B&B in Illinois

We spent 4 nights in this lovely B&B in late May/Early June on the outskirts of Galena after 5 night in Chicago. It's a increasingly pleasant 3 hour drive West of Chicago on the Iowa/Wisconsin/Illinois borders, very near the Mississippi. Galena being a lovely relaxing contrast to the city, but with plenty to occupy your time for a short stay. Good base to explore the surrounding countryside in whatever way you prefer - car, cycling, canoeing, walking etc.. several historic buildings to explore...

Beautiful house with fantastic hosts. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

What an amazing stay this was...super friendly staff who were so happy to help with any requests. The Sono is in Old Town with lots of great places to shop and eat nearby. Can't recommend it highly enough!

It was very clean and comforting. It was quiet. I loved the help-yourself snack and drink bar...large selection of teas. The large jetted bathtub in my room was very relaxing. Self check in instructions were clear and easy to follow. There was no fuss and the property is lovely. The bed could have been a little more comfortable in the Santa Barbara room. Great selection of items for a continental breakfast. I will most definitely stay again.

Really old property in a nice part of the city next to Benton park.Our host was Dan and Rosie the dog,they were great and looked after us well .We had a nice room on the first floor the McNair.Breakfast was good with homemade banana foster and waffles

Excellent experience all round, highly recommended

Great location for Metro into city did not use my car at all for 4 nights Wrigley field walking distance

Had a great stay. Gary and Connie were the perfect hosts. Different breakfast every morning. Cold drinks and yummy treats available all day. Would thoroughly recommend.

Amazing place with so many little touches! Lovely people working there and quirky decor. The breakfast is wonderful with homemade pastries and a specials menu that changes every day. Would highly recommend.

...after an arduous journey from Chicago. It was a great relief to arrive at Vrooman Mansion after a long day on the road as we started our trip down Route 66 and we received a very warm welcome. The house and its residential area were lovely, but the interior of the Mansion was particularly delightful being filled with antiques and beautiful furnishings. After a restful evening with everything provided for (tv, refreshments, snacks, magazines & books) and a comfortable night's sleep, we...

Be sure of a fantastic welcome from Cathy at this excellently located Lincoln Park B&B, meer minutes from the ‘L’ stop. We stayed in the Venetian suite which is at the back of the building so nice and quiet. Great comfy bed and beautiful fixtures and fittings. This suite has it’s own terrace as well as direct access to the communal hot tub terrace. The best feature of the B&B though, in addition to Cathy’s beautiful cooked breakfasts (as well as continental selection) is the free access...

I loved it was so close to busy Chicago but in the quiet subarbs where it was nice and quiet and felt very safe.The rooms were excellent and well equipped and the kitchen was full of snacks to eat when you wanted and a great selection of drinks. If I ever came to Chicago I would stay here again also the hosts were fantastic
