Great location convenient to downtown Galena. Bartender was super nice - very kind and helpful. Rooms were good size, but couldn't get the humidity out of the air even with the a/c on. Breakfast had a good selection of eggs/pancakes/yogurt and cereals.

Wonderful stay

Despite the less- than- ideal cell reception, our stay at the Wyndham was amazing! We usually stay elsewhere but due to the close proximity to the golf course, we chose this hotel, instead. We were happy with our decision and would absolutely stay here again. Service was fantastic and the rooms were more than adequate.

A little out of town but very nice!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Wyndham Garden Hotel in Galena! It is located a bit out of town, so you do need to drive to visit downtown Galena, but there is ample parking available. This hotel feels newer, was very clean, and the service was excellent at check-in, checkout, and when we needed dinner recommendations. Our kids had fun at the pool and playing with the life-size chess set. The breakfast buffet was standard Wyndham fare, with a few hot options (eggs, sausage, and breakfast potatoes), the pancake machine, and lots of cold/prepackaged foods available (bagels, yogurts, etc.). The only hiccups I experienced were that the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great, and the trash in the breakfast bar wasn’t emptied regularly, so it was overflowing. But if those are the only concerns I had, then I’d say it was a pretty good stay, and I’d stay here again.
