Galena, United States - July 15, 2026 / Goldmoor Inn /
GALENA, IL, July 15, 2026- Goldmoor Inn, a four-star luxury Galena bed and breakfast situated on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River Valley, has announced the launch of its full mid-summer season program. The announcement encompasses an updated seasonal dining menu at Edge by Goldmoor Inn, spa availability, and full access to the property's 18 uniquely appointed accommodations. The inn, located eight miles south of historic downtown Galena, Illinois, positions the season as the strongest opportunity yet for couples seeking a dedicated countryside retreat.
A Ranked Dining Experience Anchors the Summer Offer
Edge by Goldmoor Inn, rated the number one restaurant in Galena on TripAdvisor, has released its summer menu ahead of the peak travel season. The menu reflects a commitment to seasonal, chef-driven cooking. Standout dishes include Foie Gras Crème Brulee, a Maine Lobster Tail served with chanterelle and corn bisque, and the property's celebrated Beef Wellington, which has held its place as the restaurant's signature dish across multiple seasons.
The dining room overlooks the Mississippi River Valley, offering unobstructed views that complement the kitchen's output in a way few restaurants in the region can replicate. The restaurant operates Thursday through Monday from 5 to 8 PM and serves a gourmet breakfast delivered directly to each guest's accommodation every morning.
Chef's Table and Culinary Access
For guests seeking a closer look at the kitchen, the property's Chef's Table seats up to eight and is positioned directly across from the main service line. Diners gain candid access to the kitchen team and are offered samples and conversation about technique and ingredients throughout the evening.
18 Accommodations Across Three Distinct Property Types
The inn's Galena lodging portfolio includes 13 luxury suites in the castle-inspired main building, two log cabins, and three private cottages. No two accommodations share the same layout, theme, or view. Suites in the main building range from the Mississippi Suite, which frames the river valley through oversized picture windows and a corner whirlpool tub, to the Chef's Quarters, a Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired A-frame suite positioned above the kitchen with a private outdoor deck.
Core Amenities Consistent Across All Rooms
Regardless of accommodation type, every room at the property includes:
Private indoor whirlpool tub for two
Gas fireplace
King-size bed
Kitchenette with microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker
Private outdoor space (deck, balcony, or porch)
Heated towel rack
Private dining area for in-room breakfast service
Room rates average $375 per night, with reservations accepted seven days a week from 8 AM to 10 PM. Couple-specific packages are available at check-in and include options combining room stays, spa services, roses, and sparkling wine.
Spa Services and the Case for a Two-Night Stay
The on-site spa offers Swedish, deep-tissue, and hot stone massages from nationally certified therapists, available in 60 or 90-minute sessions. Treatments can be booked individually or as side-by-side couples' sessions. Due to consistent demand during the summer months, the property recommends scheduling spa services at the time of room reservation.
