Hotel Matrix
The travel program publishes a hotel matrix (see Related Documents below) for University administrators, travel arrangers, and event planners. The matrix summarizes negotiated rates and hotel amenities at all of the University's preferred Princeton-area properties. It allows University affiliates to compare local hotel rates and see which amenities are available to guests -- such as shuttle service, restaurant on premises, and breakfast included. This document is not for external distribution.

Palmer House
Palmer House is located on Nassau Street only two blocks from the front gates of campus. It is a historic bed-and-breakfast and the only guest hotel/inn owned by Princeton University.  Palmer House offers elegant accommodations and free parking exclusively for University-sponsored guests. It is the preferred choice of many university departments for hosting individuals and small groups, and can only be booked by University faculty and staff. Guest accommodations can paid be through a department chartstring. To make reservations, contact Innkeeper Jodi Pianka at [email protected] or visit Palmer House.
