    Stayed here for one night. Even with trying to access the guest WiFi and deluxe package, I could not get onto the WiFi at all. It was incredibly annoying, so I just went a night without WiFi. Couldn't figure out how to dial front desk. They were very polite, though I was kind of annoyed they were calling me by my middle name, which is not my preferred name. Room and hotel is pristine though. Very comfy bed. I didn't want to wake up!

    I haven't stayed at an Omni for many years, but I liked this location and decided to give it a try. The valet service was prompt and we were offered help with our bags, which we didn't need. The check-in desk was available, though it was early and our room wasn't ready. I was told they would text me when it was cleaned. We gave our bags to the prompt and polite bellman, and headed off for a walkabout in Providence. Five miles later, after an excellent lunch at Hemenway's, we returned. I didn't get a text, and our room wasn't ready, in part because we had a corner suite and there are fewer of those available. However the desk clerk told me another suite was available and the same as the one booked, so she checked me in. It was a large and nicely appointed room, with sofa, two wing chairs, large desk, king bed, and expansive views of the city. The room was in excellent condition. But it was warm! It was 74 degrees. I turned the thermostat down to the lowest setting, 67 degrees and made sure it was on AC. About an hour later, the room was still 73 degrees, even though we opened several windows. As the night cooled, and more windows were opened, the temperature went down to 71 degrees, which though still warm, was acceptable. We also had another issue, the TV wasn't a smart TV, it used Google Cast. I tried it from my PC, then my phone, called the front desk, but couldn't get it to work. The next day, prior to heading off to the Seastreak Providence to Newport Ferry, we let the front desk know of these issues. When we returned that evening, the room was 68 degrees, as was the thermostat. Fixed! Once again, I tried to get Google Cast to work with my phone, to no avail. The front desk sent up an engineer, who was able to launch it. You had to tap the room number notification at the bottom of the screen. Google Cast doesn't tell you to do that, but that's how he got it to work. Overall, I was impressed with the Providence Omni Hotel, and think it's in an excellent location. Service was professional and responsive. Considering they use Google Cast instead of smart TVs, and the temperature issue wasn't reported prior to our arrival, I'm comfortable providing a four-star rating for this visit. Yelper Tip - If you want a good, high end dinner at the hotel, dine at Fleming's, not Fleur.

    We have stayed here now for 4 years. The location and building being connected to the mall is a super bonus!!! The staff are also very nice. However the rooms are VERY basic. We always get the corner high floor room that has a great view of the city, but the rooms are starting to be in need of some TLC. The outlets are loose and finding one that allows my phone charger to stay put without falling out, the windows being UBER drafty and the bathroom fixtures being worn down. Still a great place to stay!

    Very nice hotel located in the heart of downtown Providence. Fleming Steakhouse is located inside as well as a coffee shop. The best part is that there is a 3-4 story mall attached with a FABULOUS food court. It has Thai, Chinese, Sbarros, a cheesesteak place and a few other restaurants. It's a small food court, but you can find something in it. Lastly, there are tons of stores and a movie theatre. Room was clean, comfy and quiet.

    I absolutely enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is older. You can tell by the elevator and the rooms. The rooms in the east tower have huge metal doors inside the rooms. It has been kept up well though. The lobby area is absolutely gorgeous and the front desk staff are so personable and efficient. My flight arrives late and they got me checked in within 10 minutes of arriving to the hotel. It was quiet, but located in an area where there are food and shopping options. There are restaurants inside the hotel and a walkway to a shopping center across the street via a bridge. I would gladly star here again. It was only about 20 minutes by uber from the airport. I enjoyed taking the elevator to the coffee shop every morning. The bath products in the bathroom were also amazing. They smelled so good that I used them instead of what I brought.

    We originally booked this hotel because online said there was a swimming pool, which was for the kids (otherwise we would have went else where). Our arrival was fine. Our check in was great.we arrived around 11:45 check in at 12. We get to our room, and I normally do a spot check which I hope everyone does and the beds were big. Everything was nice at first glance. Then I go to the bathroom ...... I started noticing small things. Which I showed in my pics. What I didn't capture was the peeling of the toilet seat. Even my kids didn't want to sit on there. I was a little disappointed but we already paid for our rooms so why not enjoy the stay Connected to mall was a wonderful experience. We didn't have to cross any streets just walk over the bridge. Very convenient! Our stay was fine. Although I had to call down to the front desk a few times and ask for towels to our room which seemed to take forever. For the price we paid to stay here for 3 nights I feel like things could have been more ...upscale. Paying for early check-in seemed a little pricey too. The cleaning staff was PHENOMENAL! Always ready to help at a moments notice. When I opened my door and they were outside resetting other rooms & cleaning they were great. Shout out to the cleaners on the 12th floor. I could be getting This name wrong but also shout out to DJ (guy with salt and pepper) locs) he also helped us when we first got to our rooms. The kids enjoyed their stay overall. You guys can be the judge of your stay in Just giving my experience. Booking.com gave This place a 4.2. ....il'l give it a 3 at best. Beyond the gilts and glamour of the hotel look deeper

    Good location! Walk to anywhere in Providence

    Just checked out of the Omni Hotel in Providence and had to say location was excellent! Great cocktails and bartenders at Fleming's right next door. The only bad part about our stay was the woman at the front desk who told me to go upstairs to use the restroom instead of unlocking the one on the main floor lobby. WTH! Beyond rude!

    Example of stained furniture

    This hotel is dirty and unkept Furniture is stained (see picture) Rugs visibly unclean All bathroom amenities were used already and half empty 2 night stay they never cleaned our room one day and were nasty when we called down to ask for a cleaning Great location but that is literally all it has going for it .

    Hotel was very nice and the connivence to the convention center is second to none. The control of gymnasts doing flips, hand stands and other skills in the lobby on marble floors is a liability and a nuisance to other guests.

    For a second, I almost felt guilty for my class warfare feelings after visiting Newport. But seeing the comments of spoiled lunatics about the Omni, I'm ready for battle (yes I realize that Newport residents aren't the ones grumbling about the towel racks at this particular hotel). I'm a Super 8 guy (cue "Common People" on the soundtrack) but was delighted at the chance to stay somewhere more glam. Seems prices fluctuate quite a bit, so I probably won't be here if there's a waterfire or convention. The front desk and luggage workers were excellent. The room was spacious. The convenient location is walkable to the train. Wi-fi is solid.

    We choose the Omni in Providence because it's in of fabulous location over looking WaterFire & an easy walk all around the city. We waited online to get dropped off in front of the hotel, lugged our bags inside and then waited on another line to check in. Unfortunately, it was not an express check-in and there was quite a line. We stayed here previously, and it looks like the hotel is being renovated, I didn't recognize the lobby. We took the elevator upstairs and weaved through the hallways until we got to our room. I was pleased that we needed to show our key to go up in the elevator. Our room was a Standard room with a king bed, Keurig, coffee pot, large screen, TV, a refrigerator & not much of a view. The room was a bit worn with chipped furniture and dirty stained worn looking chairs. There was plenty of space to place all of our luggage. We had lots of towels and nest toiletries in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, the water pressure was good, and it did get hot, and our room was quiet. 68° was ad low as our air conditioner went in the room just didn't feel cool enough. I think when we were asleep and not moving the air conditioner went off and the room got very warm. Once we were up and moving around, I got significantly cooler I was happy to have housekeeping come in after the first night and give us fresh towels, toiletries, and coffee items. I had difficulty breathing in this room and couldn't figure out what it was. I took allergy pills and allergy sprays yet still had difficulty breathing. I am allergic to feathers and asked at the desk, our pillows are feathered and will be removed. Flemings is the restaurant that's attached to the hotel with an entrance from the lobby. The gym on the sixth floor was clean and had extensive machines and cardio equipment. The pool was closed for maintenance. The Omni is connected to the Providence Place Mall, convention center and visitor center with access is on the second floor. Morsels is a coffee shop on 2, we used vouchers for complementary drinks.

    Fitted sheets, man. These may be hard to fold, but what's worse is when you toss and turn, only to be awakened by the wrinkled pandemonium that formed beneath you. Overall, the hotel did many things right, but little-ish things made it a less-than-stellar experience. The Omni is not an inexpensive hotel; for the money it costs, I would hope for a slightly better experience. ** Disclaimer: the below are my general observations; I realize not all of these are 100% the fault of the hotel ** In no particular order: The good: + Cleanliness - I found the room, hotel, and bathroom very clean. No issues or errant eyelashes. + Staff - Everyone I've interacted with, from the front desk, bar staff, and housekeeping I encountered in the halls, etc., has been kind, professional, and welcoming. + Location - I found the hotel to be close to dining, transit, and easy on/off the highway. It also seems centrally located when it comes to points of interest. + Safety - I felt the hotel was pretty safe regarding its location and the hotel's common areas. Also, access to guest floors was restricted to guests with a key card. + Room - The room was spacious and had a pleasant layout. I also liked the large writing desk. + The option to have your bed linens changed at any point (and not just the bed made) was a nice touch. The not-so-good: - Noise - even though my room was on the 19th floor, there seemed to be a lot of street noise that made its way into the room. - Bedding - See above on the lack of fitted sheets (otherwise, no issues) - Outlet placement - As a solo traveler, it wasn't a big deal for me, however, only one side of the bed had outlets. With folks charging phones by their bed, having this on both sides would be a no-brainer. - Balcony - The lack of a screen was a little strange. With the weather as lovely as it was, I would have loved to leave the door open for fresh air (with noise, if only during the day), but I would also let bugs in. - Thermostat - While the temperature setting of mid-60s was perfect for me (thus no need to complain), it seemed there was no way to adjust the temperature. Only turn the climate control on or off. - Light Switch - One of the light switches controlled only one of the bedside lamps. The lamp has a switch on it, as well. Switch off? The lamp won't work. Lamp off? The switch won't work! The lamp in the corner, though, is not switch-controlled. - Bathroom - A decided lack of a place to put a bath towel when getting out of the shower. Furthermore, they have a card stating that to conserve, only towels on the floor will be replaced. This is great; however, besides one hook on the door, there is no place to put towels for reuse to dry. - Navigation - While I realize they are in the renovation process and appreciate that the two "towers," plus the attached convention center, do not help, I found myself getting lost often. The Omni has the essentials: a clean and safe place to stay. Further, some things are hard to blame them for. I don't expect them to shut down entirely for construction, and soundproofing that number of rooms would be prohibitively expensive. Yet, minor details could be easily rectified, making my stay more pleasant.

It's so beautiful and historic, but what surprised us most was how welcoming and kind everyone was. We felt right at home. A very special thank you to Jenn, our shuttle bus operator -- she was AMAZING. So friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. She took us everywhere and made getting around so easy and fun. She really made our trip! We packed so much in -- great local eateries, walking around Brown University, wonderful museums, and fantastic vintage shops.

The only issue I had was that I requested a late check-out and the person working the counter really gave me a hard time about it. I understand that late check-outs aren't guaranteed, but her attitude about it was really off. She kept insisting that I need to speak with her manager to approve it, but she never offered to get the manager. I just gave up and decided to speak with someone else the next day. When I came by the next day, the person working let us have the 2pm check-out and the manager did happen to walk by and said it was not an issue at all. And it turns out the girl from the night before did mark me as a 1pm check-out. Honestly, though, this was still an issue because housekeeping came at 1pm to clean the room... The room itself was a room. Clean and standard to Hampton Inn. The bathroom was good, with a nice shower stall and good water pressure but a low flow toilet. My room was in a separate part of the building with only like 6 rooms on the floor. This was nice when it came to hotel noise. However, the windows are very thin and the complaints about car drag racing all night are not incorrect. The location of this hotel was fantastic, an easy walk to many of the sights in the area. One day we decided to take the shuttle and that was fabulous. This hotel is worth staying at for the shuttle alone.

So this will help the review. The Thursday night we stayed was my mother and I, she got a junior suite. It had 2 king size beds, a beautiful living room area with a lot of seating and tv, a huge walk in closet and beautiful decor all around. This was a perfect set up for all the girls to get ready for the wedding the next day, it was spacious and made for beautiful pictures. Some areas do need a little cleaning up, and some decor needed a little tweaking but overall the room was magical. We stayed on the 10th floor and overlooked the city, it was a beautiful view. An issue that I ran into was the doors slam HARD. You'll get used to it but it sounds so loud you can hear everyone leaving their rooms if they don't slowly close the door themselves. Also the toilets when you sit they move, kind of feels like they're broken even though they aren't so be mindful of that. And then being that high up be mindful it takes about 5-10 minutes for the shower water to warm up. It does get extremely hot after that waiting period but if you didn't know you'd think there's no hot water. The check in process both times was pretty smooth. When my husband and I checked in for our stay, the lady who checked us in was pushy and kind of rude. I didn't like her very much, an older taller woman. All the younger people were sweet as pie and very helpful. We stayed In a one bed and this was excessively smaller to what I had the night before of course but we worked with it. I think for the price point for this room it didn't match. Yet again we needed the hotel for pictures and the ambience, and it did its job being able to take pictures in the lobby, the grand staircase the balcony area all of those were worth it. But I would never get that room again , it's not worth it. The decor is beautiful don't get me wrong but we had too much stuff from the wedding that room became extremely tight- fast. The elevators are very small, and creepy. But they did their job. The security personnel were great. They did their job, were great to talk to, and very kind. They even helped us navigate places- when we had questions. They became like our friends because we used them a lot since so many of us were in and out to prep for my wedding adventures. All and all I had a great time.

    Long detailed review. In summary, don't come here. Location great, sure. Service is the worst…read more There is no service. There is no accountability. Please just don't come. Go stay at the Residence Inn across the street! So many more parallel options. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. The sole admirable trait of this hotel is its location. If that means a lot to you, you have numerous other options in the downtown Providence area. Just do yourself a favor and go to the Mariott down the street. The room itself is fine. Nothing spectacular. Very average. It is after all, a Hilton Garden hotel. I am not expecting anything fancy. Where things start to fall apart is basic services. Firstly, we booked a single room with a king bed. The front desk said that they ran out of king beds so had to put us in a 2 double room. There was no notice. We are traveling with a 14 month old so we requested a crib. The main phone number was not working and I could tell customer service was going to be subpar here. To ensure I get the crib I called twice to confirm before arriving. I called once a month out and one more time about a week before. Upon arrival, front desk had no idea what I was talking about so had to inquire the custodial staff to assist. Eventually they did get us a crib. We got in later in the day and were tired so we just decided to not say anything. We checked in Thursday afternoon. On Friday, we requested a clean/room service early afternoon when we were leaving directly to the service staff who was finishing up the room across the hallway from us. Upon returning 3 hours later, nothing. No service. We requested once again for service Friday afternoon while being gone for 3-4 hours. Again, nothing. Yet alas, we tried again on Saturday morning. We left from about 9:30am to 1:30pm letting the front desk know we would be leaving and nothing. At this point, things were getting desperate. We had an event that night so we left at 3:30, letting the front desk know we had not been serviced in 2 nights so to please ensure they service our room. We arrived tired from our event at 8:30pm and to no one's surprise our room had nothing. Our baby needed to sleep at this point and we couldn't have full housekeeping come. So we requested the bedding and towels so we could just make the beds ourselves. That phone call was about 15 minutes ago. I am waiting for my bedding so I can make my bed right now at the hotel. I grew up broke as hell and I've never made my own bed at the roughest of motels next to the highways. If I knew what I was in for, I wish I had left to go to the Residence Inn across the street. Unless you are specifically tied to the Hilton properties (which really doesn't seem to matter we are a gold Hilton member), I would highly recommend considering a different location for your stay. I'm sure I'll get a response here, "oh we're so sorry for your experience." I've read that many times here. You know what, there is never accountability for any of the poor experiences guests have faced here. If you're the actual general manager of this property, please message me directly.

I know on other sites I was a little skeptical to stay here because of the reviews of it being worn and tattered but they've done a revamp of the whole place (and still are) and what they've done so far is grand. The hostesses at the front counter were so warm and welcoming. The front area is spacious and perfect for talking with friends who visit. Great location not too far walking distance from DT and the train and bus station. Highly recommend.
