The place is nice. Very quiet. The roof top bar could have been worded properly, and mentioned that it’s only on the second floor as roof top gives you that impression that it is high up in floors. The Drake underground was closed on a Friday night, which I had asked about the day before and the gentleman answering the phone never told me it was. The hotel doesn’t have a parking and you will need to use public parking, but that’s pretty normal for downtown Toronto. Overall it’s a cool little hotel with small rooms.

When I booked hotel, for nearby concert, I also booked a snack break before. The charcuterie board was a joke. The drinks were 3/10 at best. The only positive was the friendliness of the staff.

The room was just as advertised, clean, quirky, and comfortable. We were in the older section so no elevator, but for us it wasn’t an issue. The restaurant had delicious choices and great coffee. The Sky Yard was fun for a late night drink after dinner down the street. I loved the art collection! I would definitely return.

I love staying at The Drake! I was kindly offered to be switched to the main building upon arrival, but the older side of the hotel and the “crash pad” were both so nice! Perfect for a quick overnight in the city. I will definitely be back!

Great amenities, outstanding location and comfy room. The bathroom arrangement (crash pad room) was a bit odd for normal standards but worked fine. We had a bit of a water leak on the shower, the glass door wasn't fully sealed when closed but nothing major we couldn't manage with some extra towels. Overall great experience.

This property had a large unexpected deposit fee that I was not aware of and absolutely NO amenities included for the price. The room was very small but manageable if you are traveling alone or with 1 other person. I was not a fan of the location as everything around felt very wary. Overall would not recommend staying here as you can absolutely find better options for the nightly price.
