It is a very historical place. It was pricey for the room itself. Walls are very thin and room next to us was very loud. Shower door didn’t work and no place or hooks to put things in the bathroom,

Hotel Julien Dubuque is a historic landmark. A hotel has been at 2nd and Main in Dubuque since before Iowa became a state. It is a small city hotel, and the room rates are competitive with chain motels, but it is a distinctly better experience than most. If you go to Dubuque and you need a place to stay, experience an actual old school hotel.
