General Information

An Edwardian Bed & Breakfast dedicated to sharing the elegance and comfort of an earlier era with a few discerning guests. The wheel-chair accessible Inn sits in the historic "Mansion Row" area and is within easy walking distance of many local businesses, restaurants and historic sites. Each day begins with a gourmet breakfast as sumptuous as the room in which it is served. The dining room of the Mandolin Inn is considered by many to be the most magnificent in all of Dubuque. An artist has painted a fantasy forest above the oak paneling. The beveled glass china cabinet stretches from floor to ceiling. A beautiful fireplace detailed with Italian tile rests in the corner. Pampered visitors relax at day's end in the parlor or the music room. In fair weather you may enjoy refreshments on the veranda. Guest rooms are meticulously decorated with period antiques and are a perfect place to kindle romance or to relax at the end of a business day.
