Ask for a room overlooking the State House, across Francis Street, and dine in the swank on-site Mediterranean restaurant, Temple Downtown.

"Unfinished and abandoned for nearly 80 years, the city’s 1929 Masonic temple is now the best thing to happen to Providence’s lackluster hotel scene, thanks to a $100 million renovation." Full review

"Thanks to its location, imaginative design, well-rounded facilities and state-of-the-art accommodations, the Renaissance remains the top address downtown." Full review

Gayot Gayot
"Originally built in 1929 as a Masonic temple, this stylish neoclassical property has been restored to its original beauty, complete with Ionnic columns at the entrance."

"Appealing ten-room Victorian B&B in an old rectory near RISD."
Gayot Gayot
"This is one of those B&Bs where style triumphs over frills and fuss... Its location on Benefit Street puts it among some of the finest Colonial and Victorian homes in the region."
