The Publishing House Bed and Breakfast in Chicago occupies a beautifully restored 1909 Free Methodist Publishing House, now reimagined as a literary-inspired boutique stay. Each of its 11 rooms pays homage to notable Chicago authors, complete with personal libraries and reading nooks by the fireplace. Communal spaces (like the light-filled Great Room, cinema-style Print Room, and cozy library) blend mid-century design, bold art, and a grand piano to evoke the atmosphere of a private literary salon. Add to that homemade breakfasts, freshly baked cookies, and the warmth of pugs greeted at the door, and it becomes much more than lodging, it’s a retreat that reads like a living story.
