The Episcopal Campus Ministry at the University of Chicago

House Guests

Brent House has limited guest accommodations but is always happy to welcome you. Guest space is available on a first-come basis and reservations should be made by contacting the house managers.

All residents and guests are asked to always bear in mind that Brent House is a center for ministry and, as such, hosts many public meetings and worship services each week. Residents and guests are expected to assist staff in maintaining a warm and welcoming hospitality.

Our one guest room is furnished with a standard double bed and, while small, is adequate for a short stay. All linens are provided. The bath is fitted with a shower and is shared with the four resident students on the same floor. A washer and dryer are available and kitchen privileges allow guests to prepare simple meals during their stay. Additionally, we are within walking distance of several good restaurants and convenient to the university campus. Our location is especially convenient for prospective students and for parents visiting campus; we especially enjoy hosting parents of students actively involved in our programs and activities.

While there is no fixed charge for the use of our guest facilities, donations assist us with the expenses of such hospitality. We recommend a minimum of $45 per night; for stays longer than five days, rates are pro-rated to existing room rentals in the house

From time to time, resident space is available for short terms of 2 to 12 weeks between student tenancies. Please contact the House Manager if or when such facilities might serve your needs. You can read more about the Brent House residential community here.
