HotelShark (www.hotelshark.com) Adds Providence, Rhode Island

PALO ALTO, CALIF. (February 23, 2005) – HotelShark, the site that leading British newspaper the Independent calls one of the ten best travel websites in the world, has added a section covering hotels in Providence, Rhode Island.

The first property covered in HotelShark’s Providence section is the Edgewood Manor Bed and Breakfast. Other hotels covered in HotelShark’s Rhode Island pages include properties located in Newport, Block Island, and Westerly.

Providence is the home of prestigious Brown University, as well as of the Rhode Island School of Design. The Edgewood Manor Bed and Breakfast is located on Norwood Avenue.

A city, state, or country is added to HotelShark when necessary to accommodate a new review. A review is published only after a contribution from a traveler has been thoroughly researched and authenticated. HotelShark discards well over half of all incoming contributions as insufficient or invalid.

Neither HotelShark nor its parent SharkPage is affiliated with the Edgewood Manor Bed and Breakfast.
