Why a Bed & Breakfast?

There are several factors differentiating a B&B lodging experience and the Welcome Inn Manor from conventional hotels. The overwhelming advantage is personalized service, an individualized decor, the comfort and access to a beautifully appointed historic home, friendly proprietors who can provide guests with personal insight—and make them feel right at home. A B&B is the overall delivery of an "experience" rather than just “a room for the night” lodge. Guests typically seem to enjoy the warmth and freedom of staying overnight in an actual home and many want to learn the (real) history about Chicago's beginnings. Many visitors seeking romance take pleasure in the enlightening and insightful experience of weekend getaway- and indeed a B&B is unlike the stuffiness of hotel institutions.

Research indicates that less than 10% of the population has ever stayed overnight at a Bed and Breakfast home. Travelers are more curious than ever to do something different when traveling to large, overwhelming urban cities. By contrast, a B&B is typically off the beaten path of conventional tourism. Good innkeepers work hard to insure that the environment is friendly, accessible and warm. B&B's are very popular in the New England and Western United States and also throughout Europe. B&B popularity has increased in Chicago and growing in the double digits because travelers and locals are looking for the kind of uniqueness that historic homes seem to offer.

Mell and Angie are naturals at being completely at your service and they are committed to making visitors feel right at home.
