My stay at The Goldmoor was absolutely delightful. The rooms were charming, with warming towel bars in a huge bathroom and a jacuzzi that allowed me to absorb the stunning views while enjoying a Charcuterie plate from cheese and meats we bought in downtown Galena. It was a different experience from our first visit, but just as adorable.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, very clean, and renovated, offering a nice view down to the water. The balcony, although overlooking the garage, was still enjoyable. The hotel is awesome with its views and space, but there could be some additions to make it even better.

Staying at the hotel was a unique experience. The Turret Suite had its own entry with a long foyer into the room with lovely drop ceilings, classy decorations, and plenty of space. However, there was a slight musty smell in the room.

My stay at the Goldmoor Inn was truly amazing. The rooms were large, spacious, and beautiful, making us feel safe from any potential health issues. The service from the wonderful staff was exceptional, always going above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The location in beautiful and historical Galena, IL, was isolated yet close enough to explore the charming town. The dining experience of delicious meals delivered to our suite was a highlight. However, the remote location may not suit those looking to be in the heart of town, and ensuring health safety protocols for the rooms and dining were a bit of a concern.
