Rivet House

Genuinely one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The room, the restaurant, and the attention to detail were next to none. They knew I was coming to celebrate an occasion (a heart surgery and birthday) and Cara decked out my room, got me welcome gifts personalized to me, and the Olio staff had a custom menu for me, gave me a card signed by the entire staff, and a dessert. They honestly could not have made my stay any better. I will absolutely be spending every occasion here - even sending my mom for her birthday this week. Best hotel, food, and ambiance in Athens.

This building is very nice and a cool looking. Restaurant is fantasic. Bar was nice - great food and drinks. The rooms a very very small. It’s right by a railroad track that will blow past the provided noise maker multiple times a night. The technology in the room is really lacking. No steaming options - all satellite that was lagging and glitching the entire time. You’re paying for a cool look and feel here not for any real amenities - it’s very very expensive for what you get. This is ritz Carlton money for like - I don’t know - aloft amenities. But it looks very cool and the people are nice.

I recently stayed at Rivet House and it struck me as one of those rare places that gets “ambience, comfort, and style” just right. Walking in, you can sense that this isn’t your typical hotel — the building itself has history (it used to be a denim mill), and that heritage shows in the exposed brick, wood beams, and the tasteful way they’ve blended old and new. The design gives it that “industrial-chic meets cozy retreat” vibe — modern and polished, yet warm and inviting rather than cold or overly formal. The room felt like a quiet little haven: clean, thoughtfully designed, with lots of light and a relaxed layout that helped me unwind after a long day. The overall feeling was calm without being boring — a good balance between upscale and laid-back. One of the highlights for me was the s

We stayed here during the ice storm because I was very pregnant and afraid we wouldn’t be able to get to the hospital if we needed to. The staff was so nice, the valet jumped to help with all our bags and parking and making sure I didn’t slip on the ice, front desk people were so nice and left us a sweet baby gift in the room. We sat at the bar and had dinner Saturday night which was delicious and we talked with the bar tender who was very friendly. Sunday the restaurant was closed because of the weather and staff was really nice helping us get coffee and pastries and making us hot water to make the food we brought. The room was beautiful and very comfortable to wait out the storm. The staff was what really made our stay though. And luckily we did not have to go to the hospital in the stor

Great stay at Rivet house, isn’t walkable to downtown Athens but comfortable hotel. Hotel and restaurant have great boutique meets industrial vibe, with well stocked bar. For the most part the staff was friendly and had good service. The restaurant Osteria Olio was sooo good! Our waiter Zach did such a great job with recommendations and service. Chef Braeden’s Fusilli Con Salsiccia was some of the best pasta I have ever had! If in Athens this gem of a hotel and restaurant are a MUST. We will be back!
