About Hawley Bed & Breakfast

Step back in time to a gentler age when hospitality was an art and life was unhurried. When a person could while away an hour on the front porch with coffee and newspaper...without a shred of guilt or when winter nights were spent in bed under a cozy quilt or down comforter.

The Hawley Bed and Breakfast at the historic victorian Cultra House captures this spirit from the past with the sophistication of today. We offer you an uptown experience while you are in Lincoln.

Allow yourself to be pampered at Lincoln's Hawley bed & breakfast during your stay. Your relaxing stay includes a good night's sleep in a comfortable bed and a hearty breakfast to get your day started out right. Enjoy our home and make it your home while in Lincoln.

The Hawley Bed & Breakfast is a 1893 victorian house located in the Hawley Historic District, a neighborhood next to downtown Lincoln, NE and the University of Nebraska city campus. The house was originally built as 2 victorian town homes.

The property, then a 4 apartment complex, was purchased in 1993 by John & Peggy Struwe. In 2004 the 4 apartments were converted to a single family home. Upgrades were made to replace 4 old furnaces with 4 new energy effecient furnaces, the window air conditioners were replaced with 4 central air conditioners, the water heater was replaced with a new energy effecient water heater, and all walls were insulated along with the attic. Many other things have been done and can be viewed during your stay. The bed and breakfast was opened in the spring of 2006 with one suite on first floor. The 2 suites on 2nd floor are still under construction.

Your innkeepers, John & Peggy Struwe
