“The best Nachos ive ever had!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

If you're looking for a relaxing atmosphere, somewhere where you can just relax and catch up with your friends after work or class the drake hotel is the place you're looking for! I went there with my co-workers recently and we sat on the patio with heaters by their gas fire and enjoyed some nice drinks and their AMAZING food. I personally ordered the Nachos with the lobster! They were a little on the expensive side, $25.00 with tax but SO worth it :) I highly recommend the drake hotel and their yummy nachos!

“Fun and cosy”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

Stayed here for anniversary weekend away. Loved the Crash Pad (small room). Bed was springy and soft, everything was super clean. Room had lots of little treats but they cost extra. The little card will tell you the prices of trinkets and snacks that you'll find in your room, if you choose to eat them. Public use PC at the top of the stairs was great to look up some info quickly.

Note that if you book one of the smaller rooms, the (very nice and clean) bathroom is right at the foot of you bed. If you're sharing the room with someone, best to make sure you're very comfortable with each other bathing and using the washroom so close to you. Loads of great restaurants and bars in the area, and right in the hotel itself. Staff were great and really helpful. Would stay here again for a weekend away. Thanks!

Room Tip: Room further from the stairs are quieter. Stairs lead down to the bar and restaurant, which are pack...

“Great downtown Toronto boutique hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

My wife and I recently spent a night at the Drake Hotel. We had high expectations, and they were more than met. Rooms are really cool, interesting layout and good use of space. Lots of neat little additions - major attention to detail.

We had drinks in the lounge, which was cozy and relaxed. The Hedgehog was a unique cocktail - my wife wrote down the recipe to recreate at home.

We had dinner in the dining room, good atmosphere and generally a good place to hang out. Reasonably priced - scallop dish was great. Steak frites also great, and both were healthy portions.

We ended up heading to bed early and not visiting the music venue downstairs, but couldn't hear a thing in our room, even though we were on the second floor. Bed was very comfortable.

Breakfast the next morning in the cafe was awesome. You don't even need to leave the hotel to be entertained and to dine properly. We'll be back.

“The Best Hotel in the world with the Best Staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

person found this review helpful

I can not stress how wonderful this Hotel is! The decor : outstanding, The food: out of this world, The drinks: try the Mojitos amazing!, The rooms: clean, gorgeous,wonderfully designed,pure indulgence The service: the best I have ever come across, The entertainment; blows you away
a score of 200%. My whole stay over the New year was a sheer pleasure and joy it felt like being at home but in sheer luxurious style. The staff are a huge part of the experience Jonathan, Greg (pronounced with Scottish accent!) Sonia to name but a few could not have been more helpful and even when I kept them chatting they did not bat an eye lid! the personal touches makes this Hotel standout, it would take far more than the 50 characters allocated to list them all. I would actually go so far to say i would go back to Toronto just so I could stay at the Drake :)

“The Coolest Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011

You stay at some places and you can feel the history.

You stay at the Drake and you can feel the vibe.

This place is the coolest hotel I have ever stayed in.

The rooms are ultra-funky, the restraunt is top notch and the bar (balcony and main floor) is the place to be.

The location is a little distance from the center of Toronto, but well worth it.

The staff are as hip as the place it self.

Definately worth the splurge.

Definately.

Room Tip: I had a street side room - corner room. Nice look out over Queen Street. Louder but.....
