This hotel is located on 25 wooded acres, across from James Forrestal Campus of Princeton University. The hotel offers a 24-hour gym, 1 on-site restaurants and an indoor pool.

The room was wonderful, and it's a beautiful property. Our problem was we were staying with some people on the same floor who thought it was ok to drop candy wrappers in the hallway, which made place feel filthy. A wine glass not picked up for 12 hours created a similar feeling of too few people on the housekeeping staff. While this must have been a glorious property once, it's slipping, and the housekeeping department is responsible. Furthermore, it costs the hotel nothing to put bottled water in each room - even a small bottle - and the value and appreciation goes a long way.

Element Ewing Princeton is 12 mi from Princeton University and the College of New Jersey is 4.4 mi away. The rooms have a modern décor that is mindful of the environment.

The room was clean and comfy, adding a bonus that breakfast was included.

    Room was very clean. Comfy bed. Pool was pleasant & well-designed. Parking was convenient. Having the snack & coffee bar in the lobby, with such extended hours, was a big convenience.
