What was once a first class property has grown tired and lazy. The couldn't-be-more-convenient location is wonderful, but service is bad, food so-so, and the facility just generally in need of a major overhaul. The dining room, which back in the day was once one of the better dining spots in towns, has been sectioned off and rented out as... More

located at the square, from a walking distance to the university. seems a bit run-down. not an excellent value for money, good location though. the building stands since 1756, the old historic charm is still visible.

This place is right in the middle of town, on the square, and a minute walk to the university. The reception area is dark and small, but the rest of the lobby rooms are pleasant and inviting. My room was tiny, but recently remodeled, and well-kept. It was quiet and the bed was reasonably comfortable. I couldn't get a Verizon... More

I stayed at the Nassau Inn while visiting Princeton for a workshop and didn't enjoy the experience. My room was cramped -- the double bed (I had paid for queen) barely fit, the closet was blocked by a token chair placed in the corner, there was no desk, etc. -- so much so that I felt like I was in...

But now it's so-so. I've stayed there a number of times. Once they gave me the smallest room in the history of creation, or at least in Princeton. This time the room was spacious, but little things were bothersome. Like asking for a quiet room and being put directly above the street. Plus, the people at the front desk don't... More

Dear Winstonthecat1, We are happy to read that you enjoyed your more spacious room now that our rejuvenation project is complete. We strive for 100% guest satisfaction and it seems in some other areas we have fallen short of this expectation.

For the first time, we brought our dog to stay at the Nassau Inn. Certainly the Inn does not cater to dogs but they treated him with such love and treated us with kindness. My dog was happy to be there and they even gave him some dog treats and a dog bed. The room was perfect for us and... More

Stayed here as part of group in town for my nephew's wedding. The room had been renovated but was tiny and little room for anything except bed and large flat screen TV on the wall. The decor and furnishings were very drab and colorless and entire hotel was a bit gloomy and dark-- I think to make it look old... More

As other reviewers have noted, all of the Nassau Inn's rooms have been recently renovated and include new carpet, new furniture, updated bathrooms and large flat screen TVs. They're on the small side, however, and electrical outlets are not conveniently located for the business traveler wanting to use a laptop at the desk. Cell phone reception was also spotty inside...
