Guest Reviews & Ratings
Our stay at the hotel was absolutely wonderful. The location is superb, close to everything you'd want to see in Galena. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff excels in hospitality. However, the dining experience, while artistically served, left a bit to be desired in terms of options. The facilities are top-notch, making it a great value for the money.
The hotel is truly a gem in the heart of Galena, offering a great stay with some minor drawbacks. The rooms are cozy and inviting, the service is exceptional, and the location is ideal for exploring the city. However, the dining experience could use some improvement, and certain facilities may fall short of expectations.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy and well-maintained, and the staff members were incredibly hospitable. However, the dining options were somewhat limited. The location was superb, amidst a beautiful garden and within walking distance to downtown. The facilities were modern and convenient, making my stay quite enjoyable overall.
This hotel is truly a hidden gem in Galena! The rooms are cozy and inviting, the service is top-notch with a staff who have such a talent for hospitality. The location is perfect, within walking distance of the downtown area but nestled in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by stately homes. The dining experience is a culinary delight that would easily qualify as a feature article in a glossy magazine. However, the only downside is the slightly high price for the value offered.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, surrounded by beautiful homes and within walking distance of everything I wanted to see in Galena. The rooms were spacious and modern, and the staff truly shines with their incredible talent for hospitality. However, the dining experience fell short with only tasty snacks available. Despite this, the facilities were top-notch, offering a luxurious and convenient stay.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location is perfect, close to everything one might want to see in Galena. The rooms were incredibly clean and cozy, and the staff was so welcoming. However, the dining experience could be improved with more variety in the breakfast options. The facilities, especially the pool area, were well-kept and enjoyable. The price was reasonable, but it would have been better if Wi-Fi was included.
