Scene
A lovely hotel with bright and cozy lobby for sightseeing families and some couples
This hotel features a modern and vibrant lobby that’s typical of the Hilton Garden Inn chain. Laminate wood floors alternate between crimson-patterned carpet. High ceilings, banks of windows, and furniture upholstered in bright, cheerful hues make it a pleasant and inviting place. There’s plenty of space in the dining area, but it still gets congested at breakfast time when the hotel is full, particularly when groups are staying here. The hotel mostly draws families here for sightseeing, and some couples, too.
Location
Surrounded by restaurants, an eight-minute drive from Colonial Williamsburg
The Hilton Garden Inn is located on Richmond Road, which runs south to downtown Williamsburg. It's too far to walk into town, but it's only a quick car ride away. The property is situated in a relatively quiet spot that’s set back off the road a bit, but there's a solid crop of restaurants that can be reached in a 15-minute walk or less. - Four-minute walk to the Ripley’s Believe It or Not museum
Rooms
Comfortable with traditional decor, plus coffeemakers, microwaves, and mini-fridges
These comfortable guest rooms have a warm glow, thanks to the rust and gold color palette that’s used in the diamond-pattern carpet, striped drapes, and upholstered armchairs. The walls are a soft gold, and traditional, reddish-brown wood furniture complements the overall look. Decor is rather subdued yet tasteful, and photos of flowers on walls add splashes of brighter colors. All units have Keurig coffeemakers, microwaves, mini-fridges, and 32-inch flat-screen TVs. Basic Wi-Fi is free, and premium-speed upgrades are available for a fee. Standard rooms offer plenty of space, as Kings and Double Queen have enough room for armchairs, small oval tables, and sizable desks with office chairs. Suites are available with separate seating areas that have sleeper sofas and additional flat-screen TVs. Bathrooms are done in a similar style, and have wide vanities and simple white tiling around the shower/tub combos. They come equipped with hairdryers and Neutrogena products. Units are generally quiet, but the views are nothing notable.
Features
Indoor pool, on-site dining, and a 24-hour gym; fee for breakfast and high-speed Wi-Fi
This hotel offers an attractive lineup of features. There's a hot breakfast buffet for a reasonable price that includes made-to-order omelets. The Garden Grill & Bar also is open each afternoon for bar service and a light-bites menu that includes flatbreads, burgers, salads, and appetizers, but there's no dinner offered. However, evening room service is available from the nearby Seafare restaurant, which has steaks and seafood. Travelers looking to save a bit on dining can purchase frozen entrees from the 24-hour Pavilion Pantry and microwave them in their rooms. The Pantry also sells sundries, snacks, soft drinks, beer, and Virginia wine. Each afternoon, there are free cookies, coffee, and tea in the lobby, and free USA Today newspapers are available on weekdays. The indoor pool is small, but it has an adjacent whirlpool and it’s housed in a bright and pleasant space with lots of windows and skylights. It's open 24 hours, as is the gym, but it's also small. It does offer a few free weights and a few pieces of Precor cardio and weight-training machines. The hotel’s meeting space can host up to 125 people, and the 24-hour business center has two computers and a printer.
