The drake hotel is in an awesome location, surrounded by great bars, restaurants shops, and it's so easy to walk the whole neighborhood. The bar upstairs was nice and the staff were fantastic!

Loved the location, loved the staff, loved the bed and loved the delicious soaps and creams!!! Yes, the rooms are smaller but you know that when booking. Lively and boisterous lobby but didn't hear a peep when in the room. Looking forward to returning.

Even though the hotel was hosting a big event while we were there - a big bash for its 15th birthday - we didn't hear the music or anything else from the party in our room. We ate in the restaurant several times and really liked the food and the staff who waited on us. Loved staying in the Drake Hotel!

An Inside Look at The Drake Hotel

The Drake opened in 1890 as D. A. Small’s Hotel. At the time, the area was a major Canadian Pacific Railway hub that linked downtown with the lakeside summer homes of Toronto’s western beaches. For the next half century, the Hotel transitioned through several owners and names including Hotel Cecil and the Stardust. In 1949, Michael Lundy purchased the property, renamed it the Drake, expanded the building and created many of the improvements visible today, including the grand staircase in the lobby and the addition of a lounge and restaurant. Drake Hotel Properties purchased the building in late 2001 and undertook the extensive renovations that gave the hotel its current form. The Drake re-opened its doors in February of 2004 and has since gone on to proudly redefine the Toronto boutique hotel experience.
