Top University of Dubuque Hotel Reviews

Dubuque Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"The property has recently changed hands, and the new owners/operators are in the midst of that transition. The property was clean and the room photos were accurate. I would recommend to the operators that they re-install the closets and hangers; luckily, I only stayed for one night but if the trip had been longer that would have been a big disappointment and disadvantage for the stay. We didn't eat breakfast at the property, so I don't have an opinion on that, but the food area was clean and looked to be sufficient to serve the guests. I wish the new owners well on this endeavor and I would stay at the property again if I'm ever in Dubuque."

Days Inn by Wyndham Dubuque

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Will stay here again"

Holiday Inn Dubuque/Galena by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Overall experience was great! I had played baseball all day at the field of dreams, and need the night to sleep somewhere with my family. The staff was very friendly and helpful."

Redstone Inn And Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property, friendly and helpful staff, delicious breakfast"

Tesla MedBed Center, East Dubuque

10/10 Excellent

"I would recommend this hotel to anyone who needs a very quiet place to get away, with a comfortable bed with nice linens, a lovely view (beyond the vast parking lot), and close proximity to Dubuque and Galena, where there are nice restaurants, cafes, fun bars, historical places to visit, and great sightseeing. I grew up in Dubuque, and loved it while there from age eight until I married at age 22. Lived in Chicago, in Portland, Oregon, and moved back to Iowa (Iowa City) when I was 35. I have loved this area my entire life, and now, in my 70s, long to move back where my siblings stayed as I traveled the world. This hotel afforded me rest and calm! 💖"

Hilton Garden Inn Dubuque Downtown

The Hancock House
