Comfortable Stay with Friendly Service

Very comfortable bed with ample pillows. Great service. A plus is the hot breakfast that is included with your stay. Also fun to see Irish Dancing in the pub on Saturday evening and folk-pop singer on Sunday evening. All the staff were extremely friendly and attentive.

Our stay was a delight. The inn was very attractive with nice sitting areas. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly. A continental breakfast and plated breakfast were included with your room and served in the pub dining area. We loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone visiting Galena.
