Graduate Providence

LANDMARK LODGINGS IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN PROVIDENCE Built in 1922, this landmark locale (formerly the Providence Biltmore) is bursting with old-school charm. Look up for a view of the lobby’s original ornate ceiling and famed glass-and-brass elevator. Throughout, layers of plaid, tweed and leather provide a healthy dose of post-grad bachelor pad. Mix in some laughs from locals and alums (there’s something about those Farrelly brothers) and you get a hotel with as much humor as history. Located in the center of downtown, Graduate Providence is an unmatched setting for weddings, reunions and other celebrations. The historic venue boasts a whopping 18,000 square feet of event space (hello, Grand Ballroom!) and is close to the campuses of Brown University, the Rhode Island School of Design, Providence College, Johnson & Wales University and Rhode Island College. Whether you’re in town for a meeting, a wedding or to cheer on your alma mater, we’re here to make your visit memorable. Our warm, friendly and whip-smart staff (#humblebrag) will guide you around Providence, so that you feel like a local even if it’s your first time in town. Our rooms are ready for a night like you’ve never had before, where little moments of surprise and discovery will meet you down every corridor and around each corner.
