We really enjoyed Williamsburg and the Best Western made it a great stay. We stayed right after Christmas and the hotel was almost booked to capacity. That did not affect anything about our stay other than my internet service. When we got there I could not get it up and the gentlemen at the desk did something that made the... More

We (my two adults daughters and myself) stayed for 5 nights at this hotel while visiting Busch Gardens Christmas Town. The location was great . . . close to shopping, restaurants, colonial events and Busch Gardens. In other words it was a short drive anywhere we wanted to go. The king sized bed was very comortable. However, my daughter was... More

The service was excellent, efficient and friendly. We enjoyed the amenities like the indoor heated pool and spa pool. The location was excellent for our needs-- we were at both Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. It was also convenient to many excellent restaurants. The only complaint is the poor quality of the breakfast. The coffee was so bad by the... More

I was really impressed with the cleanliness and service of this hotel considering the reasonable price. The free breakfast was more than continental with french toast and eggs. The staff was very friendly and location was perfect. I will definitely stay there again. More

My wife and I spent four nights here--the price was very good with a great discount for booking three or more nights. The best thing about the motel is the location--it's convenient to both Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. The rooms were also very clean--just in need of a remodel. When we arrived at 11:10 pm (I had called to... More

Good, convenient hotel. Clean and really reasonable price. Close to Visitor's Center. Only room problem - water took a long time to get hot (4 to 5 minutes of full out running - really - no kidding). But, once it got hot it was very hot. Breakfast OK, not great - but who expects a free breakfast to be great?... More

This hotel is on the decline. Front desk staff do not appear to be professional. Room lacked hot water. Lighting is poor (nothing brighter than a 60W bulb and some of these were burned out). Bathroom floor had long hairs from a prior occupant. Breakfast lacked choices and was poorly presented. More
