The Drake Hotel

The attention to detail oin the room was very much appreciated. We loved the robes and the bathroom, the bed was fantastic, I loved the color scheme, the room was a great size and I love the neighbourhood Staff were accessible and friendly We miss the Drake!

The Drake is fun and funky - a younger staff and clientele but we certainly don't feel out of place as mid-40 somerhings. The rooms are very comfortable, immaculate, have nice modern amenities, very comfortable beds, high quality linens, modern bathrooms, and very accessible. Lots of thoughtful details like many hooks, full-length mirrors, small bar fridge, Google chromecast on the TV, etc. The rooms aren't huge but they make excellent use of the space. The staff are overwhelmingly pleasant and helpful, and there is fantastic food, coffee and cocktails available at the restaurant and cafe in the hotel. We like the Parkdale neighborhood, close to great restaurants and bars on Ossington and walking distance to the ever changing shops and restaurants on Queen west. This was a weekday stay and the hotel was quieter than it usually is on weekends. It wouldn't be my first pick for a business trip if I had work to do at the hotel, but it's ideal for a leisurely escape to the city. I wouldn't pay rack rate, but it's good value at Booking.com prices.

I loved the artsy-ness of it all, the bedbug in the room was absolutely adorable; and the bed (from the sheets to pillows) was wonderful. The gardens were beautiful, and the hospitality was above expectations, so kind and friendly!

The room was clean and thoughtfully decorated. Nice bathroom, I liked the products provided (hand soap, body wash, body lotion - because of my curly hair I used my own hair care products so can’t attest to those).

Room was decorated really well and bed was comfortable. Loved all the toiletries.
