About The Publishing House Bed & Breakfast
- Built in 1909 as the Free Methodist Publishing House, it later housed the Walter Rudolph Casket Factory (1930s-1950s) and the Museum of Holography from 1976 to 2009.
- Each of the 11 rooms is named for a Chicago author or a setting from a Chicago novel, with copies of those books left in the room.
- Nushu architects Kara Boyd and Krista Petkovsek and Siren Betty Design led the 2016-17 conversion, which won an AIA Small Project Award in 2021.
- The building also holds Solo Salon and The Press Room, a basement wine bar.
