Playful Market Square boutique stay

The Oliver Hotel pairs period architectural details with a contemporary color palette and mid-century modern furnishings for a look that feels polished, not precious. The lobby sets the tone with eclectic artwork, a light-filled spiral staircase, and a secret passage for a little extra downtown intrigue.

We had a wonderful stay at The Oliver Hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, making us feel right at home. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and well-appointed, which made for a relaxing stay. One of the highlights was discovering the hidden speakeasy tucked inside the hotel. It was such a fun and unexpected surprise, adding a unique touch to the overall experience. If you're looking for a hotel with charm, excellent service, and a little something extra, The Oliver Hotel is definitely worth a visit. We would happily stay here again!

A lovely place with terrific decor and atmosphere. It was an ideal location for my conference, too. The desk person was really friendly, even putting me in a suite because of a hiccup with my check in. Definitely recommend this place!

Beautiful hotel, close to a great courtyard with lots of restaurants and shops. A block from downtown. HOWEVER, this place is so unique, we wanted to just hang out in the room, lobby, and we had dinner in The Royal which did not disappoint. I recommend the Chilean Sea Bass.
