Best location in Wichita

Walk less than a half-mile to the riverfront, or a few blocks to trendy Delano. Comfy bed in cute, updated historic home with backyard and grill. Loved staying here, same price as a hotel room - so much better. Will be back!

Great Wichita Visit

I didn’t actually stay at this property. This property was reserved but due to an emergency with the previous occupant they had to extend their stay and I ended up at a different property across the street. Winnie was great at communicating the change of plans and everything worked out perfectly.

Central location, new interior

I liked the central location. Easy to get downtown or anywhere east/west on Kellogg. I liked the fully appointed kitchen, all the way from dishes and pots/pans to spices and aluminum foil. The interior of this 100+ year old home wasn't just remodeled. It appeared to me to have recently been completely gutted and nicely rebuilt. Good job.

Lovely home in great location

Having never been to Wichita, we were unsure of where to stay for our event. After looking at many homes, the Modern Delano was our choice. The home is very quaint and appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Communication was easy and they were flexible with us as we needed an extended checkout. I highly recommend staying at this well kept, very clean home. You won’t regret it!

Nice last-minute long weekend stay

We had 2 couples staying at this property for a last-minute getaway for a long weekend and this property ended up working perfectly. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed the table with an umbrella in the backyard in the beautiful weather. There are a few more side tables than pictured, which ended up being nice and made it feel more home like. Winnie was very responsive to communications. We are looking forward to returning when we can explore Wichita a little more outside the pandemic.

About the host

Hosted by Winnie Chien

I am a chemist for a pharmaceutical company during the week, on weekend a styling consultant for a beautiful prom/wedding boutique in Wichita, Kansas. Jerry and I are proud owners of Historically Modern Delano close to downtown Wichita.

I graduated from Wichita State University with master in analytical chemistry, I am fluent in both mandarin Chinese and English. I consider myself outgoing and love carry out conversations.

Jerry and I try to stay fit by going to gym, yoga studio, biking, and running. Our favorite thing to do is vacationing oversea, and plan to visit more countries whenever time allows. We both have fairly busy schedules but we love to make time available for our guests. I reply promptly and love to assist, please don't hesitate to ask!
