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.

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!

everything about this b&b was amazing! beautiful design, incredible breakfast, great vibe, great location. The bed was too soft for both my husband and I sadly, so our sleep wasn't as great as we hoped, but this is totally a personal preference, everything else was amazing and very thoughtful!

Cozy stay in West Loop. Like an Airbnb but better because you get a freshly made breakfast every morning. They weren’t that accommodating with holding our luggage for the day but other than that great stay!
