The district, listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1984, includes 900 acres and 112 buildings.

Superior rooms include king or queen beds with luxury linens, while Junior Suites feature separate living areas with pull-out sofas. The Premier Suite has floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the courtyard or Grace Episcopal Church, a kitchen, and a whirlpool tub.

The restaurant overlooks Grace Park and is steps from the Providence Performing Arts Center and Trinity Repertory Company.
