Top Dubuque Hotel Reviews

Hotel Julien Dubuque

8/10 Good

"Great location for downtown activities"

Days Inn by Wyndham Dubuque

8/10 Good

"The room was clean but a little run down. There was ample parking. The staff was friendly. Only down fall was since we weren’t able to leave our luggage at the front desk bcuz we were early and I didn’t want my makeup to melt in the heat but c’est la vie. The bar was lively at night. The staff at the bar were nice with a wide variety of options. We didn’t use the pool but it was big, nice, and appeared clean. The patio they had around pool was also nice w a “fire pit” at some tables. Close to downtown. Breakfast was extremely basic like ur typical bread, bagel, etc. basic cereal, waffle maker, coffee, milk, juice, etc., yogurt, and some hard boiled eggs. That was it. All-in-all it wasn’t bad and we were only there for one night. So it suited our needs. However, I wouldn’t have stayed long term due to the busy foot traffic, which is called common courtesy (aka not disrupting ppl’s sleep bcuz u wanna be rude and obnoxious) and slamming doors all night. Def 3 out of 5 stars at best."

"The pool area was really nice. We had a lot of fun. The rooms were ok. Just normal rooms. I liked the temperature on the wall. Bathroom could've been a little updated. And the breakfast was not very good. And it was HOT everywhere. I would go back for the pool area. But that's about it."

Grand Harbor Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean and had amenities as expected. Knowing this property was recently bought and under new ownership I didn’t expect the high class, but it was very clean, staff was friendly and the property was well maintained. The waterpark definitely needs some maintenance but was still fun and all in all clean and sanitary. The arcade had all sorts of games and a cool skittles machine! Breakfast was delicious, the pancake machine was a tad slow, but otherwise, tasty. My only true request is a way to enter the property from the Riverwalk, once you exit the property before or after restaurant hours, you can not re-enter unless you go around to the front. All rear doors are locked. Otherwise, we had a wonderful stay, and look forward to a return to see what the new owners bring to the hotel!"

Redstone Inn And Suites

10/10 Excellent

"First, if you're staying here, it's because it's a gorgeous, old mansion and that appeals to you. The amenities are not the same as a Hilton, but this place has other advantages. The current owner, Robert, is a great host who will make sure you feel welcome and at home. I stayed during the time of the "heat dome". My room had a window AC unit that kept the room comfortable. I was traveling alone and had sufficient room for my luggage, but each room is different in size. That's how these places are unique compared to a cookie-cutter hotel. The furniture is antique but did have some modern amenities like TVs with streaming capabilities and coffee in the room. The bed was as comfortable as any in the chain hotels. The bathroom was small but adequate: good shower etc. The breakfast included a hot entre as well as choices of pastries, fruit, cereals etc. And unlike the bland breakfast rooms of the hotel chains, this breakfast is served by a gracious host in a Victorian dining room that is absolutely stunning. The location is also great as it's right downtown and there's a friendly pub just across the street. I would stay there again."
