The wall sticker in the bathroom is pealing off just to let you know, it didn’t effect my stay but just wanted to note it so it can get fixed for asthetic purpose :) also I think a screw is loose in the bathroom door it makes an odd clicking sound when it’s almost about to close

The Renaissance is a convenient location to all things happening in the city. It is a very well maintained property. There is no staff to help with luggage so locate a luggage rack if you are traveling heavy. The bar tender Sean makes an excellent martini.

Favorite hotel stay of our east coast trip. Beautiful building, especially lit up at night. Walkable to the Riverwalk, very safe area. Spotless and spacious room. Fantastic bathroom amenities. The most quiet HVAC in a hotel ever. Great breakfast in the onsite restaurant.

Easy check-in. Clean, spacious room. Great place to stay if you're going to an event at the Veterans Auditorium, which is right next door, or anywhere else in Providence for that matter. And, you can have dinner or drinks at a very nice restaurant below before or after the show.

Prime location, right next to the State House, didn’t have a view of it but it must’ve been really nice. The lobby is inviting with great staff and an amazing scent. Room was very clean, the shower had great pressure, and bed was very very comfortable. There’s a mall on the next block and was in a very walkable area to the fountains.

The hotel overall is lovely; however, our room had two issues. 1) The shower had a considerable amount of mold in it and 2) though the view to the State House was nice, the window was so filthy we couldn’t even take a picture through the window of the gorgeous Capital building. Otherwise, all was very good.

Bathroom needs professional work

The staff are all wonderful, from the valets to the restaurant to the front desk. The room we had was large and clean, but for the bathroom. While I do love a shower with good pressure, this was akin to a fire house that bathed the entire room in water. This had obviously happened in the past: there was water damage to the doors, walls, and floor. The tiles wobbled under your feet as you walked. That bathroom needs to be addressed by a professional.
