I love the old classic style. Obviously it’s a dated building, but that’s part of the charm that I appreciate about the inn. Very friendly renters and a beautiful dog that’s often in the lobby. We didn’t get a chance to check out the speak easy, but would love to another time.

This is a hidden gem. All the room have great character, and there is even a speakeasy in the basement that’s open on the weekend. The inn keepers are wonderful and available for any questions or recommendations you many want! Truly a wonderful experience.

This hotel has character for days! We really enjoyed our stay at Old Chicago Inn. It was clean and comfortable. Room 13 was really interesting too. The location was amazing for walking to Wrigley and there are many amazing restaurants nearby. The bed was a bit firm for us, but we were so busy during the day, we still slept well. Stay here! It was a great experience!

Comfy stay

Great location, not far to walk to Wrigley and super close to station for trains. Room was cold but Fred gave an extra blanket since he couldn’t adjust the air conditioning. Fred was the best, very helpful and super friendly. Other than being cold the room was comfortable and everything worked fine. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it.

We liked the unique qualities of the hotel and the neighborhood, and we had a court-facing room so it was quiet. Two comments to note: Towels - other than small hand towels - are not provided. And, although there is bread and toppings in the kitchen (along with other items), there is no toaster.

Perfect Location for Wrigley Field

This is a classic hotel. Building from the early 1920’s. Be sure to read room descriptions, as some rooms DO NOT have private bathrooms. There is a Prohibition Speakeasy in the basement, open to private members and hotel guests (ask for password at check-in). They use the Speakeasy for continental breakfast in the morning. Fred will check you in and is very personable. Parking is on street about a block away, you will get parking stickers at checkin. Only steps away from CTA Red Line. About 8 walking blocks from Wrigley Field

The old Chicago inn is a beautiful building with lots of lovely historic features. We had a room with a bathroom (3d) which felt small for 2 of us (bed was against the wall so not ideal for 2 people sharing and no space for bedside lights or bedside tables). The hotel is a lovely old quirky building so this is to be expected! Some of the other bedrooms were far larger and prettier with private bathrooms across the hall. I’d book again but choose to go for one of those rooms. Area felt safe and very close to transport links. There were local bars, cafes and restaurants and it was 25 mins to downtown and all major sites. Owner and general manager were both very friendly and helpful. I’d definitely stay again (but I’d request one of the other rooms!)

The space was old, as described. Our bed was pushed against a wall and the mattress was old/soft so not very comfy. When checking the room for belongings before we left, we found disgusting ketchup all along the wall. The description said there was a breakfast in room 13. There was not. It was in the normal place and it was fine. Our “private” bathroom was very difficult to latch, but it is an old building .check in was easy. We didn’t see or have contact with anyone, but didn’t need to.

Fácil acceso al metro y visitar la ciudad.

Es fácil de trasladarse desde el aeropuerto al hotel, no abría la habitación, pero muy amablemente me apoyaron tanto Virginia como Bill a configurar la clave para abrir la habitación. Una recomendación, es que hubiera variedad en el desayuno, ya que hace falta la proteína.

Charming, love that the place has history. My room came with a small living area and an assigned bathroom down the hall. All doors open with keypad which was awesome, didn't have to worry about losing my key. Mattress was comfortable. Owners were exceptional. Only note is the doors are loud so sometimes you can hear people coming and going, but mostly a non-issue. Would come again.
