Our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Nicely decorated, and clean. The Riverwalk trail is accessible from the hotel, so it was convenient to go for an early morning walk.

Our stay at City Mills was absolutely fantastic! What a beautiful transformation of a historic building. From the moment we checked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The location was perfect and had a breathtaking view of the Chattahoochee. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which had a wide variety of delicious options. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Columbus, Georgia. We will be visiting again solely for the hotel!

Nice hotel, people, and breakfast. It claims to be overlooking a river. We could not see it from our room. We thought the room was too expensive for what it was.

Relaxation

Beautiful hotel with beautiful views of the Chattahoochee River. Peaceful. Quiet. Loved Riverflow Yoga located right in the building. No need to bring your yoga mat, they have everything you need.

I found the room clean and comfortable, the ability to park your vehicle close by in a well-lit lot was also a plus. During this stay the restaurant and bar were open. The Hotel was packed with guests due to two separate University's graduating this weekend. my only complaint would be I like my room very cool and even with the ceiling fan going full blast the thermostat would not let it cool below 73, even thou the set point was 68. I did visit the bar and eat at the Restuarant this stay, and I was not disappointed. This was my fourth stay, and the only Hotel I would trust to stay at in Columbus.

I did not even stay here or check in. I called them and explained there must have been a problem with Expedia sight. Expedia is trying to help. The General Manager was terrible this is an absolute scam when I spoke to him. They charged me full price for 2 night.
