The Best Bed & Breakfast Ever
Reviewed By wcdiamondlakeThis was the best bed & breakfast I have ever stayed at. The rooms were beautiful in this old mansion. We were fortunate to get the Tower Room which I believe is the honeymoon suite. Booked this as a surprise for my wife on our 45th anniversary. It was the best choice ever. Paul is the most gracious host ever. The breakfasts which were served were nothing short of amazing. If staying in Galena, this is the place to be. Thank you so much Cloran for an unforgettable few days.
3. Aldrich Guest House
Overall Ratings
5 based on 938 reviews
With over 50 years of combined experience in the hospitality/service industry between the two of us, we've been able to create a place where you can relax and be yourself without judgement. We break the stereotype when it comes to bed and breakfasts - no crazy wallpaper, baby dolls, or doilies, and definitely no pretension! What you will find is fresh decor that while elegant is still relaxing, award-winning homemade food, and service that is intuitive and personalized yet laid back and unobtrusive. We believe that just because we provide a beautiful place to stay doesn't mean we have to be hoity toity. Aldrich Guest House is also the first and only cannabis friendly bed and breakfast in Illinois! We have built a separate 'tiny house' for guests to consume in while they're here making sure that everyone can enjoy their stay in whatever way they want while still respecting each other. You deserve a break - relax, unwind, and be yourself at Aldrich Guest House! Robert and Douglas, Innkeepers/Owners
Fabulous, Friendly, and Fun
Reviewed By sheilamO3395GXThe Aldrich Guest House is fantastic! We had a three-day stay in May and enjoyed every moment. 1. The historic (and lovingly restored) house is comfortable and conveniently located (an easy 6-7 minute walk to downtown shopping and restaurants). Our room was cozy and inviting. 2. The breakfasts were gourmet all the way - delicious and beautifully presented! 3. The best part of the experience? The proprietors! Robert and Douglas are the best hosts you could hope for - fun, engaging, attentive, and knowledgeable. We will be back!

Relaxing stay in Galena
Reviewed By JenniferLuanneGreat service and only 5 minutes from downtown. This is a modern Inn, not an old house. Clean. Fireplace. Fridge. Nice breakfast (hard-boiled eggs, bagels, yogurt). We make sure we get a room with a Hot Tub. Ramona and her staff (Alfredo and wife) are always helpful. Highly Recommend!!

Great people and a nice place to stay!
Reviewed By GandNadventuresWe felt right at home staying with Jan and Lorraine. They were sweet and very helpful with anything we were looking for. We stayed in the Victorian room which was nice although a little small. The house was beautiful and I really enjoyed looking at all of the antiques and artwork. It was pretty old-fashioned which I didn't mind, but which might turn off other travelers. The breakfast was delicious and our hosts were very sensitive to food allergies etc. when preparing our meal. I will definitely be staying here again when we return to Galena!

Cute BnB with good location and parking in downtown Galena
Reviewed By ChiTownGirlGetsOutThe home was build in the late 1800s and is filled with charming details, which are kept very clean. There is a pool table for guests to play and a well stocked library with games, music and books. Communication was good and prompt, the host offered wine and cheese at 5pm and cookies at 8:30pm. Coffee was available at 7:30am and breakfast was served at 9. It was nice to awake to the smell of coffee and bacon! Our room had a gas fireplace in it with a timer which was nice - just turn the knob and there is your fire. there was a TV in the corner. The bathroom was modern and had a nice supply of soap/shampoo etc. There is off street parking in the rear of the building and a lovely gazebo in the front, located just in front of the huge porch - I'm sure it is nice in the summer months. Town is about a 7 minute walk away. The bedding was comfortable however, I didn't love the spring mattress, I'm not used to that type. Otherwise, the experience was lovely. The host is fully vaccinated and she said mask wearing was our choice.

Horrible
Reviewed By lwinczewskiWe seldom share our feelings about a stay but felt a responsibility to do so now. With great anticipation we stayed at the Galena Inn (formerly the Victorian Mansion) which was followed by great disappointment. We picked this B&B because our trip was last minute, it's proximity to Main St., and because of the mostly positive reviews. We stayed in the Lincoln Room. Two nights, 3/24-25/22, totaling $466.20. We ended up only staying one night. We were warned that once paid, there would be no refund. Yes, we were expecting the “old world experience” (Otherwise why would you stay here?) but at this rate we did not expect there to be: several small bugs by the window floor (I can offer pictures), under the bed and behind the frame is very dirty, extreme coldness as the only heat source was from an ineffective little floor heater which we set at the highest setting (there are radiant heaters in the room and bathroom but they were not working), the bed was firm, the pillows were of very poor quality, and there was not one cup for drinking. Also, for varying reasons, we are use to eating breakfast at 7:00 am therefore we were unable to take advantage of the “modified breakfast”; we were unsure what this meant as all online searches listed the Galena Inn as offering a “full breakfast”. This Modified breakfast is only provided from 9:00-10:00 am! Having no one representing the Inn outside of “normal hours” is very unsettling as well. Very disappointed.
8. Avery on Prospect Hill Guest House Bed and Breakfast

The historic Avery on Prospect Hill Guest House Bed and Breakfast, built in 1848, provides a tranquil and warm setting for your overnight or weekend stay. It is your home away from home. Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea by sitting and relaxing on the large front porch or in the gazebo. Our spacious inn is decorated with a mixture of new and old. Each guest room has a private bath with a King or Queen size bed and all the amenities. A hearty breakfast, access to the Candy Bar and coffee/tea are available daily. We are in walking distance to downtown so you can park your car and enjoy the comfortable block stroll to Main Street shopping, wonderful restaurants and interesting sites. Come enjoy yourself at the Avery, "your home away from home".
Very well done and run historic 1848 B&B.
Reviewed By 67allenkWe decided to stick somewhat closer to home for our 32nd Anniversary getaway trip and the Avery and her new(er) Innkeepers,the warm and friendly Bob and his wife Cherish, did not disappoint. Rooms were immaculate,full breakfast delicious as well as fresh baked cookies in the afternoon. We felt like family. Thank you Bob & Cherish,we will be back soon!

Would not recommend
Reviewed By Eross62488Talk about rude ownership. I would rather stay in the dumpster than stay here. For such a beautiful town this decrepit building matches the owners attitudes. Photos make the rooms look way better than they actually are.
