On my day off, I want to go to a building with a glass enclosed room that lets in sunlight and is warm.
Is that called a solarium?
I can’t find anywhere on Google maps. How can I find such a place?
A lot of conservatories/arboretums have these types of spaces in addition to the hotter more humid greenhouse areas.
The one at biltmore or some other old timey robber baron house was called a ‘winter garden’
Seconding “winter garden”. There’s three I know of in Chicago that are open to the public:
Harold Washington Library eighth floor
the lobby bar of the Hoxton hotel
the lobby of the U of C business school Hyde Park campus main building

I think you’re looking for a conservatory or sunroom, not a Solarium. Maybe check for a nearby botanical garden?
