PROVIDENCE – The second annual Hotel Week RI will take place April 17-30, Visit Rhode Island announced Wednesday.

Visit Rhode Island also said that some participants are offering complimentary amenities as part of the promotion, including dining credit, room upgrades, parking and tickets to local events.

“Rhode Island hotels – and the small businesses that support them – have been hit very hard during the COVID-19 pandemic, so we are very glad to relaunch ‘Hotel Week RI’ this spring,” said Matt Sheaff, R.I. Commerce Corp.’s acting chief marketing officer. “This program, which resulted in 1,955 direct hotel bookings during its inaugural debut, will help our state’s hospitality industry while providing an affordable escape for guests and residents alike.”
