Rodeway Inn Williamsburg Historic Area
Budget rooms with kitchens near Busch Gardens Williamsburg
About this hotel
This Rodeway Inn keeps costs genuinely low without cutting the essentials: free breakfast and parking are included, and some rooms come with kitchens, useful for stretching a food budget across a multi-day stay. A seasonal outdoor pool and hot tub cover swim and relax time, and it sits nine minutes by taxi from Busch Gardens Williamsburg, a workable distance for families centering their trip on the theme-park side. A seven-minute walk reaches 2nd St for local shops, and a two-minute walk leads to Colonial Pancake House for breakfast out. Rooms stay humble and simple, with flat-screen TVs as the one modern touch. It closes on affordability: a genuinely low rate that still covers breakfast, parking, a pool and a kitchen option.

Why guests love itThis was by far the most affordable stay we found, and having a kitchen in our room meant we cut our restaurant spending significantly across the week. The seasonal pool and hot tub covered our downtime just fine. Nine minutes to Busch Gardens was an easy taxi ride each morning. Rooms were basic — no frills, flat-screen TV, clean — but for the price, we couldn't complain.
