We only stayed one night at the Aldrich Guest House, but we wish we could've stayed longer. We stayed in the McClellan Room, which had a bay window, fireplace and canopy bed. It was just perfect. The bed was comfortable, the water pressure in the private bath was excellent! And both the room and bath were beautifully decorated. The location... More

Fran & Brian operate a superb guest house just up from Main Street Galena. This was the cleanest American B&B we have ever stayed in. While the room was small <by our standards>, it had its own private bath. The breakfast meal was orchestrated by our hosts, making sure everyone would be involved with the morning chit-chat. The object was... More

You could not find a more pleasant place to stay in Galena. Brian and Fran are fabulous hosts and the full breakfast was marvelous. Our little room was appointed perfectly and each room has its own bathroom. The bed was comfy, the water was hot and the conversation was great. We will return for sure. More

This is the 6th times me and my husband stayed at Bed and Breakfast and we both rate this as the best among the 6. First of all it was winter and when we called for early check in they don't hesitate but let us in about 4 hours before the check in time. It was our anniversary and I... More

Very clean and a great location. It's about a 5 minute walk to the downtown area so that's really convenient, but because it's not right in town the price is less. The breakfast was just OK. I went with two of my friends and all 3 of us said that all the other B & B's we'd been to had... More

My husband and I took a 5 day driving tour along the Mississippi river and for our first night we stayed here. The home is beautiful and the owners were very nice. After breakfast they told us quite a few interesting facts about their home and the area. This home is located within walking distance from Grant's home and downtown... More

My wife and I were married in this Guest House in 1991 by a Justice of the Peace with the then proprietor as our only witness. We have been back to Galena, but never stayed again at this particular b&b. It was suggested that the Aldrich House might also be a good choice for my wife's annual sister reunion this... More

We stayed two nights at the Aldrich B&B and would definitely return.We were made to feel as if it were our own home but without having to do the up-keep. The inn was meticulous and the innkeepers were very accomodating.We loved the fact that everything was within walking distance but yet the area was quiet and had beautiful flower gardens.I... More

The Aldrich House is a great place to stay in Galena. I traveled with my 2 sisters for a short weekend getaway, and we were able to walk to Main St. in about 5 minutes from the Aldrich House. Fran, the owner, was very friendly and warm. She cooked tasty and filling breakfasts, was available to help with tourist plans,... More
