Aldrich Guest House

Aldrich house is beautifully decorated and maintained, quiet, comfortable and serene b&b. Innkeepers Robert and Douglas see to every need, and can help any activities in and around Galena. Breakfasts and 5pm drinks and snacks are delicious, and provide the perfect setting for getting to know fellow guests. Stay there once, and you will understand why we keep returning.

This was our 1st stay at a B&B. David and Robert are amazing and so inviting. They are very knowledgeable about the local businesses and the history of Galena. We enjoyed 5pm drinks and the breakfast was good. David is hilarious and has the absolute best stories! The room was so beautiful and clean. I had a chance to see some of the others as well. It was a lovely trip.

The perfect get away spot. We are so happy we booked our stay here. Lots to choose from in Galena, but this experience was tops. Attention given to every detail. Cocktail hour was a pleasant surprise with unique cocktails and personal charcuterie trays served up with conversation that connected all the guests. We neglected to make dinner reservations, but Robert handled it and we were given a great table at our preferred restaurant 45 minutes later. The evening vibe was ideal as we relaxed in the potting shed. Breakfast was outstanding followed by an extra pot of delicious coffee as we read on the porch. So many nice touches. Just go, you will be so happy you did!

The innkeepers, Robert and Douglas are excellent hosts! The bed and pillows were very comfortable, and the room was beautifully decorated and sparkling clean. Aldrich House is in a great location to explore Galena, very close to all of the downtown shops and restaurants.

Staying at the Aldrich House was an excellent experience. The House is lovely on the outside and the interior has been renovated and styled with beauty, taste, and reflecting the history of the house. Each touch in the individual rooms as well as the common areas give a sense of welcome. The color scheme and decor are relaxing while being elegant in a way that is not frilly or overdone. The grounds are lovely and understated fitting perfectly with the House. The owners called ahead of our arrival to welcome us and give specific details. The checkin time starts at noon which is a welcome early surprise as we are used to times of 3 or later. We arrived and were warmly greeted by the owners, Douglas and Robert, who gave a tour, carried our hugely overpacked (for three days) bags upstairs, and made us feel at home. The touches: breakfast in the morning inside one day, on the porch the next-so delicious. I could write for days about the wonderful food. Chocolate chip cookies all day, coffee, water, and tea, the Shed (which is a whole other paradise of comfort), and the common areas-all perfectly completed a wonderful stay.

Clean, quiet, beautifully restored yet super easy walking to shops and restaurants!! No need to worry about the hastle of parking. Softest sheets I've ever slept on! And who can pass up delicious chocolate chip cookies!! Wonderful hosts - will definatley stay there again my next time in Galena!
