Wedmore Place

Unfortunately, we booked this awful place for three nights over Memorial Day weekend or we would have left after the first night. The morning after our first night my husband found a used band aid stuck on the outside of the pillowcase on his pillow, after using it all night. Gross! There was no hand soap in the bathroom although there was a soap dish. Hair all over the bathroom floor and not ours. Second day we asked for room cleaning and came back around 6:00 pm after a long day of site seeing and the room hadn't been cleaned our threadbare towels were still on the floor. Went to the front desk again (first time was about the pillow) and the front desk lady said are you sure? Housekeeping has reported that your room was cleaned. She came up to bring clean towels and I exchanged the used towels with those and then she acknowledged that our room had not been cleaned. The building has no windows that open, so the entire place was musty and smelled. The room felt dirty, and the foot of our bed was higher than the head. The included breakfast was barely edible. The breakfast sausage was really dark and looked like it had sawdust in it. I tasted it and it was horrible. The eggs were over cooked, and I have no idea what they put in the quiche. It was just really nasty. Another guest was complaining about the food when we first when in to eat and I thought she must be exaggerating, but she wasn't. Cannot understand why there are so many good reviews of this place. This is the worst place we have ever stayed, and we have traveled plenty.

Quiet place outside of the historic area, next to the Williamsburg Winery. Let's just say it's quirky. It is an old building with lots of creaks, old / antique furnishings and some pretty dated bathroom fixtures. Beds are comfortable and when you book, you can select your room (they're all different.) The breakfast buffet is nice, wines are available from the winery throughout your stay. There is no food service other than breakfast and the winery next door has limited hours. There is a pool (though not ready for guests in May.) Plentiful parking. The staff is generally friendly and helpful. One other thing: check in by 10PM or there is no one at the desk.

We paid over $300 per night (plus taxes and fees) for what we expected to be a 1st class experience in Williamsburg. Our reservation included breakfast at this small inn which could have been wonderful had they put in any effort at all. Instead the breakfast fell short of what I would expect to be served at a budget hotel buffet., let alone a resort inn. It featured overcooked, dried-out cheese omelettes that appeared to be left over from the prior day(s), sausages that had been cooking since Monday (we were there on the weekend), and days-old quiche. An asian family sitting next to us spilled a drink as they were leaving. Rather than just clean up the mess quietly, the hostess and cleaning staff complained loudly about it a few feet from our table for all to hear. During our 1st night the temperature in our room was between 75-76 degrees, and adjusting the thermostat did nothing to change the temperature. The 2nd night after coming back from dinner the temperature in our room had climbed to 81 degrees (in December). Again, adjusting the thermostat did nothing. After my 2nd visit to the front desk we were offered to move to another room which we did. We had to pack our suitcases, laptop, toiletries, etc… and move ourselves to another room. When we checked out on Sunday morning, after suffering through the same overcooked cheese omelettes and sausages, we told the manager at the reception desk of the issue with our room. She said that she had heard about the issue and would let maintenance know of the issue, and apologized but said she was glad they had another room that we were able to move ourselves into. She offered us no accommodation on the full 1st class rate that we paid for a 3rd rate experience. My advice is to spend your money elsewhere.

We enjoyed a great three nights stay at this lovely hotel. Our 11 year old was excited about the pool, which led to a relaxing day just in the sun at the pool. We had a great room. Only for us picky Germans when it comes to breakfast, it was little difficult to find something to eat, esp. for our so . Nevertheless we very much enjoyed our stay. It was the perfect starting point to explore colonial Williamsburg.

Not a 4 star hotel. Room has mold on the ceilings and in tile in bathroom. Vents look like they haven’t been cleaned in 10 years or more. Staff was wonderful and did everything they could to make the stay great. Breakfast was similar to Hampton Inn except they serve you coffee. Hotel was VERY dated and many things need updated. Be aware if you are mobility challenged or not able to crawl into high tubs you might want to inquire what type of shower is in the room. Room 31 has a tub shower combo from the 70’s that is so high I had difficulties getting in and out of it (I’m 5 foot tall and 56 years old.) The bed was very uncomfortable and the pillows are the size of travel pillows. Would not choose to stay here again until it is totally revamped.
