Galena Get-A-Way 2024

Perfect location for traversing the Main Street places, restaurants; etc. The size and design of this property was lovely for two couples. Nothing was missing for us. We were last in Galena is the late '90s and it's even better than I remember! We'd definitely recommending this location.

Girl's Getaway

We loved everything about our stay at the Gazette Suites. The property was beautiful, immaculate and a great location. The steps were a bit challenging for my 86 year old mom, but overall ended up being fine. The only negative (and it is minor) was the television channels were limited.

Best place to stay in Galena

Spotless, perfect location and a great parking spot, which was helpful because parking is hard to come by. The place had the cutest decor and comfortable beds. Everything you could think of was provided! Even came with a speaker and games for a perfect night in. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Girl's Trip to Galena

Awesome trip - LOVED the condo; great proximity to shopping, restaurants, bars, the trolley, Grant's home, etc. Will definitely come back. Would like to see salt & pepper at the condo - tried to get some at the spice store and it was $30!

Perfect location

We absolutely loved this place. Well appointed, clean, modern. Quiet! Yet in the center of everything. We were able to walk to nearly everything we wanted to see and do. Tons of restaurants to choose from. We booked for 2 nights. Wish we had planned for 3.
