Cloran mansión My…read morehusband and I were celebrating our 10th anniversary and so we decided to stay at the Cloran Mansion for a few days. We booked the massage and dinner package as well as renewed our vows in front of the mansion. I cannot say enough about the amazing experience we had during our time here. Paul was an amazing host! He puts in a lot of details into making the experience one to remember. We have never stayed at a bed-and-breakfast so we were completely surprised by how wonderful and elegant the mansion was. On Thursday when we arrived, we had our scheduled massage, followed by our ceremony, and a private dinner in the dining room. Paul even took some pictures of us and gifted us with a beautiful framed picture of me and my husband. On Friday morning, we met some wonderful guest during our breakfast, and headed out to downtown Galena. Our breakfast was an excellent and tasty homemade breakfast, so much so, that we were so excited about breakfast the next day. Although Paul is basically the face of a mansion, his wife and employee work just as hard to make it an overall beautiful experience. We will definitely be back! We know that we have other options, but we cannot say enough about this place and want to continue to support Paul like he supports and tends to his customers. Paul and family, thank you so very much for making our 10th anniversary as memorable as you did.

Mission accomplished. I've stayed in many hotels and after a while they pretty much all seem the same. This place is truly like staying with a family member (one that you like). The rooms are old fashioned but very cozy with comfortable beds and most importantly, CLEAN! Complimentary snacks if you get the late night munchies and awesome pastries and coffee in the morning. From the second we walked in it was if she had known us for years. No forced conversations about the weather and other lame meet and greet categories. Outstanding moment: We got hugs when we left! If you don't like to be touched you're probably weird and this might make you feel awkward but I love hugs. Again it's like visiting a family member who is looking forward to your return. We'll back back.

As noted on the website, the rooms are on the second floor and the stairs are steep -- no elevator. So just be prepared. It's an old building, so there are some creaks and groans when you walk the hall or rooms, but it is so quaint! The antique furniture is lovely. The beds are very comfortable. The bathroom is roomy and the water pressure worked well (always a plus for my husband). The HUGE cinnamon roll awaiting us when we arrived was wonderful!!! And we thought the price per night was affordable (under $200). Being at the end of Main St makes it more quiet than uptown further. Just an enjoyable place to stay.

We stayed in the Station House, a beautifully decorated, private, and peaceful cottage with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The food was exceptional from start to finish. Our first evening, we enjoyed a private dinner outdoors by the fire pit, listening to the soothing sounds of the babbling brook. The second night featured an unforgettable seven-course candlelit dinner in the main house. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. Each morning, a generous breakfast was delivered to our cottage. You definitely won't leave hungry, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a better dining experience anywhere else. Throughout our stay, our host, Michael, was energetic, kind, and welcoming. As both host and chef, he made every part of our visit feel personal and special. We're so thankful for the time and care he puts into creating such a memorable experience.

Each stay, they cook one dinner for guests. That meal also stood out to us as special. It held its own against many of the fine dining restaurants in Chicago. The surprise cookies we got each afternoon were such a nice touch. They were also so very friendly and we felt so welcome there. There was a positive energy that there that was very contagious.
