I came with my sister for a girl's birthday weekend celebration. I cannot say enough WONDERFUL things about our stay at the Queen Anne! From the second we checked in, Mike immediately made us feel welcome, and there were many thoughtful touches throughout our stay. We loved the parlor party-we enjoyed our conversation with Mike so much- who is a gracious, interesting host- that the party "hour" turned into closer to 2 hours! (We loved his stories of local history.) The home is exquisitely appointed. The rooms are extremely inviting, and this is the first time I have stayed in a "hotel" bed where I woke up the next day and my cantankerous back felt better than it did sleeping in my own bed! The clawfoot bathtub was beautiful, and the room felt very private! (Plus, the added modern touch of satellite tv in-room is something hard to find at many hotels!) We spent the evening eating at one of the 2 EXCELLENT restaurants Mike recommended in the area. After coming home, we sat outside on the relaxing porch and played cards, and also met Anita, who is truly a delightful woman! (And checked email via wireless internet- another nice modern touch!) But the highlight was the next morning- I have been fortunate enough to be able to travel in my lifetime, and NEVER have I had a more gourmet or delicious breakfast while travelling! Mike could compete in "Top Chef- Breakfast Edition" and win, HANDS DOWN! :-) The food was unique, delicious, pleasing to the eye- and he and Anita's warm service and conversation during breakfast made us feel very pampered! (Oh, and the early morning coffee/tea carts were a great touch.) I cannot say enough about our experience at the Queen Anne- we would have added a 3rd night, we loved it so much, but they were booked! I guess we'll have to figure out another reason to have a girls' weekend back VERY SOON! I never want to stay at another "regular hotel" again... Thanks Mike and Anita for a truly memorable stay!

Everyone needs to get away from their hometown ever so often, and when our internal compasses pointed to the east (from Iowa), we hopped in the car, deciding on a whim to visit the historical town of Galena. Intending to just spend the day there, we hadn't made reservations anywhere overnight and ended up calling different B&B's in the area to see if there were open rooms available. Much to our surprise Queen Anne was the last place we called, & the owner Mike invited us to his beautiful home to view his rooms. He gave us a brief tour and history of the home as we are lovers of history.We immediately felt comfortable and decided to stay the night.What we liked particularly about the QA is that it is in a quiet area, yet just a relatively short jaunt across a walking bridge leads one to the main street, where restaurants, shops and other attractions abound. When it was time for us to return to the Queen Anne for the evening, we felt as if we belonged there. We shared tea and viewed historical books which are normally set out on the coffee table. While enjoying the faux fireplace (all the benefits of the warm, glowing ambiance without the heat), we listened to old LP records and relaxed. After a romantic evening & a restful night on a comfy bed, we joined the other guests at the table for breakfast. The food was fresh, simple, and presented well. We enjoyed visiting with the others, as well as the owner Mike who was a charming and gracious host. I purchased the Queen Anne Guest House Cookbook and plan on trying some of the particularly delicious sounding dishes.All in all, our stay in Galena was a happy, fond one and one which we will always remember. A lot of our memorable moments were spent at the Queen Anne, and though we only spent one wonderful evening there, we do plan on returning soon! View Reviewer Info
