Renaissance Providence Hotel Thanks Local Educators with the ‘Best in Class’ Half-Price Rate

Educators sometimes give their students a break and now they can get one of their own. Through its ‘Best in Class’ school partnership program, the Renaissance Providence Hotel is offering active and retired teachers and administrators 50 percent off average room rates.
This half-off reduction, which is good through December 30, 2009, allows educators to experience the grandeur and luxury offered by this historic hotel. Affiliated with the Marriott portfolio of branded luxury hotels, the Renaissance Providence Hotel has been recognized as a masterpiece of Neo-Classical architecture and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

“Teachers and administrators invest their lives in building our nation’s future through our children,” said Stephen Nass, director of sales and marketing for the Renaissance Providence Hotel. “At one point, most of us were positively influenced by a teacher and it is an honor to provide an opportunity for these educators to enjoy some time off at a real discount. This is our way to say thank you to our teachers who provide such an admirable, lasting service.”

Celebrating the arts throughout, the Renaissance Providence Hotel features amenities meant to inspire the artist within, such as wired and wireless Internet access, lavish guestrooms, luxurious bedding, a 24-hour fitness center and a full-service lounge. The hotel is located in the heart of the capitol district in downtown Providence – the cornerstone of Avenue of the Arts and directly across from the Rhode Island State House.
