Courtyard hotel with two restaurants near Colonial Williamsburg
The Williamsburg Hospitality House is across the street from the College of William and Mary. The colonial-inspired hotel attracts families visiting the school. Classic brick architecture blends in with Colonial Williamsburg. The rooms look textbook American, thanks to striped wallpaper, drapes with valances and rich wood furniture. Two intimate restaurants, including a garden bistro, add to the charm.

Highlights
  • Intimate hotel across from the College of William and Mary and two blocks from Colonial Williamsburg
  • Two restaurants
  • Free underground parking
  • Outdoor pool and fitness center
  • Meeting space for up to 400

Rooms
The 295 rooms echo Colonial Williamsburg style with periwinkle-toned floral bedding, striped wallpaper and elegant wood furniture. Windows look out to a brick courtyard landscaped with flowering trees, tables and a shaded garden. Standard amenities include color TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi and high-speed Internet access for a fee.

Dining

There are two on-site restaurants at Williamsburg Hospitality House, 415 Grill and Papillon. Both of the restaurants achieve intimacy in an upscale casual setting. Diners enjoy the club ambiance at 415 Grill. The restaurant serves American classics such as crab cakes with the signature corn tartar sauce. Papillon is a brick-covered beauty illuminated by Parisian-like globe street lamps. The restaurant dishes up a seasonal breakfast buffet and bistro favorites in the garden.

Best place to stay in Williamsburg!

I loved staying here. The staff was more than wonderful. The rooms were nice and clean and very comfortable. I visited my daughter at William & Mary and the location is so convenient. Parking is underground with an elevator right to my floor. I'll definitely be back. Best place to stay in Williamsburg!!!

Best Location

Outstanding staff, outstanding location, reasonably good exercise room, and abysmal energy efficiency. The reason to stay here is location. It's literally across the street from the college and a two-minute walk to Colonial Williamsburg. However, the hot water was scalding hot, the air conditioner filter was very dirty, and the room window didn't open. Also, the lights are almost all incandescent and the room had a musty odor. A modest amount of attention to energy efficiency (like cleaning the air filters) would go a long way to making this a very nice place to stay.

If you're visiting with a prospective W&M student and want to sample the closest off-campus eateries you could not be in a better location. Walk out the front door and cross the street to the left. You're there.

Hospitality House Horror

The hotel room, though antiquated was satisfactory in presentation, but sorely lacked comfort. As for the cleanliness of the room, at first glance it was acceptable but a disturbing event changed my perception of that. The first night I arrived, I noticed a wine bottle outside of a particular room, which was fine since it had most likely been placed outside the room that night to be removed. Walking to the elevators the next morning, I noticed in passing a room service tray had joined the wine bottle. Still not a problem since it was now morning and would be removed later.. The concern came 2 days later when the full tray, with full glasses of orange juice, syrup, plates and a carafe of coffee etc had yet to be removed. I let the front desk know about its lack of removal, and figured it would be taken care of. That was a bit optimistic on my part, since when I left 2 days later the tray was still in the hall...full glasses of orange juice and all… upon check out I once again notified the front desk, to which the gentleman on duty seemed horrified that it hadn't been taken care of as was I.

Great Location, Perfect for Football

The purpose of my trip was to pick up my daughter who is attending school at W&M. The Hospitality House is virutally across the street from my daughter's dorm and the W&M Zable football stadium. The rooms at Hospitality House are adequate. Simple, but, in good taste. I would love to have the beds updated, but, that's minor as compared to the location!!

close to college of william and mary

the location is great if you want to visit the college of william and mary, and it's also in walking distance to all the historic places in town. so you can keep your car in the free parking slot. the staff was very helpful. there was some trouble with the internet access: it didn't work at all for one day. it was said that there would be an extra charge by AT&T, but then it turned out to be free of charge during my stay; don't know what happened in between. ask for a room going to the inward yard; it's much quieter. I would definitely pick this hotel for my next stay again.

Great location, good price.

the location of the hotel was great. Close to Colonial Williamsburg and close to Jamestown, Yorktown, Water Park, and Busch Gardens also. Lots of restaurants within 5 miles. Friendly staff. Busy hotel on weekends. Lots of weddings and parties. Guests were noisy well after midnight (3-4 am) Security didnt do much to help the problem.

Great hotel with a terrific location!

The hotel staff was extremely friendly and accomodating! You can't beat the location of this establishment. Everything is within walking distance to the hotel. No need to drive. Just walk and enjoy Williamsburg then retreat to a very clean, spacious room with comfortable beds.
