A prime downtown location and immediate proximity to the city’s most popular tourist attractions make the four-pearl Omni Providence Hotel an ideal location from which to base any trip to Providence. The hotel’s numerous on-site amenities — including two restaurants, a coffee shop, small indoor pool, event spaces, large fitness center, gift shop, and access to shopping — all combine to create a resort-style property that offers more in one space than any hotel in the city. While a bit generic in design, rooms are quiet, clean, and many offer excellent downtown views.

On a quiet corner of Bellevue Avenue, the Hotel Viking is a four-pearl option in Newport. The 208 rooms are divided into two categories: newer Newport Rooms and older Historic Rooms. All rooms feature flat-screen TVs, Starbucks coffee, and Lather toiletries, but the Historic Rooms are more limited on extra amenities. With 12 meeting rooms and spacious common areas, the hotel tends to host weddings and events. A daily resort fee covers use of the indoor pool and modern fitness center, as well as Wi-Fi. There are three restaurants and bars on-premise at the Hotel Viking -- a rooftop bar (the highest point in Newport, with stunning views), lobby bar, and upscale restaurant. As an alternative, the Newport Harbor Hotel and Marina is a lovely option overlooking the marina at a consistently lower price.

The Ocean House is a luxury resort, with the rates to match, located on a private white-sand beach in the sleepy coastal town of Watch Hill. The hotel offers a slew of amenities, including a full-service spa, large fitness center, indoor pool (that opens to the outdoors), and plenty of dining options, so there’s really no reason for guests to leave the hotel grounds -- which is good, because there’s not a lot in Watch Hill, aside from the cute little boutiques and shops on the main street.

Hotel Providence is an 80-room boutique hotel centrally located in Providence's Arts and Entertainment District. The interior decor is a mix of traditional New England and European styles, though some may find the rooms more old-fashioned than upscale. But the restaurant and bar have a much more contemporary and sexy feel -- and thus draw a hip, stylish crowd. While its location means plenty of things to do, it also can mean lots of room noise in the summer and on weekends, and there's no pool (you'll find one at the Providence Marriott Downtown). Still, it's a popular site for weddings, and guests traveling with their dogs will likely appreciate the pet-friendly rooms and the "pet concierge" station in the lobby.

It may be a chain hotel, but Hampton Inn & Suites Providence Downtown still has personality and character, thanks in part to its historic building.

Christopher Dodge House offers a quaint, affordable bed-and-breakfast experience in Providence. The full daily breakfast is a nice perk, and the cute rooms are spacious and comfortable (though the bathrooms are on the small side). Details such as four-poster beds, fireplaces, and original tin ceilings from 1858 add historic charm.
