The historic Hotel Nauvoo, operated for four generations by the Kraus family, houses nine artfully appointed guest rooms in the style of the approximately 170 year-old building without sparing any modern convenience. This famous building dates back to the Mormon period of Nauvoo history, built in part by J. J. Brendt, a Latter Day Saint, and completed by Adam Swartz, a German immigrant.
Historic Hotel Nauvoo is located in the heart of Nauvoo's attractions. We are only one block from Nauvoo's Temple Square in an ideal location amidst the quaint Nauvoo shops that will allow you to spend time enjoying the simpler things in life. Discount coupons for breakfast at our Grandpa John's Cafe available at check in. (See the bottom of this page for more details). Tour the more than forty recreated historic sites and wander down to the Nauvoo Historical Society Weld House Museum for an overview of area history or take a free carriage ride to many historic sites to watch craftsmen of years gone by and view the many landscaped gardens.
For nature lovers and the fitness inclined: make sure to visit the Nauvoo State Park, the Mississippi River, Great River Road Golf Club and see the eagles fishing at the Keokuk Dam. Families will enjoy visits to our many historic churches, carriage rides through Historic Nauvoo and horseback riding for the novice and experienced.

You can also order just a sandwich with sides of your choice. Whatever you choose, you can top it off with mouth-watering desserts, including hand-dipped ice cream, milkshakes, pies and cookies. And don't miss Grandpa John's Monday evening all-you can-eat buffet. Grandpa John's Cafe is quaint, ultra-clean, and the quality and quantity of food is exceptional. There is plenty of seating.
