking distance. I would like to come again! I bet it is beautiful in the winter too.

"Will Stay Again"
lesleymn, 12 Novembre 2016

We enjoy this hotel. It's nicely furnished and good staff. It's convenient to many places to eat and tourist attractions. The eggs on our last visit in the spring were awful and we went elsewhere for breakfast this time.

"Close to Historic Williamsburg"
136helenel, 09 Novembre 2016

The hotel front desk staff was very pleasant. Discount tickets for Williamsburg are available at the front desk. The room was clean. Close to the areas of interest. Had to check out one day early and the front desk person inquired if it was due to anything wrong with the hotel or hotel service. I assured her it was not.

"Overall, a good experience and wonderful staff!"
U330EKkathyd, 07 Novembre 2016

Overall, a very postive experience. The problem was the inability to run the a fan on the a/c and heating unit in the room. It was annoying to have the fan cycle on and off all night. Would of liked to run the fan all night to help with the outside noise. Also, no fan in the bathroom.

"Williamsburg Getaway"
James G, 03 Novembre 2016

We have stayed at this Best Western several times over the years and really enjoy our visits here. The rooms are always clean, comfortable and quiet. The breakfast is varied, plentiful and tasty. We already have reservations for a stay in December and look forward to this next visit.

"Highly recommended"
Ron R, 01 Novembre 2016

A highly recommended hotel which provides at a decent price big and updated rooms, comfortable beds and a good breakfast. This was the only best western hotel that we enjoyed our stay in it during this trip and can be considered equivalent to other brands.

"Fine weekend "
william o, 01 Novembre 2016

Please stay here close to any thing good beds good pool the staff is very helpful you can have breakfast their but get out to old mill restaurant use pool it is very nice so is whirlpool good place to call hom.

"Pros and Cons"
Cathy R, 31 Octobre 2016

We stayed in room 312. See pros and cons below as well as a summary of my opinion. Pros: The free breakfast is definitely good. Fruit, sausage, french toast sticks, eggs, breads, etc. If you are looking to save money on breakfast this is a great spread. The lobby area is really pretty and modern looking. Quick responds from front desk. Microwave and refrigerator in rooms. Cons: The rooms feel cheap/outdated. Some of the furniture in the room is very worn - especially the cabinet that holds the refrigerator and microwave. Beds are hard. There was holes in the bathroom walls that looked like they had tried to fix the plumbing at one point, but never sealed up the hole. Bathroom space is tight Shower curtain isn't long enough to keep inside the tub The doors that are located towards the back of the hotel need your room key to get inside - and this never worked for us. We even got new room keys thinking this would fix the issue, but it never did. This might have been the most annoying part of the stay considering there was no parking out front, so we always parked in the rear of the building. Summary is this: Its a fine budget type hotel. No frills and a little worn inside the rooms. The rest of the hotel seems up to date. I would stay again if the price was right just for the nice free breakfast.

"Clean room, good rate~"
Cathy M, 27 Octobre 2016

Very clean room, bed was comfortable and plenty of hot water. Great location for visiting Colonial Williamsburg as it is only a mile away. Many restaurants and stores within a mile, and a Cracker Barrel and Golden Corral across the street. Breakfast was good with the usual hotel fare: eggs, meat, waffles, cereal, breads, yogurt, coffee, juice. All was fresh and kept well stocked. On-site pool and fitness center was clean and modern. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely go back.

"Recent stay in Williamsburg"
Eileen F, 24 Octobre 2016

Hotel located close to tourist areas and very reasonably priced during the weekday nights but prices doubled on weekend nights. Hotel was clean, staff were helpful, room was comfortable. Breakfast could have been better stocked.

"Okay...."
KJacobs336, 22 Octobre 2016

Unable to get into room because battery dead on door. Had to switch rooms. Picked this hotel for free breakfast. Errr. Coffee bad and eggs bad. If you just want toast and cereal....woo whoo. Key card still temperamental. Bed hard. Pool and jacuzzi not crowded. Room clean.

"history getaway"
251clintonh, 20 Octobre 2016

This hotel need serious updates. Every piece of furniture was scarred, beat up and uncomfortable. The beds were too small and mattresses so uncomfortable we had to split up and use both beds just to get some sleep after four hours of tossing and turning trying to get comfortable. Most everything did appear to be clean although stained and discolored. Heat/AC unit was too noisy but typical for that type. We were stuck in this hotel by a marketing company giving us discounted housing so we would go to a sales presentation so I didn't feel I could complain but I surely wouldn't stay there again under most any circumstance.

"Good value"
lawrean8, 17 Octobre 2016

This was a GOOD value for the money. If you are looking for a clean place to stay this is it, for what my husband and I were looking for. Now, it is not a place with a lot of frills but we were not looking for elegance. We were just wanting a clean place with daily housekeeping. You can smoke outside. Breakfast is included with the room. The staff is great, as is housekeeping. The motel is VERY centrally located for shopping, sightseeing and restaurants. Will definitely stay here again if back in the area.

"Hidden Gem"
willie1942, 16 Octobre 2016

We have stayed at this hotel (Best Western Historic) the last few times we have visited Williamsburg and recommend it highly....it is clean, very guest friendly and in a good location....it is a hidden gem.

"Great location"
joannaz758, 15 Octobre 2016

This hotel is only minutes from the village of Williamsburg. So many restaurants on the 'strip', too, ranging from fast food, to family style, to steak houses. Fresh made cookies available at the front desk in the evenings. Only wish the coffee machines in the breakfast lounge were on during the day and evening. It was much better coffee than what was available in our room.

"williamsburg visit"
Sharon G, 09 Octobre 2016

had a great stay booked a package deal with busch gardens and williamsburg. no problems anywhere. the staff were all pleasant and very helpful. our room was clean and comfortable. all in all a very nice stay

"Wonderful Staff"
silvercometgirl, 05 Octobre 2016

This was one of those vacations where some things went wrong. We arrived later at the hotel than planned due to heavy rain and several highway incidents on our journey down to Williamsburg. We called the hotel ahead and were assured our room would be held until 6:30am the following day. We checked in and went to our room, leaving our things with the intent of getting something to eat. But, we couldn't get out of the room! The door was locked from the inside and the handle wouldn't move. Laughing, (was this an escape room?) we called the front desk and were liberated from the room in less than five minutes. Even the night clerk, I can't recall his name, found it odd and funny. He immediately put us into another room. Since the room was the same number as our house, we took it as an omen and moved to the new room. The room felt warm, but we assumed the ac wasn't on. My husband checked. It was on, but it was on low, so he turned it on high and we went to get food. We got back and the room was still warm, in fact it was stifling. We turned down the temperature as low as it would go and ate our food. The room was not cooling down. We were so tired after our long trip, we just didn't have the energy to ask to be moved to a new room. I never sleep without a blanket, especially not with ac on, but I did that night. In the morning, after finding out that the hair dryer didn't work, we asked to be moved again. We were spending a total of three nights at this hotel as we were going to Busch Gardens Hallowscream, and we couldn't tolerate another night in a hot room. The desk clerk gave us a new room with time to gather our things in the current room which was very hot by then. Just as we were about to move out, the manager called and told us she was moving us across the hall. She checked the ac and hair dryer herself. The moment I entered the room, it felt so much cooler. Third time is the charm. Yet, it wasn't. We returned from Hallowscream and couldn't get into our room. The key card wasn't working. So, we trucked down to the front desk and the clerk activated new key cards for us. Overall, each of the rooms was very clean and the staff was wonderful during all of our problems. The beds were comfortable and the pillows were fluffy, yet didn't flatten out when we laid on them. Breakfast was good. They actually had cheese on the side for the scrambled eggs. The attendant kept replenishing everything and cleaning the tables. Even with all the weird things that happened to us, we blame it on the spooky season, we would stay here again.

"Anniversary Surprise"
susanlP104TW, 01 Octobre 2016

Stayed at the hotel for our anniversary weekend. Husband had arranged to have flowers delivered. The hotel staff went above and beyond to decorate our room and added extras to help us celebrate our anniversary. It was a wonderful surprise!

"Guy at desk!"
Sara S, 01 Octobre 2016

The gentleman who greeted us on our arrival made this an average stay to a good stay, I think his name was Derek but maybe not.....we arrived 14th September if that helps! Worth his weight in gold to this hotel! He was so helpful and polite (far nicer than anyone else we spoke to from the hotel). So welcoming and could advise us on our needs. Room was clean and tidy and beds were quite comfy. Location wasn't too far from centre and only $10 taxi ride if you needed it. Well worth checking out!

"Wonderful Base for Touring"
Harvey E, 28 Septembre 2016

A great place to stay for visiting the colonial triangle (Jamestown, Williamsburg, Yorktown) and not overly expensive. Their breakfasts are very good and the staff is friendly. Getting to and from the motel is a bit of a challenge without using GPS, but GPS makes it relatively easy. A lot of amazing restaurants nearby that aren't overly expensive either.

"Week at Williamsburg"
Andrew C, 27 Septembre 2016

Hotel was a good value and included and indoor pool and hot continental breakfast in the morning. Best feature was location, which was less than a five-minute drive from Colonial Williamsburg and about a fifteen-minute drive to Busch Gardens. There were many restaurants within a short drive, as well. The hotel itself had good staff and was kept clean. The pool could have been nice, and temperature was always too warm or too cold. Breakfast, though cooked in the morning, was lacking in quality and dining area was always very crowded. Not an automatic return for me, but I would go back if I could not find a better value.

"Convenient to Colonial Williamsburg"
Marilyn H, 26 Septembre 2016

Check-in was smooth, staff was helpful, room was clean and quiet. The hotel was close to Colonial Williamsburg allowing for easy access over two-day visit. Also location allowed for easy access to area restaurants, James River Plantations and James River Ferry.

"Decent Hotel - Horrible Staff"
Brad D, 19 Septembre 2016

The hotel itself is nice for the price but the staff was so rude that I felt like I was an inconvenience to them whenever I needed something. Otherwise, the hotel is just minutes from Colonial Williamsburg and many shops. I loved the location.

"Housekeeper Asked if we wanted our Room Cleaned"
Edward L, 19 Septembre 2016

first we had to change from our original room since the AC unit made a terrible noise then the second morning there my wife and I see the housekeeper in the hallway she has the nerve to ask if we wanted the room cleaned we didnt know what to say it was just not professional at all we came back after a whole day out the bed was not made and the garbage was overflowing from the cans management did take a very small ammount off the nightly stay b ut still this was just unacceptable we wont stay at Best Western again

"Best receptionists ever!"
foodrover, 16 Septembre 2016

This was a positive experience from the moment we arrived. They had our room ready early. The daytime receptionist had already actioned our room requests and noted our BW membership. She answered all our questions and had answers to questions we were about to ask. Maps, directions and leaflets to everywhere we needed. The room was well furnished including unusually two chairs at the table. WiFi was good but my wife had a problem connecting her tablet. The evening receptionist did everything she could, eventually ringing a helpdesk, before finally sorting the problem. The breakfast area was smart and recently refurbished. Breakfast itself was typical American fare. We had a problem with our fridge and our phone (partly our fault), but this was promptly fixed by a very pleasant maintenance man. We are very experienced travellers who have stayed in dozens of hotels in various price ranges in many countries. We can honestly say that we have never had better service than we got from Alexis and Tye. If only everyone had their "can do" attitude.

"A little dated but wonderful welcome"
stokerej, 13 Septembre 2016

We have just spent 2 nights here in order to see Historic Williamsburg. The lobby and breakfast area have clearly just been refurbished and are lovely but whilst the rest of the hotel is very clean, it tends to be dark and quite dated. The receptionists are wonderful and so are the waiters who keep the breakfast area spotless and filled up. What a team. It was lovely to have a coffee maker and a fridge in our room. I don't know if taxis are available but be warned it is quite a long, but extremely pleasant walk to Colonial Williamsburg but so worth it. Tickets are $40 dollars which gets you into certain venues, but we chose to just walk round. Certainly worth seeing.

"very nice place to stay"
Larry M, 13 Septembre 2016

this hotel is a very nice place to stay,rooms nice and clean,beds and pillows comfortable.excellent breakfast,helpful staff,hotel centrally located.stayed here many times and never was disappointed.would recommend this hotel to anybody visiting the area.

"Power Went Out & No Emergency Backup..."
bluejay377, 06 Septembre 2016

I previously rated this hotel. My daughter goes to school in Williamsburg, and we are BW rewards members. This is the closest BW to school. The power went out during the pass through of Hermine this past Saturday. Wife was in the tub when the power went out. Total blackout, and no emergency power whatsoever. Not sure how this is possible or legal for a hotel. About 20 minutes into the ordeal, the desk called to inform us that flashlights were available at the front desk. Power was out for at least 2 hrs. forcing us to go to my daughter's apartment to work on the computer. At check out, I asked about compensation for what went on. I understand that they cannot be responsible for acts of God, but not having backup power, in my opinion, is inexcusable. We were informed that there would be no compensation. Had we been stuck on the elevator, they have the ability to manually open the doors. Absolutely no customer service, AGAIN. Last time down we stayed at the BW in Newport News, a much nicer and cleaner outfit. You should weigh the drive time if you are a BW rewards member. In my opinion, the drive is not bad back to Williamsburg, and the operation there is light years ahead of what you will get at the BW in Williamsburg.

"Not a Best Western PLUs"
Ellen S, 05 Septembre 2016

Dirty room, stain in carpet, finger nails on floor , leaking sink faucet, broken dining chairs, rug ripping up near window in dining area..... Must say indoor pool was great except for leaking ceiling.

"Not the greatest"
ThemeParkGal, 02 Septembre 2016

We arrived here after a long drive of about twelve hours and were extremely tired. Thankfully, when we walked in, we were greeted by various extremely friendly staff, who got us our room immediately. The room was not the cleanest. There were spots on the mirror, and even a pin in the middle of the room that luckily no one stepped on. The pillows we also found to be not very comfortable. If you decide to take advantage of their free breakfast, get there early. There were no seats left when we first came down, but luckily some opened. The food served was just meh. Also, we decided to head down to the vending machine one day to get drinks. We got the drinks, and they were warm. When we asked a worker, he said all the vending machines were like that, and we were confused. However, when we went down to the pool vending machine to be sure we had drinks for the road, the drinks were ice cold, so that was odd what was said. The other thing that earned this hotel its second star is its location. We never had to drive more than 15 minutes to get to any major attraction which was nice. Overall, despite the nice staff and great location, I am not sure we would stay here again unfortunately, due to the issues with our room and the breakfast.

"Great value"
Louis B, 01 Septembre 2016

Our overall experience was very pleasant. After checking in we received a call to make sure everything was ok with the room. My only 2 minor issues were that when we got to the room after a long day out the AC was off. We called the front desk and no one ever answered. My husband eventually figured out what was wrong with it. My 2nd complaint would be the breakfast, although very nicely set with tables it was overcrowded. They did try to accommodate by setting additional table up outside. And the coffee was TERRIBLE!

"Filthy Dirty Everywhere"
James M, 31 Août 2016

Everything about this hotel was dirty and disgusting. Check the photos and judge for yourself. The chair in room had so many visible stains, we didn't even want to put a bag on it. The staff offered to replace it with one that was no better. The gym equipment looks like it has never been cleaned with drink stains everywhere and dust bunnies clogging the air vents. The refrigerator stand was disgusting. The bathroom vents were clogged with dust and the mirror revealed "graffiti" scribbled on it by previous guests when it fogged up. Rusted bathroom fixtures that looked like they were about to fall off the walls. Dust on top of the door handles. Was so happy to check out the very next day.

"Great hotel at a fair price."
Trevor H, 30 Août 2016

Rooms are nicely decorated and very clean. Property seems well maintained and safe. Room had a king size bed and a sofa, fridge, microwave, iron and board etc. Breakfast had a great selection with all the things you would expect plus eggs, sausage and tater tots. Hall carpets worn and dirty but that was the only thing that wasnt perfect. There is an indoor pool.

"Nice stay for the right price"
Aida R, 29 Août 2016

Had a very nice stay for the price we paid./ Enjoyed the indoor swimming pool and the breakfast and the staff was very nice. The location was convenient to Busch Gardens and Water Country. Convenient location to the shoppes and restaurants.

"Very Nice Stay"
211pennyp, 29 Août 2016

The staff at this hotel are wonderful and helpful. The stay was very nice with no problems with the hotel at all. The room was clean and the bed pretty comfortable. (Pillow top mattress but is a firm mattress). The breakfast was good overall and we did not have any problems finding a place to sit. This was a nice bonus and money saving service. They also have tickets to local attractions as a little bit of a reduced price which was great. This hotel is very close to Colonial Williamsburg so no long drives which was a real plus. The only thing I found not totally up to par was the carpet in hall/walkway area was not clean looking and a bit dated. The carpet in my room was clean. The room overall was very clean. I would return to this hotel in the future it was a great stay for the price.

"Well-priced with ample amenities "
mystic69, 26 Août 2016

This hotel looks to be going through a remodel. The entry and breakfast space was very modern and the staff was both friendly and helpful. The pool and jacuzzi were much needed after a long drive and although you could tell they were well maintained. The entire hotel was immaculate and the rooms were no exception. The rooms could still do with a bit of work, starting with mattresses. My kids shared a bed and they were quite comfortable, but my husband and I both felt the bed was hard. We both had a hard time sleeping and I also felt the A/C unit wasn't consistent. On the other hand, there was a flatscreen tv, microwave ,fridge, and decent shower pressure, which I believe all hotels should have.

"Busch Gardens"
Timothy M, 26 Août 2016

very close to parks, clean and modern, good breakfast and indoor pool, comfortable bed and spacious room good restaurants nearby. this wants two hundred characters and I do not know what else to say bye

"Family trip"
juan1031, 25 Août 2016

Excellent customer service, staff very helpful and friendly all around. A special thanks to Asheika for her great customer service and her friendly service. Will recommend to all my friends about this place.

"Just okay "
Hutch65, 25 Août 2016

There are a lot of choices in Williamsburg and this one is close to the entrance to Colonial Williamsburg. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful. We arrived around 4pm. We were given a room on the 4th floor. The elevator was a little slow but when we arrived at our room it had not been cleaned. I went back to the desk and one employee grabbed sheets and went to clean to room. They gave us another room so we did not have to wait. The room was reasonably clean, however it appeared that the maintenance was not of the highest quality. The paint, the caulking round the sink/tub looked like an amateur did the work. There were water leak stains on the ceiling. The towels were old with any softness washed out long ago. There are lots of choices and I would not pick this one again.

"Family Trip"
hn1972, 23 Août 2016

Location was great as it was close to all area attractions. Room however, specifically the bathroom, definitely needs some updating. Free breakfast but if you want a table make sure you go down early because you will have a long wait for a table. The breakfast area needs to be better organized, especially the toaster section. The wait on the line took way too long. Maybe have that at the beginning of the line or move it altogether to it's own separate section. All in all the selection wasn't bad and best of all it's free.

"Girls Trip"
Tammy E, 20 Août 2016

Came with my best friend and her daughter for college shopping. Excellent and friendly service. Great clean rooms and beds were super comfy. Very very satisfied with our stay, and would definitely return again in the future. Thanks for a comfortable stay!

"Best Hotel That I've stayed In"
Bob C, 15 Août 2016

This hotel is close to Williamsburg and the Water Park and Buch Gardens. The rooms are very clean and the house keeping staff does an excellent job of maintaining that level. Very friendly staff and they all have a smile on their faces. used the breakfast and it was a great bargain. Used the pool and it was very clean. My experience was great and this the third time I've stayed at this hotel. Will go back again

"Felt Like Home"
Chanel F, 14 Août 2016

I want to say that my family and I truly enjoyed our stay at the Best Western Plus Historic area inn at Williamsburg, Virginia. The staff was so pleasant and kind. I felt like I was home. The Housekeeping crew are awesome. Very positive. Maris and Asheika at the front desk are so kind and professional. What a great way to come to a hotel and be greeted by these two wonderful ladies. The housekeeper Cookie is the sweetest, kindest, housekeeper. Even "P.C." who helps maintain the buffet bar was very entertaining and he maintained his areas to a Capitol T. I would come back again for my vacation next year. I truly appreciate the staff for taking care of my family. Well worth it and the AC in the rooms were great. Thanks to all the staff. Everyone is deserving here.

"Good, but not great"
mr2man, 10 Août 2016

This is actually the second time we stayed in this hotel, and we would come back. So that said, why not a raving review. I booked this place months in advance and got a really good price. Came with two grand kids, so the indoor pool and free full breakfast were both drawing cards. The down side; our room was a bit small, only standard size double beds, and was located right off the lobby. That made access to the pool and breakfast area great, but also added to the noise. TIP, do not accept room 107; ask for something else. Additionally, the hotel wifi did not work in the room, except right by the door into the hallway (I should say, it did not work on either of our iphones or my ipad, but it did on my windows laptop). I asked about it twice, but did not get any adequate response. We found a dirty pair of kid's underpants under the sink in the bathroom, and the coffee maker in the room was missing the basket so it could not be used. We told them about the underpants and the maid took care of it. Since I was right off the lobby and the coffee/breakfast area, I just left the coffee maker alone. It was a bit odd that the nearest ice maker was on the second floor. The pool was OK (it was better on our previous stay). The water seemed cloudy and it was closed one entire day (out of our four-day stay). That said, the price was very good, the breakfast decent, the location fine and the room clean. So, if the price was right I might stay here again, but not in room 107.

"Family Vacation"
Lori B, 10 Août 2016

Best Western is a good place to stay for the price. It has friendly staff members. The house keeping staff go out of their way to make your stay pleasant. It is very close to all the Williamsburg attractions. Has a very nice breakfast area but get there early because of seating.

"Enjoyed my visit"
Sunny C, 09 Août 2016

This was my first time visiting Williamsburg and I enjoyed my stay at the hotel very much. Maris who greeted us with a smile was a delight to talk to and very helpful to all of our needs and questions.

"An awesome hotel in Williamsburg, VA"
677many, 04 Août 2016

It was my 2nd time to stay in Best Western Plus Historic Area Inn hotel because it satisfied all my needs. The hallway and breakfast display were modern and lovely. The bedding and the room are comfortable and clean. The internet connection is fast and I like their new computers around hallway.My family also liked the hot breakfast with a variety of choices, even including French toast. The hotel staff was very helpful and considerate to give me a late check-out as well as the outlet direction. Overall, I strongly recommend this hotel and will stay again when I visit Willamsburg.

"Really enjoyed our week-long stay."
Kareen M, 01 Août 2016

Booked through priceline.com as part of a package and was very pleasantly surprised. The staff was welcoming, helpful and attentive. They were VERY busy the week we stayed (7-20 to 7-27-16) but the staff made excellent suggestions regarding the best times to take breakfast, the best places to visit, and offered several discounts on local restaurants and attractions. Very well situated near Colonial Williamsburg and the shopping outlets as well. Although busy the breakfast staff kept up with demand and the breakfast offering included eggs, meat and a carb daily (either bacon or sausage; either french toast sticks or tater tots), as well as a good selection of cereals (both hot and cold), breads, apples, oranges, yogurt, both whole and low-fat milk, fruit juice and coffee. Our room was clean and well-appointed, and included a fridge and microwave. Would stay again!

"Satisfied visit"
Karena B, 30 Juillet 2016

First I had a difficult time finding a place to stay for a visit to go school shopping. The room rates were pricy for the weekend as I typically go with a Hilton property as my first choice or Marriott as my second choice. I went with Best Western after reading the reviews. After a two hour ride, my family and I arrived at the hotel greeted by a young lady named Asheika. I was advised that my reservation through a thrid party was for the next day. Totally my fault so, I could only be upset with myself. However, Asheika was able to place my family and I in a room at a discounted rate. I was so happy as the day was very long and I was tired. The next day my family enjoyed breakfast thanks to the hotel. We went to the local outlet for a day of shopping. Later, we needed to leave due to an illness. Because I made the reservation through a third party, there was a possibility that it would not be refunded. I contacted the third party customer service and spoke with a rep and was advised that he would ask the manager if I could cancel with a full refund. After less than a 5 minute hold, the rep advised me that the hotel manager Maris approved my cancellation with a full refund. Thank you Maris! So my stay at Best Western was well worth the visit and I would stay again in hopes of seeing both Asheika and Maris. They were really sweet and helpful, thank you!

"Great place to stay."
Jennifer E, 30 Juillet 2016

Nice clean hotel, good location, rooms were excellent, great pool, good breakfast and the staff were very friendly. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. My very fussy husband would definitely stay here again.

"Pleasantly Surprised "
Katrina F, 28 Juillet 2016

While the Best Western isn't the best hotel with everything in it, it was still an adequate Hotel. We booked this hotel as a last-minute getaway and we were pleasantly surprised. The room was very clean and spacious and while I saw several complaints about breakfast, we have none and there was even a big group here. We had no problems getting a seat. The breakfast choices were very nice with choices of hot and cold items. The rooms are older but then this is an older Hotel. The staff here was very friendly and helpful. While this isn't my first choice of hotels as I am used to different accommodations, if I had to I could definitely stay here again. The only thing is I would suggest that they update the hotel room so that it matches what you see in the lobby. And the carpets need to be cleaned or new carpet put in. I have been that if you are on a budget and want to be close to everything while hearing Williamsburg this is a good choice.

"Pleasant stay for long weekend"
Stacy P, 27 Juillet 2016

Upon arrival, my family and I were checked in promptly. The front desk staff was friendly enough. Many updates have been done to the lobby and breakfast room, but the rest of the hotel has not been updated for quite some time - there is a definite multiple personality thing going on with the decor being extreme modern in front and Colonial for the rest of the building. Our room was comfortable for a family of four. The bathroom and sleeping area were clean and the beds were comfortable enough. There is an indoor pool, but we did not use it since we were in tpwn to go to Busch Gardens, Water Country USA, and Colonial Williamsburg (all within reasonable driving distance). Breakfast in the morning were mixed hot and cold items. There was a good variety and the presentation was good; however the room was very crowded and lacked space for people to sit. One morning we ate on the patio. This Best Western is a good overall value for traveling families. If I went back with kids again, this would be a good choice.

"So Disappointed"
Natisha C, 27 Juillet 2016

The room was not what we expected. The staff was too relax and almost unprofessional. The room was not what we expected and looked as if it was rushed. The couch smelled horrible, the desk chair was stain and nasty, and there was a roach that crawled into the bathroom as we were heading down to breakfast. We were unable to book another hotel on such short notice at a decent price (refused to spend almost double). They switched our room which looked better and very clean but the damage was done. The breakfast was nothing to sneeze at; they kept running out of items by 8:30 and it wasn't over until 10am! WILL NOT BE BACK!

"Best bargain in Williamsburg Va"
willie1942, 27 Juillet 2016

We have stayed at this hotel at least 6 times over the past 2 years and find it very clean. The employees are very friendly. The breakfast is very good with a nice variety of food. We will continue to use this hotel.

"Smoking room for non-smoking guests"
Paul F, 26 Juillet 2016

My wife booked this room through Expedia. The hotel site did not designate smoking vs non-smoking. Upon check on the clerk at the front desk offered to check for another room but alas nothing non-smoking was available. This is a sneaky way for the hotel to sell its very stinky smoking rooms to unsuspecting tourists. The room was ok. It had the usual small wear and tear flaws but it reeked of smoke. Nothing had been done to even attempt to clear the smoke smell from the room. So here we were two people with smoke allergies stuck in this stinking room. We made the best of a bad situation but work up with full sinuses and soar throats for two days until we left. The bed was ok. The hot water was scalding hot and the cold water was lukewarm. The indoor pool was nice but a bit cloudy with chlorine and the outdoor pool was like bath water. Breakfast was average coffee and fruit were always available. Rating would be a 4 star if they had been clear about their listing of rooms available on Expedia

"For the price, could get better"
Peter G, 26 Juillet 2016

While we have stayed in far worse places, this BW was disappointing. I'll start by saying the staff was great and the location is spot on. The pool is large and warm, and the three video/pinball games were a nice touch. For the price ($109), however, I think you could get a much better experience from one of the many other hotels in the same area. Note the Internet was not working while we stayed, and I was asked to actually call the Internet company to work it out. After 30 minutes, I was told there was an equipment problem on my floor. Unfortunately, we could not connect from any floor, and ended up tapping the Econolodge wifi from next door (had an important task to complete). Was told by staff that the hotel has problems with Macs and iPhones, but this seems like a problem most hotels have figured out. Also, the floors/carpets in the hotels could use a good steaming, something that cosmetically would make a huge impact. And, our room had stains on the comforters and no desk or chair or other furniture to lie items on. It was inconvenient and in such a large room looked odd. It wasn't promised, but you should be aware of this. Overall, if everything else is booked, you will not hate this hotel. Given other options, we would stay someplace else next time.

"Good Value, Clean, Convenient"
Mike C, 25 Juillet 2016

This hotel has a lot going for it, from the free breakfast to the indoor pool (great when it's ridiculously hot outside like it was when we were there) and a small gym. The rooms and the hotel are clean, but for the most part, this could be any mid-range hotel. I think what sets this property apart is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, and the location. We had trouble with our bed linens... okay, we spilled a large cup of tea on one of the beds... and we had fresh and clean replacements within five minutes from a very helpful and courteous member of the front desk staff. The hotel is about fifteen minutes from Busch Gardens and Water Country, and Colonial Williamsburg, with wast access to the highway. There are several restaurants close by too, so that's great. I also had three great nights' sleep in our room. The mattress was firm, and the pillows were very close to "just right." The shades darkened the room nicely, and it was quiet. I do a lot of research on Trip Advisor before I book anywhere, and this place looked on par or slightly above most of the mid-range places in this resort town. Put that with Best Western's great reputation, and you have a great place to stay. I will say this, though... I've stayed in BW Premier and other BW Plus hotels. This one just makes it into the Plus category in my opinion. Needs a few tweaks here and there. But remember... Good Value, Clean, Convenient.

"One of the WORST hotel experiences ever"
DocGary2015, 24 Juillet 2016

We were here as a couple for five nights. Reservation requests were ignored even though we booked weeks in advance and had paper work to prove it. It took seeing three rooms before they gave us what we asked for. The breakfast layout and service was inadequate for the number of guests in the hotel. We are Best Western Gold Card members, and have never seen such a dirty, run down Best Western as this one. Other newer and less expensive hotels are in the area. The weekend rate here was $175. You would do do better in this particular location to shop around and avoid this hotel.

"Not bad for the price"
217marcellined, 23 Juillet 2016

My family and I planned a vacation to Williamsburg VA. We were on a budget and this hotel and the package for Busch Gardens and Water Country USA fit our pockets. It is not a bad hotel. I did not see bed bugs, however something in the room bit me ion several spots on my neck area. It may have been a mosquito. The hotel staff is very helpful. The fitness room needs some TLC. There was a broken stationary bike and missing weights. The indoor heated pool area was undesirable because it was so hot outside. There was a Jacuzzi directly behind the pool, however it was just too crowded and I never attempted to use. The lobby is very nice, however it is also where the food is served for the continental breakfast and it is just too small for the amount of people staying here. I literally felt like I was on line at a school cafeteria. Overall, if you are on a budget then this is a decent hotel.

"good choice"
Valer B, 23 Juillet 2016

book 2 rooms at Best Western for us and family friends from Florida and was really good choice , excellent location , clean ,very friendly and many amenities which make our stay very enjoyable .On negative side , breakfasts wasn't so good , place is crowded and hard to find a table .Not to mention that most of the very few good items are exhausted quick and not replaced .Also don't count much in internet quality .However non of the "negatives ' affect us much .

"Way too crowded!"
645kirsten, 22 Juillet 2016

When we checked in, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the lobby was very nice. Our room was well cleaned and perfect for somewhere just to sleep at night after being out during the days. The bathroom was a bit small, so just make sure no one walks in while you are on the toilet or you will get hit by the door. My family went to the indoor pool two nights and a group of unsupervised teenagers were splashing wildly so it was hard for my daughter and I to enjoy the pool, which was on the cold side. The jacuzzi was very nice! My biggest disappointment was the breakfast area! There was a line for breakfast and then we had to wait for a seat, so your food was cold by the time you were able to sit down. They said there was seating outside, but it was so hot out there that it would not have been enjoyable. The second morning, we went to breakfast earlier and it was even more crowded than the day before, so we went somewhere else. The next two days, we endured the line and got a seat before we ate. There were simply too many people for the size breakfast area they had and it was poorly set up! The breakfast was very good with hot and cold choices, but not a very relaxing atmosphere for vacation. I would stay there again in the off season, but definitely not peak season!

"Great Location and Staff"
V7266FJjeremyw, 21 Juillet 2016

This hotel is close to everything and the hotel staff were very friendly, professional, and helpful. Definitely would recommend this hotel if visiting Williamsburg. Breakfast items and choices were good and the rooms were clean and nice. Seems to be recently renovated with modern décor and the king size bed provided excellent sleep. The front desk was excellent and even greeted you on exit and entry each day of our stay. Very pleased with this hotel and close proximity to attractions, restaurants, and shopping.

"glad only stayed 1 night"
Paul D, 17 Juillet 2016

The reservation was under wrong address for 2 rooms and given 1 wrong room with someone else's welcome kit on the table, solicited at entrance for time share, no fan in bath which meant there was mold on ceiling, free breakfast was ok to poor with canned fruit, stale pastry, eggs, sausage toast etc. The check in personnel were on the verge of rude. Very short and curt while explaining their mistake and not apologetic at all.

"Awesome Experience!!"
konknee12, 13 Juillet 2016

My church youth group visited this particular hotel on June 30th -July 3rd 2016. From the time we arrived the staff was very professional & helpful. We were very impressed by the look of the hotel lobby. The dinning area was beautiful. Once our rooms were ready, we were very pleased with those also. We had trouble with the AC in one of our rooms but the staff quickly took care of us & got us setup in another room. I was very please at how quickly they handled the situation & how professional they were. I would recommend this hotel in the Williamsburg area to anyone. When in this area again BW Plus Historic Area inn is where I will be staying. Thanks Kandi Shaw, Vanessa, Asheika, Maris, Terry, Pri & Marletha for a great experience at BW Plus Historic Area inn!!

"Great Location!!"
travelsalot8A, 13 Juillet 2016

The proximity of this hotel to the colonial restoration, Jamestown, Yorktown and Busch Gardens is GREAT! The hotel itself was also excellent and we were very pleasantly surprised. We stayed for 3 nights and were very comfortable. The room was clean and the service was prompt. My only comment less than great is that the bathrooms are on the small side, but we did not find that a problem. On check-in, we were greeted by Maris, and then Kadian, who were both super pleasant, helpful, and very knowledgeable about the area and directed us to several restaurants with which we were also very pleased. Thank you to both of them. The breakfast area was very clean and more than adequate with both hot and cold foods available. Unlike other reviewers, we always were able to get a table without any waiting and found other guests very courteous. Also, there was coffee and tea available 24/7. We did not use the pool but it looked well maintained, although it was very hot in that room. All in all, I would not hesitate to highly recommend this hotel, and I would definitely stay here again.

"Very nice property"
PippaXYZ, 13 Juillet 2016

Stayed for one evening while in the area. Felt this was a very nice Best Western property. Room was clean. Beds were good. Plenty of towels. Free WiFi that worked well. We did not use the pool or another amenities. Oddly the breakfast was in the basement of the hotel, but appreciated how many choices there were. Staff was friendly and helpful. We would stay again if in the area.

"Was suprised!"
Madison M, 12 Juillet 2016

I was pleasantly suprised that the room and hotel room was nicer and cleaner than I expected based on some of the reviews that I had read. There were friendly staff at the desk at night (Akira and/or Katie?) and in the morning to help with local questions and just basically to say hello and good morning. We asked for extra pillow and received them right away, no questions asked. Basically, I would stay here again based on a few factors: The rooms were triple sheeted and clean. Most of everything worked at it should and it was able to help guests have a less stressful time away from home. The pool was nice. Breakfast was exactly what I would expect with some cold and hot choices. Laundry facilities on site were a benefit to many as they were being used on and off for the evening by other guests. The staff regularly checked pool towels and made sure that coffee and tea were available even at night. Of course, nothing is perfect. Items which were not the hotel's fault....For example, the parking lot at our arrival was literally ringed with couples and singles smoking outside their cars. Yes. i know outside smoking is not a huge issue normally; except that I am allergic and had I been travelling alone could not have unloaded my car since the smoke outside and around the building was so abundant. The kids even asked why it was so stinky. The hotel does in fact have a smoking area; but I did not see anyone use it while I was there. Since it was off of the pool through a propped open doorway, probably a good thing. Finally, I have to agree that the breakfast area did also have a hard time handling the number of people eating breakfast but mostly due to the fact that several couples and older eaters were there a long, long time. I came down early to get coffee right when it opened and things were pretty normal. Came down again after getting the kids ready an hour later (8am) and we checked out at (10am) several groups of people had been sitting and eating at the breakfast station the whole time. From my understanding they were grandparents waiting for each of the family members. My personal opinion was that it was rude to save seats for literally 3 hours when so many people needed a space to eat. The hotel was putting out food as fast as they could and they would have never been able to keep up. I felt bad because this meal was not made to be an "all you can eat to fill you up to dinner type of meal". Another group was apparently meeting for coffee, for two hours -- wonderful, but could you take it to another place in the hotel? The worse part is that I am not nosy it was just that egregious. Hotel: The carpet of our room was a little bit damp as if someone had accidently thawed the mini fridge/freezer and did not know to check the drain pan. The sheets were clean and the bed looked great but the person who made the bed made it a little on the shorter side so we had to take apart the beautifully made bed to that the covers would reach nearer to our shoulders. The location suited our needs and we will not hesitated to stay here again.

"Swarm lacrosse "
paul b, 10 Juillet 2016

Just had to write a review because our group had a great stay at the best Western historic williamsburg va. It all started with Kandi Shaw who took great care off all our needs and ended with a very friendly staff that made sure we enjoyed ourselves and also helped make our trip easier with there knowledge of the local area. I would suggest that if you are staying with a group or just yourself you give this place a try. I have had a lot of good and bad experiences and they are one of the best. Thanks again best Western historic staff We will be back

"Breakfast"
David L, 10 Juillet 2016

The breakfast area could not handle the number of guests staying at the hotel. There wasn't even enough food and drink to accommodate everyone. We went elsewhere for breakfast. We won't be staying at this hotel in the future.

"Extremely pleasant and convenient place to visit."
Linda F, 09 Juillet 2016

The staff was very pleasant and accommodating. We appreciated that they had laundry facilities and that they were located near many attractions. The room was very clean and had many amenities (refrigerator, free internet (that worked without any interference), and it was a safe area.

"Great location for all Williamsburg attractions"
Bep316, 07 Juillet 2016

Very helpful and pleasant front desk workers. Good breakfast variety with adequate table space. Rooms were clean but slightly dated. Microwave and refrigerator in room was very helpful. This hotel is located in very convenient area. Easy to get to Colonial area or Busch Gardens. Restaurants nearby. Decent value for the price.

"very close to all resturants and shops -great walking distance"
peggiep2015, 07 Juillet 2016

The room was very clean and great size. Moderate furnishings but slightly worn. The entry hallway was rather dark-could stand a hall light. Otherwise I loved my room. I have nothing else to say. The staff was very attentive to all of my needs especially after having a very bad experience at a nearby hotel. They saved my vacation. I will recommend this hotel to all of my friends who plan to visit Williamsburg in the near future.

"Front desk admin very rude upon check-in"
Raisha A, 07 Juillet 2016

PROS - about 15 minutes away from waterpark and busch gardens. Room wasn't that bad. The girl at the front desk was very rude and had a serious attitude upon check in. I didn't want to deal with her the whole time because I didn't want to have to curse her out. The light above the microwave wasn't working properly. It took about 30 minutes for it to come on after turning on the light switch. I called downstairs and was told that someone would fix it but that never happened. The staff breakfast was very friendly BUT the breakfast itself wasn't all that great. The food wasn't cooked well enough.

"Great Stay"
815springw, 07 Juillet 2016

The staff was amazing, friendly, and knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed the indoor pool and complimentary breakfast. We received everything we needed and more. The rooms were clean and fresh overall a great stay.

"Overall Good Stay"
Arthur C, 06 Juillet 2016

This is my first choice of hotels when in the Williamsburg area. This is our 5th or 6th stay at this location. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They make you feel like family. The breakfast area has been remodeled since our last stay, and it does not seem to flow as well to me. Some equipment was not working when we visited (Coffee machine). Overall, still a good stay.

"Our go-to hotel for Williamsburg vacations"
Kim W, 02 Juillet 2016

The staff at this hotel is top-notch. From the manager, to the front desk to housekeeping, they all go above and beyond. This was at least our third stay here and we will continue to stay here in the future. It is a convenient location but the staff make this hotel over the top great!

"Our Williamsburg Visit"
James N, 02 Juillet 2016

Best Western Plus was a pleasant surprise. The Staff was very attentive and made us feel at home from the first minute. Room was very comfortable and quiet even with families all around. We have usually stayed at either Hilton Garden Inn or Springhill by Marriott but we will now stay at Best Western Plus

"Clean, Comfortable & Affordable"
Roadrunner1023, 30 Juin 2016

The rooms were clean, desk service was great and friendly. Housekeeping did a great job. Breakfast does not include pancakes or waffles. Though there is sausage early in the morning and bacon later. Sometimes they run out of things but bring out others to replace them. One morning they ran out of yogurt completely and the fruit is canned (I think). Breakfast seems somewhat chaotic no matter what time you go, but everyone seems to flow and work well together. The breakfast attendants works very hard and keep up with everything pretty well. It was a bit noisy in the halls but we bring a fan so we don't hear all the hall chatter. Unfortunately even the best hotels have this problem. We would not hesitate to stay there again.

"Celebrated Hubs Birthday"
rosie1030, 23 Juin 2016

Wanted to do something different for my husband's birthday and he does enjoy Williamsburg as much as I do. So I saw the reviews of the Best Western Plus Historic Area and made the reservations. When we arrived on 6/18/16, we were warmly greeted by the staff who told us about the hotel and the surrounding area. We have been to Williamsburg many times but this was the first time anyone took the time to give us a run down of the area and what was new since our last visit. Had a small problem with the room and was immediately given another room even though the hotel was booked to the max for that day. Our stay was so enjoyable that we extended it another day, again the staff was very accommodating. The rooms are well appointed and the bed (king) was very comfortable. Highly recommend this hotel as it is close to everything the historic area has to offer. An extra smile to Asheika at the front desk who is the sweetest and most accommodating human I have ever encountered. She is truly a bit of sunshine.

"**Pleasent Stay**"
Knj7710, 23 Juin 2016

This was our 4 night family vacation to Williamsburg. The hospitality here was great. We didn't ask for much and we weren't complainers. When I had to deal with housekeeping for a few items it was with Miss Mary who is super pleasant. Also Ciarra the girl in the kitchen is great. She goes above and beyond to make sure you have what you need for your breakfast. And I'll tell you it's very hectic and people are very demanding. **MAKE SURE YOU USE YOUR TONGS FOR YOUR FOOD.......lol!!** last but not least the front desk staff is very pleasant as well especially Asheka and Miss Vanessa. Overall experience was great. Miss Vanessa even stepped in to help the gentleman in the kitchen when Ciarra was off. She did the best she could with both front desk and kitchen. Only complaint would be rooms need updating for being a Best Western Plus and our tub drain was clogged so it drained super slow. But it didn't effect out warm stay at all. A+++++++!

"Great Service recovery!"
comfortnurse, 23 Juin 2016

We booked this hotel online at a bargain rate for our trip to Williamsburg. We chose a room with 2 double beds for us and our 2 granddaughters. The first room had key cards that wouldn't work consistently, so we needed to have someone in the room to open the door for others. Finally, we reported the situation to Vanessa at the front desk and she upgraded us to a room with 2 queen beds at our same bargain rate. We loved the breakfasts, the pool and the location. We also asked the front desk for recommendations for a restaurant and were given a list, with one circled as the best, and it was! We would come back if we were going to Colonial Williamsburg again.

"Will definitely being staying again soon"
Leah D, 22 Juin 2016

This hotel was located within minutes to tons of restaurants and attractions. The room was very nice and clean so was the pool and breakfast area. It also host a huge menu for room service we didn't actually partake in the room service but the menu was nice. The front desk ladies all of them were very nice and helpful my family stay was great! Thank you

"Price was good, most likely will not return to this location."
David D, 21 Juin 2016

the beds were very uncomfortable. We selected a room with a jet tub, which did not work like it should have. Breakfast was good, however the forks, knives and spoons should be wrapped individually. Also when bringing out fresh food to restock the food that has been out awhile the old food needs to either be taken away or put on top of the new food, so someone is not getting eggs that have been setting forever. My wife worked in the food service industry for 7 years and was picking out all the flaws. I wish the pool had different hours for kids. I think its great the pool is open till 11 however, the kids should not be able to swim past 9. When we were there , we wanted to swim and enjoy the hot tub. However there were kids in the pool area that were jumping, screaming and going from pool to hot tub. Parents were not watching the kids closely, the kids were kicking beach balls and running by the pool.

"Average lodging"
Eric N, 21 Juin 2016

This motel/hotel, not sure which to call it, is fine for a vacation room in which to sleep. It was clean and offered a free breakfast. The room was average, nothing special. The TV remote didn't want to work otherwise the room was fine. The couple travelling with us had a dead electrical outlet so two of their lamps didn't work

"More than adequate hotel for the money"
davidiC5886DY, 18 Juin 2016

Rooms are okay size. According to my wife, bathroom is too small. Some disrepair. Breakfast very good w/many choices. Pool nice enough. Decent location. Close to K-Mart, DQ, Mini Golf. Many good restaurants within two miles.

"Hotel needs better accommodation for Seniors/Handicap and Better supervision of Children"
Charles B, 15 Juin 2016

1. The room needs to be updated. 2. Commode was too low for Handicap/Seniors (Wheel chair height Needed) 3. Needed better supervision of children by the Chaperones (who were not with them at breakfast) Wife who is handicapped almost knocked down by the unsupervised children. 4. Management needed to reinforce upon check in with groups of children about needing to supervise their children. Could have been a law suit in the making if any Senior Citizen or Handicapped person were injured due to this unsupervised activity. And, 5. The key cards didn't work all of the time and had to walk around building to get in.

"Good, Close, Reasonable"
recorder, 15 Juin 2016

You are 5 minutes away from the Visitor's Center at Colonial Williamsburg. The rooms are very good, the breakfast scene is very busy in the summer with LOTS of people trying to eat. The rates are better than most properties around making for a good place to crash in between visiting all the surrounding historical sites, including Jamestowne and Yorktown.

"Dirty!! Gross!!!"
SLavine, 15 Juin 2016

The reception ladies were very friendly. It is an older building and needs a little updating but for the price I expected that. However, what I do not expect is a very dirty fridge (see pictures), hair in the sink and surrounding area, someone's USED bar soap in the dresser in a plastic bag, and in the other room, someone did not clean the toilet very well so their was someone else's feces along the rim. So, numerous health code violations from just that. Manager would not come out to speak with us, even though on premises, but instead had receptionist give us a a business card. This was after 8 am at 9 am when managers are there( she also went to the office door to get him/her). To me if you are a manager and refuse to address issues in person with guest checking out, then you should not be a manager. Very unprofessional. I don't get the good reviews. Are standards really this low and expected and people just do not care? Mind blowing. Therefore, I am doing a review to warn others that you get what you pay for plus hair, old food, poop, and used bar soap. Oh and dusty common areas (see picture) Must have been their version of "amenities". Go somewhere else!

"Stayed here for a week visiting the Historical Area"
Chuck W, 11 Juin 2016

Very nice hotel. Quiet. Clean. Very nice staff. Ideal location. Breakfast is the standard Best Western breakfast, so you might want to skip it and eat at the Cracker Barrel across the street or at one of the many nearby pancake houses. Great stay otherwise.

"Comfortable, friendly and swimming pool"
Milene1, 10 Juin 2016

We had a couple of nights in this hotel. The lobby is superbly decorated and very modern, where breakfast is served also. On arrival we felt a touch of luxury, our room 2 queens bed was spacious but decorated in a old fashion which is a contrast from the lobby. Nevertheless the room was comfortable. It was enjoyable to have the use of the swimming pool, we were lucky enough to find empty both days. The breakfast was average, nothing special. We spent the day at the Colonial Williamsburg which is only a few minutes drive down the road, it's like stepping into the past. Highly recommended

"personal pleasure review for two senior citizens"
Charles H, 06 Juin 2016

The hotel was very good for the price. The staff was very helpful and courteous. The lobby was beautiful and pleasant. Nice variety of breakfast items. The beds were very comfortable. The room was ok. the pull out sofa beds needed some work. The bathroom ameneties could be changed to something better.

"nice hotel, friendly staff, great value"
Deborah P, 06 Juin 2016

The hotel was nice. The staff was helpful, from the person at check in to the housekeeper to the breakfast attendant. . Breakfast was good. (eggs, bacon, sausage and a host of other items). Room was clean and had a small fridge with a coffee pot.

"Welcoming Staff and Great Location"
Maziray, 06 Juin 2016

We arrived late and the staff greeted us with a smile. The room we stayed in appeared to be newly renovated. Although it was a handicap room (hopefully there were others should someone really need it), the bathroom was very large with a shower chair that could be put into the standard bathtub. The choices for complimentary breakfast was great - fruit (cocktail and fresh), yogurt, cereal, scrambled eggs, bacon (could have been cooked more), french toast sticks, toaster waffles, bagels, and more. The checkout was quick and they even offer a "Grab n Go" bag for those who have to check out before breakfast. Very nice. The location was great, off the busy highway but close enough to Jamestown attractions, Colonial Williamsburg, and downtown.

"Good Hotel"
Paul S, 02 Juin 2016

A very good hotel location. Great value for the money. Good service and pleasant staff. Also, the rooms are very quiet. Very close to all the attractions in Williamsburg. Staff were very helpful and courteous.

"Good location and friendly staff"
rpillai494, 26 Mai 2016

The best things about this place were the friendliness of the staff and the location of the property. The room had seen better days and overlooked the parking lot. However, you could walk over to restaurants and some shopping (especially for essentials). It was also close to the historic Williamsburg area if you had your own transportation. I liked having the microwave and refrigerator in the room. Breakfast was quite decent.

The hotel was very appealing. The lobby was very inviting. the staff was very friendly and helpful. The only problem I found was we chose the room with a jaccuzi tub. tThe tub was a nightmare. Maybe if house cleaning focused on cleaning these tubs better, it could be a great hotel to visit.

"good value"
William Y, 23 Mai 2016

Clean, friendly, good value. We needed three rooms for two nights during the W&M graduation and were very pleased. A bit older, but well maintained. Great staff. Breakfast was ok, a bit crowded. Otherwise - all went well. Would stay again.

"Enjoyable Stay!!"
Tammyg050, 19 Mai 2016

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. The hotel was very clean and quiet. The staff warm and friendly. The breakfast was very good. It was close by to restaurants and attractions. We had refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker in the room. Nice big comfy beds and pillows. I would recommend to anyone. Will stay here again!!!

"Excellent front desk staff"
We-L0VE-Adventure, 18 Mai 2016

Front desk staff make or break your visit to any hotel, and the front desk staff at this hotel are welcoming, respectful, helpful and polite! The lobby / breakfast area is bright and clean, the rooms are what you would expect! A nice indoor pool with a jacuzzi - and a nice bright laundry room area. The location is very centrally convenient for access to Yorktown and Jamestown as well as restaurants and shopping. We will definitely stay at this hotel again.

"One fly in the ointment"
trojan77, 18 Mai 2016

Hotel was clean and comfortable. Close to Colonial Williamsburg. Fantastic large indoor pool and whirlpool. Breakfast was mediocre and never ready to go at 7. Housekeeping and front desk staff very friendly and accomodating. The fly in the ointment was the male employee who worked the breakfast area. Our first morning the serving utensils weren't all out so when I didn't see tongs for bread I just picked up the bread for my toast with my hand...only touching the slices I picked up. This employee said to me, in front of other guests, "You can't use the tongs or at least a napkin?" I felt embarrassed at his uncalled for and sarcastic remark. He obviously doesn't know the meaning of tact or that admonishing guests is not in his job description. Judging by comments to other guests he doesn't know the meaning of please and everything he says sounds like an order. To make matters worse this morning he came up again and again in front of several other guests said "Use the napkin to pick up the food today." I am still in shock with the manner he spoke to me.

"Stop Over"
supergirl54amv, 18 Mai 2016

This was a good place to stay as we were only staying one night to see Colonial Williamsburg. Hotel is clean and quite staff very friendly gave us directions to a few places we wanted to see. The only draw back is that the air conditioner was a little loud but it was ok. Like the fact that they have in room coffee too. Very close to colonial Williamsburg too!! And lastly you really can't beat the rates.

"Fabulous! "
Gail U, 17 Mai 2016

I can't say enough about this hotel! First of all, the location is so central to everything and also nearby restaurants almost within walking distance but certainly not far to drive to anything. Historic Williamsburg is only a mile away! Rooms are clean, quiet and well maintained for an older hotel. Plenty of parking, free coffee all the time. Breakfast is good with a large variety to choose from and very carefully maintained. Breakfast room is big enough to accommodate the morning rush! There are many places to choose to stay in Williamsburg. We're glad we choose Best Western Plus!

"Pleasant Stay"
Stephanie T, 17 Mai 2016

We made very last minute reservations for a great price. Front desk staff was extremely friendly and informative upon check in. The room we were given did not have working AC, and with 2 infants we needed it - staff set us up with a new room immediately with no issue at all. Comfortable room, took advantage of the pool and great breakfast. We all had a lovely stay and would definitely use again and recommend!

"Great place to stay"
Amanda J, 13 Mai 2016

We enjoyed our stay here over Mother's Day weekend. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and so was the other areas of the hotel. Breakfast each morning was good. The location is very convenient for all areas of Williamsburg. We will remember this hotel for future visits.

"Pleasant Visit"
U7965IDrobertap, 10 Mai 2016

I found the hotel to be a pleasant experience. Lovely décor. Friendly staff. No problems experienced. Out of the way of the hustle and bustle of Williamsburg, VA yet close to many venues. Close to many restaurants and shops.

"Convenient location"
Stephen H, 09 Mai 2016

My wife and I visited Historic Williamsburg and chose to stay at the Best Western. It is in a convenient location, easy to find, and not far from the Williamsburg Visitor Centre. This is an older property, we were comfortable here and it was kept clean. Service was excellent; this is the first hotel that has ever called our room after we checked in to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Breakfast could be improved by adding fresh fruit; also the scrambled eggs were watery.

"Solid stay for this class of hotel"
Visitor1999, 06 Mai 2016

My family stay here two nights. I was very satisfied with the hotel given its class. Mind you, this is not the Waldorf Astoria. So wipe that out of your expectations. For a 2.5 to 3-star hotel, this Best Western does its job very well. While some parts of the hotel look a little tattered. But in general, they were in good shape. No complaints from me for these areas that need a little TLC because I didn't pay for that level of extravagance. Also, the free breakfast was solid. Nothing special, but very good given the hotel price. The swimming pool was also really good size and good quality. We used it very night. The hotel staff were really friendly and helpful. I would stay here again.

"Get-A-Way"
Carla H, 04 Mai 2016

The location of this hotel was amazing for any activity we were interested in. Shopping, restaurants, and site seeing were very convenient. The hotel even provided a travel info booklet and a sheet of specific directions to areas/sites when pulling out of their parking lot!! This was a spur of the moment trip for us but I can't imagine planning a better place to stay, even in advance!

"Perfect for Families, Close to everything"
gaylancsu, 02 Mai 2016

We stayed 3 nights recently with a 1 year old and this hotel was perfect for our visit to Williamsburg. A crib was already in the room when we checked in per our request and staff called the room shortly after check in to make sure we had everything we needed. The staff was so nice, everyone made a big deal over our little boy- and he loves attention and mommy and daddy love feeling welcome in a place with a toddler. Breakfast was better than typical continental with several hot options daily. Due to several large school groups staying while we were there you had to time it right, but the staff worked hard to maintain the breakfast area and keep food fresh. Our room was clean and comfortable king with a sofa and coffee table and desk and plenty of room for the portacrib. They also had a very nice indoor pool area with a large pool and plenty of seating. The hotel is convenient to Colonial Williamsburg (less than 5 min drive) as well as Busch Gardens and plenty of dining options. Overall a comfortable stay and a great value.

"Luxury Near Wmsbg."
L7427JUchristines, 29 Avril 2016

A nice, quality hotel. Nice staff, comfortable lobby and adequate breakfast. Coffee from a Kurig, tastes like instant. Two beds in room, one not so comfortable. Needed replacing. Back room as requested overlooked the roof. Quiet and five minutes from Colonial Wmsbg.

"Place needs a bath"
Maureen W, 29 Avril 2016

Breakfast is horrible. Brunt or uncooked food. Dirty counters and floors in lobby and eating area, Not vacuumed once during our stay. Door locks don't release and staff tells to try over again and again and very slow and then, sometimes they worked.

"Everything I need at a great price"
Karen B, 28 Avril 2016

Every time I come to Williamsburg, I stay here. It's located close to the Historic Area and William & Mary. I know I'll always have a clean room, great service, internet, free breakfast and a low price. They are now entirely smoke-free too. There is no other choice for me when it comes to accommodations. It's always Best Western Historic Area.

"Family Trip"
LisaLewis2015, 22 Avril 2016

First time to the area so read many reviews trying to ensure a good family experience. Decided to book the hotel with the least amount of poor reviews and crossed my fingers. We were greeted by two very friendly desk staff. They helped us plan our excursions and recommended good eats. Clean room with frig and microwave. Ten minutes after getting in our room the phone rang. The front desk checking in to see if we were satisfied or needed more of anything. Good breakfast choices to start our busy day. Very nice pool. Definitely would book again.

"Good value, great location, friendly and professional staff"
Frieda C, 19 Avril 2016

This Best Western Plus was a good value, great location- close to both Colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens. Their staff was friendly and professional and went out of their way to make sure our stay was pleasant. Rooms were very clean, and comfortable, and pretty quiet. There were a lot of families there during our stay and we never heard anyone.

"Great in case of rain"
N8303HQcindyb, 19 Avril 2016

The pool was super on an surprise rain day and the rooms were larger then the norm. I even used my air miles points for a free night. Location was central to everything outlets, history and restaurants.

"Nice hotel"
jimar, 17 Avril 2016

Nice hotel, clean, spacious room. Refrigerator and microwave. Lobby and breakfast area very nicely done. Coffee 24 hours. Staff friendly and helpful. Restaurants walking distance. Williamsburg Colonial Village about 1.5 miles away.

"Best Pool"
Mamacia, 11 Avril 2016

I enjoyed the pool area and exercise area a lot. It's an indoor pool, very warm and clean, and large enough for lap swimming if you're interested. The room was clean and up to date. Microwave and refrigerator a plus.

"Not crazy about this hotel."
jackiehuff, 09 Avril 2016

The furniture in the room was small and a bit beat up, the drawers sagged on the slides. Night table too small for books, etc, for 2 beds. Limited selection in dining room; same eggs and sausage all 3 mornings, few bread selections. Coffee not as good as other BW hotels we stayed at during this road trip. Chairs in the dining room not comfortable. Staff very nice and helpful.

"Pleased"
Susan P, 08 Avril 2016

Very pleased with the package deal we purchased for Williamsburg. It was a pleasant stay and I would go again. The kids had a blast in the pool and the hotel is close to everything we were interested in.

"Good Hotel"
Allan1234, 05 Avril 2016

This is a nice hotel close to all the attractions at Williamsburg. The hotel is clean and well appointed. Free Best Western breakfast, it is somewhat bland but I guess better than nothing. Staff were polite and helpful with directions. I would stay there again.

"Clean Room, Unsatisfying Breakfast"
Denise K, 05 Avril 2016

The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was awesome. The complimentary breakfast was unsatisfactory. Mediocre temperature, slow to replenish and several items not tasty at all.... A benefit we look forward to at most hotels. We checked out hungry and had to get food elsewhere. Disappointing.

"Just OK"
Jessica K, 04 Avril 2016

I'd say the best thing about the hotel is the location and price. It's close to everything you'd need in Williamsburg - Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens, go-karts, and mini golf. The rooms were lacking though. They weren't that bad, but the beds were incredibly uncomfortable (like an air mattress) and the bathroom was really small. The sheets didn't seem as clean as they could be and the room always felt a little humid. The continental breakfast was ok, just not enough space to eat if the hotel gets crowded. One morning we had to stand and wait for a table. The pool wasn't bad, the kids enjoyed it. It wasn't a bad stay, but I don't think I'd choose this hotel again.

"Everything we needed"
saintmels, 03 Avril 2016

We spent 4 nights at the Best Western Plus Historic Inn. It was only a few minutes drive from Colonial Williamsburg and 15 minute drive to Busch Gardens. The room was standard and had a microwave and fridge which was nice. The breakfast was included and had hot and cold items.. Your standard breakfast. It was Spring Break so it was crowded but we were able to get a seat every morning. The main reason we chose the hotel was the indoor heated pool and hot tub were open until 11 pm and it was so nice to swim and relax after a long day of walking. The pool was warm and relaxing. The pool had a lot of kids since it was Spring Break which was good for us as our 11 year old had a great time meeting kids from all over. We had an issue with our TV which they immediately addressed. The front desk were very nice and helpful. The smokehouse restaurant next door was good and had gluten free options. There is a Cracker Barrel and Golden Corral across the street. We had a great time and will definitely return.

"Great Value In Willimsburg"
NjBill2014, 03 Avril 2016

Well maintained hotel and friendly staff. Breakfast was awesome each day. Rooms nicely done with very comfortable beds. Pool well maintained and nice hot tube. Convenient to all Williamsburg area attractions. I would stay there again!

"Trip"
Dherry D, 02 Avril 2016

Staff was great. Location to Colonial Williamsburg was really good (about 2 miles). The only down falls for this BW is the breakfast, noise, and the bed. I can only eat so much cereal, so my wife and I decided to go to Cracker Barrel. The bed was either very old or already wore out. The metal if you were sitting on the side of the bed would dig into your legs.With a bad back the bed is very important to me so that is why we cut our vacation one day short. I do not recommend the first floor to stay on because the noise from people checking in and the ones going to their room was very loud, I was finally able to go to sleep around 1 in the morning. Would I stay there again? Maybe, I would have to check out the bed first and make sure I was not on the first floor.

"Well located hotel"
Candace V, 31 Mars 2016

This hotel was centrally located in Williamsburg. Our granddaughters thoroughly enjoyed the indoor pool. The staff was very friendly and the breakfast staff tried to keep up with the spring break overflow in a pleasant manner. The only complaint was a lack of ventilation in the room's bathroom.

"What You'd Expect from a 2 Circle Rating"
SlyGuy21, 30 Mars 2016

Nothing terribly wrong with the place. Room was clean, though in need of a bit of updating. For us, the nights were quiet, so sleep was good. Personnel were okay. Again, nothing really negative, but I felt like they went about their business like it was their job and they were waiting for the clock to tick so they could finish their shift. Didn't feel like anyone went out of their way to make us feel particularly welcome. Breakfast (included) was basic, served on cheap paper plates. On our second morning, they were hard pressed to keep up with demand, running out of items well before the end of the breakfast time. Cleanliness around the breakfast area, especially on that second day was also a bit behind schedule. The price we got was very reasonable, so I don't have any major complaint. Just don't expect too much out of this place and you'll be fine. Golden Corral and Cracker Barrel (are those two places always right near each other?) are within a minute of the hotel. Kmart right across street. Many other eating options within 5 minutes.

"Great stay and location"
Janina L, 30 Mars 2016

The front desk reception Vanessa was amazing. So very helpful and friendly. The hotel is in a great location and very clean. I love that the pool indoor which is great for cold weather. The breakfast was also good even though it got crowded quickly but the attendant did a good job keeping up with the items missing.

"Good value and location"
caveguy66, 26 Mars 2016

We stayed here for several nights during a Spring Break visit to Williamsburg. The front desk staff was really friendly and the place was reasonably clean although definitely an older property. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast was very crowded - the standard fare that fills you up but nothing special. Lots of families and the pool was very popular. The location is good - very close to Colonial Williamsburg and other attractions/restaurants. We would stay here again as a solid but unexciting choice.

"Always Coming to Best Western When In Williamsburg ..."
Lisa M, 26 Mars 2016

My business travel brings me to Williamsburg very often. Two trips ago, I stayed at another chain because their rates were lower. Sadly, it wasn't worth the savings. The other hotel's staff didn't compare to Best Western. With the exception of one person, they really didn't seem to care about their guests at all. Best Western has a friendly, helpful staff that make it their business to make guests feel like they matter. No more experimenting with other hotel chains. When in Williamsburg, Best Western will always get my business.

"Tidewater tastefulness"
DoeHEAD, 25 Mars 2016

Last week, on the occasion of a visit to Williamsburg, I decided to return to this hotel after having had a satisfying experience there three years ago. Once again, I was not disappointed. It's amazingly convenient: located on the area's primary commercial highway, about 5 minutes from the Colonial Williamsburg Visitors Center and a couple more minutes from the historic area itself. (Treat yourself to an authentic colonial dinner by parking in the free public lot behind the commercial shops on Duke of Gloucester Street and walking to any of the historic area restaurants.) My room was spacious and comfortable for a surprisingly affordable price. It was a short walk to the lobby, the elevators, the multiple guest laundry areas, the vending and electronic games area and the lovely indoor pool. The lobby and breakfast area are bright and pleasant. The piney grounds are well-kept. And the staff are eager to be helpful. It should be noted that this is in a landscape fraught with all sorts of choices for overnight accommodations. Yet this hotel is NOT a get-'em-in/get-'em-out kind of operation. It's a non-pressured, tranquil place that makes an already interesting and delightful visit to Colonial Williamsburg that much more rewarding...in contrast, it should be noted, with another Best Western we'd stayed in the evening before, and for which we paid considerably more for a far less satisfying experience.

"DISAPPOINTED"
Panamaannie, 22 Mars 2016

Breakfast was a good selection, but all items were low quality, fake eggs, canned fruit, no variety creamers. Lights in room didn't work, keys never worked and constantly had to be replaced. I was looking for a step up from Quality Inn where we usually stay, but it was not. Room was small. Staff was nice.

"Stayed here for Jefferson Cup Soccer Tournament"
Jennifer G, 21 Mars 2016

We stayed here for Jeff Cup. Overall very happy with our stay. Price is right and the location is great to the Warhill Complex (less than 10 mins away). Very large pool area. Plenty of parking. Location has tons of restaurants around it. Free breakfast, but have to be honest, I've had better complimentary breakfasts. Friendly staff and our room was clean. Would stay here again for a soccer trip. Free wifi.

"Delightful Stay and A Cookie When You Check In"
Mimi W, 19 Mars 2016

We stayed one night, just to get away! Trip Advisor had very good reviews and caught a deal for the night. It went up $35.00 the next day! Not right on main road so was quieter, staff outstanding, room clean and bed comfy. Wifi very fast. Continental breakfast also included sausage, eggs and French toast sticks. Clean buffet. Very tasty.. We saw that the breakfast area when we got in looked small, but at breakfast time there were a few tables empty and no one had to wait. And those chairs, nice and soft. If you find negatives about this place you are looking mighty hard! Thanks Trip Advisor and Best Western!

"Great hotel!!"
Jennifer B, 14 Mars 2016

We recently stayed at the Best Western for a bowling tournament. I would rate this as one of the top 10 hotels we have stayed at. Very nice, large rooms with comfortable beds. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great! Will definitely stay again and recommend to others.

"Nice GROUPON deal, nice room, staff"
User, 13 Mars 2016

Room was clean, comfy beds. Great deal off GROUPON. Nice staff, they called our room shortly after we arrived inside to check if we needed anything. We Did not get the free breakfast as it was removed before 11 am check out. I would return and would recommend.

"Great staff"
BJNS, 09 Mars 2016

I am so late coming here to post a review of this truly nice hotel. We stayed Thanksgiving week, and got a great room at a terrific price. The staff was friendly, accomodating, and always at the desk where they should be. Good breakfast. Though renovations were being done while we were there, the workers did their best to be unobtrusive. The indoor pool was far warmer than that of any other hotel we've stayed in in a long time. And, at last, a hotel with a decent wifi. Not a bit of trouble with it as we've had at other places where they wanted the guests to upgrade to better wifi. Can't remember the manager's name, and I do want to mention her for exceptional attention to not only us, but other guests. She was the little pregnant one. Thank you!

"good visit"
Timothy Edward R, 09 Mars 2016

breakfast was good but no make your own waffle, did have scrambled eggs and sausage patties. room was clean and beds were comfortable Less than 2 miles from colonial williamsburg but had to cross busy bypass road route 60 to get to sidewalk that leads to williamsburg

"Staff"
56deborahh, 23 Février 2016

Excellent Staff Rooms comfortable remodel looking great Kept very clean . We love the location of hotel easy access to downtown as well as Richmond rd as well as areas of interest. . Breakfast has good options coffee & tea available all day .

"Another Great Stay"
Elizabet M, 17 Février 2016

Alexis Williams and her staff go out of their way to make guests feel like family. The hotel is beautiful, clean and the amenities are great! The indoor pool, heated Jacuzzi and fitness room where very welcomed after being out in the cold! Breakfast is hardy and delicious in the beautifully renovated dining area. Beds are super comfy!

"This was a nice affordable place while visiting Williamsburg, VA"
Vince W, 04 Février 2016

It was a nice stay. The staff was very nice, rooms were in great shape, the pool was heated, lets not forget the free breakfast. It was in a very quiet area and walking distance to cracker barrel restaurant, which was nice.

"Great Hotel"
Scott B, 19 Janvier 2016

We stayed for my birthday weekend 1/16 -1/18. Very nice hotel with great staff. Good location. Good breakfast bar and area. Room was a king with a nice bed. Internet worked very well. We were able to park close to our room for easy in and outs. Will return for sure the next time we are in Williamsburg.

"When Best Is Not the Best..."
Black0ut1983, 18 Janvier 2016

Williamsburg, VA is a wonderful place to visit and check out Colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens. For most people such as myself who visits Williamsburg, a good hotel is often necessary to take advantage of what Williamsburg has to offer. I decided to take my family to Williamsburg for New Year's. This trip was a gift to my two daughters for Christmas. Because I have tons of points for Best Western, I decided to use the points to stay at this Best Western. This is my experience while staying at this hotel. Location The best part about staying at this hotel is the location. It is not too far from many of the attractions in Williamsburg. If you want to get to Colonial Williamsburg, it will take you under 10 minutes, depending on traffic. If you want to visit Bush Gardens, it will take you about 15, also depending on traffic. The hotel sits close to downtown Williamsburg, so you can expect some very good restaurants. If you are looking for your common restaurants, you can find Golden Corral or Cracker Barrel. The area is very safe. Service There are a few things about this Best Western that made it just average. On New Year's Eve, I checked with my family. The receptionist that day was doing her job, but it was clear that she didn't want to be there. She wouldn't smile at all. It was like she was very mad that she had to work on that day. Once I saw her face, I wanted to just get my keys and bolt to bolt to my room. One receptionist that I want to give praise is Maris. She was phenomenal. I realized that I booked the room for two nights instead of three. I told my wife, and we went to talk to her. With a simple smile and a few clicks on her computer, she used some more of my points to add another night. She can also cook very delicious eggs. She was the bright spot that made this hotel a pleasant stay. As for breakfast, it is nothing special. You get your typical Best Western food such as eggs, cereal, and juice. The breakfast area has plenty of seats, but I wasn't a fan of how close the tables were to each other. It seemed like I was going to bump into other people when moving around. My wife noticed that the person who was serving breakfast didn't care about refilling certain breakfast items. When people were asking for a refill of the cereal, he didn't fulfil their requests. Room The room was neat and clean when we entered. You will get hygiene items and towels. The bed is very comfortable, even though it was a queen. Also, there's a flat screen TV, which doesn't provide any digital networks. I find this a bit annoying, but I'm nitpicking at this point. The room had an amazing view of Busch Gardens. When the clock hit midnight for New Year's Day, my wife and I got to see fireworks from Busch Gardens. Extras There's an indoor pool I didn't get to use the it, but my wife did. She enjoyed it and relaxed her very much. There's a workout room, but I would consider it below average. I say this because it just had three cardio machines and no weights. As for parking, there's plenty of parking. As for WI-FI, it's decently fast, but a lot of people can quickly bog it down. Overall, could you do better? Yes, you can. Is it the best of the Best Westerns? No, it's not. Is this suitable to check out Williamsburg? Yes, it is.

"Never pay full price for this place"
Christine B, 17 Janvier 2016

I purchased this stay through Groupon, so it was reasonable. If I had to pay in season prices for this place, I would be very angry. The beds were very comfortable, but the tile work and cabinetry was well used. The shower curtain had a burn hole in it and was hidden by twisting the curtain and putting it through the soap dish. Breakfast was so bad, I had to throw out the english muffin before toasting it. The fresh fruit was old and looked it. The front desk staff was so professional and helpful, I expected a nicer stay. The indoor pool was being renovated so I can't say too much about the shabby look. The front lobby and dining area was very nice.

"Great mid priced hotel and a great location for Williamsburg"
Bruce L, 16 Janvier 2016

This is a great mid priced hotel. We were in the area for the Bush Gardens Christmas lights and it was only a short drive from here. The rooms were large enough to hold a pull out sofa bed and a king bed.The carpets, bathrooms, and furniture were in good shape. They did skimp on the towels, as those were a bit thin and rough. The indoor pool was very large and had a large hot whirlpool bath. I was thrilled to find that the pool was actually heated and felt comfortable. During a rainy spell my grandson and I spent some good time in the pool. The location is in sight of several restaurants, including a Golden Corral. The traffic is a bit heavy for walking to eat. The room cost us $100/night including all taxes (which are several). My daughter & family stayed in a separate room. The free hot breakfast was the usual Best Western, which I enjoy. The seating was packed.

"IT MAY WORK FOR SOME, BUT NOT FOR ME"
Dee57597, 14 Janvier 2016

The outside of the building looks great. However, the inside needs renovations. To their credit, they have begun just that. The breakfast area is newly remodeled and nicely done. It has black top tables and white leather looking chairs. There are also two flat screens in the eating/lobby area. The continental breakfast was great the first day. It had a variety of items. On the remaining days we were there, they put out less breakfast items. The bathroom is small but it too appears to be newly remodeled and nicely done. There is a large flat screen television in the room. The business center is also nicely done. However, the carpets in the hallways are very dirty. In the room we were in, a portion of the wall is in a collapsed state. There is no exhaust system in the bathroom. The sheets and pillowcases had dried blood, paint, makeup or nail polish on them. The furniture in the room is worn and old. But the worst in my opinion is as follows: We had a Do Not Disturb displayed. Despite that, a housekeeper knocked at the door. We ignored it at first but she kept knocking. I finally answered as she was about to enter the room. She handed me a gift package courtesy of the hotel. It was bottled water, candy, a granola bar, and cheese crackers. She explained that she was told to knock even if a Do Not Disturb sign was displayed. The gesture was a nice one. I think management could have found a better way to ensure the guests received the gifts without disturbing them. Unless it is an emergency, Do Not Disturb means Do Not Disturb. Secondly, when we arrived, we had to go to the front desk three times because the lock would not work. Another guest on the first floor had the same problem. We finally had to ask her to come up to see if she could operate it as we were unsuccessful in getting it open. When she arrived, she stated the battery was weak and needed to be replaced. I wanted another room as we had to make several trips back to the car to bring our luggage in. She stated it was not a big deal and she would have the maintenance person replace the battery the following day. To her credit it was replaced the following day. She acted as though she did not want to switch our room. She told us just to make sure the card hit the back of the door. We did even though it took up to 3-5 minutes each time before it would open. Third, on our third day, I went to the breakfast area to retrieve a couple of packets of ketchup for my lunch after breakfast was over. The male attendant was sweeping the floor. As I retrieved the packets he stopped sweeping and looked up at me as though I was doing something wrong. It made me very uncomfortable. Lastly, on our last day the housekeeper kept asking my family member and I on four different occasions, from the time we went down for breakfast until we began to take our luggage out, if we were leaving. It became downright irritating. I do not understand what her problem was. I can tell you we were glad to be leaving.

"Enjoyed myself thoroughly"
3elizabethp, 04 Janvier 2016

Very helpful staff. Comfortable room and bed. The indoor pool and hot tub were just perfect. I'll be back! This Best Western is very close to Colonial Williamsburg, a place I visit often. As a museum director, I go there often.

"Best Western Historic Williamsburg"
Susan E, 29 Décembre 2015

We were seeking a hotel so we didn't have to drive home from Christmastown tired. Our stay at the Best western became a mini vacation. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, the beds were very comfortable, the breakfast is delicious and the pool and jaccuzzi open at 9 am so we went swimming prior to our departure. We plan on returning next year!

"First Romantic Getaway"
Brian G, 28 Décembre 2015

The staff was outstanding!! The hotel was under renovations that were not noted on the website. The whirlpool tub was flaking when filled. The pictures of the Breakfast Room, King Suite, and Fitness Center looked a lot nicer than what was actually available.

"not bad (off season during renovation)"
Ziggy W, 23 Décembre 2015

We visited 2 rooms 2 nights in December midweek. Although the place is in the middle of a renovation there was minimal disruption for either couple. The pool was open even though it is off season, unlike most hotels in the area. A bit high on the chlorine but for a hotel pool and the potential for problems it was not out of line. The breakfast was good with meat and eggs included which is odd for the area too. A bus group was occupying most of the seating both mornings but we got by ok. The room seemed clean and had no signs of improper cleaning. all in all for the price and the area it was ok. a lot of hotels in the area are overpriced tourist trap hotels with questionable cleaning and ammenties.... i will keep this one in mind for my next visit.

"you get what you pay for"
Jenny K, 21 Décembre 2015

For the rate it was ok...but the beds were pretty uncomfortable but the pillows were comfortable. The ac didnt work well. Breakfast area was total chaos and people had to wait quite awhile for food. Check in and check out was good and the staff were courteous.

"Most Enjoyable!!!!"
mopman, 19 Décembre 2015

Had a great stay here for 4 nights, right from the door, the lobby was getting renovations, but you wouldn't know it,what I mean by that is that there were no disruptions to the lobby at all, the rooms were a little old, but very clean, housekeeping does a bang up job, the pool was a nice touch after a long day in Colonial Williamsburg, plus the closeness to the Williamsburg Info Center was great, also last but not least , was the breakfast, the usual fare, but was always hot, the place was kept stocked and clean by 2 gentleman, who were on top of things, the wifi worked great, plus the coffee and other things , yogurt, hot chocolate, tea was 24 hr which was nice.Also plenty of places to eat right up the street, my favorite Roccos and Cracker Barrell

very nice & helpful, housekeeping did a very nice job. Breakfast staff kept dishes full. Hot food available variety was excellent. Construction crew was working daily to provide updates to lobby & breakfast area.

"Overnight Williamsburg Trip"
Katy H, 15 Décembre 2015

From the outside the hotel looks neglected, but as soon as you step in the doors it is a different story! The lobby is beautiful and the customer service is exceptional! Although you can see the age in the rooms, they are VERY clean! The only negative of this hotel was how thin the walls were. Laying in bed, you could hear the person in the room next to you using the rest room (very awkward). I was very impressed with not only the customer service, but also the cleanliness. It's a great hotel to stay for a night or two.

"Perfect for weekend trip to Williamsburg"
Suzanne0927, 14 Décembre 2015

Our family visited Williamsburg and Busch Gardens this past weekend and this hotel was perfect for our needs. Front desk staff was friendly, room was comfortable and breakfast was adequate. Very close to historic area as well as Busch Gardens. Our only complaint would be the quality of the tv - poor sound and picture. We would stay here again.

"Wonderful stay!"
Sarina14, 12 Décembre 2015

I am so glad we chose this hotel to stay during our visit to Colonial Williamsburg. We had driven down from Washington DC and were quite tired. It was nice to be able to take a lovely hot shower and able to relax on a really comfortable bed. The staff was polite and helpful. The location was perfect---- very close to Colonial WIlliamsburg as well as William and Mary. There were many places to eat closeby. The best part was that we had an amazing pizza place right across the parking lot which was open late into the wee hours! And so when we felt hungry for a late night snack, we just walked across and ordered delicious pizza that was out of this world! While I appreciated the hot breakfast, I wish the food had not been so fatty. Liked that I could make my own waffles though. I would recommend this place to all anytime!!

"Williamsburg visit"
John B, 11 Décembre 2015

Overall, I would say our visit was very good. A bit disappointed with breakfast as the eggs were a bit runny & the sausage links lukewarm. We did have problems with the room keys but that was corrected quickly but the bed comfort was not exactly what I would expect from Best Western.

"Great stay!"
Kesling92, 10 Décembre 2015

We stayed here for 4 nights to visit Jamestown and Busch Gardens. Great location central to everything. Good hot breakfast and nice clean room. Pool area was nice as well son loved it. Will stay again and would recommend!

"Great stay."
Ann K, 07 Décembre 2015

The hotel staff and the location (close to Colonial Williamsburg and William & Mary) are the best things about this hotel. The hotel was clean and comfortable, the internet worked, and breakfast was just fine. Would stay again.

"Don't listen to bad reviews"
cosmogirlpearl0, 01 Décembre 2015

This was a great hotel. People complained previously about the breakfast and construction. The breakfast was good. If you want great, go out and eat. You could not really notice the repairs in the breakfast room. The room was clean. The pool was also clean. We were so busy, we only used it once! Every person that worked there was very helpful.

"Average Hotel"
Kayze G, 01 Décembre 2015

When we arrived at front desk, the lady was not pleasant, no smile, just said license and cc . Made no conversation. Im thinking she was a manager because she was dressed different then other girls, and kept walking back to the back office(but not sure) Once we entered the room we immediately noticed the dampness feeling and saw it was very dusty. When we went to put our luggage on the bed we noticed hand prints all over the head board, i called front desk and asked to be moved ,The next room they put us in the a/c would not cool the room. The carpets were stained bad and turned all of our socks black. AND THE INTERNET NEVER WORKED DURING OUR STAY, THAT WAS HORRIBLE because my son was trying to do his online classes and couldnt do it. Other then those issues everything was fine. The breakfast area was clean and the breakfast attendant kept things stocked and he was very friendly. The house keeper (sorry dont remember her name) was very friendly and wished my son a happy birthday. This is a very nice hotel they just need to do some deep cleaning on their rooms and shampoo the carpets and wipe things down a little better in the rooms and tell their front desk ladies to smile. While we were there they were doing some remodeling in the lobby.

"Great Place to Stay"
Karen P, 29 Novembre 2015

The rooms were very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. The hotel staff was accommodating. The breakfast was good, and the price was reasonable. We stayed during the Thanksgiving weekend and went to the Williamsburg Outlets.

"AVERAGE HOTEL...AVERAGE STAY"
Robert C, 28 Novembre 2015

Experience at this hotel had goods and bads and so I rate it average overall. Here's the pros and cons of our stay experience: Pros: 1. Close proximity to what you would like to do in Williamsburg. Colonial area is just a short trip down Richmond Road...outlet malls are a short drive the other direction on the same road...New Town area is a short drive down Monticello. Hotel is right off of Bypass Rd as soon as you turn onto it from Richmond Rd. 2. Wi Fi was great the whole time...a major plus for me. 3. Got a great night's sleep. Bed was very comfortable and there was little to no noise to disturb. Cons: 1. We and a handful of other guests got stuck in the elevator (a first for me). We had to push the emergency button and thankfully the doors finally opened). As we were departing, a guest who was already at the hotel was walking by and said it had happened before leaving me to wonder why there wasn't notification from the front desk to not take the elevator. We used the stairs the rest of the stay. 2. We had a nice HD TV but too bad there were no HD channels to watch. With no cable box, the channels were all analog and so they appear fuzzy on an HD TV. An upgrade is needed. 3. In our bathroom, there were what appeared to be numerous burn marks which appeared to be made by cigarettes on the vanity counter. Looks nasty and the hotel said they had a no smoking rule so either people are violating the rule or the counter needs replaced with something that looks better. So all and all...not bad but not great either.

"Showing its age"
Marc H, 28 Novembre 2015

This property is in an extremely convenient spot for visitors of the Historic Triangle. It is showing its age, though. They are doing some renovation work in the lobby which is a good sign. The breakfast options are very poor. It seems like the owners are really trying to cut corners there, and it shows.

"Best Western Williamsburg"
ireofel, 22 Novembre 2015

We love recommending Best Western motels. As a chain they are dependably an excellent value and have friendly, knowledgeable staff eagar to please. The Williamsburg Best Western is one of our return destinations each year. This year we were able to apply our Rewards points to the room, which made our free stay a bonus. The staff went out of thier way to not only remember, but make note of my birthday with a lovely card, gift bag, and a complementary bottle of wine from the local winery. The motel has always been clean, the rooms are very nice and the complimentary breakfast is extensive. Thanks Best Western, we look forward to staying with you again.

"Not the Best that Best western has to offer"
James L, 19 Novembre 2015

I would suggest trying one of the other hotels in the area as this Best Western simply doesn't rank as one of the better. Although they had construction going on and had signs posted they simply put us into a room right beside the construction. The hotel was almost empty and it's obvious why.

"Good Place to Stay"
Andrew C, 18 Novembre 2015

Hotel staff is very good. Rooms are well kept and clean. Amenities are good. The breakfast needs some improvement, not much selection, but what is there is good. This was my second stay at this hotel, and overall it was a good experience and I plan to use it again next year. A good place to stay and reasonably priced.

"Very good location, good price, average hotel"
piasan-11, 12 Novembre 2015

The hotel had a location that was great. It was close to everything in Williamsburg. There was a Kmart across the street and many restaurants that were very close. The price was reasonable. The hotel rooms needed updating(not just painting the old walls.) The rooms were clean enough but obviously had saw better days. There were a few signs for remodeling in place in the lobby. The rooms had the basic essentials. The staff left us with mixed feeling. Checking in was nice. I needed extra blankets and they were nice to get them. The next morning I took one of my kids to the breakfast in the lobby. The first employee (African American man) did not say good morning. Looked at me constantly in a strange way and was not happy I got coffee before he set up. So I went back up stairs and got my other kids (to give him 20-30 minutes to set up.) When I came back down another older(African American) employee was entering. He was polite to the staff but very rude to me and my kids. Why offer a breakfast if you are mad that guests are eating it? Overall, the stay was nice but was left with a bad taste in my mouth.

"Great staff, comfortable rooms, wonderful service."
VacationHounds32, 10 Novembre 2015

I recently stayed here while visiting Colonial Williamsburg. The location is great and the service was wonderful. The ladies at the front desk were so pleasant and friendly - glad we were staying there. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable. I had expressed a concern about the breakfast and the assistant manager wrote immediately to me explaining they are remodeling and the breakfast selection was temporarily limited. I was offered and apology and bonus points! WOW! How often does anyone ever respond to a concern? I will go back here if I'm in the area. Service is everything to me.

"The fun I had in Williamsburg"
Karen M, 09 Novembre 2015

I come to Williamsburg at least twice a year I will be staying at Best Western from now on as long as they have rooms available my friends and I.The room was everything you could want and the price was right.

"A definite choice for future stays"
Rainbo1949, 09 Novembre 2015

Excellant staff typical of Southern hospitality; make the guest feel warm and welcome; they were true to form. My husband developed a blood clot and could barely walk during the time of checkout. I requested a wheel chair but the hotel had none. but the staff jumped in to help right away. They assisted immediately and without asking they performed flawlessly. What a team!

"Best Value and Great Location"
Arthur C, 05 Novembre 2015

This BW locations continues to impress me with the quality of the accommodations, service of the staff and the reasonable rates. Its central location put you right in the heart of all the local attractions.

"Great stay"
FranWB, 04 Novembre 2015

Friends had recommended this hotel from their stay a few years ago. We were so glad we followed suite. The hotel was close or easy drive to everything we wanted to do in the entire Virginia Colonial Triangle and other places.. The staff were friendly and helpful. Great value. Planned on staying 2 nights but ended up 5. We will choose and recommend them again.

"personal"
Judith K, 03 Novembre 2015

what a marvelous place to stay! surrounded by many tourist attractions. we were right next to the historical city and we did visit this for a short while. ran out of time. will be back in december. amazing how many acres of space this city holds. there are many other places we want to see so on our next trip we will plan time and points of interest.

"Great stay!"
Wanda C, 01 Novembre 2015

We really enjoyed our stay this Best Western. It was in a great location, close to everything. This staff was friendly, the room was immaculate and very comfortable.The breakfast was ok. We never had a chance to use the indoor pool. The parking lot was huge and the grounds were well kept. I would defiantly stay there again.

"Vergy good hotel but in middle of nowhere"
Larry M, 31 Octobre 2015

Not in real centre of historical area but not necessarily a negative feature as allowed closer access to the cheaper eateries. Still not a lot one can do in evening. Good breakfast and indoor swimming pool a real bonus and practical size.

"Nice, reasonable hotel"
Karen S, 30 Octobre 2015

We met our son in Williamsburg for a family vacation, and to re-visit Busch Gardens. The hotel offered military rates, and a hot breakfast, so we were very pleased. Our stay was very pleasant and the hotel is convenient to all attractions.

"Nice place to stay"
Doris B, 29 Octobre 2015

There are many restaurants and shopping places close to this hotel. It is easy to find with or without GPS. The staff was very nice to us and the room was clean and comfortable. This was the second time that we stayed at this hotel.

"No Complaints Here ..."
Lisa M, 27 Octobre 2015

Our stay at the Best Western PLUS Historic Area Inn in Williamsburg was pleasant. It was convenient to everywhere we needed to go. The room was very nice and comfortable. The breakfast varied from day to day. Overall, we would return when in the area.

"Nice place to stay"
jeff_techentin, 26 Octobre 2015

Hotel is very clean and close to a lot of restaurants. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Price is good, and is close to Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens, Water country and shopping. Would definitely suggest this Hotel to anyone who wants a stay at a descent price close to amenities.

"Groupon clients beware!"
LarryB5115, 26 Octobre 2015

Check in: Oct. 2, 2015 Best Western Plus Historic Williamsburg, VA - Room 131 Purchased GROUPON on Sept. 28, 2015 @ $97.97 Immediately noticed the smell of stale cigarette smoke in the room. This is advertised as 100% Non-Smoking Best Western Plus. Went to the a/c unit and pulled the filters (see photo) which were grossly dirty. The unit had mold growing on it (see photo). The carpet was stained, dirty and discolored. Apparently it had not been cleaned (as in shampooed) ever! The drapery sheer was torn. There were holes in the wall that were unpatched but painted over (see photo) at the nightstand. The microwave/frig unit cabinet was old, and the particle board cabinet was delaminating. The surface could not be really clean because of the numerous voids in the particle board. There was a weak, single low-watt light bulb over the corner where this was kept but no service area or counter. The headboards showed skin oil spots where heads had rubbed. Metal door jambs on bathroom door were rusted up to 1” above the tile floor. The paint was bubbling around the door jamb. The internet rate for this room when we signed into the “free” wi-fi was $69. We paid $30 more on Groupon. I don't know if we got the terrible room BECAUSE it was a Groupon of if everyone gets this quality of room. We asked the night manager to come and inspect the room. She came quickly and acknowledged the room and moved us to Room 127 which had similar issues, however, the a/c unit was cleaner and the room smelled better. We still wiped the entire room down with sanitary wipes – cabinets, countertops, remote control, headboard, light fixtures, etc. The ground floor rooms where we were located are next to the washer & dryer room and arcade. There is no ice machine on the ground floor. I had to go to the main desk for directions to find ice which was located on the upper floors (2, 3, 4) The upper floors appeared to have been better treated and were nicer in general appearance. I telephoned the hotel the day before arrival and asked for a handicapped room to accommodate my 88-year old mother who is disabled and my 68-year old husband, who is also disabled. I was told that the (1) handicapped room was already taken for that night. Is it possible that a large facility ONLY has 1 handicapped ADA compliant room? I felt this BW was so below standard that I contacted Best Western HQ to report this incident. I phoned Groupon to let them know that their clients were NOT getting quality rooms and were being overcharged based on the Wi-Fi rate at check in. I sent photos to BW Complaint Dept. Having been a Best Western Gold Member for 25 years, I have stayed at many different facilities. This experience was the WORST I have encountered and I believe it is because the management reserves specific rooms for Groupon purchase and truck drivers. I am not the type to file formal complaints, but this BW was terrible and the management should be held accountable. If I had been a BW online customer, walked into this place and been offered the room, I would have cancelled and walked out. But, having spent nearly $100 on Groupon and no way of cancelling or getting my money back, I was stuck. This property is in no way a PLUS facility. The common internal carpets were dirty, worn and stained. The breakfast area was dark, dated furnishings, and cramped. The internet photos are clearly from a time-warp period of newly decorated or constructed rooms and in no way are a representation of the rooms offered to me.

"Awesome Hotel"
Tonya C, 26 Octobre 2015

This hotel and staff are amazing! They made our stay excellent and we will be returning. The food was wonderful and the rooms are great. I would recommend this hotel to any of my friends or family that would be coming to this area.

"Clean & Comfortable"
Laura R, 25 Octobre 2015

Since we were visiting many of the local attractions in the area, we were looking for a room that was both clean & comfortable and the Best Western Plus was spot on. The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The towels were big and soft and our room also had a refrigerator & microwave. The Best Western Plus was only a few minutes from Colonial Williamsburg, 8 miles from Busch Gardens & 18 miles from Yorktown. The complimentary coffee & hot chocolate 24/7 were nice after a long day & chilly night. The complimentary breakfast was good too. Our favorites were the bacon, eggs and yogurt. The tater tots & french toast sticks weren't as good as they tasted like the metal pans they were sitting in, but still no complaints. Remember it's a free breakfast. Our only regret was that our trip was a short one so we weren't able to play the miniature golf course right next door, go to Jamestown & do some shopping. We also did not have time to use the indoor pool or gym. We will be back in the spring to experience more of Williamsburg and to stay at the Best Western Plus again.

"Clean & Comfortable"
Larry L, 19 Octobre 2015

The staff is great and the rooms were clean. The breakfast was very good and there were so many people eating it was hard to find a seat. But is was worth it. There was such a buzz of excitement in the people getting ready for the day's activities. We are looking forward for our return with more family members.

"Pleasant Place to stay"
Siney3, 13 Octobre 2015

Love the location of this Best Western. It's across from Pirates Cove Putt Putt, which has two wonderful courses, and Dairy Queen as well. Convenient to Colonial Williamsburg, and just a few minutes from Busch Gardens. Nice indoor pool, and a well supplied breakfast bar has always been popular with our family.

"First Night of Vacation"
G4381VGkathym, 04 Octobre 2015

Because of a family party, we checked in late so we couldn't participate in all of the amenities offered. The hotel was clean, the staff was efficient, the breakfast was standard continental. There were several people eating breakfast on Sunday morning and the staff worked efficiently to keep the breakfast bar well-stocked.

"Nice staff"
Erica O, 29 Septembre 2015

The staff was very friendly and was even able to get us in a room early which was very helpful as we had traveled all night and were very tired. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The breakfast had a good variety of food that was hot and cold.

"Great stay at Best Western"
Curtis W, 26 Septembre 2015

Enjoyable, clean, comfortable stay. Complimentary continental breakfast, free wifi and friendly staff. We (my wife and I and when our kids were still at home) have always stayed at Best Western. We feel sure we will be safe and comfy. Thank you! The king size beds were the best! We had a great nights sleep.

"Short stay in Williamsburg, VA at Best Western"
Betty B, 25 Septembre 2015

Our visit to Williamsburg and Jamestown, VA was more comfortable with a stay at the Best Western Plus. The motel is not the most modern, BUT it had everything we needed to help make our nights stay welcoming and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, fresh linens (towels were still warm, in fact!), exercise room, indoor pool and a breakfast available. The facility is centrally located with easy access to Colonial Williamsburg or the shopping outlets and plenty of restaurants located near. AND I shouldn't forget the freshly baked chocolate chip cookies provided - Yum!

"Well Run Best Western"
EastcoastSisters, 23 Septembre 2015

This wasn't the fanciest Best Western my husband and I stayed in, but it most satisfactorily met our needs for a comfortable night's accomadation in the Williamsburg area. Room was clean and included a microwave and refrigerator which we did not use, but would be helpful if traveling for more than one night. It's name is a bit misleading because it is not within walking distance of the historic area. Breakfast had good variety and was well maintained. They do need to upgrade their bed pillows.
