Nice staff, especially Summer, who I believe was front desk manager - more importantly, she acted like she was in charge. What great folks and great service. Agreed - the setup of the breakfast/restaurant situation is not ideal, but food and service was good. Good clean business hotel for a good price. More

This hotel has been remodeled and looks great. Nice shiny lobby, great fitness room and pool. The rooms are clean and spacious. Great internet connection. Unfortunately, if you are a business traveler every single bit of this will be spoiled for you when you go down to breakfast in the morning. I went down this morning at about 7:30 and... More

Stayed here for my last trip to New Jersey after staying at the Residence Inn on my previous trip. The staff is great, check in is fast, the lobby is newly remodled and has new furnishings. The room seemed to be recently remodeled as well. My only beef, and this is minor, was that a couple of the TV channels... More

Very friendly and helpful staff, accomodations very new looking and well maintained. Great stay all around. Only issue I had was finding the hotel using the GPS. Don't enter GPS address as "Route 1", it goes to the wrong place on Route 1 a couple miles off, . I later was told it works OK if you enter 3815 "Brunswick... More

I have been traveling to New Jersey this past fall. I have stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott in Princeton New Jersey four times. The rooms have always been clean. The help staff is friendly. I have never had any issues. My one recommendation is to request a room at the back of the hotel. The hotel is fronted by... More

If you are driving here, two pieces of advice. Call for GPS instructions from the hotel ( do not use the street address) as it will leave you arriving at an empty lot a mile away. Also note that this property is in a very heavy traffic area and expect bumper to bumper traffic from about 4:30pm to 6 PM.... More

I stayed at this hotel several years ago and never returned, thinking that it was disgusting and old. Last week, I had to stay here as the Marriott Forrestal Village was booked. The lobby has been remodeled, the same as many Courtyards across the country. Service at check in was great--friendly and fast. Once you leave the lobby, nothing has... More

I was a bit hesitant to book here after reading all the negative reviews, but we were pleasantly surprised. The lobby is nice and modern. The rooms are large, the decor could probably use a little updating but it's what you would expect from a 3-star hotel. I did notice a couple hairs in the bathroom, the cleaning staff just... More

Well, one is often willing to pay the extra dime for a well respected name like Marriott. But in return we expect Marriott standards. At the Courtyard in Princeton (which incidentally is NOT in Princeton, but on the congested Route 1 corridor in Plainsboro) they charge as if they were an elegant boutique hotel in the heart of Princeton ......
