You really can't come to Princeton and NOT stay here! We've been there several times now, and it doesn't disappoint! This is the only hotel I've been to where you feel like you're part of a town because you're staying there, even before you walk outside! Being originally from New Jersey, we go back occassionally and Princeton is a great... More

There is one good reason to stay in the hotel: location, location, location. It is perfectly situated in the heart of Palmer Square and within walking distance of several shops and restaurants. I have been in the hotel several times (all for business). My review may be a mix of several of these visits. Reception. In all honesty, it is... More

My family and I stayed at The Nassau Inn over the Christmas holiday. What a wonderful experience! First of all the hotel is surrounded outside by lovely shoppes and restaurants and a beautiful Christmas Tree filled with colorful lights. We so enjoyed this because it filled us with the Christmas spirit. Inside we found a warm and cozy atmosphere; fire... More

The Nassau Inn is perfectly located on Palmer Square in downtown Princeton. The oldest part of the building faces the square and adds to the charm of the setting. But much of the hotel is sadly dated and needs a serious makeover; the owners seem to feel that as pretty much the only game in downtown Princeton and with presumably... More

I stayed here two nights while doing business at the University. The hotel is perfectly situated in the downtown area of Princeton. You are right next to the University and there are many shops and restaurants around. I didn't have a car and that was not a problem. My room was, from what I've read in the reviews, one of... More

Pros - We stayed in one of the renovated rooms and found it to be clean and comfortable. The room was pretty quiet also. The location in downtown Princeton was terrific. Cons - The front desk staff was the worst I've ever encountered (and I worked in the travel industry for 20 years!). They just didn't seem to care at... More

The Hotel staff were pleasant and professional. The room was small but clean and quiet. The beds were comfortable. The route to the room was something of a 'warren' of corridors which was interesting when tired. Excellent location for all of central Princeton's offerings. More
