This was our first time staying at the Aloft in Providence, but hopefully not our last. We want to give a special shout-out to Ariel who greeted us so warmly when we first arrived. He was so friendly and helpful, and we were impressed by his professionalism and sincerity! The room was immaculate (thank you to housekeeping), the bed was awesome, and we loved the view from our room. We attend shows at the PPAC regularly throughout the year, and whenever possible, we like to spend the night. The Aloft’s proximity to the theatre is perfect!! We really hope we can return again soon.

The bar and bartenders were amazing! Everything was clean and staff were nice. Both restaurants were closed for renovations untill the new year. So that was the only let down. Otherwise we will be staying here again!

The room was very clean and modern looking, staff is friendly, and location is good. But some of the design decisions are strange. A shower curtain for a bathroom door and a bathroom counter that is far too narrow.
