9.8/10 Exceptional! (1,183 reviews)
What a charming, quiet, hotel with a riverview, and riverwalk which is on the property. We stayed in a room with a riverview which is a must. We were there for the Vandy/Auburn game: 9/25-27. Our room, on the 3rd floor was a little smelly when we first arrived because of the humidity. It's near a river, and it's an old brick grain mill from the 19th century.
Lower the temperature on the AC and turn up both the AC fan and the ceiling fan and the smell will go away.
There's something homey about a framed picture of a dog hanging in the bathroom. It's a nice touch.
Special shout out to Miss Brandi (front desk) who helped with showing us around, trouble shooting our room keys, and helping my husband make an Uber reservation.
Another shout out to Jacob, a superior waiter in the Mills House restaurant (the wedge salad, strawberry shortcake as well as the rib-eye pasta are recommended, plus the Fararri-something Chardonnay.)
The lady who runs around in the breakfast room, which scores a 5 by the way, making certain that there is enough food and everything else.
The riverwalk can keep you busy enough. Bring a fishing pole if you have extra time--there are bass and other fish in the river. You must have a meal at the Mill House Restaurant.
All in all, this hotel is one of the better stays we've had anywhere and the staff is what makes the place a standout hotel. Kudos to the manager who hired them.
