Top Gloucester Hotel Reviews

Hilton Vacation Club Greensprings Williamsburg

Hilton Vacation Club Greensprings Williamsburg

10/10 Excellent
"This place was absolutely great for our Family. We usually need to book a condo/timeshare type of place as we have outgrown most hotels where we need two rooms and then just becomes too expensive for what you receive. Usually a much better/economical deal with these type of places with a large family. The unit was perfectly clean, no smells, up to date and functioning. even had cookware/glassware in kitchen. The unit is plenty of SQFT for a 2/2 condo. My only thought would be they should sleep more than 6 for that amount of SQ FT. when you compare 300-400 SF hotel rooms sleeping 4 and these units are more than 1000SF it shouldn't be a problem to sleep more, but maybe something to do with their building codes. Tons of amenities to use while you are there too. Love that Hilton's name is on it and audits the place to keep it running well and up to the standards of good hospitality. We toured colonial williamsburg and this place is an easy drive to and from. Staff is great and I love the text feature if you have questions you can text them and they generally respond pretty quickly."
