All three of us loved the House of Two Urns. Wicker Park is a great place to be based in Chicago. And the Chambre des Amis was perfect for the three of us - two bedrooms off a common bathroom. All the rooms are comfortable and homely rather than luxurious but charming in a calm, understated way. The bathroom was... more

I stayed in the blue room and loved it! The B&B is in a charming, up-and-coming neighborhood in Chicago, and the location is convenient to mass transit and downtown. I had work in the IL Medical District, and could take either the expressway or city streets for the 15 minute car trip. The hostess, Kapra, is a dignified, pleasant person,... more

I booked at the online site for the 'House of Two Urns' with a deposit taken by Credit Card. I was very excited to be taking a trip to see my daughter. I then made airlines reservations. I sent my daughter the info. The next day telling me the room was not available. 'It's not my fault' and a link... more

The guest booked through a reservation software company with whom we are no longer a client. We have not used this company since January 2009. I contacted the guest immediately, apologized and explained we had no other rooms available. The company also apologized to her and has assured me that this will not happen in the future. I referred the...

The House of Two Urns is a meticulously kept, beautiful B&B in the heart of one of Chicago's "up-and-coming" neighborhoods. Unfortunately, "warm" is not an adjective we could ever use to describe our experience. From the moment of our arrival, the owner was brusque and frankly, a little scary. We were greeted with a long diatribe on proper parking (the... more

Management response from
Kapra Fleming, Owner

We e-mail guests confirmations that explain check-in and parking procedures. Guests will be ticketed on our block for parking without a residential permit, thus we provide a “Standing Zone” for guests to use for up to 30 minutes while checking in with us. There are two signs designating this spot right in front of the B&B. If we notice guests...

Kapra is a wonderfully hospitable hostess - welcoming, competent, and knowledgeable (arriving early on Day 1 I was immediately asked would I like a breakfast, then did I need any advice re Chicago). Great breakfasts, slept great, interesting and spacious garden. Always a fan of Chicago, I'm now an even bigger one more

The photos online do not do the house of two urns justice - it is a lovely place, with excellent facilities. It is also very well located for the train and close to many fantastic shops and restaurants. I have no hesitation in recommending it. more

My stay at the House of Two Urns was very pleasant. The guest rooms are separated from the owners' house by a stairway, and so this gives a lot of privacy. My room was very cozy, and though I would have preferred the private bath en suite, the bathroom was right across the hall. Everything is super clean and well... more

The House of Two Urns is a super place, so much more than just a bed and breakfast. We stayed in the Porzellanzimmer, which is snug for two but has all you need and your own bathroom across the hall. Kapra is a perfect host. Extremely helpful and attentive when you need her but leaves you to get on with... more

The House of Two Urns is in Wicker Park (or maybe Bucktown) north and west of the city core. It is not a luxury downtown hotel, nor does it wish to be. It is cute, comfortable, and definitely quirky. I loved it. Arriving at O'Hare, you can take a two dollar mass transit ride to the Division stop and walk... more

Unique rooms, good service. The roof deck and kitchen are both a real plus. I would absolutely stay there again. more
