Delightful old school but modern hotel right next to Princeton University!

I had the unfortunate experience of staying at the Nassau Inn at the end of June 2025 for my best friend’s wedding, and it has been a nightmare from start to finish.
During our stay, a fire broke out in the neighboring building, which led to multiple fire alarms and restricted access to the hotel throughout the day. This was NOT the issue. Emergencies happen, and the fire was not the hotel’s fault. However, what followed was unacceptable and deeply concerning.
The next morning at 6 AM, I was abruptly woken by flashing lights in my room. There were no emergency ongoing, no sirens, only intense strobing lights. As someone with epilepsy, this was both terrifying and dangerous. In addition to the flashing lights, the emergency doors in the hallway remained closed and slammed shut each time a guest passed through, shaking the walls and my bed. These two disturbances, along with several other issues throughout the stay, caused immense stress. My boyfriend spoke with a member of the management team that morning and was assured we would be contacted after our stay. No one followed up.
I eventually called the hotel myself and requested to speak with a manager. I was told I was speaking to one, but they had no knowledge of the weekend’s events as they had not been onsite. They promised that someone who had been present would contact me. That never happened.
Today, July 21, I called again and was transferred to a voicemail, where I left a detailed message. I called back immediately to explain that I had just been sent to voicemail and once again asked to speak with a manager. I was assured I would receive a call before the end of the day and was told the manager had radioed in that they were in a room and would return to their desk shortly. I repeated multiple times that I wanted to confirm I would receive a call today. I was told yes, I would.To my complete disappointment, I never received that call.
I called back after 5 PM to report that I had been promised a call from a manager today and did not receive one. This marked the third time this commitment had been broken. The person I spoke with said they had no knowledge of my earlier calls, informed me they were not a manager, and said they would pass my name and number along to either Kyle or Jessica, who would be in tomorrow.
At this point, I am enraged by the complete lack of service, accountability, and follow-through. We were so excited to finally stay at the historic Nassau Inn, a place we grew up admiring. What an unbelievable disappointment. Save your money and your time. Do not stay here.

Venue was beautiful, food was amazing, the packages they have are affordable and all inclusive. However, the planners that I communicated with seem unorganized. I had been emailing Debbie during the planning phase. Debbie seemed like she couldn't be bothered with our wedding. I also had to always ask her for what other decisions we need to make so planning was completed. However, on the day of our wedding Debbie was not there. Amanda was our day of planner, which this was not communicated to us. I asked Amanda if she could run through the timeline of everything with the DJ. She said she did, but she did not. We get into the dinner and dancing space and the DJ wasn't cued to play our first dance song. So my husband and I go over to the DJ and tell the DJ the timeline. Then as salads are coming out Amanda asks if she can leave, she said she doesn't have anything else to do. We said she could, but again, she had not communicated with the DJ at all. So we had to handle that the entire night.
As part of our package we stayed in a complimentary suite for our wedding. The room was great, except there was no hot water. I went to shower after our reception and the water was ice cold, not even room temperature. Since it was after midnight at that point there was no one to fix the water issue. This really ruined the experience of the room for us.

During a recent trip to Princeton the staff at Nassau Inn went above and beyond. Unfortunately we had not booked a room at the Nassau Inn and due to a bad experience at the hotel we were staying at I cold called Nassau Inn to see if they might be able to help with a daytime luggage storage issue. Wanda answered the phone and was a breath of fresh air after hours of frustration dealing with a different hotel and the university. Wanda was helpful and understanding. Nassau Inn saved the day and if we are ever back in Princeton we will be staying there. Top notch customer service and amazing location right in the heart of all the shops and restaurants across the street from the University.

Terrible place to stay. Had the alarm go off in my room the entire night. When I called the front desk, all they said was book a room somewhere else. If you like to listening to an alarm go off in your room all night, this is the place for you.

For a trip to Princeton University, the location was perfect. Very walkable to school, shops, and restaurants. The staff were amazing. The hotel is old and has a historic vibe.

Lovely, historic inn in the heart of Princeton. Clean, large and comfortable room. You could walk everywhere and they gave us a credit for parking. We ate breakfast in house at the Yankee doodle taproom. Hearty, delicious and reasonably priced!

I photographed Isabel and Dan's Wedding in July at the Nassau Inn and it was stunning. The attention to detail in the set-up was evident. All the pieces of the day... Getting Ready, Cocktail Hour, and the Reception were exceptional and so fun!

We went to the Nassau Inn Restaurant to eat a late lunch today. I ordered the breaded fried calamari, and a side order of broccoli. Well the fried calamari was terrible, it was way overed cooked. I couldn't even eat it, it was like hard leather. But the broccoli was good, that is what I only ate. For the price of this over cooked calamari wasn't worth the price. Very disappointed with my order. But I gave the Restaurant 2 stars, because it was clean. And the bathroom was clean as well. Our waiter was nice, he did his job well. But the food needs to be better, or get a new chef!
