My spouse and I just returned from a two-night stay in the Brick Tavern. We loved the convenience of being right on the street where we could walk to everything in the village. The building was most likely constructed in the 1930s and you will not be staying in a luxury room! We were on the third floor (which I liked) and the shower is in the dormer. I am 5'4" and could just barely stand up in the middle of the shower. I cannot imagine a person over six feet tall would be comfortable in that shower. If you're tall, I would suggest you request a lower floor. I also would not plan on staying in that small space with someone you are not intimately comfortable with! The tub is also quite old and if you are concerned about appearances, this may not be the choice for you. The accommodations are "well-worn". We found it quaint and enjoyed being close to all of the beautiful structures. We were only able to eat at one restaurant on property- Shields Tavern- during our stay, but it was lovely and would highly recommend.

Loved the location , but there’s a list of bad things. 1. No switch to turn on and off the bathroom lights. 2. Bathroom was very cold. 3. Black mold at bottom of tiles. 4. Dark baseboard was dirty on top. 5. Carpet was gross. 6. When the light came across the wall mirror, you could see the coating of dust.

Staying in the tavern rooms is on its surface a neat experience. You are right in the middle of Colonial Williamsburg and the setting is remarkable. But the rooms are quite tiered, while normally quiet you can hear everyone else going in and out of their rooms, and the lack of amenities in the building is not up to the price. For the money, I'd stay at one of their other facilities next time.

Basically you’re paying a lot for being in the middle of the historic district. It reality felt like a dated Motel 6 once you get inside. We had a problem with our first room and I was surprised we were given a significantly smaller room. (It was a busy weekend so availability might have been an issue.) The concierge was very helpful but they closed at 5:00. Really, at a 5 star facility, that’s ridiculous. Overall I wouldn’t recommend this place. There might be other rooms in the historic that are nice, but I wouldn’t roll the dice and go back.

This place was amazing! To be able to walk around the village at night you feel like you belong there. The building was an original in the room was where Margaret Thatcher had stayed at one time! I cant believe that it was so affordable. This was honestly the best experience I've had on a historically-themed trip!
