Of course you can paint it but if you apply a layer of stucco it adds a look of texture, create a wall mural that carries on the rooms theme, hang pictures or artwork, add shelves to concrete walls using concrete screws.
What would you think of painting them to look like the outside of a cottage, complete with hand painted flower gardens, butterflies and a lady bug or two for luck?
Get some fabric and use fabric starch to 'glue' it to the wall. (washes off easily).
Paiting is an inexpensive way
Interior or exterior walls?
you can paint them or perhaps do a plaster effect?
Hell, Paint might be the most obvious choice, I love my concrete painted floors and they are holding up very well.
