This was a really lovely stay. I have no complaints and it was even cost-effective! Hot breakfast was great, and we loved tea time with scones in the late afternoon.

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.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Irish Cottage Inn. Check in was a breeze, and the facility itself very cute to explore. Their afternoon tea offering was a nice addition to their outstanding breakfast. We had dinner at Frank O'Dowd's and enjoyed the décor and live music. The dinner and drinks were great, and it was nice to walk back to our room after a fun day in Galena. My only complaint is that the bed could use a mattress pad as they were not the best. However, the room was quiet, with very clean and new bathroom. A very short drive to downtown Galena. We will certainly consider a repeat stay!

DEFINITELY A PLACE IN MY HEART

It was a such wonderful place & our visit was much too short. However we will definitely return there. This was a anniversary getaway for us. Many things in town are closed in town on Mondays but we always made it work regardless. The Irish Cottage staff were absolutely great & willing to help in any way. Plus they serve a nice hot breakfast that is included in room. We loved the all the Irish decor down to the imitation coal burning fireplaces (one of my favorite things) & the restaurant is so cozy. We were quite impressed with their outststanding library & collections. We left with great memories of this charming place.

Quaint and pretty building. Very old looking but rooms are nicely equipped with USB ports, bathroom is remodeled adequately. Feels like you are in an old European hotel. Amenities are ok. Breakfast is ok. Service was ok. Shuttle is available and other than a potential 15 minute or so wait, very convenient. The attached pub does have amazing food at dinner. Best Reuben I’ve had in many many years. Live music was ok. Overall good hotel but nothing outstanding.
