Williamsburg Woodlands Hotel & Suites, an official Colonial Williamsburg Hotel

First time visiting and just loved this hotel!! Very clean, affordable for families, and a wonderful continental breakfast! Staff was very helpful and friendly. There is a small restaurant open next to the lodge with arcade games and open Sunday night when most things are closed. Gas and outside stores are close in proximity. December was a awesome month to visit. On select mornings, Santa was in the lobby greeting children and adults alike. There is a walkway to the shuttle over to the Williamsburg village. Within walking distance is the Williamsburg welcome center, to get tickets, shop for souvenirs or use the bathroom before getting on the shuttle. Just loved the Woodlands lodge ❤️

My husband and I had a good and memorable stay at the Woodlands. Since we were there at the beginning of the season we didn't use any of the resort facilities, but still enjoyed the hotel and the staff. The hotel and our room were perfectly clean, and smelled nice. Although the building is a bit dated and could use a little face-lift, it is a beautiful place with many spots to gather with family or sit and read by yourself. The breakfast was a disappointment with the same pre-frozen items each day, so I took a point off for that. But this could be because it just reopened for the season and things were not running regularly yet. No matter, the rest of the hotel made up for it. The location is right next to the Visitor's Center, which is such a nice convenience. You do not need a car to visit Colonial Williamsburg--just take the shuttle, or walk. We look forward to visiting again.

This hotel impressed me in multiple ways! The staff are extremely helpful. I had an allergic reaction to the sheets. They wash their sheets off site. They were extremely concerned and accommodating! They washed my sheets in their washers on site separately with different detergent! They even asked me the next morning if it helped! And it did. They offer complimentary umbrellas and had them ready for customers when it was raining. They stopped and offered me one as I walked out the hotel! The beds could use an update but they also offer complementary mattress toppers! WiFi is top notch as well! The grounds are beautiful and well kept. Very close to the shuttle as well! Loved my trip!

We found the facility was convenient to visitors center and bus service to historic area. Though the facility is tucked in the trees, it does offer additional shading for your vehicle during the hot humid days. Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Continental breakfast was Ok, but we preferred eating at the local restaurants. Our visit happened at a slow time for the property, so we didn’t see a lot of families on site. We will be back to enjoy more this property has to offer.

We had a wonderful stay in Williamsburg! We loved the Woodlands Hotel and Suites. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is nice and clean. Comfortable beds, hot showers and great water pressure. This hotel has a perfect location. Just a short walk to Colonial Williamsburg(you are also right by the shuttle station if you’d rather shuttle) and a short drive to anything else in town. This was a great Christmas experience for our family!

We stayed for the weekend for the Grand Illumination and had a nice stay. Staff were friendly at the desk and full of good info. Our room was nicely appointed. We were in a king suite and I loved that the bedroom had an actual door so that if we happened to bring the kids next time we could close it and still be up and doing whatever without disturbing them. The breakfast was a bit disappointing. All standards of a continental breakfast but I wish there had been at least some scrambled eggs or something since it says it is "enhanced". Also, I would have appreciated if there had been things like raisins, brown sugar, cinnamon, nuts, cheese, etc for the oatmeal/grits. The coffee was like hot lava and was a bit acidic but lots of other people were enjoying it. Overall we enjoyed ourselves and the location in regards to being able to walk over the footbridge to Colonial Williamsburg could not be beat. Would return

Our stay here had both positives and drawbacks, but overall, it didn’t quite meet expectations. We called ahead to confirm our reservation but still needed to check in at the desk which meant waiting in line for about 20 minutes while the only staff member on duty assisted another guest. While they were friendly and attentive to that guest, it created a slow check-in process for us and others in line. Parking was free, but the lot was crowded, which meant carrying our luggage across the parking lot, up a flight of stairs, and down a long hallway to reach our room. Once inside, the room was clean, but the decor and furniture felt outdated. The AC unit was a wall-mounted system combining heat, fan, and air conditioning. It managed to cool the bedroom but didn’t circulate well to the rest of the unit, leaving the space feeling musty and humid—even in December. The bed wasn’t particularly comfortable, with springy support and small pillows, making for a less restful night’s sleep. One notable issue was the lack of accessible water. The hotel advertised vending machines, but we found all of them unplugged and empty across multiple floors. The lobby fridge offered bottled water, but at $6 per bottle, it felt overpriced. A passing staff member mentioned the vending machines were empty because “we’re closing,” but this wasn’t communicated at booking or during our stay. For the price—about double that of nearby options—it seems the primary draw is the proximity to Colonial Williamsburg. While the location is excellent, other aspects of the experience fell short of expectations. Future guests may find the location convenient, but the value proposition could be better.

We truly enjoyed our stay. Our suite was spacious; so nice to have a separate living area. Everything was clean. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast provided a decent number of options.||What really impressed was the staff. Everyone from the front desk to the breakfast room to housekeeping was friendly and helpful. ||Special nod to the front desk. I had a medical emergency, and they called for an ambulance and then checked on me later to ensure I was okay. I was very touched by their quick action, concern, and kindness. Thank you!
