Luckily we were assigned a second floor room in the main building with a balcony facing the river. The trolley stop is directly across the street. The old Yorktown restoration is up a large flight of stairs behind the property. Riverwalk is a within five minutes. Rooms have a fridge and microwave. We found the beds very comfortable, unlike comments... more

The only hotel on the beach in Yorktown and within walking distance to all the historical sites. The view was wonderful! The room was very clean and the staff super helpful. We'll definitely come back. We ate at the River Room restaurant onsite and highly recommend it. The whole experience was relaxing and fun. And we felt like we got... more

We had our out of town guests stay here for our wedding. Everyone was very accomodating and plesant. The rooms were very clean and the view was great. (overlooks the York River). We will be sure to stay here to celebrate our first anniversary. more

we spent an entire weekend scouring the area for good hotels to recommend for a wedding in the fall - this place is perfectly located, quaint and convenient. HOWEVER, the woman at the front desk was very rude, and informed us that checkin was 4pm (website says 1pm) and very unaccomodating even after we said we'd secure 10 rooms. We... more

This is a 1950's style motel sitting across the road from the river, just below the main Colonial town, and about a mile walk from the Yorktown battlefield. Good number of restaurants in walking distance. Rooms are clean and neat with new furniture and good air conditioning, but the ambience is spartan and run down. Tiny bathrooms. Linens are as... more

Reserved a room in April, 2007 for October 2007 30th High School Reunion -- confirmed -- flew in from Utah, arrived only to find we were confirmed on a "waiting list" ???? and no room. No apologies, no offers of assistance, rude, obnoxious -- don't believe them if they tell you you have a reservation. more

My husband and I enjoyed a great weekend in Yorktown while visiting for a wedding. The Duke of York is well situated facing the water with great views. It is within walking distance of several restaurants and stores as well as close to the historical portion of Yorktown. Beware of trying to check in before 4:00, we were met with... more

This was the worst hotel I have ever been to. My husband and I are both Active Duty military and we have stayed in a lot of hotels. First of all, I called the morning we were supposed to check in to ask them if it would be ok to check in early. (The check in time is 3:00 and... more

This is the WORST hotel on the planet. Not only is the service awful but they charge you multiple times for the same stay. They did this for about 20 people for our stay over Memorial Day weekend and have yet to refund the money two months later! AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COSTS!!! It is even worth driving to... more
