Very glad we chose City Mills, super cute boutique style stay. The restaurant was wonderful. Whoever did the remodel left enough history to give it lots of character. Would definitely stay again.

We had the most incredible stay here! The hotel was so beautiful with the most interesting architecture. Our room had a view of the river, and we had dinner at their restaurant, which was some of the best food ever! Would recommend this location to anyone heading to Columbus and the surrounding areas!

This hotel is in a beautiful area right off the river! It is very pet friendly, which was awesome for our two pups. The daily breakfast was great- the biscuits are heavenly. The few cons we experienced included: a less than warm welcome arrival from the night shift staff, recurring issues with our room key not working, someone vomiting on the second floor bridge, and not realizing there were no washers/dryers onsite.
