Anniversary trip
Totally awesome place. If you want it they pretty much have it. Good all around everything. The only thing i found that kind of bummed me out was we had to get a plugin adapter for charging our cell phones in our room, but we just stopped at walmart just a minute up the road for one. But we will definstely be back.

Charming getaway.
Hotel Julien is simply lovely, located in the beautiful old river-town of Dubuque, Iowa.
The hotel has old world charm, reasonable prices, clean, specious rooms and an excellent adjoining restaurant.

Hotel Julien was perfect!
What a beautiful hotel! Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and afforded us a wonderful view of the cathedral and the bluff. The lobby and Riverboat Lounge were beautifully decorated, keeping the historic nature of the hotel in mind. We walked everywhere - museums, churches, shopping, restaurants - the hotel was so conveniently located. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

New weekend destination, great all around!
This property was by far one of the best I have ever stayed at. The atmosphere was so inviting. The historical information online was so amazing. Everything we needed was either in the hotel or within a stones throw. The bed seemed like it was too firm when we first tried it out, but ended up being the first time I have been pain free after a night's sleep in forever! The hot tub and pool area was clean and unlike other properties we have stayed at was not full of children in the hot tub without parents!
