Great couples getaway!

Very good stay for me and my husband. This hotel has a lot of character because it is a historical building. The room was quite small (we had a regular queen room) but thoughtfully laid out. We also loved the area in which it is located. Everything downtown was walkable, which is what we wanted. One complaint - The continental breakfast was excellent but the coffee was not hot. I could have probably said something about this though. The staff is super attentive and helpful.

Charming Inn Close To Town

The charming inn offers small but comfortable rooms, a great bar where a basic continental breakfast is served, and a restaurant. We held a Sunday brunch there for 12 people. Unfortunately the service was exceedingly slow, but the food good. The dining rooms are very pleasant.

Pleasant stay in Princeton

Pleasant stay at the Peacock Inn. Close to downtown, walkable. Room was small but clean and quiet. Nice shower and bed linens. Helpful staff. Breakfast was continental - not bad. Coffee was excellent. Free NYT & WSJ. Would recommend and stay here again. Thank you!

Our room was spacious and well appointed, the staff were friendly and very accommodating, and the location was terrific. Beautiful and quaint Princeton, NJ's shopping and restaurants are only a short walk away, but the street it is on is quiet and tranquil. We had planned to have dinner at the restaurant the last night of our stay, but we had to leave early so we can't rate the food and service, but the atmosphere is perfect for a romantic night out. One small issue we had was that the room key cards frequently stopped working and we had to keep getting them replaced. Apart from that, the hotel is an old Victorian manor that has no elevator, and all of the rooms are one or more flights up. This is likely fine for most, but should be considered if one has mobility issues.
