Where is good to ....

stay in Williamsburg...In %26#39;04,hubbie,myself %26amp; 2 kids stayed in the Ramada in Williamsburg, NEVER AGAIN !!..(didn%26#39;t know about TR back then) This year we are going to stay with family in Richmond and intend to drive up to Williamsburg to do 1 day shopping (for mom!), 1 day Bausch gardens (will be first in the gate as we had plenty of practice in Disney last year!) and 1 day Watercounty...So looking at a 2 night stay.

We also intend to drive down from Richmond just to do historic Williamsburg with the kids for 1 day.

Our intention is to buy the Bausch/WC tkts from the Bausch website where you can get 7 days access..Or does anyone know of a better option..

Will obviously have a car, but want a %26#39;nice%26#39; reasonable family hotel..Any suggestions would be appreciated..

Where is good to ....

There are many places to stay in the immediate vicinity of Williamsburg. I suggest you start with the reviews and deals of lodgings that appear just to the left of this forum.

Typically the Busch Gardens/Water Country website offers the best ticket prices; remember it is usually not necessary to buy the tickets in advance, unless the price specifically states that it is a ';web-only'; special.

Enjoy your visit.

We would like nice accomadation with a very reasonable rate ! Think USD100 per room per night is our budget... Any recommendations ?/

tks

Many hotels contract with Busch Gardens to sell discount passes for them. You can usually get the passes at a few dollars off purchasing at a hotel that re-sells for the park.

As far as the room %26amp; rate goes, what time of year were you looking to travel?

We will be in the US between 12th Jun %26amp; 28th Jun..

That time-frame is a peak time for this area. If you can%26#39;t find the rates you are looking for directly in Williamsburg, many travelers will end up staying outside of the immediate %26#39;touristy%26#39; area to do so. Newport News neighbors Williamsburg, and is an easy straight shot down the interstate, about 20 minutes or so. You may find lower rates there. When I travel, I find that I avoid the headaches of in-town traffic, %26amp; save time %26amp; money by staying just outside touristy areas, but it depends on your own preferences of course. If so, I would suggest a hotel convenient to the interstate, such as the Mulberry Inn, Point Plaza or the Holiday Inn Hotel %26amp; Suites- those are all nice hotels with great AAA ratings. The Mulberry Inn would be about 15 minutes away from Williamsburg. Their rooms include a deluxe hot continental breakfast, %26amp; they have an exercise room, business center, %26amp; outdoor pool. The Holiday Inn %26amp; Point Plaza would be about another 5-10 minutes away, and also each have an exercise room %26amp; business center, but in addition also offer the option of suites %26amp; each have a full service restaurant %26amp; indoor pool. The Point Plaza also has a nice newly remodeled lounge %26amp; also sells the discounted attraction tickets, including to Busch Gardens.
