The Rivet house is an interesting find. Redevelopment of a retired factory. Loved the concept and its well done. The location just beyond the junk yard is a buzz kill. The restaurant is excellent! Unfortunately for us the pastry chef was a no show the morning we weee there so no breakfast was offered. Worth a try if you don’t mind the location away from downtown and campus

The room was very nice and clean. Comfortable bedding and towels. They provided a sound machine and ear plugs for the train that runs by but I barely noticed when it did. It was a very pleasent stay.

This uniquely structured hotel provides an interesting experience. It’s tucked away behind a residential area along with a plaza that has about ten suites. It’s tucked between a small industrial building that appeared to be a brewery and a railroad track. Depending upon the position of your room, the train passes by within yards of the hotel. A tiny baggie of ear plugs were placed on the nightstand, and the baggie was stapled to a note about the noise from the train. My room was very compact but had all the necessities. The best things going were the friendly staff, the amazing aroma in the lobby and lounge, and the hotel’s restaurant ($$$).

Loved Harper at the front desk The only feedback I would give is it was fairly loud in the room. I could hear the woman above me on the phone very clearly (like word for word). Once I turned the sound machine on that was provided, it was fine.

A.Maz.Ing. I wouldnt stay anywhere else in Athens. The rooms were lovely. The beds soooo comfortable. I did not want to get up. Dinner was fabulous! The food and service were top notch! Only room for improvement was the tiny breakfast nook. Some of the pastries were mislabeled and they ran out of oat and almond milk.

Sleepless by Elegant in Athens.

It was a very good stay, everything was lovely and I just loss my husband so I needed that one night stay. Services was excellent from the Valet to the Front Desk, and an amazing room. I have one complaint, that train in the middle of the night till morning. Now that I know it is there, I will return with my sisters for the Spa. They want to experience the train. It is relaxing for some.

I LOVED EVERYTHING! From the trains, the ambiance, revitalization of this old Levi's & cloth factory. I will not lie it's a little creepy & unusual at first, but OMG when the sun comes up I fell in love with every single aspect of this place. The original wood & brick work alone would be Astronomical in replacing. 200+ years & still standing with the railroad track nearby? Earthquake proof! You can pick apart something to death with every single little wrong, I hate to know who you are. All that is needed is having basic humanity, understanding, respect for your fellow human beings in that they will never be Perfect beings such as God.But perhaps you are your own perfection God in your eyes. 5 star service & ambiance go somewhere else to have your perfect person waiting upon hand & foot. You want change, revitalization, & that "GREEN FOOTPRINT" in people TRYING to #BeingTheChange? be forgiving, have humility, respect, & try being a cordial/respectful individual instead of tearing every single little thing apart. Be grateful that you have a beautiful roof over your head that is 200+ yrs old & still standing. Only suggestion, have the elevator "works/cogs/old factory parts" Glassed in they are prob extremely beautiful polished up. As well as providing a fascination for people while waiting upon "The Noisy Elevators"

The hotel itself is exceptional. The soaring ceilings, enormous windows, exposed brick, and modern layout all felt like I was in a big city. Everything was clean and pristine! The valet, however, has got to change! Nowhere does it mention that they’re not affiliated with the hotel, so when the 16-year old was more concerned with the spelling of my name for the ticket than he was with assisting me with my bags, it left me with a bad first impression of the hotel. Then, when I called for my car the next morning, I had to pay for it first? Instead of being a part of the room charge! Except for the poor choice to not have the valet as part of the hotel services, the only other concern was the very loud & slow elevator.
