I have an affinity for chic boutique hotels and The Drake met and exceeded my expectations. Located in the very trendy Queens West section of Toronto, Drake sets a high standard for the others to follow. The staff is professional, courteous, beautiful, engaging and committed to ensuring a pleasurable stay. The Drake is as advertised, "Hot Bed for Culture". Toronto's... more

I have been staying at the Drake for three years every time I go to Toronto for business. The rooms are very well designed, the vibe is fun, the restaurants are great and the staff is friendly. It's the best value in Toronto. more

I had the pleasure of spending at night at the Drake earlier this month and had a very cool experience...from the kind reception I received upon arriving to the awesome crash pad...only good things to say. Special mention must be made about their beds...honestly the best sleep I have had in a while...only challenge is leaving it in the morning. more

I was very pleased with my stay at the Drake recently. They provided an accomodation that was clean and welcoming, and I was especially appreciate of the fact that the staff went out of their way to set me up with another accomodation as they were fully booked for the second night. Recommend it without hesitation, and plan to stay... more

I can't say enough great things about the Drake. Brilliant use of space, the room is tiny but you almost don't notice because the execution is so perfect. The common spaces are hip, inviting and the staff is helpful and friendly. We were snowed in all day and didn't mind one bit. We spent the day entertained by great staff,... more

My husband is originally from TO and we have stayed at all the typical hotels (King Edward, Hilton, Sheraton Centre) but this was our first time at The Drake. It was fun, hip, edgy and cool. The location is too far from the main stream to walk so a car is necessary. The rooms are uber hip but efficiently small.... more

This was a last minute stay, only one night on Carrabana weekend. We heard about this hotel from friends of a friend while sitting over cocktails at Mother's in Buffalo, NY. These folks were so excited about this hotel that they actually had it on "speed dial". After twenty minutes they had my girlfriend and I so excited that I... more
