Set up Base
Stay in a place as historic as the city it’s in. Though Providence’s roots reach back to 1636, Graduate Providence has a story all its own. Formerly the Providence Biltmore, Graduate Providence’s redesigned rooms pay homage to PVD’s heritage, as do the countless attractions outside our front door. Rest up just steps from five major universities, BankNewport Skating Center, Providence Place Mall, and countless other attractions that make Providence one of a kind.
