you could end up in a smoking room Reviewed by ExploreOurPlanet on

This hotel only honors reservations made directly through them - I paid in full, IN ADVANCE for a non-smoking room through hotelsdotcom only to be told, upon check in, that because I booked through a "third party" they were only obligated to provide a non-smoking room if one was available. Had to stay in a disgusting, smelly room on a disgusting, smelly floor. No recourse - they had my money and a contractual technicality. BE CAREFUL - your comfort, and preferences, are not guaranteed here.
Pros:
Cons: reservation only honored if booked directly through hotel

Stayed in November/2006. Great service, the restaurant downstairs had above average food. Nice scene. Busy during weekends with weddings. Beds were very comfortable. Starbucks downstairs, computer room, spa, workout room. I would definitly return and recommend. Parking can be tricky, valet is the only way to go.
Pros: history, view, food, location
Cons: parking

I hadn't been back to Providence for 4 years and has the Biltmore drastically changed for the better. Flat screen TV's, Starbuck's, McCormick & Schmick's as well as a very nice gym on the 2nd level. The rooms are huge. What a treat.
Nicely done restoration of an old classic!
