“Cloran continues to shine”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 May 2013 NEW

Just completed a return visit to the Cloran Mansion and we were pleased to find that nothing had changed. The hosts, Carmine and Cheryl were as friendly and helpful as they have always been, the room was just as clean and comfortable, the breakfast is still the best that we've experienced after many years of staying at B&B's, and the...

“Wonderful Getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2013

The location is ideal, it is tucked away from the hussel and bussel of downtown and highway traffic, yet close enough to the downtown area for convenience. It has very beautiful grounds. clean rooms, and excellent breakfast. I would recommend the Cloran Mansion to anyone wanting a quiet and peaceful getaway.

“Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2013

Lovely property and fabulous breakfast. Galena's downtown is a joy to spend a sunny afternoon walking around and then to come back and enjoy the quiet in the gazebo was the icing on the cake. Highly recommended!

The room was clean and nicely appointed with antique styled furnishings, with a comfortable queen sized bed and a whirlpool bathtub. Our hosts, Carmine and Cheryl, went to great lengths to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. Cheryl recommended several... More

My Wife and I celebrated my wife's 30th birthday this spring and had a fantastic time from start to finish. Upon arrival at our room, we were greeted by a suprise birthday cake for my Wife, something the lovely hosts, Carmine and Cheryl didn't have to do. There are many creature comforts that gave the B&B a homely feel and... More

Thank you for such a nice review. The Cloran Condo is our newest addition which we purchased a couple of years ago. We wanted to make it more than just a nice room in a nice Lodge and thru guest input we made changes and added amenities to make it an off site extension of us. We're happy that you... More
