Hotel Julien Dubuque

Hotel Julien Dubuque

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful historic hotel with "old world charm," named after the first permanent European settler in Iowa, Julien Dubuque. The rooms are spacious and exceptionally clean with modern accessories (coffee marker, TV). Caroline's restaurant, located in the building and named after a local who took over her husband's ice cutting business in 1875, is a wonderful, cozy restaurant offering filets, salmon, etc. cooked to perfection with slight variations to the usual. With reasonable rates, Hotel Julien is also within walking distance of businesses and the aquarium museum downtown!"

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed one night on a Saturday. Property is large but secluded right off the main road. Room was nice sized with large TV. Pool was closed but pool area looked very nice. Went to attached lounge for food which was ok. Bar a little rowdy but Iowa football was on. Breakfast choices were good. Was able to park right outside our room."
