Request an upper-floor riverfront room for a great view clear up to the Statehouse.
Gayot
"Many hotels dedicated to corporate travelers are sadly sterile in style. Not so this one... Offers reasonable rates for travelers who can't do without the facilities and services of their offices."

It is almost easier to say what the rooms lack than what they have: There are no minibars or refrigerators, no coffeemakers, safes or iPod docks, and the baths are shower-only models that are tiled floor to ceiling in an effort to avoid having to install shower curtains.
Gayot
"A stylish, welcoming blend of throwback style and modern features."
Condé Nast Traveler
"With a craft cocktail bar, a karaoke lounge, and a beer garden, The Dean is yet more proof that Providence is no longer a sleepy college town."

"The Dean, in a century-old building that once housed a brothel, was named with a nod to nearby Brown University, and the look is equally smart."

"Downtown Providence used to offer little in the way of artsy lodging—for high-minded digs, travelers would stick to ocean-facing suites along the state’s southern coast."
