My GF and I stayed there last weekend 1/16/10. It's very clean and the staff is great. Its a very short walk to the Providence Place Mall and everything downtown. The pictures of the rooms speak for themselves. We will stay here again.

For our son's June wedding, we rented the entire Mowry House and most of the Christopher Dodge House- the sister inn to accommodate out of town family and friends. Mr. Parker, the inn keeper was very accommodating with such a large group. We had a Clambake catered on the property, which Mr. Parker assisted us in finding. They allowed a tent to be set up on the lawn since we were the only guests. He personally came to the house to welcome us and help with any odds and ends we needed. Kathy at front desk happily spent a lot of time with our changes and always kept me up to date with details. Alyan served us wonderful, homemade breakfasts each morning. We loved the location as we could walk to the mall and the river area with ease. The price seemed like a bargain for the quality and service we received. All 50 of us who stayed at Mowry and the Christopher Dodge would Highly recommend them!!

The Inn and all of the rooms have been lovingly restored with historic details intact and are spacious, with the most comfortable beds you will ever sleep in. We always enjoy the gracious staff and the creative breakfasts here.......you will have a wonderful experience. D. Sosebee

You are doing yourself a disservice if you stay anywhere in Providence other than the Christopher Dodge House. My gf and I stayed there this past weekend in hopes of finding relaxation and romance. The CDH exceeded our expectations in every way possible. The staff was attentive and friendly. The room was cozy and inviting with a canopy bed and fireplace. The entire house is comfortable and romantic. They are centrally located, with many many things to do within a short distance. I will highly recommend the CDH to any and everyone passing thru Providence RI. Thank you thank you CDH!!!

Our room was clean. It had 1 king bed and 1 twin bed. The furnishings are nice and homey,bathroom is a decent size.We had a room that faced the hwy, which is just a stones throw from the Inn, so don't expect your room to be quiet. The Inn is very nicely furnished with what appears to be reproduction period furniture. They did not do a good job on the floor or stairway. They put a Mulberry color in all the hallways throughout then a Dark Blue in our room. They did either refinish or put in new wood in the dining room and common room. The old main stairway used to be painted white but they stripped and refinished the treads, bannister and spindels. The stain is a shiny red color, it is quite ugly. They put a runner all the way up the stairs but they chose a blue design, which of course clashes with the Mulberry carpet and red wood on the stairs. For breakfast there was a buffet set up with 1 kind of cereal, bowl of mixed fruit, coffee pound cake, english muffins, bagels, coffee, juice and water. We were then served a egg & herb frittata and bacon. There is 1 thing that we found strange, they have the kitchen in the same room as the laundry, doesn't seem like that could be too sanitary. Since the Inn is run by staff the Office is located in the basement/main level and we can hear them down there when we are on the 1st floor but we never see them. They did say if we needed anything we were welcome to come down and ask. We did feel deceived by their website, it says "The Inns (they have a sister Inn a block over) are convenient to Downtown, Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design, Johnson & Wales, Providence Place Mall and Waterplace Park; all are within walking distance. " NOT, the mall for example is 6.34 miles . I don't really say that's "walking distance". The Inns are not in good areas, we were several blocks over (in our car thankfully), and there was a lot of graffiti and scary people wandering around.

A weekend in Providence was made even more special, on this anniversary weekend, by staying at the Christopher Dodge House. Our room was beautiful with its warm cozy fire and wonderful bed. We had home-baked goodies on hand and the most pleasant staff to see to our needs! Perfect!!
