Stayed July 17-19. Driving up, the property is beautiful — the landscaping is well kept and it gives a great first impression. But that’s where the good ends. Once inside, it’s a different story: the hotel is outdated and badly needs a rehab.

I had to check out after only a couple of hours because of how dirty it was. You could smell it wasn’t clean the moment you walked in. My room had visible stains on the floor and the carpet was filthy throughout.

When I sat on the bed to plug in my phone, I could see behind the headboard — there was a thick layer of dust on the wall and floor back there, like that area hadn’t been cleaned in a long time, if ever. On top of that, the showerhead was black with buildup, which alone was a dealbreaker.

I couldn’t stay in a room that unsanitary. The one bright spot was Barbara at the front desk — she was understanding about the situation and credited me for one night. But the room itself needs serious work.

The Chauncey was an unexpected delight for our stay in the greater Princeton area. Nestled in a business park campus, the location is incredibly quiet, surrounded by landscaped property laced with walking trails. Staying during the week meant that we had the property essentially to ourselves; the staff told us that they are a popular site for weddings, so weekend stays may be a different experience. The facility itself is a 70s era gem, with basic upgrades; this is not a luxurious property, but very comfortable and endearing with lots of common areas to relax. The staff was delightful and responsive, the breakfast buffet fresh and varied, and we were sad to have not brought swimwear to utilize the saltwater pool. Its location made it ideal for exploring nearby Princeton, Hopewell, and New Hope for a few days. We'll definitely be back.

Booking this stay was the best decision I've made all week. My King Room was clean, had a great bed, and was an all-around perfect setup.

The property is also REALLY close to a bunch of great restaurants and amenities, so if you don't want to drive more than 10 or 25 minutes for a treat, then you're in the right place.

This will be be my new go-to hotel from now on, when my travel brings me to the area.

10/10 I highly recommend the Chauncey!!

The free breakfast was great! Especially the omelette station. The property itself is on this sprawling green, quiet & peaceful campus for this educational testing company. I did eat at their bar/restaurant C bar. While tbey got the order out quickly & selection of menu items was good, the food - not impressive. I was delighted to have an ourdoor patio off my room on first floor, but the chairs out there seemed old, dirty & not sturdy. I was near elevator & ice machine so I worried about noise at night, but I had no issues, but I did have the fan on the a/c going all night… all in all, I would return!

Room is mostly clean, floor was not. Front office check in woman was friendly, one other i spoke to on phone was not. I was told to come get my own towels and coffee refill when i called for housekeeping. Woman was very rude. Breakfast was good and clean buffet and all staff at the buffet are friendly and helpful. We've stayed here numerous times and out of the convenience of the location we'll stay again in the future however if there were other hotels in same area i would choose somewhere else. Too bad because the place is nice and mostly clean just that one front desk staff woman has been rude e very time I've interacted with her. Tall, African American woman. Additionally the tub in our room was very slippery and no grab bars on the wall. I know is not a handicap room but that shower floor is dangerous and a slip hazard.

Did not feel welcomed in spite of spending on an upscale room. Frankly speaking don’t even think I got what I paid for. The hotel had 10-12 guests in total and for the money they could have gotten me in to a better room. Instead got a room with view of a/c units. And my room’s a/c was the old style ( while I could see other rooms were upgraded). Room smelled weird. Breakfast was alright.
The facility is screaming “remodel me”. Originally booked since it a very nice setting and outside the hotel it’s really nice too.

The property is up kept well and clean. The furniture and decor is a little older, but because it is so well maintained, it was fine. The bathrooms look as if they were upgraded at some point. The parking was free and right across the parking lot. They have a bar and restaurant downstairs and the service was supreme and the food tasty. The surprise bonus was that the prices were very reasonable for hotel prices with three appetizers totaling around $25 with huge portions.

The complimentary breakfast in the dining area on the 2nd floor was impressive. It was real food served buffet style with items such as scrambled eggs, fried potatoes w/ peppers/onions, bacon, sausage, oatmeal, bread bar with a variety of bread and toaster, juice and milk bar, cereal station, many fresh fruit station, and coffee/tea station.

There is a mini fridge in the rooms. There isn't a microwave but there is one in the sundries room near the front desk that has drinks for sale and free coffee/tea.

I would definitely stay here every time I visit the area.

Overall, this was a mixed experience.

Check-in took way longer than it should have, which was frustrating after a long day of travel. The front desk staff unfortunately came off as disorganized and a bit rude, which didn’t make a great first impression.

That said, most of the rest of the staff were amazing. A special shoutout to Ricardo at the bar/food service—hands down one of the nicest and most accommodating people I’ve ever met. Truly made a difference in our stay.

The food was absolutely amazing, definitely a highlight. The pool was also incredible, but there were public swim lessons being held there during our stay. It made it difficult to fully enjoy since we had to be mindful of children who weren’t even hotel guests, which felt a bit odd.

As for the room, there were a few ants—but considering the hotel is in the middle of the woods, it wasn’t entirely surprising. I only saw about three over a four-night stay, so it wasn’t a major issue.

All in all, some definite highs and lows—great food and standout service in some areas, but improvements are definitely needed at the front desk and with overall organization.

it was a very interesting place to stay -- a bit out of the way as it was located on its own campus a short distance out of town (Princeton).

There were very few if almost any other guests staying there while I was ther (Superbowl weekend).

Needing accessibility for a hip/leg injury, the hotel has ramps designed into multiple areas making accessibility seamless. The views from my hotel room were all gorgeous. The hotel staff were all very friendly, especially Jocelyn at the reception desk. The breakfast offering included multiple menu options, sit down at a restaurant style area and friendly efficiently removing used dishes from the tables. I only stayed for one-night and wished my stay was longer. This was a wonderful hotel experience, which I don't find too much anymore.

Not recommended, rude front desk ladies.

I would not recommend this hotel if you’re looking for friendly service or a pleasant stay. The customer service was very disappointing.

The front desk closed the restaurant 30 minutes before the posted hours because of a wedding, and when I called to see if the kitchen could still prepare something (well within their normal service time), the front desk lady was rude and dismissive. She said she “couldn’t communicate with them” — no effort to help, no alternative offered.

The next morning, I asked if I could check out just 15 minutes late, and again the same front desk staff member was rude. Not even because she said no, but because of her tone and body language — unprofessional and unwelcoming.

On top of that, the rooms smell old and humid, which makes the overall experience even worse. Definitely not a good place to stay if you want somewhere comfortable with friendly people.

Our check-in process was uncomfortable, as the supervisor on duty was embarrassing the receptionist who checked us in. I did not notify the receptionist that we brought our fur baby so we were booked on the wrong floor, easy fix, my mistake. The supervisor ushered us back to the front desk and stood over the poor receptionist as she changed our room. I asked her why she was being rude to her and standing over her shoulder, I'm sure she was more than able to change the room appropriately. she replied, \"I'm her supervisor and I want to ensure she does it right\". The receptionist did not seem new, and she checked us in perfectly with no issues. The supervisor was not friendly to us, I can only imagine how she behaves when guests are not around.

OVERALL A GREAT CHOICE!

Overall we love staying at this location 4 miles from our son’s house. Although the rooms are worn and need deep cleaning, as well as a refresh, the public spaces in the hotel are outstanding. Barbara, Jocelyn and Ashanti at the Front Desk are A+. Nadine, Madhu & Sam in the Breakfast Bar are so friendly and helpful. The Bar is such a nice option for dinner. Nelly in Housekeeping is a lovely person but managing staff must be a real challenge since rooms are never that clean or sanitized. Examples: the baseboards and wall under the headboards have a layer of dust. When the bathroom is cleaned between guests the shower liner should be fresh and clean—we had to ask! Debris was under the bathroom vanity so you know the floor wasn’t cleaned. Suggestion: increase the number of Queen bed options vs so many rooms with Full beds, that would be a wise change. Just my 2 cents as a world traveler!
