What guests think

Across many reviews, Courtyard by Marriott Ewing Princeton is praised for clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a convenient, quiet location near Trenton-Mercer Airport and highways, making it a practical choice for short stays and visits.

Guests report recurring issues with the pool and hot tub being closed, cold, or out of order, and the airport shuttle’s limited or unreliable hours. Housekeeping feels inconsistent—some find the property spotless, while others note missed service and occasional cleanliness lapses—and several rooms show wear, temperature or noise problems, and dated fixtures. On-site dining draws mixed feedback: no free breakfast and limited hours contrast with positive comments about the bistro and coffee. Overall, expect a convenient, service-forward stay with variable amenities.

They told me they had a pool and Jacuzzi but did NOT tell me it was closed due to renovations. Food options very limited. Not worth the price.

We reserved a shuttle bus from the airport to hotel. It never showed up. We are older, left in 37 degree cold weather to figure out how to get to the hotel 4 miles away at 9:30 at night. No taxi, no rental car-not nice!!

Stayed two nights at this Courtyard by Marriot in Ewing, NJ. The room was very clean and the hotel staff were friendly. I didn’t like the indoor pool area because there was no ventilation which made it uncomfortably hot and the odor of chlorine unbearable. I would stay again if ever in the area again.

Only a couple of planes running from Trenton airport, both early morning. The shuttle bus doesnt run till 7:30 after the planes have left! A unnecessary expensive uber was requires from an ‘airport hotel’. Rooms decor bit dated too but all functional.

Room was nice and looked clean however it had a dingy old smell. The hot tub was cold the whole time, and never warmed up. The jets in the hot tub also broke down. When it was pointed out to an employee, the response was “yeah a lot of people complain that it’s cold”

I normally do not write reviews, but after my recent experience I feel compelled to share. I would strongly caution against staying at this property. The level of cleanliness and customer service fell far below expectations, particularly for a Marriott brand. Upon arrival, we were given a room that was not properly cleaned. The carpet felt sticky, there was visible hair in the shower, and, most concerning, dog feces on the floor. Because we arrived very late at night and had to leave early the next morning for a funeral, it wasn’t until the following day that I noticed the extent of the issue. When I addressed this with the front desk, I was told the room would simply be cleaned after we checked out—leaving us to return to a room in that unacceptable condition. I later contacted customer service and was offered 5,000 points as compensation. Considering the circumstances, this felt inadequate. In my opinion, the stay should have been fully comped as a gesture of accountability. As a professional pilot, I travel frequently and have stayed in many hotels. Unfortunately, this experience has left such a negative impression that I will no longer consider Marriott properties in the future.

The gentleman at the front was hard to understand. A few nods and we are okay. The hotel appears to be an older with the dingy carpets in the hallway and the loose tiles and cracking grout in the bathroom. It meant my needs for the night.

For the little time I stayed in the hotel, not even once they came and cleaned our room, they didn’t give us any toilet paper we had to go buy some and when we asked for more towels they didn’t even do that. I have never been in a hotel that has done that

A sad hotel that is probably 20 years overdue for a remodel. Everything feels old and outdated, and not in a good way. Cigarette burns in the carpet and drapes. Breakfast / Bistro staff went missing during the morning so I was left to my own to figure out morning food options. Overall, I can't recommend this place - will definitely look at other options when traveling to the area in the future.

The toilet requires the handle be held down for 10 seconds to flush pee or poop. The bed was a 5/10 for comfort. The bathroom door wouldn't stay open. The shower door wouldnt stay closed, hence water flooded the floor after each shower. Bathroom picture frame rusted and gross. Noisy AC/heat unit and when set for 68F only got temp to 73F. Had 12 inches between wall and bed on one side. Silly tight. Liked the unique setup of the room. Liked the swivel TV. Nice sofa. Nice carpeting. Quiet.

Disappointed with my stay. Wayne, a staff member, was rude and unhelpful. Also, several items on the menu were unavailable and we paid for it but was not served when our dinner was brought to us, even though they’re clearly listed. Poor service and lack of consistency really let the hotel down.

The clerk that check me in was not friendly and did not adequately explain why he was putting $40 hold on my credit card. He gave me to believe it was in case I or my family members broke or took things. But the clerk who check me out and the clerk at the Bistro were very friendly and accomodating. I did not appreciate that we had to ask for clean towels the next day and I did not appreciate that our room was not made tidy while we were out. The refrigerator did not work well.

I'm an early riser and was very disappointed not to find coffee in the lobby. A stocked Keurig in the lobbly would have been fabulous and solved this problem. I talked to the staff at the front desk and I didn't like the lack of concern toward me. He told me there was a Keurig in my room, but clearly I didn't want to wake my spouse before 5am. This seems like an easy problem to solve, but it wasn't, making an unhappy guest and lower rating for Marriott.

Stayed here for work and it was convenient and comfortable. Night staff was excellent but having two staff managing the hotel was not optimum. One gentleman handled front desk and driving the van; the other gentleman handled bar & restaurant which included serving, cooking and cleaning up. I was disappointed that the sign in the elevator said there was a happy hour but in reality there was nothing and that we had to pay for breakfast. There is another hotel within a few feet from this one that provides both for free so that would weigh in on my decision of where to stay next time.

Stayed for one night prior to flying out of TTN airport. It is a 4 minute drive from the hotel parking lot to the airport terminal. The hotel was clean & quiet. The staff at the front desk was very polite & welcoming upon our arrival. They were also very polite & helpful with answering a few questions as to nearby places to get a quick breakfast upon departure the following morning before our flight. I’d definitely stay here again if needed .

This property is clean but very outdated. It says there is a bar and restaurant onsite. More like a cafeteria counter. If you want a drink, you either buy beer and wine from the little store by the lobby desk, or bring it with you. The "restaurant is a small cafeteria counter with non perishable food containers. They are open from 5p to 6:30p
