We had a very nice stay in a Williamsburg Colonial House. We rented the bottom floor of a huse built in the 1700's. My wife and I stayed in the master bedroom with queen canopy bed and period style furniture. My daughter stayed in the sitting room on a fold out couch. On this trip there was nobody that rented... more

We stayed in the Chiswell-Bucktrout house just behind the Kings Head Tavern for two nights at the beginning of Memorial Day weekend. The building is wonderfully historic, as is the furniture although there are all the mod cons - A/C, TV etc. The location is extremely convenient, being just steps away from the Duke of Gloucester Street and the Capitol,... more

The furthest thing from the Holiday Inn, the colonial homes provide you with a romantic but true view of how it might have been to live in the 18th century but with the modern upgrades today's traveler expects. Located right in Colonial Williamsburg, you can walk out the front door of the home or tavern in which you're staying and... more

We visited Colonial Williamsburg and stayed in the Orrell House for 3 nights. To get the most experience out of your stay here, the Colonial Houses are the best option. You can park right outside of your house, which was nice. You check in at the registration building in front of the Williamsburg Inn, then you follow the concierge in... more

My husband and I spent four days recently in the Lightfoot Tenement, a Williamsburg, Virginia, colonial rental home. A perfect place for a couple, it is located behind the Magazine and just steps away from a CW bus stop. The house consists of a living room, a bedroom with a canopy bed, a small kitchenette, a dressing area and a... more

The staff was more than friendly to us through the duration of our stay. It didn't seem to matter to them that we were a couple of college kids on spring break - they treated us like we were the only customers they had. We had a room in the Brick House Tavern and had a door that led right... more

I surprised my husband with a New Year's Eve stay at the Colonial Houses of Williamsburg. We stayed in room 3046 in the Market Square Tavern right on Duke of Gloucester St. in the middle of everything! Check-in was efficient and gracious at the off-site registration desk. We asked to be called on our cell phone when the room was... more

This past weekend, my husband and I stayed at one of the houses in the Colonial Houses hotel rooms in Williamsburg, VA. Everything about the experience was wonderful.... from check-in through check-out. Our room had a fireplace that was lit for us at our request. How romantic! Check out the choices online or call the 800 # they give you... more

The Colonial Houses are great. First, they are clean. The staff are very friendly. They are really convenient if you are staying several days. They are great for going back to your room for a midday break, unload packages or getting going first thing in the morning. I highly recommend them. The concierge service is great too. We needed to... more

An incredible lodging experience in this , one of Colonial Williamsburg's 88 Original Buildings. This Inn was built by my 4th Great Uncle in the 1760's. This was our first opportunity to stay here, and we flew from Texas to do so. Yes, that makes me predjudiced, but i will try to contain my euphoria for the truth about the... more
