The PVD Real Deal & Real Deal Plus
Exclusive funding from the Providence Tourism Improvement District (PTID) helps offset costs for larger groups. These programs target high-value events that generate significant economic impact, ensuring planners can achieve more without compromise.
Pick Your Perk (PYP)
Tailored for small to mid-sized groups, PYP gives planners the power to choose benefits that maximize their budgets, including a day of complimentary breakfast, lunch or coffee breaks for qualifying groups. With weekday arrivals eligible, it’s a powerful tool for strengthening meeting affordability while optimizing hotel utilization.
No matter the group size or segment, we make it easy to do business with us.
