The Publishing House B&B

exceeded expectations, more boutique hotel than B & B

Such a beautiful place! We loved it

This was an incredible experience. I was only there one night and wanted to stay longer. The ladies that made breakfast were so incredible and the food was amazing. Will be staying here again!!

not inexpensive, but everything is higher priced in Chicago area; close to United Center & Union Station, so great location; very nice place; much better than a hotel

Staff, food, bed…everything was superb We’ll be back soon for sure

It was the coolest place I’ve ever stayed at in the USA. I loved the interior design, the attention to detail and the atmosphere there. Loved the size of the room. Also, really enjoyed the breakfast! It was delicious and I especially liked that it was cooked for each person, so less wasteful than a conventional buffet. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Terrific stay!

Super nice staff and clean rooms. Really neat and unique place to stay. Very relaxing

On top of the beautiful decor, live plants, and unique rooms, the butler's pantry as perfect for grabbing and evening pot of tea to enjoy in the great room. Everything struck a great balance between high-end hotel and cozy B&B.

Loved this place - little gem that you'd never notice from the street. Great breakfast and the beds were good too.

Loved!

I cannot say enough good things about this place! Will be staying here every time I visit Chciago from now on. Perfect stay!

Very clean room, friendly staff

This was my fourth time staying at Publishing House, and I hope to return again soon (that is, when it isn't booked solid)! I love it at Publishing House: an ideal location, quiet, comfortable, and with the best possible breakfasts in a beautiful common area. My favorite place to stay in Chicago, really. The staff is also very friendly, and rooms are so beautifully appointed. Thank you, Publishing House!

Unfortunately, the main reason for my booking a stay there was the description of soundproofed rooms which couldn't be further from the truth. There was noise coming from all angles; banging from upstairs and next door, doors slamming from adjacent rooms, conversations heard through the walls, gurgling water from the over the bed heating unit and constant beeping and delivery drivers outside the window. Due to this, we never got a decent nights sleep during our stay. Now this description was from Hotels.com, but if it is not accurate, then the establishment should review and correct it. In addition, all communication with the staff can only be done via call or text. Neither of these methods ever produced a response. After an unanswered email, voice message and face to face request with one of the staff, requesting a late checkout to support a late train home, I was still left with no response. When I finally was able to speak with the owner, she reluctantly only let us stay an extra 30 minutes, claiming that they were quite busy. While we were allowed to leave our luggage and wait in the common area, I realized that "quite busy" meant taking down Christmas decorations in an unoccupied bed & breakfast. Pretty lame.

The Publishing House was easily one of our favorite stays in Chicago. The rooms and common areas are super comfortable, tastefully decorated and have a unique charm. We appreciate the one-of-a-kind feeling and personal touches. Breakfast was lovely, all the staff were thoughtful and kind. We look forward to returning.

Nice design, great location, fantastic staff

This was my first time ever booking at a bed & breakfast and it was amazing!!! The staff were so helpful & great. The breakfast was very delicious. My room was perfect & clean. Everyone was so lovely. Can’t wait to go back!!!

Wonderful staff, beautiful hotel and great breakfast!

It was wonderful! We’ll definitely stay again!
