The Robie House is one Fascinating House! - This is an architectural marvel! The tour guide was excellent at pointing out and teaching guests about the thought and vision that Frank Lloyd Wright had for this house. She was also knowledgeable about the entire history of the house. I could visit this house again and again and never get tire of it!

American Historical Gem - Run don’t walk to this gem. Spectacular piece of American history. The tour guides are phenomenal. Plenty of chairs for sitting in each room if you need a break. FLW does not disappoint!

FLW in middle of Chicago University - Beautiful house and well maintained compared to FLW house in Springfield IL. I was disappointed to hear furniture from the house is in storage with one of the departments on campus. I believe the house would be complete with the furniture. We parked in a back area about one building behind the house with pay to park. Walked a short distance in a alley to the house

Great Experience Seeing Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie Style House In Chicago - The house is absolutely amazing. It's been fully restored so you can really appreciate the amount of detail Frank Lloyd Wright put into this house. The tour guide, who has been there for over 15 years was amazing. He was knowledgeable, funny, and really in tuned to guests' questions. There were a few guest on our tour who wouldn't stay with the group and the tour guide was amazing patient but professional in keeping the group together.

wonderful Robie house but great difficulties with Viator - Seeing the Frank Lloyd Wright house was marvelous! Getting the tickets through Viator, however, was bewildering, and when we finally came to the house we discovered that, though I had paid on line, we had only gone through half of the booking process and therefore no longer had reserved places. The people were very kind and accommodating, however, and managed to get us in.
