We stayed at the Drake for a few days in a bitterly cold October but the hotel was cosy and comfortable in every way. The entire hotel was beautifully decorated with great pieces of art adding a playful and fun side and making it unique. The design was very clever, masking the small size of the rooms and making them... more

I just returned from my second stay at The Drake. I returned because I like the Toronto Arts District,the fun attitude of the hotel and the nice coffee shop that serves great pastries. There are lots of galleries, museums, shops and eateries up and down Queen Street. My husband and I enjoyed the Drake restaurants and bar the first time... more

I'm the kind of business woman who stays at the Fairmont, The Ritz, and The Westin. The Drake is as far from those venues as you can imagine. There is no elevator in the three story boutique hotel, the Cafe restaurant is funky and not conducive to meetings, there are only two people running the front desk, and there is... more

I booked the Drake Hotel because it sounded interesting and the neighborhood exciting. Usually, we are rather conservative in our choice of hotels, but sometimes adventure is good. However, when we arrived in front of the hotel we were worried that we had chosen wrong. NOT AT ALL! From the moment we walked into the lobby of the Drake, we... more

We stayed at the Drake Hotel on Sunday November 2nd due to an appointment we had in Toronto. I tried to find something close to the Toronto West Hospital....to our extreme surprise this hotel was fantastic in so many ways. Firstly, its not your average hotel...it had attitude and style. What a difference from the norm. The room was a... more

I'm not sure where to start... The Drake Hotel has to be one of the most unique, wonderful, special hotels in all the world...and I've travelled the globe quite a bit. From the moment you walk in you are in design heaven. The design eye and sensibility behind The Drake is evident in every single detail. The lobby, the rooms,... more

What a wonderful place - full of beautiful art, interesting people and the staff is outstanding. Being 64 probably makes me a bit older than their average guest, but I would recommend The Drake to everyone. The energy in this hotel is warm and exciting and the people who work there are extremely helpful and fun! The food is delicious... more

We booked the Drake on the basis of the reviews on TripAdvisor, but having spent a week there, I feel like we stayed in a totally different hotel to the rest of the reviewers. Firstly, the noise. We were in the previously mentioned room 203. I guess we could've ignored being woken every morning at 7.30am by the awnings on... more

I went with my film partner for this years Film Festival and he slected the Drake- I've traveled widely and stayed in many fine hotels but the Drake was a unique and deeply satsidfying experience. While a cab ride away from many of the festival events the distance was well worth it for the combination of laid-back coolness, a great... more
