Arrived on a Sunday afternoon at 2:30 and was told no way to check in until after 4:00 PM. Check in was all about collectiing the money. No mansion history or information could be provided until Monday's breakfast. Plastic bath room glasses was all that was available for quest use. So wine on the second floor porch was in the... more

Enjoyed our stay at the Victorian Mansion. Room was comfortable, clean and the breakfasts were wonderful. Had a few problems with the wireless internet but we finally figured it out. Afternoon snacks and wine were very nice. more

The property is beautiful: we were allowed to wander into rooms that hadn't been reserved and the entire house is grand and cozy at the same time. But we'll never return. We arrived early and were treated brusquely ("I was hoping to relax ... let's just get [registering you] over with"). We felt bad about it, but 10 minutes later... more

The Victorian Mansion overall was amazing. My husband and I travel to Galena every year for our anniversary and every year we stay at a different B&B (this was our 7th!). This place was among the best in terms of the ambience and sheer beauty of the house. The gardens were beautiful, the secluded hot tub/gazebo was very relaxing and... more

They liked it so much that we will be returning again this year. Christine and Chauncy were the innkeepers the first... more

This was our first experience at a B&B and also our first trip to Galena. My husband and I had such a wonderful experience, that we would love to make Galena and Victorian Mansion a regular getaway. After walking around much of Galena, I must say that Victorian Mansion is one of the most beautiful b&bs. The building and gardens... more

My wife and I came to Galena during the same weekend the last 2 years to visit the annual County Fair and do some shopping. Last year we stayed at the DeSoto Hotel which was conveniently located on the main street, but lacked the amenities and quiet of a B&B. This year we opted to try the Victorian Mansion which... more
