Quaint little boutique hotel in downtown Knoxville. The Oliver restaurant was an amazing find, too. The only thing that I didn’t care for was the lack of free and available parking around the hotel. The best option for self park was around the corner on the opposite side of the block.

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.
