Lorraine and Jan have a wonderful, homey, inn that feels welcoming and comfortable. The decorations and antiques provide a country charmed feeling. We stayed in the smaller singe room. We peaked into the larger rooms with sitting areas, fireplaces, jacuzzis and they LOOKED AMAZING! Most of the enjoyment comes from the hospitality of Lorraine and Jan. They have been doing this for 37 years and they do it as a business but also because they love serving people. Lorraine is great about making sure people have what they need and urges them to ask them for whatever. They make themselves available. If you want to chat while you have a yummy provided breakfast, you will have fun with this delightful couple who know the ropes of Galena and are glad to share them with you. P.S. I really appreciated the little coffee/tea bar and mini fridge up on the bedroom level where we could grab a coffee and bring it back to our bedroom to sip while waking up and getting ready to go downstairs for breakfast!

Lorraine and Jan were kind and welcoming and we enjoyed our stay at their B&B. My husband and I had the bungalow behind the garage, which was the perfect private setting away from other guests. The bungalow has a kitchenette with a sink, fridge, coffee maker, and microwave. The hosts left a variety of snacks in the room for us, including a couple of bags of microwave popcorn, some homemade chocolate chip cookies, Oreos, and assorted candy/chocolate which was a nice touch. There is also hot chocolate and coffee in the room. The bungalow also has an electric fireplace, which is nice. And a SMART TV so you can login and watch shows on your favorite apps. Breakfast in the morning was great. They serve between 8-10 a.m. and did not require us to be seated at a certain time. The cinnamon pecan French toast was delightful! Along with the homemade banana bread, which my husband enjoyed so much, they bagged up the leftovers and sent them home with him. This was a very enjoyable stay away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Galena, while still a short drive into town (less than 10 minutes). We would definitely stay there again!

I cannot say enough about our stay at Belle Aire Mansion. Loraine and Jun are the most charming hosts that I have ever had. The BnB is the best. Her breakfast were terrific. They were both very entertaining and valued our visit with them. They were very appreciative of our visit and I would not hesitate to go back there again

A Gracious Gem
Belle Aire is a gracious old mansion kept in pristine condition by Lorraine and Jan who have operated it for decades. Some of the rooms are enormous, others a bit more intimate. Lorraine puts her heart into her breakfasts, which are not only delicious, but also presented with a certain flair. As you approach from Hwy 20, you may wonder about the business development nearby. I can assure you that is all quite irrelevant once you step in the front door.

Lovely B&B with great hosts
My husband and I had a wonderful time in Galena. Lorraine and her husband were perfect hosts who made us feel at home. Breakfast was excellent. The B&B is not walking distance from downtown, but there are shops and a good Mexican restaurant nearby. Highly recommended!
