This is absolutely a treasure! The hosts were the friendliest, kindest and most interesting people you would want to meet. Their place is incredible, and what they have done to restore this home and gardens is beyond description. It is the best get-away we've had, and just what we were looking for - plenty of "quiet" time, relaxation in the... more

We have stayed at this b&b on 4 different occasions over the past two years, with good reason. The rooms we stayed in are breathtaking, there is so much attention to detail-each one having a victorian theme of its own. Oh yeah, you even get chocolates on your pillows! The beds were comfy, and we had a hot tub in... more

Tom and Kathleen are the perfect hosts. The way they brought this nineteenth-century home back to life is truly amazing. They have definitely preserved the history and character of this home, including a recreation of the original gardens. The rooms are comfortable and beautifully decorated. We couldn't ask for a more pleasurable weekend and plan to come back again in... more

We recently visited Galena with guests from Croatia. We selected Abbey's sight unseen from the internet and hit the jackpot!! The owners, Kath and Tom are THE most welcoming hosts and pampered us with wine and lemonade, fresh flowers in our rooms, and great advice about what to see in Galena. We had a wonderful time relaxing in the cozy... more

My wife and I spent just one night on April 24th. We arrived a few hours early, and were allowed to check in. The owners couldn't have been more friendly, and the rehab they did on the house was incredible. It was a hot day, but by evening we enjoyed a cool breeze blowing through the room. We had the... more

This is a beautiful home but I'd have to agree with the other reviews on complaints on the innkeepers. I felt like we were intruding on their time and they were too busy to make our stay pleasant. Galena is rich in history and homes that reflect a Civil War era. I feel the homes there are meant to be... more

Thought this B&B was great. Wife booked a room the night before. Found the owner to be pleasant and sweet. Showed us around and even upgraded our room to a jacuzzi room. Anyone who complains about the owner not being around, needs to love the one you're with or become more interesting. We didn't come there to be entertained. She... more

My husband and I have stayed at over thirty different bed and breakfasts over the past fifteen years. Galena is one of our favorite destinations, being historical, relaxing and romantic. I have never posted a review of any of them, and thought it was time to start. We arrived in Galena for the fall tour of historical homes. Abby's High... more

My husband and I spent a very nice weekend at Abbey’s High Street Bed & Breakfast. The owners were very nice and made us feel welcomed right away. I liked that the owners were available when you needed them, but were not hovering over us all of the time. The home and gardens were beautiful. Also, it had a great... more

The moment we went inside the house till we walked out of the house, I was feeling that I was in a prison with no one to watch or ask us what we need. Both Husband and wife were working in the garden as if they had a time limit to finish it . When you walk in, you should... more
