Upon entering the Great Room, you'll be transported to a stunning homage to Chicago’s beloved Field Museum. High ceilings, intricate millwork, and museum-inspired displays—ranging from dinosaurs to ancient Egypt—set the tone for a truly immersive experience. With seating for 15+ people in this room alone, it's the perfect gathering spot for large groups or corporate retreats.
The building boasts two full kitchens; one on each level. The first floor kitchen pays tribute to the neighborhood’s early German settlers, offering a cozy, well-appointed space for culinary adventures. The upstairs kitchen continues the story of North Center’s cultural melting pot, paying homage to the Romanian, Greek, and French immigrants who once settled the area.
Adjoining the back stairwell is a private theater with authentic, refurbished seats and rich red velvet drapery—an ode to the grandeur of Chicago’s many historic theaters. Upstairs, relax in the Chicago Bar Lounge, a true throwback to the city’s iconic taverns, complete with a full bar, lounge seating, and timeless décor that brings the essence of Chicago nightlife to your doorstep. Off the lounge, the Formal Dining Room is a visual feast, drawing inspiration from the Garfield Park Conservatory and the Art Institute, adorned with botanical beauty and replicas of masterpieces by Van Gogh and Monet.
Each of the five bedrooms offers a uniquely themed, immersive experience. Fall asleep next to the recreation of a vintage Union Station train ticket booth or beneath the watchful eye of a friendly giraffe, inspired by the nearby Lincoln Park Zoo. Each room offers a distinct experience, blending cozy comfort with the rich history of Chicago’s iconic landmarks. The building, constructed in 1909, houses reclaimed furniture that survived the Great Chicago Fire, adding a layer of historical significance to this already remarkable space.
With space to sleep 12 and an abundance of seating in the communal areas, the Grand Vic is ideal for corporate retreats, large family gatherings, or groups of friends looking to experience the city in a way that no other vacation homes can offer. From the movie theater to the foosball and chess tables, every corner of this property is designed for entertainment and relaxation.
Step inside, and you’ll experience microcosms of Chicago's best—from the museums and zoos to its neighborhoods and cultural heritage—all within the walls of this exceptional property. Book your stay at the Grand Vic and uncover the hidden gems of the city in the most unforgettable way.
