Flight
We recommend flying into Newark or Philadelphia Airport. both around an hour away from Princeton, The other "New York" airports, LaGuardia and JFK, are quite a bit further, and traffic is much worse from them.
Train
New Jersey Transit goes frequently from New York Penn Station to Princeton, and stops at Newark Airport. Note that you should buy a ticket to Princeton, but you get off first at Princeton Junction, and then take the Dinky, a quick small train to Princeton. The Princeton train station is about 1/2 mile walk to the center of town.
Train
Public transportation from Philadelphia to Princeton is not great. There are no trains that go directly from the airport, and only a couple per day that go directly from Philadelphia's 30th Street Station. Typically trains from Philadelphia going north switch in Trenton. We recommend that if you are flying in to Philadelphia, you either rent a car or take an Uber from the airport.
Hotel
The Nassau Inn is one of only two hotels right in Princeton. It is a perfectly fine, older hotel, which has one very important thing going for it: its location. You can walk to almost everything, and it is fun to be right in town. The walk from The Nassau Inn to Morven is about 10 minutes, and to The Ivy Inn, about 12. We'll also have a shuttle going from The Nassau Inn to wedding events.
Shuttle

Hotel
The Peacock Inn is the only other hotel in the town of Princeton. It is a higher end, boutique-y place with a small number of rooms and a cute bar. It is also a quick walk to Morven, the wedding venue. There are many chain hotels on Route One within 20 minutes of Princeton. Note that shuttle service is only provided from the Nassau Inn, above.
