Spacious comfortable room, lovely bathroom products, various lighting choices, nice bedding and comfortable mattress and choice of pillows. One disturbance- Saturday night dance party nearby- loud music was heard until about midnight....
The Nassau Inn offers classic accomodations in a historic university town with convenient shopping, dining and access points.
This older but quaint property has ample guest rooms to satisfy any criteria, various meeting rooms, dining and bar facilities and is literally surrounded by lovely boutique shops.
The decor was a little out dated. The room was nice but very bad to no ventilation in the bathroom. Beds were very comfy.

This used to be a grand property, but it’s tired and needs a facelift. The Graduate doesn’t offer the space that Nassau does, and its rates are higher, but it’s new, clean and vibrant. Nassau needs attention paid to it to make it shine once more.
GREAT LOCATION in the heart of Princeton. It is quaint, very clean and dated. But you almost feel that it is dated by design. If quaint is your thing, then you will love it. I would stay again.
