Providence TF Green Airport.
Providence TF Green Airport is a 15 min drive from downtown Providence. While it can more more expensive to fly into Green, it's a smaller airport and much easier to navigate.
UBER OR LYFT
Providence is a great walkable city and you should be able to walk to most of the popular restaurants and bars from your downtown hotel. The best thing about Rhode Island being the smallest state is that everything is 10 - 15 minutes away. We recommend you utilize Uber and Lyft during your stay.
We love living in Rhode Island! There's so much to see and do. Here are a few guides of restaurants, bars, and attractions for your time in Rhode Island. Our favorites include: Troop (restaurant), Riff Raff (bookstore bar), Rodger Williams Zoo, and Industrious Spirit Company (distillery).
