A pretty boutique hotel in a great location. Staff is friendly, helpful. Rooms are nicely appointed. The sink in the common bathroom on first floor is amazing. One warning: This is an expensive hotel and if you take advantage of a discounted room from a travel site, be prepared to be shunted off to a noisy corner of the hotel... More

I stayed overnight during memorial day weekend. My room was beautiful and very spacious. Aspire restaurant is outstanding. The location is perfect for anyone going to a show or bar hopping/shopping. I would always look for availability here before anywhere else in providence in the future. A great value

This was our second stay at Hotel Providence on our way to Cape Cod for vacation, and it does not disappoint. We used the early booking option, got a lovely room as we requested (high floor, facing the church) and everything about the staff and the accommodations was perfect. We did have a rough time with the new TV system,... More

Don't stay here - I made a HUGE mistake staying here. I am sitting in my room with a bar band playing outside - they are so incredibly loud I can't even hear my t.v. They play until midnight. I just want to go home. The front desk sent up earplugs - is that a joke??? Maybe it would be... More

Dear Valued Guest, We appreciate your comments and apologize that the music from our Saturday night entertainer spoiled your stay with us. Because of the perfect weather this past weekend, it was the first time this season that we were able to have the show outdoors. We increased the amplification slightly due to the competing noise of a busy city... More

We stayed in junior suite at the Providence Hotel for two nights May 19-May 21 & I have to say that we had a great time. The king size bed was comfortable, bathroom was big with a nice shower & great jacuzzi tub. The breakfast was awesome, usually they give you a voucher for $30 to use, & you can... More

Loved this hotel, particularly because of its staff, who were wonderful. However, although on the third floor, we were kept awake by incredibly loud music (we could hear each word of the lyrics loud and clear). When I telephoned the front desk to find out where it was coming from, I was told it was coming from their own Courtyard.... More

Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share about your recent stay. I apologize for the noise disturbance from the courtyard. Although many of our guests enjoy the live outdoor music experience, it is not for everyone, especially when it interferes with one's rest. I will see to it that the courtyard entertainment is kept to a... More

I stayed here for an event at the Dunkin Donuts Center. It was so close and a perfect location. Everything was clean and beds were so cozy! The staff was very friendly and nice. The amenities were pretty basic but nice nonetheless. This is the type of hotel you pretty much just use as a resting place. The bar and... More
