New Year’s Eve Party

We’re gonna party like it’s … 2025! Ring in the New Year at the DeSoto House Hotel at our annual end of year party. Doors open to our Courtyard Restaurant turned dance floor at 9:30pm. Travis Hosette will be singing all of Frank Sinatra’s hits (and more)! For $49, you’ll receive appetizers, party favors, and a champagne toast at midnight! The last song will be played at 12:15am.

To find the Courtyard, you can enter the main entrance of the hotel, walk through the lobby to the elevators on the right, and take them down to level “G”. If coming from the back of the hotel, you can enter the Commerce Street entrance and walk straight ahead into the Courtyard. For an accessible entrance, please enter through the employee parking garage.

Sitting within the Courtyard is limited and offered on a first come, first serve basis with no holds. Additional seating will be provided in ajoining rooms and upstairs along the catwalk of the hotel. Some seats, inside and outside of the Courtyard, may have a blocked view of Travis Hosette. Bring your dancing shoes and prepare to spend the night twirling on the dance floor!

A cash bar will be available in the Generals’ Restaurant lobby, just off the Courtyard. Bar closes at 12:15am. Please drink responsibly.

There is street parking surrounding the hotel, including two cash lots behind the hotel on Commerce Street. Parking in our attached Parking Garage is limited to those spending the night at the hotel. To book a ride back to your lodging, please contact your place of lodging for possible shuttle services or the Generals’ Express of Galena (Galena’s only black car service).
