Hotel Providence

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience, we'll return"

Hilton Garden Inn Providence Downtown Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Upon arrival, it was confusing how to enter the driveway. We quickly cut across traffic but there is a busy sidewalk and busy intersection as soon as you try to enter the property. The front desk person was alone but it was just a short wait to be checked in. She could have been more friendly, welcoming but she wasn't mean. Other staff could have also been more friendly. I guess after a long drive, it would have been nice to be greeted with a warm welcome. Remember your license plate number, you'll need that if you will park there. There is a parking fee of $32 (I think for stay, but we only stayed one night). We parked in lower level of garage thinking it would be easier to get to lobby...nope. Stairs are only option down there; albeit only 3 or 4, but still. Felt safer parking down there though. Room was beautiful - all updated, nice TV, fridge, microwave, USB ports everywhere, clean, nice bathroom, soap/shampoo smelled so good, hair dryer, hot hot water, pretty quiet. Bathroom stays warm/hot with no exhaust fan. Had to pay a $50 deposit along with the parking fee. Super convenient to Amica arena, Federal Hill and lots of other Providence spots. I would stay here again."

The Micro-Loft at Mt. Pleasant New 2BR APT Parking

10/10 Excellent

"Authentic loft style accomodation in a quiet neighborhood close to amenities and historical highlights. Simple and easy parking and clear instructions for entry when we arrived. Had all the amenities we needed. Bedrooms large and each had a small desk and room to lay out clothing. Full length mirror was a bonus and both rooms had air conditioners and TVs. Kitchen setup was great. Great bathroom with adequate lighting, fan, and high water pressure. For anyone with mobility or knee issues you may find the stairwell hard to navigate, although we didnt have issues ourselves. Notes to host: would love to see more towels supplied. Thank you for courtesy soap and shampoos. Would really love to see some hooks installed in entry, bathroom and bedrooms. Enjoyed the stay!"

Cozy apartment 1st 10min Walk Downtown | City View

8/10 Good

"The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because of the “couch” in the living room was/is the most uncomfortable I’ve ever sat on. At the end of a long day it would be great to pour a glass of wine and relax in front of the TV…but this couch is so hard, I had to use my bed pillows to sit on. Hopefully this will be replaced before our next visit. I would love to come back here again, but the couch is a show-stopper for us. We will be visiting Providence multiple times per year to visit our granddaughter at Brown and this location is perfect for that! The master bed was VERY comfortable, a big “plus” for me."

Cozy apartment 3rd 10min Walk Downtown | City View

10/10 Excellent

"This place gave me everything I needed. The host was very communicative and very nice. Walkable to stuff or a short drive. Neighborhood was quiet. Inside the house it was clean but had some old idiosyncrasies and some minor fixes needed. We could have used more washcloths but that was minor. There was plenty of space. For the price it's hard to beat."
