Our first B&B experience - Wow!!

The Mandolin Inn is our first B&B experience. Wow@ What an impressive combination of art, architecture and hospitality! The Amanda room is a serene retreat, very homey and we love the decor. The mansion is beautiful: the woodwork; the leaded/stained glass; ththe antiqie furnishings; the verandah. The Mandolin Inn is a true gem. The location is great - conveniently within walking distanve from most attractions in downtown Dubuque. We came to celebrate our 13th anniversary. Amy is a gracious hostess and makes you feel welcome. The breakfasts are delicious. Cinderella and Mokie (kitties) are so cute and friendly. We would definately recommend the Mandolin Inn and look forward to a return trip. We really loved it here! Amy you're great.

Honeymoon in Dubuque

We enjoyed the beautiful Amanda Room, the srene atmosphere and excellent accommodations. It is luxurious and so special for our honeymoon in Dubuque. We move on to Ireland for a week and the to Salt Lake City and the home to Australia - Melbourne. The accommodations and superb breakfasts make this one of the best B&B's in the world,
