Frommer's Review

Across the street from the Williamsburg Inn, the foundation's second-best hotel recently underwent a massive renovation that restored most of it to its original 1930s appearance, albeit with modern conveniences. The original structures were gutted, and Colonial Williamsburg's state-of-the-art conference center was added. Only the existing Tazewell Wing, a 1970s-vintage structure whose rooms have balconies facing landscaped courtyards, escaped serious surgery. The other more luxurious rooms are in five Colonial-style "Guest Houses" linked to the main building by covered brick walkways. The new units are notable for their Colonial Williamsburg-designed furniture and their retro 1930s bathrooms. Guests here share all of the Williamsburg Inn's facilities, including the luxurious spa across the street. Large suites occupy the second floor of the main building, which houses a restaurant and comfy bar.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; 2 outdoor pools; 8 tennis courts; health club; spa; bike rentals; children's programs; game room; concierge; business center; room service; babysitting; laundry service; coin-op washers and dryers

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
