4/10 Fair

Nice but had mold

Nice place but there was serious mold on the ceiling in the bathroom. Room would have been nice other than that.
Alan, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Conveniently located

The hotel is conveniently located across the street to Colonial Williamsburg. The building looks like an apartment complex converted into an hotel. I did not see an elevator so we had to take our luggage through the stairs. I am glad it was only one floor. I looked and looked and did not see an elevator. Found that strange. Accommodations were fine just furniture looks very antique but odd chairs and other items that do not match. Room was very spacious and our balcony was very nice. Room was clean. We stayed for two nights and it was fine.

Beautiful Hotel in Quiet Setting

Hotel was very clean and the room was huge! The natural setting made for a very relaxing stay. Staff were eager to help. Please be aware there is no front desk! Check in takes place at the Williamsburg Inn down the street, which was NOT communicated up front.

Proximity to Colonial Williamsburg, friendly staff, quiet setting. Rooms are old but roomy. Furniture in disrepair, told we'd receive call when room was ready...did not happen, only sm plastic/paper cups in room.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice room but more than a few little things wrong

The room itself was fine. It was the incidentals that were a problem. The coffee maker was terrible, making lukewarm terrible coffee. The hairdryer was old but worse was the electric didn’t work. Call to get assistance because we were trying to get out the door, but it took a while. Housekeeping was only requested one day and they did the bare minimum of bed and towels and may be cleaned a sink. The rug be the vacuuming. The other thing was that the air conditioner had a musty smell. All of these are just little things, but it is not a cheap hotel and I think they should be fixed. We also used the spa it was OK, but I think the problem is really what we picked to have done. Stick with the Massage . we also went to the bar to have drinks and snacks at the outdoor bar. That was a wonderful experience and would highly recommend the amenities and surroundings are beautiful. If it wasn’t for the few things that could be easily fixed the rating would be much higher.
Gail, 3-night trip

Disappointing room

Our room was in poor condition. Uncomfortable bed marks all over the walls, loud air conditioner, and generally unkept. Not at all what I was expecting from the photos. Quite disappointed.

Service Defines the Experience

I was blown away! I booked the hotel because of the convenience, which was very understated. You are right in Colonial Williamsburg. My room was absolutely enormous with a fireplace, outstanding air conditioning, and two showers. I will be staying here again. The room and convenience were not the best part. The service was truly remarkable. It was what I get at a Conrad, Ritz Carlton, or fine hotel in Paris. Dan, Tim, and the concierge were indescribable! They made me feel like I was the only guest with their tailored service. We were offered water, got special rates on tickets from the concierge, coupons for dining and shopping and a map with suggested places to go. I also recommend lunch at the Golden Horseshoe Gold Club behind the Inn for lunch. Tip: When you check in, it’s not at the Griffin, it’s at the Williamsburg Inn.

Beautiful room, incredibly spacious

This was our second visit to the Griffin, and it did not disappoint. I have lived in apartments that were considerably smaller than this room. It was absolutely gorgeous and well-furnished. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. There were a couple of non-functioning outlets (we had to shift the fridge and coffee machine to get power) and the hvac unit motor came on somewhat loud, so it’s showing its age, but I’d be happy to stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

This is not an actual hotel, it is more like an outbuilding for overflow from the Williamsburg Inn. That said it is clean, convenient, affordable, room has a wonderful balcony, beautiful landscaping, fountains ponds and everything you would like for a wonderful restful time in CW. It’s also extremely close to everything you want to get to like the Kings arms Tavern, etc. No there are no on-site amenities, no food or vending machines. But bottles of water can be delivered from the Inn and every request was met very promptly to our great satisfaction. Would stay there again.
