New managers, MUCH poorer food, wine, service & property cleanliness
Pros:

We’ve been coming to Williamsburg Winery and the Wedmore for years. It has been one of our favorite weekend trips in Virginia for food, wine, ambiance, great facilities and superb staff.

Unfortunately, the Wedmore seems to be losing its touch.

We were there for three days in mid May and found way too many (new) negatives.

We found a used/opened, half-full wine bottle in our room at check in.

The wooden floor in the room was sticky for some reason. Like as if someone had spilled champagne and didn’t clean it up.

The breakfast service had changed from exquisite French continental to a more American same menu every day of frozen/processed items. One of the reviewers said it was like at a Holiday Inn. We’ve had breakfast at Holiday Inns—the food is fresher, more varied and overall better than what is currently being served at the Wedmore.

The wine tastings no longer feature the vineyard’s reserve offerings and now even include imported rather than local wines.

With a few notable exceptions, the staff no longer provide the five-star level of service that they provided in the past.

All in all, the magic that Patrick and Francoise Duffeler created with the winery, hotel and restaurants is now missing without their presence and the organizational culture that they engendered.

The overall ambiance now lacks the sense that one is at a vineyard somewhere in France rather than in Virginia. The zeitgeist at the property is now kind of sad.

We’ve been big supporters of the winery and even held a family reunion there once. But in its current incarnation, we don’t intend to return.

Wishing the new owners the best, but as of now it looks like they’re making a lot of unforced errors as they seem to be seeking to cut costs more than anything else.

Don't stay here until they figure out how to get Wifi...
Pros:

Great location, spacious room furnished with beautiful antiques, being onsite at the winery provides the opportunity for a wine tasting, which they do quite well.

Cons:

Three key issues for why you should NOT stay here:
1) No WiFi at this property. We were told at check-in that the WiFi is "sketchy," but in fact it was non-existent. Property is also a bit remote, so there is very little cell phone signal. Without WiFi, we were unable to even download email or to use the Internet to get any information. They have a list of 4 or 5 different networks that guests can log on to, but each time you log on to a network, the signal promptly drops and then you have to try another network. We just gave up after 30 minutes of typing in different passwords and always having the network immediately drop.

2) Water temperature in the shower is lukewarm at best. Also, for some reason, they have switched to hand-held showers and capped the wall-mounted shower head outlet...this results in having a hand-held shower mounted on the wall of the rather small shower stall so that the shower head is in your face (or for taller people, at chest level). Why did they get rid of the traditional shower mounted on the wall above the shower stall.

3) The breakfast is like being in a middle-school cafeteria. Very limited options and it can take forever to get coffee served at your table.

Lovely location with access to the winery tasting room and Gabriel Archer Tavern.

Pros:

The building itself was beautiful to look at. The winery tasting was lovely. The tavern dinner was good. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

We had no internet or cell service the entire weekend (we tried all Wi-Fi options. None would connect to the internet). Very frustrating and inconvenient. Coffee by Keurig on the base level as the only option before 8am. Lotion and Conditioner containers empty. Shower was lukewarm. Not great after our 30 mile bike ride. We really had high hopes for our weekend here, sadly very disappointed.

Not a good place to stay
Pros:

We just got back from the Wedmore Place. We were there for a wedding in Williamsburg. While we were there, we had NO internet access or television access. The place is old which is fine, but we were on the first floor. When the people in the room above us walked we could hear every creak of the floor. The noise from a party down the hall came blaring through the vent. There are a million places to stay in Williamsburg. We do not recommend this hotel.

A wonderfully unique European style experience in a vineyard with winery
Pros:

This is the only place we stay on the numerous occasions we travel to Williamsburg. Unlike the many generic hotels in the area, this winery hotel achieves a European like experience with unique rooms, antiques, wooden floors, real rugs, comfortable beds, and a wonderful breakfast.

Cons:

Just know that this is a smaller hotel that is not staffed later in the evening.

Pros:

The breakfast was good, the room was beautiful, and the atmosphere was very calming. However, we could hear everything that happened upstairs, the person above us paced and we heard every wood creek, we did not have phone signal, a working TV, or Internet. We checked out a day early and were offered a refund for the second night.

Pros:

This was a clean, comfortable, and elegant option for us as we visited our kids at W and M for Parents Weekend. Parking was easy and accessible to town via a short drive. Property had a very tranquil, rural ambiance. Both desk attendants we met were very friendly. We were sorry that we could not stay longer and take the wine tour, but something to look forward to next time.

Very nice stay.

Little problems: Tv was not working and the outside could use a little lighting for safety

The gravel road needs some work. There are many potholes on the road

The stay was very nice

Quiet retreat with wonderful breakfast.
Pros:

The location was lovely. We arrived after dark, so we didn't get to enjoy the view until morning. It was so quiet. The courtyard and pool area were beautiful. We enjoyed the breakfast which was included. Lots of options including the usual bagels and fruit they had hot quiche and sausages. They also stock the local winery's wine and we purchased a bottle. They even had the wine we wanted chilled and ready to serve. We left before the winery opened the next day at noon. Too bad as they included free wine tasting with the room. We did walk around the winery tasting area and cafe looked lovely. Wish we had time to enjoy them.

Cons:

About 11:30 the fire bell went off, fortunately, we were not asleep yet. Not sure what set it off as we didn't smell any smoke. While the guests waited outside the night supervisor came and reset the alarm. I heard the following morning that the fire department came to checked everything out to be sure, but we had already gone back to our room before they arrived. They did tell us not to use the fireplace so perhaps another guest didn't follow the rules.
