April 29, 2013
We stayed at the Welcome Inn Manor a few weeks ago, and had a marvelous time. We stayed in the Nat Cole suite and felt pampered beyond belief by the beautiful room, huge jacuzzi tub, rain shower, and amazingly inviting bed. Mel made breakfasts that were sensational - ask for the spicy sausage! Awesome! Easy access to and from the heart of Chicago, relaxing environment in the B&B, and Mel and Angie's kindness yielded a great stay. When next in Chicago we definitely plan on returning!

4.8 out of 5Visiting our son at UChicago
March 05, 2013
This was our 3rd or 4th stay at the WelcomeInnManor. We love to location because it is so close to UChicago where our son attends. It takes us about 5 minutes to get to the school. Mell and Angie have truly made us feel that this is our home away from home. They could not be more gracious. Last year on a cold February day, Mell made a delicious soup in the crock pot that was available to quests whenever they felt the need for something warm and comforting. It is really nice to sit in the living room and visit with our son without the distraction of restaurants or roommates. We will continue to stay with Mell and Angie whenever we visit Chicago!

We had a wonderful stay at the Welcome Inn Manor, and the biggest attraction by far was the innkeepers themselves, Mell and Angie. They are both great conversationalists, and gave graciously of their time to make our stay comfortable.
4.8 out of 5Wonderful Holiday 2012
January 05, 2013
Came and stayed here for Christmas 2012. It doesn't get any better than this! Comfortable, wonderful rooms rich with history. Mell, the Innkeeper, and his wife Angie truly made the 4 of us feel like it was our place. I've been to other B&B's and never felt quite comfortable enough to lounge around the main floor living room. Not here. Felt very comfortable. These are good people that will make you feel like family and go to the extra mile to make your stay more enjoyable. Mell offers rides to various local restaurants and music venues. Not necessarily the touristy areas but places that really give you truly a "local feel". Of course he will offer to take you to the more well-traveled areas (Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, etc). Oh, and the food he prepares for breakfast is very well prepared and hearty for a day of sightseeing. Oh, and the the other couple staying there were vegetarians and Mell will prepare special meals if that's a need you have. Tip:All the rooms are exceptional but the Nat King Cole room is second to none. Believe me. tl;dr - Awesome place. Awesome people. Awesome food. For the above rating for service, I wish we could put 6 stars to indicate just how much Mell and Angie go the extra mile to provide outstanding service.
