We had an absolutely lovely long weekend at the Goldmoor. The Arthur suite was spacious, and the whirlpool was a wonderful way to relax after taking in the local scenery. We had dinner at The Edge at Goldmoor--absolutely delicious! The breakfasts each morning to the room were much better than any traditional bed and breakfast I've visited. I highly recommend!

The property is beautiful, even in the winter with no snow. We had great views of the Mississippi river and my wife and I enjoyed the break away from society. It was wonderful to listen to the wildlife. There were so many stars out during the cloudless nights as well - and the quiet was wonderful. It was broken every 40 minutes or so with the rumble of a train passing by, which we also enjoyed hearing. The breakfasts were served in room and were amazing as well. Galena was less than 15 minutes away, so getting to town was easy enough.

Goldmoor Inn delivers on everything.

Fantastic place to stay! Clean, great service, convenient drive to area attractions, but secluded enough and quiet for relaxing evenings/nights. Wonderful higher-end restaurant at must if you stay there, and great breakfast served in your room every morning. Definitely will stay there again if we're back in the area.
