Renowned as the largest living history museum in the world, Colonial Williamsburg offers visitors a taste of 18th-century life through its architecture, costumed interpreters and historical reenactments. The Colonial Houses lie within the Historic Area, offering one-of-a-kind, 24-hour exposure to the very significant foundations of the United States.  The 28 buildings with a total of 76 guest rooms that comprise the Colonial Houses are scattered among the more than 500 recreated and restored structures that make up the town, amid the taverns and shops of the 300-year-old neighborhood.

Each guest room within the Colonial Houses is furnished with period reproductions, overlooking courtyards, gardens and Duke of Gloucester Street, Colonial Williamsburg's main thoroughfare. Among the houses available are the Market Square Tavern and Kitchen, frequented by Patrick Henry and home to Thomas Jefferson as a law student; the Quarter, a dwelling typical of those that housed indentured servants or slaves and the Nicholas-Tyler Office and Laundry, once owned by U.S. President John Tyler.

Guests to the Colonial Houses can be sure that there is no other lodging property in the world such as this collection of homes that America's founding families once inhabited, thus making the stay a most treasured one of a lifetime.

The historic area comprises some 500 reconstructions and 88 original Colonial buildings, 28 of which offer guest rooms in an unmatched historic setting.
