Pleasant convenient location, lacking in information about local amenities.

The location was quiet and close to Colonial Williamsburg, and the reception staff were pleasant and welcoming. The AC in the room was good. The balcony was well furnished, with a good view of the lake. The swimming pool and fitness centre were clean and tidy, with plenty of towels etc., and helpful and welcoming staff. Plenty of parking close to the room. Easy checkout.

Great experience, not the most luxurious but with elegance. Best of all, the staff was very friendly and made me feel warm as a foreigner. Oh yeah, the breakfast was great too.

Will stay at the Griffin again the next time in Williamsburg!

I asked for a ground floor room and it came with an outdoor patio! Being on the ground floor made taking baggage to the room very easy.

A mysterious travel 200-300 years back in time. Awesome park, 100% historic details. While museums say "don't touch" this hotel literally allows you to lay down on stuff that feels 200 years old. Awesome staff, delicious food, walking distance from the Colonial downtown. Recommend!
