I would love to ask Jenny from Chicago since her and her husband stayed in various rooms during their 3 day stay at the DeSoto Hotel I wanted to know which room was their favorite and if they had rooms on different floors that had a view of either the Main St. or the dining area which they liked best. In addition my friends and I will be passing through Galena in late September and would like to eat dinner at the DeSoto. We were wondering if our favorite waiter Jeff still worked there and if so if we could get seated in his area when we are there. Thank you. DeeDee Grade

I know Jeff was there 5 months ago when my fiancée and I stayed at the desoto!

Is there a minimum 2 night stay for weekend nights?

I really do not know if this is a requirement of a weekend stay. You would have to call the hotel and inquire about this topic. Sorry I cannot help in this regard.

Do rooms have refrigerator and blow dryers?

As stated above, we have had two different rooms and neither had a refrigerator. They did have blow dryers in both rooms. We even had a suite with a fireplace. I highly recommend the midweek internet options. They are great money savers and offer a view of Galena without the crowds. The food is fantastic and you can get vouchers from the specials. Vetmanage said it above and I concur, we will not stay anywhere else in Galena. It;s right downtown and offers free on site parking.

Does each accommodation have: iron, ironing board, and hair dryer? Also, what about a mini fridge? Thanks.

No it doesn't have any of those. It has ice bucket and traditional shampoo lotion etc. The hotel does have two complementary water bottles and a small chocolate on first day of arrival.

Checking if all of your rooms in en suite bathrooms/showers? Thanks
