    The Oliver is a classic boutique hotel offering an exceptional level of service and quality. The location for downtown Knoxville can't be beat. It's adjacent to market square where are there so many different activities, restaurants, and shops.

    Had a very enjoyable and pleasant 2 night stay at the Oliver Royale. Enjoyed the market square, Cafe 4, The Kennedy, Xul Brewing, and A Dopo Pizza are must stops. The beautiful downtown Shoppes and hidden parks are a must see!!!

    Beautiful property well maintained. I didn’t like the noise off of Market Square when we were trying to sleep.

    The room itself was a genuine highlight. The layout felt personal and warm rather than sterile, which sets it apart from most hotel rooms. The check-in and check-out process needs attention. No one was at the desk on either occasion. I had to wait to check in, and at check-out there was no one available at all — I simply left my key, though I had wanted to request a printed receipt. Breakfast was the most frustrating part of the stay. On Tuesday evening I called the front desk to place a breakfast order. The associate told me breakfast wasn't available on weekdays. I pointed out that the website states breakfast begins at 7:00 a.m. After three separate phone calls, she confirmed that breakfast was in fact available to hotel guests, and I placed an order for 7:00 a.m. At 7:00 the next morning, no breakfast arrived. I waited until 7:40 and called the front desk again. The gentleman explained that the cook doesn't arrive until 7:30 — which raises the question of why the website advertises a 7:00 a.m. start. He said he would check and call me back, but never did. My breakfast finally arrived at 7:45, and I wasn't able to eat it because I had to leave for an 8:00 a.m. meeting. The cost was $45 plus a $7 delivery fee for food that arrived 45 minutes late.

    Fantastic small hotel, in a perfect location in downtown Knoxville. This is the only place I would want to stay on retur

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    First receptionist not very good, Did not program my room keys well. And he left front desk w/o an attendant. After waiting in lobby, Chris showed up and took care of his problem. Got into my room and he delivered a bottle 🍾 of champagne. Additionally hotel had bath salts set out for a soak. Wonderful stay, really appreciate the southern hospitality! Will stay here anytime I'm in Knoxville.

    Second time staying here, although it would be more if it were available at other times. Excellent staff, room size and layout superb, super clean, location can’t be beat. Both times friendliest staff ever. We are already plotting a time to return.
