It's so low-key. I didn't know there was a hotel here for so many years... You have to take the stairs to the second floor to reach your room. The bed in the room is not queen size, but full size which is slightly smaller than queen size... There are not enough sockets at the bedside. Coffee, yogurt, milk, eggs, etc. in the public area can be picked up 24 hours a day. All other services are still available. The location is very good, suitable for tourists without a car. It is walking distance from the College of William and Mary and Colonial Williamsburg, but overall combined with the price, I think it is not worth it.

This was our second stay here and it was just as good as we remembered. The whole place is spotless and well kept up. If you have ever stayed here it is difficult to find. When you turn on the street look to your left for the sign that is over the entrance door. The young woman working in the office was very helpful and friendly as well.

Wonderful accommodations – wonderful location – wonderful experience! We stayed in the cedars suite which was so perfect for our Williamsburg stay. We appreciated the access to coffee and tea and basic breakfast items along with snacks throughout our stay . Location was perfect for sightseeing and access to local restaurants and very quiet . I would stay here again and highly recommend it to others, considering Williamsburg .

Fantastic hosts, so kind and helpful. One of the only accommodation options in the historic heart of Williamsburg. Great room and lots of free items on offer throughout the day. Also they let me store bags and use the public areas until late afternoon which I really enjoyed. Simply perfect

This is our third time staying at the Fife and Drum. The location is conveniently located close to Colonial Williamsburg and William and Mary College. The rooms are comfortable and clean and a continental breakfast is offered. The staff (Jillian, Ashley and Billy) are super accomodating. We are looking forward to the next chance to stay at this inn.

This is a great place to stay when you visit Historic Williamsburg. Parking is paid for by the Inn. Everything is within walking distance, including restaurants, cafes, and shops. It is also an easy walk to the College of William and Mary, where you can stroll around the beautiful campus. Breakfast is continental, with enough choices to meet most people's needs and wants. Treats such as cookies, chips, bottled water, coffee, and tea are available night and day. We stayed for 3 nights, and all of our needs were met.

The room was cozy and very clean. It was in the perfect location for staying in Williamsburg. Walk out the door and you can walk to everything, restaurants, shops, William and Mary, and Colonial Williamsburg. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Just a few down sides: the bed was too hard, which is fine if you like a hard mattress. Parking is half a block away. There are many steps up to rooms. Overall it was a great stay with special touches, bottled water, cookies and snacks, coffee, and tea in the little cute dining area. The room was decorated beautifully. Again everything was clean!!!! We would stay there again!

As always, the fife and drum Inn was excellent. This is the go to place when one stays in Williamsburg . The door of the Inn is mere minutes from shopping and the actual heart of colonial Williamsburg. The rooms are always clean and innkeepers are fantastic.

This is our second time staying here, and each time it has been great. We love the atmosphere, service, and where the inn is located. The Inn is very clean, and the people are so friendly. Ashley and Melissa are so fun and do their jobs so well. Thank you for making our time there even better.
