Place is amazing. All restored parts look great. In the afternoon tours you can appreciate a little bit more of alloy Wright”s genius details.

Tom Fosgard

The tour is a bit pricey but worth it to see the inside architectural features. I thought our tour guide was great.

So cool to be able to go inside this architectural masterpiece. Really well run tours that is a must do when in Chicago.

The Robie House (1908-10),is the supreme expression of Wright’s Prairie style, unrelentingly horizontal in form and incorporating an interior open plan that would influence modern architectural design

Good tours . If you come with kids, check out the Wright Three tour on Saturdays , based on kids book about the house.

Perfect piece of FLW history!

Nice visit, a little hard to find but it is a very nice architecture site to visit. One of Frank Lloyd Wrights milestones, wish it had more original furniture .

A must see for architecture & Frank Lloyd Wright enthusiasts.

Hourlong tour is pricey but pretty interesting. Interior is better than the exterior of the house.

Spend a while in here, it is a real impressive piece of architecture . I sat for half an hour at the living room sofa . It was great...
