The check in was inconvenient as you have to register at a different hotel down the road. The hotel has no luggage carts or elevator. The toilet did not work and the taps leaked. The wifi is inexistant at least in our room. The bed was sunken in the middle. Only the surroundings outside save it from disaster.

The Griffin Hotel has no amenities. You have to go to the Williamsburg Inn for any and everything ~ including a cup of coffee. The shower had ants crawling on the walls. There was hair piled up in a corner of the bathroom. There were only plastic and paper cups ~ no glassware. We waited at the Williamsburg Inn bar for 15 minutes for a bartender.

Beautiful setting in Colonial Williamsburg - if you are fairly mobile, this is great spot within the Colonial area so you can walkl everywhere. The spa gym building is separate but it is a pretty walk behind the sister hotel Williamsburg Inn where you check inn. The place itself was a good sized room and we slept 5 of us for this last minute stay and we normally get separate roomed suites, but this worked fine and was more budget friendly. The room itself was not super modernly updated, but it was fine, big, quiet, and peaceful. Great job!

I was looking for a quiet place with a balcony and a bath tub. I was taking a few days for myself, and this was exactly what I wanted. The room was quiet, the balcony overlooked the pond, it was a dreamy. The room was spotless, the bathroom was spotless. It was perfect for this mama who needed a few days of peace and quiet.

The property is old and outdated, with noticeable dust throughout. The bathroom sink was clogged. I was assigned a first-floor room, which was extremely noisy—it felt as though people were sitting directly on my balcony. The check-in process was inconvenient, requiring visits to multiple buildings before completion. The staff appeared insincerely friendly, and provided excessive, unnecessary information.
