We have found this B & B to be #1 as far as we are concerned. Cheryl and Carmen are the most wonderful hostess and host and the breakfast is to die for. We have stayed there 5 ot 6 times and every time we are heading that way we talked about how we cannot wait to have their breakfast.... More

My fiance and I have stayed at Cloran Mansion three times now and it is always the first place I try to book when we are in Galena. Carmine and Cheryl have made each visit an enjoyable one and always go out of their way to make us feel welcome. We have stayed in Antonio's Cottage and the Tower Suite.... More

This was our very first B&B. We spent our Honeymoon in Galena and spent five nights at this lovely B&B. The hosts are not intruding. Instead we found them very helpful, available for our inquiries, and made us feel quite at home, while allowing us to have our privacy. If you like whirlpools, there is one in every room, but...

First time at a B & B. Was there for Wine Lover's weekend. This would definitely be a place I would stay in again. Rooms were clean. The upstairs hot-tub above the bathroom was awesome. Cheryl and Carmine make you feel right at home. Oh, have I mentioned the breakfasts. WOW. Better then most restaurants. I would not hesitate to... More

I was looking for a room in Galena for one night to celebrate Mother's Day and our 24th anniversary to surprise my wife. As we arrived on our motorcycles, we were both impressed. The nights stay was wonderful but the breakfast in the morning was to die for. Carmine and Cheryl could not have been better hosts and we definately... More

My husband and I spent hours reading thru each of the Bed & Breakfasts featured on the Galena.org website. We finally chose Cloran Mansion Bed & Breakfast. Much to our delight, we could not have chosen better! Our two-day stay at the Cloran Mansion was most relaxing. We felt like we were visiting relatives, with Carmine & Cheryl greeting us... More

This was our second visit to Galena and the Cloran Mansion B & B. Cheryl and Carmine greet you at the door and make you feel more like a family member than a paying guest. During your entire visit they cater to your every need regardless of the number of guests. Each room is beautifully decorated and offers unique views... More

My wife and I have looked to try a bed and breakfast but have always been a bit skeptical. She surprised me a few weeks ago with a trip to Galena and a stay at the Cloran mansion. Within 30 minutes of checking in and walking through the house and the basics with Carmine, we were sold. As my wife... More

First time for Galena and first time for staying at a bed and breakfast. The Cloran Mansion was charming and well kept. Cheryl and Carmine were wonderful hosts and made sure our stay was its best. We stayed in John's room and it was just right for us. We celebrated my birthday and they had surprised us with a birthday... More
