Very friendly & knowledgeable innkeeper. Immaculate.

I have stayed at this property several times, and I will continue to stay here whenever I am in Williamsburg. The rooms are neat, clean, and comfortable. The rooftop patio area is divine. You can't beat the location for walkability to the historic area and Market Square shops. The continental breakfast is ample, but if you want a full breakfast there is a divine coffee shop next door. My only suggestion is that the TV sets should be replaced with ones that have larger screens, but who comes to Williamsburg to watch tv?

I expected much more for the price, almost $400 for 3 adults it was shabby, tired, and there was no real breakfast. It was not dirty but impossible/inadequate for 3 adults. Uncomfortable. Inn keeper was kind.

Fantastic B&B. The owners run it on daily basis and don’t miss a sign to detail. Friendly, knowledgeable and well managed!

The photo of the property on their website is misleading, it shows a corner building which leads you to think the entire building is the Inn. After finally locating the Inn which is only identifiable via a small flag, you are faced with a steep staircase (17) steps to enter the Inn which is on the second floor of the building. We were an older couple and had to carry our luggage up and down the steep staircase (not mentioned in the website). What would a handicapped person do? False advertising at its worse.Also, housekeeping service was only available if you requested it,fortunately we had otherwise we would have to make our own bed and replace towels on our own.What a ripoff.Also the room and tv were miniscule, the tv was about a 10 inch screen, shall I go on?

Essentially a nice B&B on second floor above businesses on Prince George St. (across from Baskin Robbins and Blue Talon). Good continental breakfast, good parking options and very close to W&M. Great location for Colonial Williamsburg.

The staff is fantastic! Very friendly and considerate.

This is a very historical area, there are lots of things to see. Easy to walk to all the locations. Good food and the Fife And Drumm Hotel were great. Parking is included.

Fife & Drum is in a great location. We were able to walk to the historic Williamsburg area, and many restaurants in under 5 minutes. The innkeeper, Mr. Scruggs, is very helpful with info about ticketing, in addition to baggage. We had a very pleasant stay.

We were pleased at the welcoming feeling provided by this establishment. The facilities and staff were thoughtful. Everything came together very well in this laid back impeccable colonial atmosphere.

We stay in Williamsburg several times throughout the year. So glad to have found this gem! Such a charming Inn located in the heart of Historic Williamsburg. One mile walk from Merchant’s Square. Great cafe/coffee shop located adjacent to the Inn. We enjoyed a scenic morning walk in historic Williamsburg just a step outside of the Inn! Definitely planning many stays here again in the future.

For those desiring an amalgam of history and contemporary conviences, The Fife and Drum is an ideal setting with its location in Merchants Square next door to to Colonial Williamsburg. There is nothing mass produced here; rather the beautifully furnished rooms have detailed one-of-a-kind features, such as a telelvision ensconced in a clapboard house and original art. A fireplace warms the breakfast room that also holds reading material and wooden games, whilst a few steps will lead you up to the peaceful patio that overlooks the pedestrian street adjacent to shops and the historical site. The owners are replete with local knowledge.No car was needed; everything one could wish for was in easy walking distance.

The operators were very friendly, and it was a very high quality experience.

We found the B&B to be right in the middle of Colonial Williamsburg. We really didnt need to drive anywhere once we checked in. Room was clean and comfortable. We had a short stay but will definitely stay there again.

Absolutely lovely staff and beautiful inn in the Heart of Colonial Williamsburg. We will definitely be back!

I loved everything about my stay! It was so charming and I loved the historic vibes. I wish I could’ve maximized my time at this B&B because we loved it!

Only one block from old section of Williamsburg. SO convenient! Staff super friendly and supportive.

Great location, clean, very good hosts

Centrally located, the Inn allowed me to walk historic thoroughfares after a quick coffee, and to pop out for steamed mussels and a glass of wine after a late afternoon nap. I spent quiet, restful evenings and enjoyed chatting with Billy, the owner, over breakfast. It turns out he owned a gas station transformed into an oysters and tacos bistro where I had a superb lunch. Billy pointed me to a wine store offering good bottles at $10. I left rested, refreshed, and ready to return.

Great location, clean, very good hosts

The Fife and Drum is the perfect little getaway place in Colonial Williamsburg that was in the middle of everything. We walked to almost every destination we were going to, the food choices right down the street were great and the caretakers are gracious and friendly. The rooms had cute Colonial touches from the lantern in the closet (if needed) to the old style waste cans, it has charm all throughout the inn.

My wife and I loved our time at the Fife and Drum Inn. It was in the perfect location. It was so clean and perfectly decorated. Billy and Sharon were super nice. When we return to Williamsburg with our two children, we’ll definitely be staying at the Fife and Drum.

Great stay. Billy was a great host. Very informative...clean B&B with great proximity to downtown historic district. Comfortable, quiet- easy check in and plenty of refreshments and goodies especially when arriving later in the day after a long ride. He even saved me 49 minutes off a trip as we continued south the next day and took the James River ferry! Thank you! Highly recommended

Wonderful place. My son & I went as we were going on a history tour of Jamestown & Yorktown. Very well located and my son particularly enjoyed the free hot chocolate. Rooms were nice and clean. Son would've wished for a computer desk for his laptop but I used the common room. Technically the parking is not on-site but it's just across the street

Excellent location...Excellent host

The owners, Sharon and Billy, made us feel like we were at home. A perfect spot in town to spend a couple of nights.

This was a great find for us in Williamsburg, and if you want to be in a very convenient location hosted by really friendly and service-oriented owners this is definitely the place. Billy and Sharon S. were not only wonderful hosts but attended to our every need. The room was great with a 17th century theme but appointed with all the niceties one would want. The owners are locals who pride themselves in continuing the great hospitality that Williamsburg has provided since it was founded. Not only are they well-versed but know the history and legacy of all the local history. If you are coming to look at the College of W&M for possible attendance there, look no further than this Inn for your travel plans. We highly recommend the Fife and Drum and when you travel to Williamsburg, do yourself a favor and get the treat of staying in a setting that continues the great hospitality afforded in this wonderful City.

We arrived a bit after check in and owners had a simplified alternative for us. Room was cozy Location was excellent to all shopping and historic Colonial Williamsburg sites. We loved our trip and would revisit at same property maybe try a different room the next stay

We will never stay anywhere else when we visit Williamsburg. The owner was great! He gave us special tips to help us on our excursions and told us about locals spots that ended up being a highlight of our trip. The Inn was beautiful! Our room was cozy and spotless, felt right at home!

Unique hotel, convenient location, friendly accommodating staff with good cookies!!Warning there are stairs but Billy the owner was kind enough to help us with ours. The beds are only ok as far a comfort goes, but the place really grows on you, after three nights we were sad to leave.

Excellent location. Very accommodating owner ad staff.

The location was fantastic and the staff was helpful. We would have liked more whole grain at breakfast.
