Top Mines of Spain State Recreation Area Hotel Reviews

Hotel Julien Dubuque

8/10 Good

"The bed was lumpy and uncomfortable."

Tesla MedBed Center, East Dubuque

8/10 Good

"Clean. Quiet. Secluded location. Allows dogs for a fee. Staff was friendly and helpful. My only complaints are that they lock the front doors at night so you have to use the fire exit if you want to leave early in the morning or let your dog out to go to relieve themselves. No staff there before 7am. Also the bed was VERY HARD. My husband liked it but a bit hard for my liking. It's an older property but has been nicely renovated inside. We stayed in the regular hotel not the bio-healing side. There's a naturopathic "medical" side that they have. Can't comment on that. No major issues for us. Would stay again if needed."

Stoney Creek Inn Galena

10/10 Excellent

"This is probably one of the best Hotels I have ever stayed at. The entire staff was great. The rooms were clean, the pool and sauna were great, and the breakfast was also fantastic and so was Peg who was making sure everyone had plenty to eat. This was more than your average hotel breakfast. I love this place and hope to stay there again. I hope to try other locations of the Stoney Creek Hotel chain."

Hilton Garden Inn Dubuque Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"One thing I didn't like was that since the last time we stayed there, they eliminated the coin vending machines that used to be located by the ice machines. Although we usually bring bottled soda along with us on our trips here, it's nice to have an alternative, although fairly expensive. Our only other option this time was to go down to the front desk and and pay $3 for a lousy 12 oz. can of soda, or go to either the bar and order a glass of soda, or go to the casino to get a small paper cup of soda, for free (of course), but very inconvenient as you couldn't take it bake to your hotel room."

Grand Harbor Resort

8/10 Good

"We went to Grand Harbor Convention Center for a Junior Pool Tournament event. Stay in this hotel for a whole week. Very satisfied as far as I concern. The facility is a little outdated. So do not expect it look like a 4-star hotel. But the rooms are maintain really clean. The breakfast is good too. It is right by the river. So very convenient for a relaxing evening walk. I will definitely stay here again if the event is at the same location next year."

The Hancock House

8/10 Good

"This is a gorgeous and unique place, in a historic neighborhood whose charm is second to none. Very glad we stayed there! The only drawback was the lack of breakfast which is apparently only on weekends. There should have been a first-rate coffee setup to make up for this, but supplies were short and there was no silverware. Also, no live television in the room, only youtube TV."
