First-time visitors to Providence will enjoy staying Downtown where many of the city’s biggest attractions can be reached on foot including the RISD Museum and the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. It is also ideal for night owls looking to see what the city has to offer at night.
College Hill and Fox Point, the city’s university neighbourhoods also offer an exciting night out. Plus they are on the more affordable and less commercial side of the city, making them cool and fun places to hang out during the day too.
Those who are eager to check out Providence’s shopping and dining scenes will be excited by what Federal Hill has to offer. From the oyster bars and steakhouses on Atwells Avenue to the fashion-forward boutiques on Westminster Street, you can eat and shop to your heart’s content.
Federal Hill is a refined area of Providence to put your feet up between your city adventures, but if you’re looking to explore more of Rhode Island in style, opt for Newport. Lined with yachts and fine-dining seafood restaurants, this upscale locale will dazzle you with its flashy and luxurious edge.
Immerse in the Eastern Seaboard landscapes on Block Island, a quiet, peaceful, and relaxed vacation spot off the coast of Rhode Island. Enjoy lazy beach days, ambling nature walks, and quaint shops, resorts, and restaurants.
While Providence itself is well-connected with the light rail service, exploring the other parts of Rhode Island would be done best with a car (or even a yacht of your own if you have the cash to spare!)
