Beautiful room, incredibly spacious

This was our second visit to the Griffin, and it did not disappoint. I have lived in apartments that were considerably smaller than this room. It was absolutely gorgeous and well-furnished. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. There were a couple of non-functioning outlets (we had to shift the fridge and coffee machine to get power) and the hvac unit motor came on somewhat loud, so it’s showing its age, but I’d be happy to stay here again.

Our stay in the Green Wing at the Griffin Hotel on April 26, 2025: - Convenient location in the heart of Colonial Williamsburg - Deluxe king room with sofa bed is quite large, though dated - Shower had not been cleaned. Used toiletries were still on the shelf in the shower. - Sofa cushions were stained - The outside door to the parking lot did not open properly. Required three attemptd and a hard shove to get it to open. FIRE HAZARD. We reported these issues to the front desk. They gave us a $25 credit toward the resort fee, which was inadequate. A follow up call to management yield on offer of $75 towards dining if we made a return visit. The condition of the room and the building is below expectations for a property in this price range.

This is not an actual hotel, it is more like an outbuilding for overflow from the Williamsburg Inn. That said it is clean, convenient, affordable, room has a wonderful balcony, beautiful landscaping, fountains ponds and everything you would like for a wonderful restful time in CW. It’s also extremely close to everything you want to get to like the Kings arms Tavern, etc. No there are no on-site amenities, no food or vending machines. But bottles of water can be delivered from the Inn and every request was met very promptly to our great satisfaction. Would stay there again.

It's the little things that count; both good & bad

We won't be staying at the Griffin but will come back to Colonial Williamsburg. This hotel was the price of a Marriot with the amenities of a Motel 6. It was mostly clean (the heat vents on the floor hadn't been cleaned in ages by the looks of them) and the beds were comfortable. However, we had to hunt to find blankets. They were in the dresser with a broken knob. The outlets were all on the floor which meant bending under things to charge up our phones. There was a hole in the bathroom ceiling I didn't get a picture of. The carpeting probably was from the 1970's - it wasn't anything big that was wrong but a lot of little things that added up. Since Williamsburg shuts down at 5 pm and dinner only takes so long, we ended up in the room a lot. The staff at the Williamsburg Inn, where you check in, were all amazing however. Everyone we talked to was helpful and attempted to get answers for us. Really, we will come back just never to the Griffin.
The outside area looked like it would be great on a warm day
The TV worked well
One of those "little" problems. The watermark on the ceiling was as big as the smoke detector.
This is almost a petty issue but was one of the "little" issues that we saw. If you sat at the desk with the light on, the light was right in your eyes. Also, why is the painting so low on the wall?

The setting back in the woods is very nice and peaceful. The room was nice, but a little bit tired. The room was very big, with two queens and a sofa bed - it would be a good place for a family. It could use better lighting both in the bathroom and the main room area. It always felt a little big dim in there. There was something sticky on the bathroom floor - seemed like it was something that needed to be scraped off and that hadn't been done. My biggest complaint is that there is no food or room service of any kind in the hotel. There isn't even a water bottle filling station. There is a vending machine for sodas and theoretically one for snacks, but the snack machine was completely empty. There isn't even an address for the hotel, so I couldn't figure out a way to order delivery.

Okay Stay but Wouldn’t Recommend

This hotel felt like the forgotten cast off of the nicer Inn next door. The room was outdated and rundown including a sink that wouldn’t drain and a broken towel rack. There wasn’t any complimentary water bottles and the vending machine was broken so you really need to bring your own refreshments and snacks. The room size was good and it’s certainly a convenient location to Colonial Williamsburg but I was underwhelmed.
