At Christopher Dodge House, travelers highlight a charming historic B&B with friendly service, excellent breakfasts, and clean, comfortable, often spacious rooms, complemented by convenient parking and a location close to downtown sights, restaurants, and the State House.
Some guests noted traffic or street noise given its proximity to highways and downtown, and the property has many stairs with no elevator. Many found it easy to reach attractions on foot, though perceptions of walking at night varied, and occasional noise was reported for rooms near entrances. Expect a comfortable, personable stay in a historic setting.

This b&b was lovely. The staff was so welcoming and the rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing and they had a drink station set up and fully stocked for use all day along with some games and books you could borrow. There were a few eating options within a block or so and several sites and different neighborhoods were within walking distance. We only stayed one night, but I wish we had stayed longer.

This B&B was amazing on every level. The room was spacious with a stunning view of the capitol building. The parking was included and much easier than other downtown hotels which require valet and garage parking. The included breakfasts were excellent and different every day with two choices of entrées that were restaurant quality. A common room with complementary refreshments was a cozy and welcoming and much appreciated touch. All staff were friendly and accommodating and the check-in and checkout process was easy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Location was perfect for accessing downtown Providence. The convention center and a plethora of restaurants are in walking distance. Our room was spacious, clean, and convenient. We had access to everything we could ask for or need. The service and food were great, and there was ample space for parking our car. Would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Providence.

This property was full of charm with wide plank wood floors and comfy bedding. The breakfast was delicious and staff was kind and welcoming. Plenty of parking, which is needed, as you’re up by the highway.

There was a great mix of historic and modern in this house. I felt like I was stepping back in time but I still had all the modern comforts. Loved the amount of space in our bedroom, great water pressure and hot water. The bed was comfortable and the staff was so helpful. The breakfast was well portioned and delicious. There was cold water and tea and other small amenities available, which was a nice touch. The road noise was a bit loud but I got used to it and the A/C helped mask it. I would stay here again and again! Highly recommend it

We loved our stay here! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Our room was beautiful, comfortable, clean, and spacious. A perfect mix of historical charm and modern amenities. So many thoughtful details were considered throughout our stay such as fresh baked cookies at check in a lovely coffee/tea/snack area and newspapers available in the morning. Breakfast was great and parking was free and convenient. We only stayed one night as we were in town for a concert, but would definitely return and highly recommend. Thank you!

Beautiful bed and breakfast. A wonderful change from hotel living. Careful, narrow stairs and no elevator, but if you are good with that, an excellent choice within walking distance to Brown.

Overall, this place is meh. My wife and I were greeted by a young lady who was pleasant enough but disheveled and didn’t make eye contact; not a good first impression. The room appeared clean but it took about two minutes for the water in the bathroom to turn warm, the sink had a distinct smell of sewerage, and the shower had a very slow drain. Also, the furniture was old and cheap and the chairs have a musty odor. Suffice it to say our room has not seen a plumber in a while and is in desperate need of a makeover. The breakfast in the morning was served by a pleasant young lady but it was unpalatable. The owners have clearly stopped caring and just let this place go. Besides, there is nothing within walking distance. Don’t bother. Just stay in a hotel.

Everything was great except the location of our room, which unfortunately was just how it shook out. If I reserved with them again, I would ask for an upper floor room. Our room was right next to the lower main entrance, which was also the entrance closest to the office. We could hear each conversation that happened there, as well as the front door opening and closing. Luckily it didn’t happen when we were sleeping, but we were sort of still waking up in the morning when a conversation was happening right outside our door around 8am on a Saturday.

This is a gorgeous house! It's also in a cute neighborhood with many beautiful houses. The breakfast was delicious. The ladies who served breakfast were lovely. The only downside was that the house is very close to the freeway and there is quite a bit of road noise. Sine we are from a big city, it did not bother us. However, if you are from a suburb or the country, you might want to bring earplugs to help you sleep at night.

Our room was spacious, clean, and convenient. We had access to everything we could ask for or need. The service and food were great, and there was ample space for parking our car. Would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Providence.

This property was full of charm with wide plank wood floors and comfy bedding. The breakfast was delicious and staff was kind and welcoming. Plenty of parking, which is needed, as you’re up by the highway.

A very unique experience in an old house. Room was clean, staff friendly, and the breakfasts were excellent. The common room and breakfast allowed us to interact with other guests. Close enough to walk to downtown.

This B&B was exactly what I was looking for. The perfect combination between comfort and historical charm. The property is well maintained, clean and convenient to the main historical sites. I didn’t have a car and I walked around safely. Providence is a little gem! Happy I chose it for my weekend getaway.

Beautiful room! The immediate area is a quaint neighborhood with a coffee shop next door, but it is too far to walk downtown; we took an Uber back at night because even during the day, we felt a bit unsafe walking past the State House and along the river before getting to RISD. In the future I would definitely drive and park downtown instead. Breakfast was the best I've had in a B&B! The check-in process was slightly confusing: you need to only ring the doorbell once and then just trust that they have heard you and are on their way, even though you may have to wait a minute (and you wont hear sound or anything letting you know that you rang the doorbell successfully).

Beautiful bed and breakfast. A wonderful change from hotel living. Careful, narrow stairs and no elevator, but if you are good with that, an excellent choice within walking distance to Brown.

This b&b was lovely. The staff was so welcoming and the rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing and they had a drink station set up and fully stocked for use all day along with some games and books you could borrow. There were a few eating options within a block or so and several sites and different neighborhoods were within walking distance. We only stayed one night, but I wish we had stayed longer.

This B&B was amazing on every level. The room was spacious with a stunning view of the capitol building. The parking was included and much easier than other downtown hotels which require valet and garage parking. The included breakfasts were excellent and different every day with two choices of entrées that were restaurant quality. A common room with complementary refreshments was a cozy and welcoming and much appreciated touch. All staff were friendly and accommodating and the check-in and checkout process was easy.

Overall, this place is meh. My wife and I were greeted by a young lady who was pleasant enough but disheveled and didn’t make eye contact; not a good first impression. The room appeared clean but it took about two minutes for the water in the bathroom to turn warm, the sink had a distinct smell of sewerage, and the shower had a very slow drain. Also, the furniture was old and cheap and the chairs have a musty odor. Suffice it to say our room has not seen a plumber in a while and is in desperate need of a makeover. The breakfast in the morning was served by a pleasant young lady but it was unpalatable. The owners have clearly stopped caring and just let this place go. Besides, there is nothing within walking distance. Don’t bother. Just stay in a hotel.

I spent two nights at CDH and everything from checking in to checking out was very easy. The food for breakfast was excellent and quickly served. The room I had was good sized and was very clean. I would recommend this B&B for any trip to the Providence RI area.

Lovely homely b&b with a personal touch. Large room, ample breakfast, pleasant staff. The communal complimentary coffee lounge was an excellent addition. Only ‘negative’ is the highway which runs alongside, which is noisy but unavoidable.
