Hilton Vacation Club The Historic Powhatan Williamsburg

"This resort is on the grounds of what was once a colonial plantation. The manor house and gardens are still there. The units are spacious and comfortable, with everything needed to relax or cool a meal. The outdoor pool complex is gorgeous and relaxing."
Williamsburg Woodlands Hotel & Suites, an official Colonial Williamsburg Hotel

"Easy to get lost because elevators are down hall and around corner from lobby. Turn wrong way getting off elevator and you are going farther away from lobby instead of toward it Breakfast was fantastic with different hot entrees like cheese or western mini omelettes with turkey or pork sausage. Staff was friendly and helpful. Very clean and maintained historic property. So convenient to Visitor Center and shuttle bus to Colonial Williamsburg grounds. Also quick drive into town for evening entertainment and restaurants. Definitely the best place to stay."
"It was very clean. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast in the morning was a very nice variety. I really like that for people who stay more than one day, they would switch up the eggs they served, along with changing up the meat...It made it nice not to serve the exact same thing every morning!!!... the inside pool was kept very clean.
I also loved that they have hot coffee way into the evening!!!
I would say book it, with absolutely no doubt!!!"
"We picked the wrong hotel next to the airport-and I am so glad we did! Very accommodating, room was exceptionally nice and clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Will stay here again!"
"I am so anxious to leave a review about this property! We stayed once before and enjoyed the stay but I remember thinking it would be even nicer if they were to remodel. Well, guess what? They did and our stay was awesome. I have Zero complaints or criticism. From the time we walked in and saw the newly remodeled suite it was love ❤ at first sight. Everything you would want in a hotel suite, they left nothing out. And we had a ground floor suite. The kitchen had all stainless appliances and a pantry! Bathrooms were great, especially the walk-in shower with wand attached. They even had a charging pad for my phone on either side of the bed. Will definitely be back, Lord willing."
"Beautiful old mansion restored into a hotel. It’s quirky in a good way. We loved the views from the room. It was raining a lot so we couldn’t enjoy the outdoor space as much as we liked. More effort could be put into the landscaping and a covered outdoor space would be a nice addition.
Our room was clean however sheets were polyester rather than quality fine grade cotton which was disappointing and didn’t make for a nice experience. Shower also needed an overhaul. Grout/ silicone needs to be replaced and throughly cleaned. Better fixtures were expected.
Our main complaint was the very strange dining menu, which is not available online. There is no ‘theme’ and nothing honestly sounded amazing enough to tempt us to eat there. Breakfast is also table service (included in the booking) but it’s only from 8am - 9:30am, making it impossible to get an early start. Coffee is only available from 7am onward as well.
Overall a strange experience- don’t think we would return unless some things changed."
