Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I was on my way to e-trade which by the way was a terrible customer experience: long wait times on hold, ignoring picture ids, locking accounts for no reason. I thought the campus was expansive and quaint. The surrounding villages has a great organic supermarket despite it's small stature it provided a variety of "foreign" products. The campus is far bigger than i thought. The lake is gorgeous.

Princeton University is a prestigious private Ivy League research university located in Princeton, New Jersey. It was founded in 1746 in Elizabeth as the College of New Jersey, and moved to its present site in Princeton in 1756. The campus dominates the town of Princeton, and is perhaps the main drawcard for visitors to the town. Just to have a wander through the campus was the sole reason for my visit to Princeton, and I’m pleased I made the journey from New York City.
The campus is quite big, but very easily walkable, though there are a few steps in various spots. Before my visit I’d earmarked a few of the historic and beautiful buildings I wanted to see - the likes of Nassau Hall, Chancellor Green, the Alexander Hall, the President’s House, East Pyne, The Firestone Library, the chapel, and the elegant arched castle-like structure that is the Buyers Hall at Mathey College - and a couple of sculptures, particularly the Henry Moore sculpture. The odd think I noticed about visiting the campus is that none of the buildings are signed, and there are no general signposts throughout the campus showing the direction to important buildings, or, for that matter any large campus maps. So download a campus map if you need help with finding things. Don’t bother to ask students. I visited in term-time and asked a few students for directions, and not one of them had a clue.
There’s some elegant buildings on the campus, in a variety of architectural styles. A lot of it seemed to be 'Old English'. I loved the Alexander Hall with its turrets, and the the sculptures and wording on its facade. It honours three generations of the Alexander family, who all served as University trustees. The hall was completed in 1894. I thought the ivy-covered Nassau Hall was also very picturesque. It’s the oldest building on the campus, being constructed in 1756. East Pyre with its central courtyard and castle-like appearance was built in the late 1800. Its brownstone exterior has many sculptural details. It adjoins Chancellor Green and was built at the same time. Chancellor Green’s beautiful octagonal rotunda with stained glass windows and a large dome is certainly wort checking out. The Firestone Library is a much later addition to the campus, being constructed in 1948. I didn’t find it particularly attractive. It’s across the courtyard from the campus chapel, a very pleasing and elegant structure indeed. I think the loveliest building on the campus is the President’s House. Also known as Maclean House, it was built to serve as the home of the President of the College of New Jersey, which later became Princeton University. It was completed in 1756, the same year as Nassau Hall. The soft yellow facade of the house is best viewed from Nassau Street. The nearby Henry House is very similar.
As you would expect there are lots of halls of residence around the campus. I found Buyers Hall, with its castle-like turrets and grand arch, particularly grand. I also found Lochard Hall visually pleasing.
The grounds are beautifully manicured, with expanses of lawn and trees. When I visited in spring there were many flowering trees and shrubs, and garden bits were filled with tulips and daffodils.
The campus is worth a visit, and it is free to do so. I arrived in Princeton Junction via train from New York, and took the ‘Dinky’ train into Princeton, a journey of about 10 minutes. The campus starts a short walk from the 'Dinky' station.

Wonderful architecture, imposing buildings, and very friendly environments. It’s worth to visit and spend a few hours wandering around and simply enjoy the scenic views.

The cheeky parking warden Pamela Ramirez that waited by our car for exactly 2 minutes after the car parking ticket (which was earlier achieved with great hassle from a tedious online process) expired will be glad to know that this prospective parent will never return to this location.
Leaves a nasty taste when one experiences such an egregious act of unneeded authority during the official holiday time. If this is how they treat prospective parents on short visits, it’s hardly worth trying to understand how they will treat students.

Being one of the classic Ivy League universities, of course it is nothing else to expect than an old English Uni campus feeling. This was fulfilled. Beautiful just strolling around and absorbing the atmosphere, feeling the wings of history. Highly recommended, as is the town itself, clearly influenced by the international / European ancestry and academic population.

A very scenic campus with traditional gothic architecture. It has the look and feel of an Ivy League school (and not all do). Very nice walking experience around campus.

While the Princeton campus may be open, their free art museum is going through some construction right now. Bummer! Wish we could've seen it after such a long drive.
It is certainly classically beautiful here - the architecture is stunning. Tons of little shops around, featuring preppy sophisticated brands. A quiet, earnest vibe.

Not much to say about Princeton University - it's fame precedes us. The Campus is lovely and perfect for a leisurely stroll even in summer since the tree canopy is enormous. Only thing that mars the eye candy is the hideous I.M. Pei dorm - a travesty of 1960s architecture which doesn't blend in and is ugly in and of itself.

HI, I am visiting Princeton tomorrow and want to make sure if what you posted on Trip Advisor is an actual self-guided walking tour of the university? I just want to make sure that if I follow it it is 100 percent correct because I am bringing friends. Thank you very much, Michele

Hi, what I wrote is 100% correct but take into account that matters may have changed since then. We had a most successful and welcoming viti. May you enjoy the place as much as we did.

The Princeton Campus fronts Nassau Street. The Admissions building is one of the first off Nassau Street.Nassau is full of restaurants , shops and has a bookstore that has great maps of the School & surroundings. The campus has so much to see. just 'walking around" is a pleasure. some places that are my favorites are the Art Museum, the Chapel, the gardens(along side of Woodrow Wilson's Home when he was President). If you have questions while you're walking just ask anyone. Enjoy!
P.s. Don't miss the Pub in Nassau Inn. It's a bit of Princeton History.....You will see the wall of prominent Princeton Grads. And a great Norman Rockwell.

Hola Andrés, quisiera saber un poco más acerca de la visita a la universidad, si se puede entrar de forma libre o sea que no hay problema en ingresar para conocer el campus, no hay ningún tour para recorrer ¿verdad?, y si podés contarme algo que creas que deba saber, porque dentro de poco pienso ir a visitarla y no quiero llegar y encontrarme con alguna sorpresa inesperada. Gracias!

Hola! No soy Andrés, me llamo Gemma pero también opiné sobre la Universidad de Princeton hace un tiempo. Respondiendo a tu pregunta, hay un edificio dentro del Campus de la Universidad que creo que es el de adminsiones que organiza tours guiados dentro del campus en horarios pactados. Es muy interesante pero si no consiguieras hacer un tour guiado, el simple placer de pasear por tu cuenta dentro del campus ya valió la pena el viaje, es una preciosidad en cualquier estación del año.
where can find the students tour guide?
