Visit Chicago and Discover the World

The House of Two Urns Bed and Breakfast has been Chicago’s B&B in Wicker Park for 25 years, offering a reasonably priced alternative to Chicago hotels in a safe, quiet, north side neighborhood.  This historic Chicago Bed and Breakfast in a two-flat brownstone offers all the comforts of home now with only PRIVATE bathrooms;  just 5 minutes from downtown and easy access to public transit at the Division stop on the Blue line subway direct from O’Hare airport.

We host many international guests, who come for the first time to explore our world class city and want a place to really call home; many of our guests are visiting family or friends, who live in the surrounding West Town areas of Wicker Park, Bucktown, Logan Square, Humboldt Park, East Village and the Ukrainian Village: all charming Chicago neighborhoods filled with boutique shopping, microbreweries and award-winning restaurants.  Two Urns Promo 1.

Currently, the Cook County Tax Assessor, Joe Berrios,  is increasing property taxes on only the licensed Bed and Breakfasts in the county by an estimated $17,000 – $70,000/per B&B, that would put us all out of business.  Please assist the local B&Bs by signing this petition (and forwarding it to family/friends): Say NO to Joe Berrios – Save our B&BS.

Chicago Tribune coverage of this issue

We are hopeful that the Cook County Commissioners will amend the County Property Tax Descriptions to assure the B&Bs in Cook County will survive in 2016.
