We spent two nights at the Fife & Drum. This is a small boutique hotel on the second floor of an early 20th century building. Unlike all of the other B & B type inns in Williamsburg, this one is located right in the historic area just a few paces from Colonial Williamsburg and only a short walk from several... More

We loved our weekend stay at the Fife and Drum Inn. The innkeepers were very welcoming and helpful. The room was very comfortable and well-appointed. The inn could not be more convenient and was within walking distance to everything we wanted to see in the historic district. We arrived on Amtrak from the northeast and only had to walk 2... More

Billy welcomed us with a tour of the Inn. We had reserved the Cedars Suite, it was very nice, the King Size bed was very comfortable, the Bathroom was very nice, up to date. There was a small tv in the room, which was fine. We had a little sitting area, that led out to the Balcony. The only negative... More

I was in Williamsburg on business and wanted a place proximate to the law school. The Fife & Drum was exactly what I wanted: convenient to all downtown locations, good accomodations and not a traditional motel by the highway. Great breakfast. Friendly host. Comfortable room.

This was in the perfect location, within walking distance of the historic Williamsburg locations, and reasonably near a bus stop of the shuttle. The rooms were comfortable, although the pillows seemed a bit tired. And perhaps there wasn't quite the cleaning done that we're accustomed to at the price level of this B&B. Breakfast was listed as only one hour... More

My wife and I stayed at the Fife & Drum Inn in Williamsburg for several nights while visiting Williamstown in May 2012. The location was excellent as it is within several hundred yards of the historic area. The accommodations were excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpfull with our questions about the area. We would definately recommend this B&B.

Fife & Drum Inn is the only Bed & Breakfast in downtown Williamsburg, easily accessible to everything by walking. The Inn also has nearby dedicated parking for guests, a huge plus! Innkeeper Billy Scruggs was immensely helpful in his directions to us for the "not-to-miss" attractions of Historic Williamsburg. Inn and rooms are accessed by a card-swipe. Lemonade, coffee and...

We received a gift certificate from our son for the Fife & Drum in Williamsburg. Having never been there before we didn't know what to expect. We were cheerfully greeted by "Billy" and he immediately went with us to our car and carried practically all of our luggage up to our room. My husband and I were quite impressed by... More

We visit good friends in Williamsburg every year and have stayed at various accommodations. Fife and Drum is the best! We love the proximity to restaurants and shops, the closeness of W&M for morning walks and being almost next door to our favorite coffee shop --Aromas. The rooms are immaculate and the bathrooms have all been updated. On our last... More
