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. This is Graduate—be ready to be inspired.
“What remains original from its former glory days during the roaring twenties is the glass-and-brass elevator, ornate ceiling, and opulent ballroom, but with a thriving culinary scene and growing arts-driven hub downtown, Providence has a new pulse these days.”
“The Graduate is now the chicest, hippest, and most vibrant hotel in Providence.”
“They’ve managed to make over the space in an absolutely stunning way that still manages to pay tribute to the city’s history.”
