This location was the perfect blend of solitude and close proximity to Colonial Williamsburg. Quiet evening walks and enjoying the streets in the day with all of the activities made it one of our favorite trips in a while. The room was also very spacious. Everyone from Check in to concierge and al of the people in the buildings were extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back here soon.

Beautiful surroundings, large spacious room, lovely view of the pound. We were contacted by Caitlin a week possibly 2 weeks before our arrival. She contacted us several times offering opportunities for upgrades and services. We greatly appreciated all of the help we received, we felt well taken care of. This will be our hotel on our next visit.

"A lovely stay at the Griffin Hotel"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 06, 2024
The Griffin Hotel is quiet and peaceful. The rooms are huge, clean and well-kept, with a comfortable sofa and a table and chairs to eat at. The hotel is a short walk from the Colonial Williamsburg main street, and there is a tram that can take you to other areas if you don't want to walk. Booking there includes tickets to all buildings and the Museum, which is a must-see. The hotel is old and in need of updating, but it's understandable if Colonial Williamsburg can't allocate funds to do so. Still, it is comfortable and pleasant and convenient to everything. If you have to have spas and pools, stay elsewhere.
