"Peace and quiet in an elegant setting."
Fodor's
"It's no wonder lovey-dovey couples are a big part of this hotel's clientele; everything here—from the roaring fireplace in the lobby to the cozy rooms' Victorian-style furnishings—says romance."

Insight Guides
"Tucked into a residential neighborhood between Lincoln Park and Wrigley Field, this option is modest, rather than majestic, but quite comfortable. ."
Gayot
"Although it was built in the style of an English manor, this boutique hotel doesn't limit guests to afternoon tea and crumpets."
Zagat
4.0
"This “inviting” inn tucked away in the Lakeview neighborhood has a “great Chicago feel to it” and is a “nice change from chain hotels"."
