The only
hotel
in the center of Princeton is the pompous, ersatz-colonial
Nassau Inn
on Palmer Square (tel 609/921-7500; $160-200). Budget
motels
can be found along US-1 and in the suburb of
Lawrenceville
a few miles south of town; there's the functional
Red Roof Inn
, 3203 US-1 (tel 609/896-3388; $35-50), and the
McIntosh Inn
(tel 609/896-3700; $50-75), by the Quaker Bridge Mall on US-1, along with the more relaxing
Best Western Palmer Inn
, 3499 US-1 at Alexander Road (tel 609/452-2500; $100-130).
There's cheap diner-type
food
along Witherspoon Street.
Panera's
, 136 Nassau St (tel 609/688-1692), serves tasty, reasonably priced sandwiches, or for a more upmarket feast, the popular
Annex
, 128 Nassau St (tel 609/921-7555), serves quality Italian dinners by candlelight.
Mediterra
at 29 Hulfish St (tel 609/252-9680) is an upscale Mediterranean restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere and well-prepared food.
Nightlife
is limited, especially out of term time, but the
Tap Room
bar downstairs at the
Nassau Inn
is usually full of ancient revelers drinking, reminiscing and enjoying live jazz. Other useful information
