It is a beautiful old Art Nouveau hotel located in downtown Providence. Comfortable and somewhat down at the heels. Helpful and pleasant staff.

Awesome Time

This hotel was a really good time, it's an old hotel, but I expected that coming in. Right near all the bars, so it was very convenient. Loved it.

I really didn't know what to expect and the Biltmore in Providence was a great surprise. Classy and at the same time very casual, in a perfect location with all the amenities you may need. Highly recommended !

Nice place to stay

My friend and I were looking for some place to stay while visiting friends for a few days. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful in accommodating us. The room was very comfortable and we got a kick out of the giant chair in the living room. Very nice hotel, will definitely stay there again when we're in the area.

The train station is right around the corner. I was afraid I'd have to spend money on a cab but once you leave the station there's no missing the Biltmore- just walk towards the sign!

Couple getaway

Our room was a king size bed with no dresser and only one chair for the desk. The desk was visibly scratched and the wallpaper marked and worn.

Horrible Experience

I went to this hotel for the location and for the reputation it had from when I used to live there. Well, the lobby looked great, valet parking, good location in downtown. They give a good deal in the rooms because they charge $26.00 for parking. I wouldn't have cared if the rooms were up to date. The rooms are old, the hallways smell old and funny....When we got to our room the bed linens are old, the wallpaper is coming out and the walls were cracked. Too bad, this is the Biltmore in Providence, a classic. Will never go back!

Pleasant surprise

Really enjoyed our stay at the Providence Biltmore. Great room (junior suite with 2 king beds). Excellent location and enjoyed having the big Starbucks and McCormack & Schmick's right downstairs. Would stay here again.

Charm

Excellent staff at the front door, and desk. The hotel is charming and had a lot of room in the two room king suite. $121. The living room was a corner with a great view of the down town. Restaurant and the bar had great seafood, mussels, clams, and the dinner of atlantic salmon with truffel mushrooms very fresh. I liked the trade off of older room and decorating (bedding was updated and comforatble) for large room and good location. The overnight parking for $26 was the only negative but total price still less than other down town properties. I recommend this hotel.

Quality and worth the price for convenience.

The Providence Biltmore was extremely convenient. Right downtown and near the hospital (where I was interviewing). Older bulding but very clean. Restaurant and Starbucks right off of main lobby. Would stay again.

Good bones, but showing age.

The Biltmore is a classic old hotel in the heart of a reborn Providence city center. It's location is a strong suit, but the hotel is getting a bit long in the tooth. Rates were reasonable, the bed was extremely comfortable, and WiFi is provided free of charge, but walls and adjoining room doors are thin, paint is chipped here and there, TVs are older, tube style lacking HD. Staff are capable but not extraordinary, the hotel restaurant an outlet of a quality chain (McCormick & Schmicks) and room service prices not horribly high. A refit & refurbish (and perhaps fixing the signature glass elevator?) would breathe new life into the Biltmore, as the Downtown around it has been revamped over the past 10 years.
