Pros +
- The location is fantastic and the lobby is beautiful. I also enjoy the speakeasy.
- Very cute, funky, and well done decor and atmosphere. Location was fantastic for downtown exploration. The room was great, comfortable, stylish and quiet. Fun that they had mints, candy, and matchbooks for guests throughout the hotel. The front desk attendant was great in helping check-in and providing restaurant suggestions.
- Everything! The property history, beautiful renovation, cocktails and dining experience, comfort, location and always the warm welcome from the stellar staffing.
Cons -
- When I arrived at my room, the heat was set to 80°, the bathroom floor was dirty and other surfaces has visible dust & hair. Finally they moved me to another room at the same price point. It was also over 80° and they forgot to give me keys to the room.
- I have no complaints!
- Looked junkie a times (bikes by stairwell)

Great Hotel for a downtown getaway Staff was excellent Location was perfect and Valet parking was a good choice it was safe and reliable. We had a very large room and it was comfortable.
Great location. Super staff. Unique hotel and bar.
The bath towels
Great boutique hotel and location was amazing!
Loved pretty much everything. Carpet in our room had a few stains, but otherwise super clean and big room!
disappointent
Its old and dirty and dark
Walking distance to everything , enjoyed the bar. Loved the decor
The only complaint was the towels , they were rough and stiff .
I love the location. Very clean and great vibe. An art deco decor.
The pillows were to puffy for my liking.

The Oliver Hotel was such a great place to stay in Knoxville. It has a great location, was clean and had a lot of charm. The decor and art work was adorable. The front desk person Chris was so helpful and responsive and gave us great suggestions where to eat and where to go in walking distance. He recommended the Oliver Royale restaurant attached to the hotel and it was so good we ate there both nights of our stay. He also recommended the attached Speakeasy bar, which was fun.
There were no negatives. A grab bar in the bathtub would be helpful for safety.
Room service was excellent; staff was friendly and helpful at every turn. We loved the location, right inside Market Square. Hotel was quiet, and area felt quite safe.
Spacious rooms, great location, great roomService. Bars are great
The front staff were awesome and helped with whatever we needed. We had an issue with our shower but the staff did a great job accommodating. Would certainly stay here again!
The location was downtown, which made it convenient to walk to places. I was offered a glass of champagne at check-in. The hotel had a "Great Gatsby" feel.
Having to park a block away in a parking garage.
We enjoyed staying at this unique boutique hotel while visiting our son at UTK. The staff is attentive and helpful. We were offered champagne upon check in! The location is excellent - right in Market Square with many shops and restaurants nearby. Our corner room was huge but located right near the housekeeping closet so a bit noisy in the morning. The hotel was clean, but our room could’ve used new carpeting. We had fun in the speakeasy bar watching the artistry of the bartender and enjoying her beautiful and delicious cocktails. We would stay at The Oliver again!
I really loved the location. It was close to everything that we wanted to do. The ambiance of the hotel was quite nice.
Check-in was a bit wonky. We arrived around 4:30 and our room was not ready. I will say the gentleman working the front desk is amazing at his job. He was able to diffuse the situation with everyone. I also wish with it being 2025 that hotels had an electronic method for tips. This one did not seem to have that option.
Fab location and Royale restaurant was terrific Great area for walking. We will stay there again.
Room was nice but a bit small, bright at night due to flood lights outside illuminating the front of the hotel. Bathroom spacious and attractive but needed a bit of attention (towel bar loose). AMini breakfast would have been nice.
