Enjoy A Scenic Train Ride, Then Spend The Night In A Charming Hotel In Rhode Island

Life can get downright hectic, leaving us little time to relax and maybe pamper ourselves a bit. Fortunately, Rhode Island makes it easy to get away, even for a single evening. That’s all you’ll need, in fact, for a delightful adventure that begins with a scenic train ride. Afterward, if you’re looking for a place to stay in the area, you might consider a cozy night’s sleep at a waterfront hotel in Rhode Island.

Editor’s Note: The train ride and hotel stay are separate experiences and require separate reservations. The Grand Bellevue will begin its rides on April 15th, 2023. Please check the official Grand Bellevue website for the most up-to-date information about rides and experiences. 

Let the rhythm of the train hitting the tracks lull you into relaxation aboard the Grand Bellevue in Portsmouth, which offers a dinner train and a murder mystery train.
