The manager on the day we left was great, but when we checked in, they pull out couch was with dirty linens with food still on it and the gentleman from the front desk told us to not make a big deal out of it because it’s only food. Bathroom also was clogged and needed to be unclogged while we were there.

I recently stayed at Holiday Inn Express & Suites Williamsburg by IHG for three days getaway with my kids and my sisters and their kids. We booked a double room and were very pleased with its size and cleanliness. The bed was comfortable. The hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always greeting us with a smile. Specially Jalal in the front desk, he was super nice and super helpful.

My stay at the hotel was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by a staff member who was both helpful and attentive. Throughout our stay, every employee we encountered was courteous, professional, and genuinely friendly. This was my first visit to Williamsburg, and the experience exceeded all expectations. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so memorable. I stayed in Room 126 from July 17–19, 2025.
