We held our event there at the Hansen Mansion and were quite impressed by the staff’s attention to detail. Everything I wanted was at my fingertips! They made sure to make us feel welcome! The rooms were plush and elegant – I felt proud to have my event there! The period décor was appropriate to the mansion setting. The establishment... more

We were very fortunate to have stayed at the Hansen House on our first trip to Chicago. We had transportation difficulties on the way into Chicago, which put us an hour behind our scheduled time of arrival; however, when we contacted Fran and Quincy, the proprietors, to let them know we were running late, they very graciously rearranged their plans... more

Hansen Mansion is both comfortable and convenient. In a great neighborhood, it walking distance to shopping, restaurants and entertainment in Old Town, and the CTA to the Loop is nearby. The hosts, Fran and Quincy are friendly, accomodating, proud of Chicago, and eager to have their guests share their enthusiasm. Highly recommended. more

My husband and I never stayed at a B&B in Chicago before. We loved our visit to Hanson Mansion. The old mansion charm was wonderful. Such a beautiful historic building. The furnishing fit the old world charm. The mansion is so close to everything in the city, and the hostess, Fran was wonderful. She explained all about the area, the... more

As a long time patron of the Hansen House, I had to write in to disagree with some of the frankly baffling posts listed about the B&B. I visit Chicago maybe three of four times a year on business and I ALWAYS stay at the Hansen House. I've visited many different parts of the world and quickly developed a distaste... more

We were concerned about our visit due to past reviews on the Hansen House Mansion, and I can tell you, as a picky and very detailed traveler the Hansen House Mansion FAR exceeded our expectations. We were celebrating a major milestone with family members, friends and employees and 3 couples and my Grandmother spent the night, we spent an additional... more

We stayed at the Hansen Mansion during the busiest time of year (around Taste of Chicago/July 4th) and were lucky to get in for the time we wanted. My wife and I were accompanied by her Parents from Quebec, and her Mother had never been to Chicago before, so I wanted to show them the best time that I could... more

I stayed with friends for 3 nights at the Hansen House. We had a wonderful weekend, thanks to the quality of the friends and the house's great location. The house is old and worn (shabby-chic would be a bit generous), but nice enough. However, there are several mis-representations on the website. The bathrooms are far from "luxurious". The third floor... more

13 of us stayed in this quaint old house. We came from all over the U.S., New Zealand, Italy and Amsterdam. The house was wonderful, the location perfect. The problem I personally had was not being able to use the kitchen refrigerator. We were told numerous times that there was no room in the downstairs refrigerator and to take our... more
