Very convenient to all of downtown. Walking distance to all you can do in a few days or a Lyft ride to any concerts on the perimeter. Very welcoming and friendly.
The staff was very helpful. I had a few issues with my room but the front desk did what they could to make it right.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel was clean and the room was clean and spacious. Vallet sercixe was nice and quick for our car. We arrived and needed to wait 15 min for someone to come back to the front desk.
The continental breakfast was very scarce and old fruit and muffins.
The room was very quiet and comfortable and the shower was nice. Was hoping for free parking and the TV's did not have any streaming apps. Also there was an additional "amenities fee" in addition to the Expedia booking price. Overall good hotel and would stay there again.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Valet and the female receptionist were friendly and accommodating, though the tall male receptionist wasn't. Amenities were sparse, with barely any bar to speak of. The church view from the room was lovely, but overall the $333 weekday rate felt overpriced for what was offered.
Beautiful building and room. The staff was helpful and I found the parking lot across the street to be helpful and cost slightly less then valet parking. Great location near PPAC, walk to WaterFire and excellent Japanese market at the end of the block. Recommended!
We stay at Hotel Providence every chance we get when we see a show at the PPAC (this time we saw the amazing “Lion King”) . . . and—as always—we had a wonderful experience. The room was immaculate, the front desk folks were so pleasant, and the location of this property is minutes away from the theatre. Thanks for another great visit!
We go here very frequently and take our pet too. The hotel rooms are clean and staff are friendly. The breakfast is very good too with an omelette counter.

Good location. Best to plan on going to the fantastic Ellie’s for breakfast, 2 blocks away. Comfortable beds, valet service excellent.
The room was clean, comfortable, and fresh. The staff was friendly and efficient. I didn't take advantage of any meals, and the parking attendant was quite personable and prompt. It was a very pleasant experience.

Room was comfortable & clean.. perfect spot for a night in Providence
Nice clean, good sized room with everything we needed. Excellent location too - every good valet experience with our car. Will definitely stay here again.
Easy getting there and checking in with friendly staff who helped me navigate parking options not using the valet. The room was a good size for two of us staying in two double-beds. Classic style decide, but quaint and clean m.
