The Westin Providence Guest Reviews
I thought the location was terrific! I had a clear shot of the Capitol Building from my window. The hotel is also adjacent to a cool mall, which came in handy for me. The lobby is nice, but the room itself left a little to be desired. The lounge chair in my room was all stained up and just looked filthy; I didn't want to sit in it. The clock, telephone and lamp were a bit on the dusty side, and the top sheet on my bed had a nasty looking stain on it. Also, my morning breakfast tray was still by my door when I returned to my room at 9pm. I notified the front desk and someone came for it right away. Room service was prompt, which is nice, and the food was good. Parking was $18 for each overnight; the hotel does not validate. Parking would have been more had I needed to come and go throughout the day. The staff was nice and friendly, but when my lost luggage arrived at the hotel, I had to go downstairs to pick it up from the front desk; I thought that was a little unusual. Overall, it’s a good place to stay for the money, but I did get a good rate. I'm probably making it sound worse than it was, because overall I enjoyed my stay there. What I've mentioned here are just some things that my be red flags for some travellers.

checked in for a long weekend stay. staff was great and the service was good. parking was a little strange. $26 to valet with unlimited access and $18 to self park but if you wanna come and go its $10 each time, so if you leave once you end up paying more than valet. guess its some kind of way of creating jobs at the hotel, but it was no big deal as the valet service is great and extreamly fast at getting your car ready for you. location was excellent and the beds were amazing. only place the service was not so great was in the lounge/bar restaurant on the second floor... the name escapes me as it was a extreamly forgetable experience but its the only such place on the second floor. bottom line good deal, good location and would certainly go back.

Courteous staff, good service. Acceptable cleanliness. Odd layout. Bizarre entry to whirlpool which is set in a seedy, Turkish bath-type crowded environment. Industrial views. Fun bridge to mall to keep you entertained.

Bed - Stellar (Heavenly Beds do rule.)Shower - OK, though the Heavenly shower isn't as good as the bed. I'm glad I'm only 5'9" and not any taller. The shower still was pretty low on me.Climate control - good, though the A/C was quite loud.Refrigerator - There wasn't really one. There was this strange, empty mini-bar only thing under the TV that was rather gross, and hadn't been cleaned in a while and had dried liquid stains in it.TV - While the TV was a nice, large flatscreen, the channels weren't great. What kind of hotel doesn't have Versus? I was unable to watch the final stages of the Tour de France, which, had I known about ahead of time, would have been a deal killer for me for this particualr hotel. Seriously.Room safe - was present in the closet, but was inoperable and not usable. That didn't make me feel too secure about leaving anything valuable in my room.Location - Phenomenally good.Parking - TERRIBLE. You had to either choose valet parking at an exorbitant $26/night or self-park for $18/night. While it was in an attached garage, I would not consider this close. Had this been disclosed with my reservation, this probably also would have been a deal killer for me for this particular hotel.Fitness Center - Great, with good cardio and weight equipment. Though it would have been nice had it stayed open after 7pm on Sunday. Strange Sunday hours.Spa - did not use.Hotel restaurants - too pricey for Providence to even consider going to. Yes, that ridiculous.Overall - a nice hotel for a decent value given the special rate I got [...], but I left wishing I would have had just as good or better of an experience at another downtown hotel. I'd go back, but only if I could get the same kind of deal on a nightly rate again.
