House 5863 is not your typical B&B. We are different. Here you will find no Victorian decor or rockers on a scenic porch. Rather, we are an urban, hip place to stay in the heart of Chicago's north side. Our style is contemporary comfort. Our rooms are clean, cool and most of all restive Our approach is more hands off than hands on. We focus on providing for all of your needs behind the scenes without disrupting your stay. Common areas are designed for casual living. The fully-equipped kitchen offers continental style breakfast with all the basics to allow you to serve yourself on your own schedule and at your own pace. Our garden and deck areas offer a quiet respite for relaxed joy. House 5863 is a City of Chicago licensed bed & breakfast establishment. This means we have undergone a rigorous building and license process including annual building inspections, health department inspection and fire department inspection. BE CAREFUL when booking reservations at establishments that are not licensed such as those offered by AirBNB and on Craigslist - you have no guarantee that the property is as described or that the room will be available when you arrive. More importantly, you do not know if the property is safe.House 5863 is a proud member of the Chicago Bed & Breakfast Association, Choose Chicago, the Andersonville Chamber of Commerce, and the Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce.
