Learn more about hotels in Williamsburg

Founded in 1632 by English settlers and named 'Middle Plantation', Williamsburg is an independent city on the Virginia Peninsula. Encrusted with a wealth of history, it served as the capital of the Colony and Commonwealth of Virginia from 1699 to 1780. Its royal charter, awarded in 1722, stands testament to Williamsburg's status as one of the oldest chartered cities in the United States. This city is not solely about historical grandeur and academic allure; it also served as a crucial thread in the fabric of the United States during the Revolutionary War and Civil War.

Today, Williamsburg forms part of the Historic Triangle, along with nearby Jamestown and Yorktown, attracting millions of tourists annually. City's crown jewel – the restorative beacon of 'Colonial Williamsburg' reverberates with its past echoes, reflecting the everyday life of the 18th-century capital. This magnetism is enhanced by attractions like the College of William & Mary, the second oldest institution of higher education in the US, and the Eastern State Hospital, the first psychiatric hospital of the country. All wrapped up in a fine blend of history and hospitality that Williamsburg has to offer.
