If I could give City Mills more than 5 stars I would! Everything is phenomenal; the staff, the service, the room, and the atmosphere. It’s definitely somewhere we’ll stay again if we’re in the Columbus area.

As a vegetarian and pescatarian, I just wish there had been a few more breakfast options to choose from. Other than that, everything was wonderful! Parking was super easy, and every single staff member we met was so kind and genuinely helpful. The hotel was exactly what I was hoping for when I stumbled across it. The outdoor seating was beautiful — such a peaceful spot to sit and watch the water. If I’m ever back in Columbus, City Mill will definitely be my first choice!

My only complaint was food was mediocre at breakfast although coffee was outstanding. Our bed was quite firm more so than we like.

Everything about my stay here was great. The staff was excellent. The property was beautiful. I loved the charm and history surrounding the building. Our room was clean, and the decor was very nice. Fluffy towels, premium toiletries, soft comfortable bedding, hot delicious breakfast were some of the things I greatly enjoyed. If I’m ever in the Columbus area again I will definitely be back.

Nice spot. Friendly staff. Only negative is a bit of a mildew smell and bar over looking the river isn’t happening. But accommodation wise, it was wonderful.
