My husband and I come here every year Columbus day weekend and have never been disappointed. It is like coming home to family. We love this place so much. The house is so wonderful and the food is amazing. Chuck and Susan are the warmest people you could ever meet and truly separate this b and b from any other we have been too. It is a must see accomodation!

My daughter and I spent a night at the Hancock House as a last weekend of summer before she headed back to college. This was our first stay at a B&B and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The house is beautiful, and Chuck and Sue were so gracious to all of there guests. Our room was very large and we had beautiful views of the city and the Mississippi River. Breakfast was delious, and we also enjoyed wine in the evening. Our only disappointment was that the weather was stormy and we did not get a chance to sit on the porch and enjoy the view and the conversation. We hope to be able to return during the holiday season this year.

The Inn is advertised as the Inn with a view and that it is. Chuck and Susan Huntley are wonderful innkeepers. Highly recommend the Hancock House B&B.

We just spent 3 days at a wonderful B&B overlooking the city of Dubuque, the Mississippi River and the cliffs of Wisconsin and Illinois. The spectacular view was matched inside by the warmth of the innkeepers and the charm of each room. It was a 4-star experience.

We so enjoyed our stay at The Hancock House. Susan and Chuck are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. We stayed in the first floor Library room. It was very comfortable with a 2-person whirlpool tub, television, a VERY comfortable bed and private bathroom and shower in the room. We have stayed in other B&B's in Dubuque and this one has become our favorite. The snack area in the old pantry was a nice surprise!! It was stocked with great freshly baked cookies, as well as beer, wine, and soda available to guests. We will be staying at The Hancock houses again and we HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who loves good conversation and old-fashioned hospitality! A++

We stayed at the Hancock House for our honeymoon on the recommendation of one of our groomsmen. We knew we wanted to visit Dubuque, but didn't know where to stay. Neither one of us had ever been to a bed and breakfast before and weren't sure what to expect. Chuck and Susan were absolutely delightful. We stayed at breakfast for two hours the first morning we were there, just visiting with the Huntley's and enjoying their fantastic breakfast. The entire experience truly blessed us as a newly married couple. We plan to visit Chuck and Susan again on our 1st anniversary and maybe even sooner. We stayed at 3 other hotels during our honeymoon and were terribly disappointed with them. We kept telling each other that we missed our new friends Chuck and Susan! I would recommend Hancock house to anyone who would like to get away and have "no worries" Chuck and Susan are most pleasant and will take extremely good care of you. We cannot wait to visit again.

We just got home after a wonderful one night stay at the Hancock House in Dubuque. First, Susan and Chuck are two of the warmest and most helpful people you will ever meet. They make the Hancock House a very inviting place to stay and they serve a very tasty and pleasant breakfast every morning. The Hancock House itself is beautiful and well cared for, with impressive cliff-side views of Dubuque and the Mississippi River, and a lovely front porch from which to take in the views. We are repeat guests and have had experience with rooms such as "The Library" and "The Doll Room", both of which were very comfortable with whirlpool tubs, televisions, comfortable beds, and private bathroom and shower areas in the room. There is a snack area with great freshly baked cookies, as well as beer, wine, and soda available to guests. If you want a great weekend getaway to relax in a beautiful, quiet, and friendly bed and breakfast, then you can't do any better than the Hancock House. And in our totally biased opinion, check out the Doll Room, as it has a great whirlpool located in the turret on the third floor, over-looking the entire city. Wonderful.

We visited the Handcock House on our honeymoon in October 2008 and had a wonderful experience. While the B&B was top drawer in accomodations and food, what really made the stay perfect were the two owners, Chuck and Sue. They are totally focused on their guests, which left us feeling on our departure that we had just gained two new family members. My new wife and I plan to return to spend future wedding anniversaries at the Handcock House (as long as both Chuck and Sue stay as owner/managers). We spent a day trip during our stay visiting the nearby (10 miles away) beautiful little rivertown of Galena IL, returning that evening back to our new Dubuqe "home" with Chuck and Sue. I can't say enough about the personal warmth and attention that each of them gave us. There is no doubt in my mind that their uniquely suited "people service" personalities are the primary reason that their B&B does so well, considering the competion they have in both Galena and Debuque.

My wife and I stayed for two nights recently and had a most enjoyable time. Our hosts made us feel at home right away and were around just enough to be helpful and fun without being pushy. Our room (and the whole house) was a fantastic visual feast. Perched on the edge of Dubuque's bluffs you really can see a long way from most of the rooms. It is a short walk to downtown (o.k. shorter going down the bluff than coming back on a full stomach up the bluff). I would recommend this facility to friends and family without hesitation.

We had a lovely time making Hancock House our home away from home. The home was very beautiful with all of its historical, Victorian decor. The porch was so relaxing. The innkeeper and owners were passionate to make our stay great. Especially enjoyed the tea books and the special blooming tea made for me by Susan. Food was wonderful.

My husband and I, with and without our older children have stayed multiple times in many of the various rooms. My favorite is the Train Room. I love the huge bathroom. Mrs. Hancock's Room would be my second favorite. What a wonderful experience. If I am by myself, I love Anna's. It is so cozy and interesting with the little arched windows and the bathroom skylight. The small tub under the skylight makes it for a unique bathing experience. The food is always delicious and Susan and Chuck (the owners) are the best. You can not beat the views, the wrap-around porch, the parlors, the dining room and the "cookies" in the beverage center. Make sure you experience this bed & breakfast. Go often and stay in different rooms (9 in all). Enjoy!!!!
