Description

The Altgeld House Apartments is ideally located in the heart of Lincoln Park, Chicago's wealthiest neighborhood. It's a pleasure to stroll around at any hour admiring the magnificent homes, visiting the interesting and upscale shops, lazing in the nearby parks or enjoying the myriad restaurants and music venues. Be sure to ask your host for suggestions on the many nearby attractions.
Built in 1891, The Altgeld House Apartments contains two complete self-contained vintage apartments, each recently updated to include all modern amenities, and then furnished with many 19th century European antiques and fine reproductions. “Elizabeth’s Place” can sleep up to five guests, and “Alice’s Annex” can house up to seven. Either apartment invites the business or leisure traveler to feel right at home, and both units can be combined for large groups. Please note that the building is strictly nonsmoking, although ashtrays may be provided on the verandah or deck.
Breakfast
The Altgeld House Apartments always has great coffees and decaf, herbal, green and black teas, and hot chocolate in your pantry. Ask about having one of our chefs prepare a custom three-course breakfast for you -- one of Chicago's great bargains! And for bringing home your own fare, there is a 24-hour Dominick’s grocery just one block away, Whole Foods one mile away, and many terrific breakfast spots within a few blocks.
So whether you choose to sleep late or rise early for a jog by the lake, you may dine at your convenience in either the formal dining room or the eat-in kitchen of “Elizabeth’s,” or the charming dining nook of “Alice’s,” but always on fine china with crystal glassware and fresh flowers.

Telephone
Both units have their own private lines and are each equipped with two telephones and an answering machine.
Parking
A car is not necessary at The Altgeld House Apartments —so many attractions are just a few blocks away, and the subway to everywhere else is only one block from here.
