Galena Inn

What guests think

Across reviews, travellers describe Galena Inn as a welcoming, historic inn with character, consistently praised for friendly hosts, tasty sit-down breakfasts, comfortable and often spacious suites, and a peaceful setting within walking distance of downtown Galena’s shops and restaurants.

Several mention the hill and many steps to and from downtown, plus occasional hot tub unavailability and parking that can be tricky. A few also had minor issues such as a hard-to-find entrance with limited cell service, a nonworking TV or dim lighting, and, in one case, areas that could have been cleaner. Overall, expect a low-key base suited to exploring Galena.

Innkeeper Kerrie was kind and overall helpful. The building is beautiful. She has generally concerned about our ability to get to the third floor and helped us relocate to the coach house. One TV didn’t work in the space and the lighting in the coach house was pretty dim. The breakfast was good and she was willing to accommodate our special dietary needs. I do feel like some aspects of the house and yard could have been cleaner. Parking can be a challenge.

The hot tub at the room doesn't work and I wasn't told about it. One of the reasons that I took that room is because we're looking for a room with Jacuzzi. That's why we're very disappointed. If a knew that before my trip,for sure I'll be asking for a refund
