Abe'S Spring Street Guest House - A historic 1850s brewery transformed into an artistic bed & breakfast with sauna access

Located four blocks from Galena's historic Main Street, this Galena hotel occupies the footprint of the 1850 City Brewery. Abe'S Spring Street Guest House provides air-conditioned suites with private entrances, each featuring flat-screen Smart TVs, free WiFi, and distinctive fireplaces adorned with hand-crafted clay tiles. The accommodations include kitchenettes equipped with microwaves, coffee makers, and refrigerators. All suites contain private bathrooms with showers, while select units offer claw-foot tubs and spa-like amenities. A six-person sauna is available to all guests. The property showcases regional antiques and original artwork by the artist-owner Charles. Abe's sits within 0.5 miles of River Bend Gallery, Linmar Gardens, and Galena Veterans Memorial Park, with Dubuque Regional Airport positioned 21.5 miles away.

Custom packages available for special occasions

Cons

“Abe's Spring Street Guest House strikes me as a deeply personal Galena retreat, infused with regional artistry and the warmth of its namesake canine. Its adults-only setting and proximity to Main Street create a balanced experience, where history and relaxation intertwine. The private sauna and curated events like 'Glaze and Graze' suggest an owner invested in crafting unique moments for guests.”
