The Victorian Mansion Bed & Breakfast is a historical paradise located in the resort town of Galena. It is such a popular place that even the likes of Ulysses S. Grant have visited in the past.
The structure was built in 1856 by a wealthy banker, and it includes two acres of land. The building has been restored so as to be safe and modern in quality.
Each day begins with a delicious breakfast made from farm fresh eggs. Guests will find themselves near many incredible attractions and are even walking distance from famous old-fashioned Main Street in downtown with its vintage shops, restaurants, a riverfront, and other treasures.
If you prefer to spend more time at this Victorian hotel, you'll love the tranquil little garden areas. Read a book or watch the clouds pass as you relax in chaise chairs, or find the secluded gazebo and spa tub.
The mansion includes eight guest rooms altogether, each with its own unique character. Rates begin at about $135 per night and weekends require a two-night minimum stay.
Guests of this fabulous place enjoy five-star accommodations including a Jacuzzi tub, flat screen TV, and top-notch beds. Some suites even have multiple rooms and beds, giving you space to bring friends or the whole family.
