My daughter-in-law and I came to Galena for weekend away and for the craft fair.
Our stay at the Cottage turned out to be our favorite place. The rooms were clean and bright.
The staff was excellent. The location for what we wanted to do was perfect.

I am not a good sleeper away from home. Let me tell you I had no trouble sleeping, my
problem was getting up in the morning. The beds were really comfortable. We liked our pillows
so much we bought them to bring home. This was not our first visit and it will not be our last.
We are already booked for our visit this year.

the Irish Cottage is one of the most comfortable and friendliest place I have every stayed.

The Irish cottage well exceeded our expectations! Their rooms, staff, food, entertainment and spa were superior for such a reasonably priced room. The spa is small and intimate and the massage was heavenly! I judge the quality of hotels for my job and this property is a wonderful gem to find! The staff is friendly, kind and attentive. Oversized, beautiful rooms in a quiet environment. You can't beat the location, close to downtown Galena, but not in the busy, hustle bustle area. Very convienent to skiing and shopping. The restaurant/pub downstairs has great free nightly entertainment! It made it very easy & fun to spend an entire night at the hotel, eat, drink and be entertained and never have to drive. We will be back!! The food was excellent as well!

This hotel is incredible! The staff is so polite and accommodating. I'm talking about the entire hotel staff...the restaurant, the lobby, the spa...all friendly and just make the hotel experience 125% better. The rooms are beautiful and spacious and unlike other hotels, you can't hear hallway noise or other guests next door. The hotel is a 5 minute drive from downtown Galena which is super convenient. This is the only hotel my husband & I will stay in when we visit Galena. We can't wait to go again!

We visited the hotel as a girls' outing for the wine Lovers Weekend. What a great package event! The hotel is beautiful, peaceful and scenic surroundings. Loved the decor, the library is a great place to relax with a drink, or do some journaling or reading. The view from the library reveals a hilly area that will change with the seasons. The spa is so calming and a great place for a massage. The pub had great breakfasts and also lunches. The wine events were well organized, punctual, and very informative as well as fun. The dinners were arranged at great restaurants, Vinny Vanuchi's and also at One Eleven Mai, and the shuttle service was excellent. All the staff was friendly, and very accomodating. The pool was warm, and very clean. The fitness room had several pieces of good equipment for a varied workout. Loved the live entertainment at the connecting pub. It was just a wonderful experience and we plan to visit again for the wine lovers event and perhaps others as well. I would highly recommend this hotel. It's just a really beautiful, well equiped, and clean place to stay, as well as having lots of ammenties. Only complaint is that the pillows were not as plump as I would have liked. But that's not a big deal.
