Thee Griffin did not disappoint. Right in the middle of Colonial Williamsburg, the Griffin is close to everything that IS the Williamsburg experience. Although the property has some years on it, it has been maintained well and everything was clean and neat. We will definitely come back!

The overall property is really beautiful. However, The Griffin Hotel needs some major renovations particularly in the bathrooms as the paint is peeling from the ceiling and it is quite outdated.

Big, nice room with a pretty view. Nice helpful cleaning staff. One sink, stopper did not work. Tub stopper replaced with one requiring guest to lean down and open with finger. Mismatched uncomfortable furniture. Place in need of interior update - improvement.

We booked this room on the day of check-in. We booked a double queen with pond view. A couple hours later we received a call that only a king room with a pull out couch was available and we would receive a $25 breakfast credit for one day. The king room had a tennis court view not water. The hotel location is very convenient to Colonial Williamsburg. Check-in is at a different hotel. The actual room was very large but had peeling paint in the bath room on the walls & ceiling. The room had a weird smell to it so we kept the slider open while in the room. I think it’s time to refresh the rooms furnishings and decor.
