This was the perfect place for our family trip to Chicago. We enjoyed the cozy little apartment in 3R, with two doubles and a kitchenette. The location, on the Gold Coast was perfect, especially for morning joggers like us (we had great runs by the Lake). We've often peeked in the windows of the fabulous homes along the Gold Coast,...

We felt very fortunate to find an available room in this lauded B&B. If you look at the reviews here on TripAdvisor, you'll see they are highly rated. That's why I called them! And the hype is well deserved. Our stay was everything we hoped for. The interior features meticulously detailed woodwork, and both the house and the guest room... More

Let's just get this out of the way -- I hate B&Bs. Ruffly, filled with knick-knacks, uncomfortable beds, and quirky service. Flemish House is none of these things. In fact, it's one of the most wonderful places I've ever stayed. Elegant, comfortable, quiet, clean, spacious -- all of the things you fantasize about in a hotel room. All this, plus... More

A 5 night stay at the Flemish House was one of the highlights of a memorable trip to Chicago. The street is, as already described, serene and quiet. In fact, during an early morning walk, I spied a small cottontail dining on the greenery in the one of the street planters. The 2nd floor front room was bright and spacious... More

this was an amazing b&b. we loved it from the moment we walked in! it had a lovely calm air about it which was what we needed after our long flight. the owners are lovely, and we knew they were available if needed but we were just left to our own devices, which we liked. our room was huge, more...

Loved it here. Fantastic neighbourhood and the street is lined with beautiful houses, is very quiet yet a short walk to a bustling strip for eating, drinking, buying supplies or having a haircut. I agree with the other reviews about the house and its comfort. Our room was very attractive and spacious and the laundry in the basement very welcome... More

I was lucky enough to return to Chicago and of course made reservations here. The place is as wonderful as it was years ago ! Tom and Mike are as welcoming as I remember them. The street is still very quiet and peaceful. The place is so elegant and comfortable. This time we stayed in one of the front rooms... More

We stayed at Flemish house for four nights and it could not have been better. Our flight arrived early in the morning, Mike and Tom made sure our room was prepared early so we could have a place to clean up and relax upon our arrival. They gave us all the info we needed for transportation, places to see, expected... More

I guess everything has been said about the Flemish House: Wonderful host, very large and well equipped rooms, quiet (apart from the air-con noise of adjacent rooms and houses - even if your own one is down), ideal location. Two things that might be interesting: 1) We found the place ideal for a family with children older than say 7... More
