I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were beautifully appointed with a cozy fireplace, a luxurious bathroom featuring a large soaking tub and separate shower, and fresh flowers changed twice during my 6-night stay. The only downside was the slight inconvenience of accessing the rooms on the second floor due to the elevator limitations, but it was just a short walk up one flight of stairs.

The hotel's rooms are extremely spacious, gorgeously appointed, and each unique, boasting a huge bathtub and walk-in shower. However, the faux dark wood tables in the rooms don't fit the hotel's overall style. The staff is exceptionally friendly and accommodating, but the reception staff may come off as a bit reserved. The location is ideal for exploring Colonial Williamsburg and nearby attractions, set in a charming colonial setting that's perfect for a springtime visit. The dining options at the hotel's restaurants are pricey, but the quality makes it worth the cost. The facilities are top-notch, offering a luxurious experience.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right on the grounds of Colonial Williamsburg, and the interior is just as charming. The staff anticipated our every need and graciously attended to us throughout our stay. However, although dining at their expensive restaurants was a treat with traditional dishes that blew our minds, it was a bit pricey. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

Our room was beautifully decorated with floral arrangements, giving it a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The only downside was that it required going up one flight of stairs from the second floor as the elevator only goes to the second floor, but the view overlooking the golf course was worth it!
