Ruebel Hotel

Great old time atmosphere. Great service. Beds and Pillows are very comfortable. Convenient to music venues , shops, restaurants, Aerie's Sky Lift and Various bars. Our first time staying at The Ruebel, and will not be our last. Bon Voyage

My friend and I were doing a girls weekend for her granddaughters birthday and booked a weekend here. Check in was a breeze, desk clerk was super nice and professional. Loved our room, it faced the main drag. We woke up Saturday morning to the smell of bacon all through the hotel. When the dining room opened we ate breakfast. The sausage gravy was very good, biscuits baked just right, fried egg was on point, oj was good. The bath towels were some of the best I've ever encountered in a hotel - large, soft, thick. All of the staff we encountered were very pleasant and helpful. Only thing I would recommend would be a 2nd trash can in the room. Will definitely be back.

The Ruebel Hotel is one of the oldest and quaint buildings I have ever stayed at. Located on the main drag of Grafton, Illinois this was a weekend where eagles and I got to make each others acquaintance. Get up early and try to find where the visiting raptors might be nesting for the night as they prepare to go fishing.

I took my sister to Grafton for a quick 1 night stay/getaway for her birthday. The Ruebel was very clean and quaint. It is interesting to me that there is not staff on site 24/7 but that wouldn’t keep me from staying again. It was a Monday which most things were closed in Grafton on a Monday in November. I was disappointed Abigail’s bar was closed as I heard such great things about it, but makes sense as most other places were closed also. Roxie who said she works in the bar was there and super sweet to check us in. The room they had designated for us (#10) was very small and noisy as it faced the street, (seemed more of a standard room vs superior room I paid for) so when asked she was kind enough to relocate us. She gave us an interesting tour and we had our pick of “superior” class rooms as there was only one other room rented for the night. We stayed in room #11 also known as “Abigail’s room.” I wouldn’t necessarily say anything paranormal happened, but I would say we both heard footsteps running up and down the halls and distant voices in the middle of the night and she also saw the bed sheets move on their own as if someone walked by and brushed up against them. The air conditioner didn’t seem to be the coldest either in that room. The hotel is walking distance to many places including Aeries winery which was fun with the sky tour gondalas and sky coaster. Over all we were happy with the stay and will be back again.
