Last weekend my boyfriend and I stayed at the Galena Guest Home for a little weekend getaway with my sister and her husband. Margie (the owner of the b&b) was sweet and welcoming and made it feel like we were staying with family (if our family owned a huge old house on the top of a hill overlooking downtown Galena)....

This place was amazing! This was my first bed and breakfast experience, and it was not a disappointement. For 70$ a night (a steal compared to the other B&B's in the area), I stayed in a beautifully kept house, circa 1887, had a delicious and filling breakfast homemade by Marjie, and was five minutes from downtown Galena. The house was... More

My wife and I had wanted to visit Galena for many years and when we both found ourselves with some unexpected free time and nice weather the weekend after Labor Day, we decided to take a spur of the moment trip there. Since we didn't decide to take the trip until about 5 PM on Friday afternoon, we knew that... More

This was a last minute trip for us...we needed to get away and relax. Usually, I am one to over research a trip/vacation...so, this was a bit of a risk for me to decide to stay at the grandview (we changed our plans from camping to stay at a B&B only hour before we left home.) We were extremely pleased... More

My husband and I just returned from a get-away weekend with friends. Our stay at the Grandview Guest Home was perfect. Marjie is so sweet, helpful and hospitable. The house is gorgeous, the food delicious, the atmosphere relaxed and cozy. We rented the entire house and everyone agreed we should stay again soon!

The home was in a nice location with a wonderful view. The hostess was charming. She served a very elegant breakfast and her coffee was wonderful. We plan on going back in the spring. Very nice B & B at an affordable price.

My boyfriend took me to Galena for the week-end. We stayed at this beautiful warm and cozy B&B that over-looked the city. The hostess was very warm and a gracious lady. She prepared a delicious breakfast and made use feel welcome as we shared breakfast with other folks. She took picutres of us as we left and said our good... More

We had a lovely time. The house is beautifully kept and decorated both inside and out. Marjorie our hostess was as charming as her home and an excellent cook. Situated in an excellent location, everything we wanted too see was within easy walking distance. Early morning and late evening views overlooking the town are breathtaking. We will definitely return here... More

This house was a pleasant surprise considering the low rates. Rooms were nice, decorating was gorgeous and the breakfast was excellent. Just as important Marjorie, the owner and hostess, was great.
