About this property

Ulysses Suites, Suite 204

About this space
Ulysses Suites has just been completed inside the historic J. G. Schmohl building in the heart of downtown Galena, located at 213 to 217 S. Main Street. We have 7 suites and a beautiful lobby that are modern and luxurious, with lots of historical character and texture as a nod to its previous existence as the Grant Hotel from 1895 to 1933. Suite 204 is a European botanical themed room on the 2nd floor. It has a king bed and a beautiful balcony!
The space
The J. G. Schmohl building was built around 1850. From 1895 to 1932, Mr. Schmohl ran the Grant Hotel in this building. We have loving renovated this well-deserved building with a nod to the Grant Hotel from the turn of the century. We have 3 two bedroom/2 bath suites, 2 one bedroom/1 bath suites and 2 studios. Having a special family/friend gathering? You can rent the entire 7 suites that will accommodate 21 people. Ulysses Suites main entrance is at 214 S. Bench Street and is also accessible between 213 and 215 S. Main Street. Ulysses Suites has been awarded the Galena Excellence in Historic Preservation Designation in 2020.

Beautiful Room and Great Location!

The room is beautifully set up and decorated. The balcony is perfect for coffee and quiet time. You can access the main road from a staircase in the “back” of the building and Bench St. from the “front”. Staff is onsite and very prompt in response. Overall a perfect stay.

Unbelievable Experience!

This was by far my favorite VRBO experience ever! The building itself was spotless, beautiful and perfectly located. The suite my friend and I stayed in for our quick girls getaway weekend was clean and extremely well kept. We were greeted with a small gift in the room. The smell even when walking into the building was amazing! Everything was branded (which was a nice touch!) and everything we needed was in the room and thoughtfully placed. I am someone who is extremely particular and detail oriented and I was absolutely blown away by how lovely this suite was! We will most definitely return. I don't think I could stay anywhere else in Galena!!
