I loved this beautiful hotel! It’s right across from the Capitol building and is quiet at night. Rooms are spacious with nice bathroom soaps and amenities like Starbucks coffee. This was my second time staying at this hotel, and I would stay here again the next time I visit Providence.

This elegant transformation of a former Masonic temple was a real surprise since the photos on Expedia looked as if taken at a Holiday Inn. While the rooms are understated, they are just the right size, and everything seemed new and of good quality. (The bathroom hardware is especially beautiful.) The room was completely quiet, and, unexpectedly, the pillows were just right--one firm and the other soft and downy. The masonic theme, beginning with two regal thrones in the lobby, as smarly carried throughout the corridors and rooms.
