This is the famous and Iconic Drake Hotel, the hotel looked great, great location, one of the worst rooms Ive ever been in. Cheap furniture, cheap lamps, nothing on the walls, TV tucked in a corner, felt like a motel room not the world famous Drake Hotel in Chicago. Getting off the elevator the entire 6th floor smells awful, I can't believe this was my first time staying at the Drake and this was my experience. Sorry Drake can't recommend your hotel, will stay at another property next time.

The towels were rough and small the bathtub did not drain it was rather dated . I would not stay there again The next night we stayed at a Hampton Inn in Indiana. They are both owned by same company. The Hampton was spotless, newer, plush towels, and the shower drained properly, the Dtake is a fine old hotel but it just wasn’t what I remember.

Beautiful historic hotel in the best part of Chicago. Friendly staff and great service. Nice, clean, spacious, comfortable room. Would definitely stay again.

Service was phenomenal. Excellent, attentive staff. That said, older hotel with noise issues. Michigan Ave is loud until the wee hours of the morning and the rooms are not close to sound proof.

Property just badly needs updating. Horrible water pressure. Bed and pillows very average.

Great

Awesome will definitely return

Love the Drake! Classic Chicago, excellent location. Very clean, very comfortable, huge room. Staff is fantastic; personable and always ready to help. And valet parking staff is top-notch!

The Drake has seen better days. We booked a single queen bed room. They put us on the 2nd floor in a room that rivaled a Motel 6. The mattress was pathetic, worn, and definitely NOT a queen sized bed. Our request for an extra pillow was left unheeded. To their credit, when I politely complained the next day, they gave us an upgraded room -- a suite on the 10th floor. This room was nice, but the furnishings still cry out for updating. This is supposed to be a Class A, luxury hotel -- and they certainly charge those kind of rates. In addition, they took a $150 hold on my credit card for expenses (we prepaid for the room), which was fine. But when our dining bill that we charged to the room went beyond the hold, they locked us out of our room until we went downstairs to put on another $150 hold, whereupon they issued us new room keys. This did not make me feel either trusted or appreciated, and I've never experienced that at any other hotel property. We ate at the Oak Street Cafe (you cannot enter from Oak Street!), which seemed very tired, although the service was great. The grand shops that used to operate from the ground level of the hotel are no longer there. There is a convenience store, though. Bottom line: the Drake is no longer special. There are much better options for the price nearby. Sad. But true.

Nice and clean pet friendly propert

It's a lovely old classic hotel - beautifully decorated . Staff at front desk and in the lobby are friendly and efficient. I was disappointed that there was no mini-fridge in the room to keep my medications. I did expect one as even the very basic Motel 6s etc have a fridge.

Legendary Chicago hotel. Room overlooking lakeshore noisy because of traffic… would be great if windows were soundproof. I will return but request room on the other side.

Staff not very friendly. Not worth the price.. away from city walk

This is a very nice, very old hotel.

The staff at the lobby desk was very friendly and helpful.

Awesome!

Excellent 👌

Additional signage needed to know where to enter the hotel, and where to locate the front desk. Thank you

My really only complaint is that I couldn’t have a bottle of champagne in my room before I arrived.

Easy check in and check out! Room was spacious and comfy. Near by many restaurants and retail stores and the beautiful beach! Our dog enjoyed his stay too👍
