“Fantastic hotel!!!”

After a very long day of travel we arrived 12 hours late to the hotel due to flight delays and were exhausted, but were happily surprised by the friendly staff and amazing hotel! The front desk staff were helpful and accomodating, while the room was beautiful! We were only there for one night, but wished we could have stayed longer. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fabulous place to stay in Providence! It is located right next to Providence Place Mall and was a short walk to shops and rental car locations. I can't wait for the chance to go back again in the future!

“One of the Best”

“Highly recommend”

We stayed at the Renaissance during our daughter's Freshman Parents' weekend. Front desk personnel were prompt and courteous; valets and room service staff were very professional. The room was large and attractively decorated, and featured all the amenities and creature comforts one would expect in a high-end hotel: terry robes, luxurious toiletries, large flat-screen TV. Two minor disappointments that could be explained by the relative newness of the hotel: mini-bar was not stocked; and when I ordered a glass of wine from the room service menu that was listed by the glass, they called and said it wasn't available by the glass. When I told them it was indicated that way on the room service menu, they apologized and brought the wine I had ordered.

“Fantastic experience”

From the moment we checked in, nothing but good things to say. The hotel restaurant was great. Call ahead from your room to be put on the waiting list if you don't have a reservation. Room was spotless, bed incredibly comfortable and the tv was a great perk.

“Hotel staff was most friendly, courteous and helpful.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There was a severe snowstorm the night of our stay. The staff was helpful, not only in securing a taxi to our event, but also to ensure our return to the hotel. I recommend this hotel to all.
