The Drake is always gonna be class and iconic to us. We stayed for my wifes bday, hoping to order in and just enjoy our beautiful view of Lake Shore Drive & Lake. Unfortunately everything was closed on a Friday night. No bar, no Hotel restaurant and no room service. Didnt even have a small fridge to choose drinks from or store some drinks. Its mustve been a cost decision since the hotel seemed so empty. Really hope it never changes but they need to reach out w marketing or something to get people to stay again. View- 10 ⭐️ Hospitality- 5 (just asking a guy cleaning the bar where we could eat, we got an angry snap) Cost- 5 cant justify the cost for what we got. We'll probably go back to staying at the InterCon

We particularly enjoyed the period features of the hotel. Our room itself needed minor decoration works as wallpaper was peeling off in places and paint did not match. Also found a hair slide in room from previous occupant. But nothing major! All in all a great location to stay.

We will definitely come back to The Drake. We had an amazing view of the lake, and the staff are extremely polite and friendly. The food was excellent, however, we didn't like the room service menu. We would have liked to experience afternoon tea, but the price is ridiculous for what it is. Still, I feel it is the best location in Chicago
