I had a wonderful stay at The Drake hotel. The rooms were spotless and exactly what we needed, which was lovely. The hotel was very clean, cozy, and quiet. The staff were so friendly, helpful, and genuinely caring, especially Savanna at the front desk who went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The location was awesome, with great food, drink, shopping, and coffee all within walking distance. I really loved the dining experience and the facilities provided were top-notch. Looking forward to staying at The Drake again!

The hotel is located in a trendy quarter of the city, perfect for shopping, eating, and drinking, with lots of restaurants nearby. The rooms are small but equipped with everything you need, including USB cords, although they lack proper storage for clothes. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to provide top-notch service. The location is ideal for those looking to explore the vibrant neighborhood but lacks proper lighting on the steps. The dining experience offers fresh organic products but is somewhat limited. Overall, a comfortable stay with great service in a lively area.

I stayed at this hotel, which was a gift from a family member, and while I found the interior design lovely, the lack of basic storage like coat hooks for my clothes was disappointing. However, the location was great for shopping and enjoying the trendy neighborhood. The service was exceptional, with the front desk staff going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and even upgrading our room. The dining experience was lovely in the Lounge, but could be more inclusive as breakfast was not included. Overall, a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfort and inconvenience. The rooms were comfortable and immaculate, with nice modern amenities, but the small size made it challenging for a couple. The service was exceptional, with incredibly helpful and kind front desk staff, though some areas were hired out to external parties, impacting the overall experience. The location was prime for exploring the trendy city quarter and enjoying the vibrant surroundings, but there were struggles with space for guests in common areas. Dining was a highlight, especially in the heart of Toronto, providing a delightful culinary experience. Overall, a stay with pleasant surprises and a few setbacks.

The hotel had small but cleverly laid out rooms that were clean and thoughtfully decorated. I also enjoyed dinner in the beautiful lounge and drinks on the roof patio. While the layout gave a unique vibe, there was a slight feeling that the toilet was oddly placed. The overall room decor had a youthful touch.

The hotel rooms were so nice that my companion and I decided to order room service instead of going down to the restaurant, and it turned out to be a brilliant choice. Our room had all the comforts of a fancy hotel but with a memorable personality, including a healthy Snake Plant, which I always appreciate. The ambiance is best suited for singles or couples rather than friends.
