This place suits me perfectly with great wi-fi, a fantastic fitness center, and a welcoming bar/lounge area. On my first stay, the staff recommended a local delivery which I still remember. I highly recommend it and am coming back for Christmas.

The quiet pool area felt like our private oasis, and the fascinating hotel history enriched our stay immensely.

great stay but some issues

The room was redone in a timely manner which made for a nice atmosphere the Riverboat Bar's manager had great drink knowledge and a lively personality that made our nights enjoyable.

Burned out bulb needed to be addressed.

I had a pleasant stay with a spacious whirlpool suite and fantastic views. The comfortable bed made me feel relaxed, and the breakfast was delicious—especially the eggs Benedict! I’d definitely go back again!

The whirlpool bath was fantastic, but the heating was inconsistent during my stay.

easy strolls to great dining and natural beauty

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Dubuque as I found the nearby coffee shops and wonderful breweries all within walking distance, making it perfect for my weekend city strolls, and the beautiful E. B. Lyons Nature Center is just a short trip away for those who love a touch of nature in their explorations.

Totally recommend for a weekend pause

Beautiful hotel, beautiful atmosphere, with friendly staff ready to assist and convenient amenities like a well-equipped fitness center and delicious dining options that greatly enhanced my stay.

Great time with friends! We loved the big rooms and the friendly staff. We had fun exploring the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium and the Grand Harbor Resort & Waterpark, both just a short walk away. The quiet rooms were a bonus. Coffee machines and free parking!

The hotel offers a beautiful and comfortable stay with spacious rooms and pleasant staff. However, some issues arise with noise from outside and lack of attention during check-in. Overall, it's a good choice for couples looking for a relaxing getaway, though improvement in service and menu options would enhance the experience.

Historic charm in the heart of downtown

We spent a couple nights here and loved the location! The vibe is super cozy and inviting, with a fun historic feel. The staff was amazing and super helpful. Had breakfast in the bar area, which was solid. Just wish the pool wasn’t freezing—felt like a fridge! But the hot tub made up for it. Totally recommend!
