Popular Williamsburg 4-star Hotels

This is probably our 5 or 6th stay here and have never had a bad unit yet. We usually get a two bedroom upstairs unit and this time we got a one bedroom unit. The only downside to the one bedroom is there was not balcony, which in the past with the two bedroom upstairs unit we'd have a nice balcony to sit on for our morning coffee or evening beverage. Even so, the Powhatan does not disappoint. I love having the pools, one side for adults and one side for those under age 18. Having no young children these days I do appreciate the quieter side and its nice to hear the kiddies having fun on the other side. We arrived after 8pm so there was no sales pressure. So my tip is: if you don't want the sales pitch just come in a little later and you'll miss that and the lines to check in. Although I have to say in the past when we've checked in early it was never a problem. Check-in has always been pretty fast and when I said I wasn't interested in the presentation they were respectful. I love this resort and we'll be staying here again.

We spent 2 nights in the Lewis colonial house, which turned out to be perfect for our family of 3 adults and 3 children: it gave us privacy and insulated neighbors from our noise at a very reasonable price. The small kitchen area has a microwave and small refrigerator but no dishes; the housekeeper kindly left us dish soap and a sponge but it would be useful to have the house stocked with those and a few dishes. The location of the house was excellent, very convenient to everything. There was plenty to do and we'd like to come back. I'd like to hear more about the experience of enslaved people and free people of color in the early republic: more tours, performances, and also demonstrations of how and where they and other serving people worked. Where did they sleep? What did they eat and wear? What were living conditions like? More interactive and hands on experiences for children would also be useful. And throughout the dialogue needs to be captioned if not translated to be more audible/accessible and for non-native English speakers.

The location is excellent for visiting either William & Mary or Colonial Williamsburg. The staff were amazingly helpful, especially the bellmen. They provide a free shuttle within a mile of the lodge, from 7am to 7pm. The rooms are located in many buildings and some are a good long walk from the lobby. Although my room was spacious and the housekeeping staff were wonderful and detailed (so the room was very clean), there were a few issues that made me give 4 vs 5 stars. The bed was a bit too soft for my taste, my room was next to an ice machine and elevators and outer door, so noise from one or more of these was frequent (so thankful I packed earplugs). My room door did not always close all the way, which the housekeeping staff kindly alerted me to. The bar was so crowded in the evening we had to get drinks at the bar and go to the lobby to chat with colleagues. Mini fridge in the room. Overall, I would stay here again due to the shuttle (though I wish it went up to 3 or 5 miles). I had an injury that made getting around difficult; while the shuttle was a lifesaver in this regard, the long walk to the room was unfortunate. No question this is a nice facility with exceptional staff, but minor issues that one would not expect at this price point.

Everything was well-appointed, and the units were clean and fully stocked with every necessary appliance. Check-in was easy although the saleswoman was very pushy and demanding when picking up wristbands.

I traveled during the last week of March with my 7 year old twins over their Spring Break. We stayed 3 nights in a KidCabin suite on the lower/water park level (Room 1050). I almost did not go given the recent reviews on this site, but we did and I’m glad we gave the place a chance because it exceeded my expectations in almost every area. Check-in: we arrived early at 1PM and tried to check in. There was a line, so a lot of families had the same idea. Each family got very personalized attention so the line went a little slow, but I appreciated the ability to talk about our preferences when we got to the head of the line. I explained my primary concern that the room be “recently Renovated” and clean. I was asked if we wanted a carpeted or non-carpeted room and after reading so many negative reviews about dirty carpet, I chose non-carpeted. I was told with that change that our room was not ready for us and that we’d receive a text with our room number when it was. No issue – we dropped our luggage back in the car and proceeded to the water park where we spent the next almost 3 hours. We then received our text around 3:45 and went straight to our room (we received wrist bands at check in). Check in gets 4.5 stars. The room: The room was relatively clean. The only issue was some Lucky Charms in one of the bunk beds between the mattress and the box frame and a lot of dirt in the trunk/coffee table which we didn’t use anyway. The condition of the room was very good – it all appeared newish with little or no wear. We were on the pool/arcade level which was convenient going back and forth. Our rear sliding glass door faced the parking lot which was convenient too because we were able to basically park outside our back door. I concur that the primary bed was not very comfortable but for me it didn’t disturb my sleep. Considering this was not the 4 Seasons, the room gets 4 stars. Service: For the most part service was outstanding. With a few exceptions, the staff were friendly, helpful, patient, and responsive. The wait staff in the buffet were awesome (the meat carvers much less so), the front desk was great and the people manning the MagiQuest counter were incredible. Only issues we had was the pool bar shutting down 30 minutes prior to their advertised time. The very disrespectful gent at the counter told me to use the bar upstairs (which requires shoes and shirt for service) because he was closed. I shot a *** note on their Williow app and got an unsatisfactory response that began with “Howl,…”. Room service doesn’t exist but anytime we asked for something using the Willow App (towels, coffee, etc) it was brought right away. For 3 nights we didn’t really miss daily room service. For service I’m giving a 4.5 which could easily have been a 5. Cabana: We used on of these on our 2nd day. Wasn’t worth it for us. One of the water bottles in our fridge was opened already, it was super noisy by the flow rider, the safe locking mechanism wasn’t functional

The room was super clean. Convenient location. The manor has a pleasant view. Will stay

Hotel location is good, the environment is beautiful. It is located in the historical and cultural reserve of Williamsburg, very close to William and Mary College and less than 10 minutes by car. The room is large and the view from the window is picturesque. Thumbs up!

Only complaints would be no microwave in the room and no breakfast what so ever. The place is nice. Staff is friendly. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Bathroom is small but clean and shower is good, nice water pressure and plenty of hot water.
