Our room at Hotel Galena was just as advertised! Nate was welcoming and kind and helpful! He made us feel right at home. I would highly recommend Hotel Galena and we will definitely return!
We stayed in Suite #10 and the room was great! Very clean and well put together, the room had amazing amenities. Staff were very courteous, Nate was a fantastic host!!
Nate was great at check in. He was very pleasant & extremely helpful!
Our room was very nice, quite roomy & clean. Nice location.
We will definitely stay here again.
A great stay! Newly renovated bathroom and clean room, though the bedroom could use some upkeep. Very close to Main Street, can walk everywhere and leave the car.
Room was clean, staff was friendly and exceptional. Little breakfast room was quaint, offered many options for a quick breakfast. It was nice to talk with the other guests and manager there. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again plus it’s dog friendly! Thank you for a nice stay.

Staff-helpful from the moment of arrival. Room had everything we needed.
This was the second time that I stayed at Hotel Galena. I was in town with my wife, we visited for Galena's Whiskey Weekend. We both really enjoyed the convenience and affordability of the hotel. It's quaint space gives a bed and breakfast feel, with the privacy of a small hotel. The rooms are clean and fresh, with a nod to Galena's rich history. The continental breakfast is satisfying with biscuits and gravy, hardboiled eggs, granola, fresh coffee and juices. The breakfast room is a place where we got a chance to interact with other guests. Nate and his staff were welcoming and charming. There is a small kitchen on the third floor with a refrigerator to keep your leftovers and travel food while you stay at the hotel. It is far enough from the main street where you can have some space but walk to the sites and leave your vehicle behind. A great value.
Breakfast was good and many options available. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. Location to main street was excellent. Only drawback was not being able to control the thermostate. When i got cold at 3 am...i didnt want to call and wake anyone to adjust the temperature.
The property was well maintained. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the outdoor decks for a relaxing retreat after a day of walking downtown Galena.
The care and thoughtfulness that goes into this place is a rare encounter. Nate took good care of us and made a short stay lovely and memorable. Lisa and Ken (and Alvin )
This was our 2nd stay with this property, we've loved it each time! The owners are wonderful and personable, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and we love that it's a short walking distance to the main street shopping and dining area.
We were traveling with our dog and were looking for a place that allowed pets - when I found this place, saw it was so close to the main downtown area, and realized how reasonable the prices were, I booked it immediately. We were so happy with our room and the service provided by Nate, the owner. Our room (#4) was huge and had a full kitchen - we only stayed one night so we didn't get to take full advantage of that other than to stash our leftovers in the fridge. We will definitely stay here again if we ever do another weekend in town.
Wonderful staff replyed to our needs to keep us happy and heard. Clean and comfortable rooms. Breakfast area was a little small but they kept it well stocked. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
Perfect place to stay for one night in Galena. Close to downtown. Hotel was quaint and very clean. Nate is a terrific host. We'll be staying here again on our next trip to the area.
This boutiquey hotel was the perfect place for our first time in Galena. A short walking distance from Main St., its traditional/modern aesthetic was very welcoming. It’s very clean and the staff and owners are so friendly.
The check-in was a snap. The room was ready and clean. The hotel information handout was helpful. Their listing and overview of restaurants was comprehensive. The hotel location was so close to the historic district. Within minutes of slow walking we were in the Main St/Bench historic area; we also casually walked to an excellent restaurant (Fried Green Tomatoes) on Main St. Nate, the hotel manager was so cordial and welcoming. uarent
