The Mandolin Inn, Dubuque, Iowa

Begin your day with a gourmet breakfast as sumptuous as the room in which it is served. The dining room of the Mandolin Inn is thought by many to be the most magnificent in Dubuque. An artist has painted a fantasy forest above the oak paneling. The beveled glass china cabinet stretches from floor to ceiling on one wall. The superb fireplace, detailed with Italian tiles, rests in the corner.

Pampered visitors relax at day's end in the parlor or music room. In fair weather you may enjoy refreshments on the veranda. Our guest rooms are meticulously decorated and a perfect place to kindle (or rekindle) romance. Each room is uniquely furnished and decorated with beautiful period antiques.
