From the glazed tile roof of the turret to the mosaic floor of the veranda, every aspect is richly detailed and beautifully crafted. 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. Each room is uniquely furnished and decorated with beautiful period antiques. Within walking distance of the Mandolin Inn are two hospitals, three colleges and numerous cultural attractions, shops and restaurants. During your stay you are within easy driving distance of a myriad of sites and activities which are sure to be of interest. Golf, downhill and cross country skiing are available, along with the Heritage Bike and Hiking Trails and the Shenadoah Horseback Riding Center.
