Don Q Inn Dodgeville

“I’m a big fan of quirky, kitschy Americans spots - and this definitely tops the list! This place is a destination unto itself, and the central location is optimal for visiting area landmarks like Taliesin, House on the Rock, Governor Dodge State Park and was an easy drive after spending a day in Galena and Chestnut Mountain Resort for sunset. The large central lobby fireplace surrounded by antique barber chairs is unique and inviting! The continental hot breakfast is definitely appreciated. As a travel advisor wanting to show off more of the “Fantasuite” rooms, the managers were gracious to show us around a few of the unoccupied themed rooms. The massive C-97 plane on the front lawn is such a wild draw too! Great indoor / outdoor pool with an indoor hot tub that overlooks the quiet forest. Overall, would happily stay again and send more folks out this way!”

“Absolutely loved staying at the Don Q. We did one of the Fantasy suites, the Cave, and I highly recommend! There is a lot of history in the hotel itself, staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, hotel is super clean (not just sterile), pool area is very enjoyable. Prices are not expensive and location is 15 mins from a number of attractions.”

“I’m giving this place absolutely 5/5 stars!!! I’ve been here twice, and each time has been amazing. I first had the cave room about a year ago, and then recently stayed in the Geisha Gardens room! Both were absolutely beautiful, the only slight issue we had with the gardens room was that there weren’t a ton of outlets (specifically ones close to the bed). I needed to charge my phone and watch, and my friend also needed to charge their phone. We only had two outlets, but not a big deal. We made things work. The bathtub was super cool and jetted, super nice lighting, and I LOVE the themes of the rooms. Super cute!”

“My wife and I enjoyed our stay here. We were able to stay in a different themed room each night. Night #1 was the cave, #2 was northern lights and #3 was up, up and away. The breakfast was blah and the whirlpool didn't work in the cave room but it was nice they had one in each room. They also had an outdoor and indoor pool and whirlpool. They had a game room on the 3rd floor and checkers in the lobby along with some old barber chairs you could sit in. Good location. Easy to get to house on the rock and cave of the mounds. Cool too!”

“My grandson and I stayed at the hotel during a road trip. Although the hotel was showing it's age a little, it was still very comfortable and cozy. I enjoyed the vintage furniture and displays, and touring the airplane parked right in the yard was a highlight. The pool was refreshing, and they had a good breakfast center in the morning. The owner was very friendly, and spent some time talking to us about the plane.”

“I had an amazing stay at the Don Q and couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff stood out for being incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely supportive—they went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The amenities were just as impressive. The pool and hot tub were spotless and well-maintained, making it easy to relax and unwind after a long day. It’s clear that cleanliness and guest comfort are a top priority here. The rooms were also fantastic—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. Overall, the Don Q exceeded my expectations in every way. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay!”
