Is The Drake Hotel good? Overview, pros and cons
Staylist AI overview · based on 8 public guest reviews
“Queen West party hotel, lively nights”
The Drake is a Queen West institution in a prime Toronto spot — nightlife, patios and Trinity Bellwoods outside, cozy rooms with comfortable beds, good shower pressure, friendly staff, and a beautiful spotless new section. It's not for quiet-seekers: rooms run noisy at night, some are viewless, pillows soft to a fault, and one guest mourns a dingier party crowd and dirty small rooms in the old part.
