The Oliver Hotel is a charming step back in time with modern conveniences. We loved the personal and friendly nature of the staff. The choices for local food was great, especially the Creperie. The small shops close by made for a fun shopping experience. Driving back and forth to UT was a breeze. The only negative was that the Market park was unwalkable in the evening due to homeless individuals.

The location is outstanding. Walkable to numerous dining and entertainment options. The staff was very friendly and very helpful! The rooms are unique and aesthetically pleasing. The hotel had just updated the phone system so there was a small issue but the staff assured us they were working to resolve it. We will return for a future stay.

Very unique Hotel. Room was huge. Bathroom and shower very spacious . Room was quiet and within walking distance of shops and plenty of places to eat as well as venues. Room was cold and you could adjust the temp on the A/C if needed and this is huge now days as most hotels lock the thermostat. Worth the price and the staff were amazing , friendly and very accommodating. Would most definitely stay here again.
