Ulasan The Hancock House

I can honestly say that it was way beyond our expectations. The house itself was gorgeous as was the million dollar view we had from our room. The room was clean and beautiful. The breakfast was top notch, as was the history info we got from Simon (the owner) during. The staff was also so wonderful. My wife and I will be back and we will recommend The Hancock House to anyone. We'll done owner and staff. We are not easily impressed, but we are this time!!!!

Beautiful antique house from yesteryear with lots of character and a great view of the city. Each room has its own unique theme. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Steps away from the steep steps leading into the downtown area and multiple breweries & coffee shops. Breakfast was nice. Driving distance to Galena and the field of dreams. If I ever ended up in this area again, I'd stay here in a heartbeat. Thanks Simon!

The Hancock House is a beautiful historic home with beautiful rooms for your stay. Your host Simon is friendly, hospitable, and welcoming and has great recommendations for places to see and places to eat! I would love to go back again! Thanks again Simon!!

We stayed in the premium room (Library) on the ground floor after an interesting check-in. The innkeeper does not answer calls or texts promptly so you may stand outside the door for a while. Parking is down the hill and you drag your bags up a steep incline and up tall porch steps to get inside. Others had to further drag their things upstairs to their rooms. On a positive side, the house details are beautiful and the view from the large porch each day was stunning. There was coffee and cups so I made a pot each morning. Some snacks were out to stave off hunger until you drove to your breakfast spot. Can't walk from here as it's on the side of a cliff. Public spaces are quite lovely and I felt like I was leasing a room at a museum, that finely detailed. Overall, worth the money.

If you want the experience of staying in a beautiful Victorian mansion on a bluff above the Mississippi River this is the place. We stayed in the room known as the library. I had the best nights sleep away from home. Simon yhe owner has done so much work in rehabbing the place. He is also very knowledgeable about the history of the mansion and the town. Had a very nice breakfast also. Thank you.

First off, this place is so beautiful. Located within walking distance of everything. Simon, the host is so friendly and accommodating. Such a unique experience! We loved every second of it. He told us stories of where all the furniture pieces came from & a little history of the house.

Very disappointed. For such a well known location terrible experience, house full of underage girls 13&14 smoking vapes and ****, and they were able to stay there for free due to a family member being the cleaner. Extremely disappointed!

My wife picked a weekend stay for us at The Hancock House while I was away on a business trip. So I basically had no input but I like to stay in the Dubuque area when we are visiting Galena. Wow. The Hancock House did not disappoint. We parked on the street in from of the house. We were met by Simon as we rang to get in. Simon gave us some recommendations as we were looking to book a closeby dinner. We stayed in the Dollhouse room which has a very nice view overlooking the city. The jacuzzi with the view made our stay. Perfect relaxation from a long work week. Nice comfy bed, plenty of room in the bathroom. Immediate hot water in the shower. Had a very nice breakfast and Simon shared some history of The Hancock House. We met other guests and had a very nice conversation about where we were all from and headed for the day. The house itself is spectacular. The fireplace downstairs is a site to behold. As we've stayed in Dubuque plenty of times before, my only regret is that we hadn't picked The Hancock House on any of our previous trips. My wife made a good call and we will be staying at The Hancock House on our next trip to Dubuque.

My husband and I booked a two-night stay for a getaway weekend, and we were not disappointed with this experience in any way. Simon and his family go out of their way to make guests feel comfortable and at ease. The home is elegantly appointed with loving care in all of the period details. Hot water aplenty for the jet tub and a large, cozy bed made our time in the Library Suite one we would like to repeat again next year.

It is like staying overnight in a museum. The antiques are beautiful, wood work is restored brilliantly. There are several rooms with different motifs. We stayed in the train room - 3rd floor, newly remodeled bathroom with claw foot tub. The views were amazing. There is only breakfast on the weekends, but there are several options in downtown that have great food & are within walking distance if you can do stairs. I am excited to try another room soon.

A wonderful historical house, looks like it's over 100 years old, but all the modern comforts and amenities. Stayed in the Library - highly recommended and very comfortable king bed. Met with Simon and learned the amazing history of the mansion. We will be back.

Beautiful B&B with spectacular views and clean comfortable accommodations! Owner is involved with a great review of local history at breakfast with all the guests seated together at the table. Close to everything in Dubuque and tri-state area. Can walk downtown from steps leading directly between the house on the bluff and downtown or an easy drive.

We had an amazing time at the Hancock House! This authentic Victorian mansion is well furnished and immaculate thanks to its owner and host Simon and his charming housekeeper Ellie. Taking our morning tea on the veranda was delightful with spectacular views of the city and the river. Simon makes this beautiful home so comfortable and welcoming it's difficult to leave for the many adventures around Dubuque.

We had a wedding in town and many of our family members stayed at the Hancock House together. The rooms and decor were clean and very unique. Simon was very welcoming and shared the history of the house while we ate a delicious hot breakfast (weekends only). It is a very old mansion and many things like doors are original but well maintained. Street parking and a beautiful view of the city.
