Beware The Peacock Inn folks! We had a signed contract a full year in advance to rent out the entire inn for our daughter's November wedding and they CANCELED our entire reservation without reaching out or letting us know. Unprofessional and totally uncool. We were left scrambling to find 16 rooms less than two weeks before the wedding. The Graduate Hotel on the other hand was amazing and went above and beyond to help us out...even recommending other accommodations in the area when they were too full to take us all.

BE CAREFUL with the Peacock Inn! Our family reserved the ENTIRE Inn and had a CONTRACT over a year before the date. When we checked in three weeks before the wedding, we were told that our contract/reservation had NOT been registered in their system and that they no longer had the full inn available. What really stung was the dismissive and defensive, completely UNAPOLOGETIC way in which they handled the situation. WE HAD A CONTRACT AND THEY IGNORED IT. We were left to scramble and find our own accommodations with no acknowledgement of terrible situation their mistake and mismanagement had created. UNFORGIVABLE and UNPROFESSIONAL. I would just add that The Graduate, another local Princeton hotel, went out of their way to help our group find lodgings in not only their hotel but other nearby inns.

A great place to chill in Princeton that is close to many restaurants and boutiques. The staff were exceptional, especially Suzette.

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.

The facility was relatively rundown and messy. The flower pots were all empty, and the front porch dirty. The back of the building had trash and left over equipment lying about. We arrived to find a small room, accessed by difficult to navigate stairs with luggage and no offer to assist with our arrival. The room was very poorly arranged with a large futon that took up about a third of the room and did not match the decor. It was not functional. The shower was added on and overly large with no safety features. There were no shelves to accommodate toiletries. The lighting for the sink and commode's separate room was inadequate. The breakfast was cold "pastries" a few yogurt jars and slightly warm coffee. The bed was comfortable. The staff was relatively cold and pre-occupied. The bar-tender was friendly. Would not recommend this to any colleague or friend.

A reminder of what hospitality has been over the years in Princeton. A combination of European & American

Wonderful stay! Beds were amazing. Easily walkable to the main area of town. I left some earrings and management was prompt with returning my call that the jewelry was found and being shipped to me.
