Great Place for High Tea! Between the elegance of the DRAKE and the harpist, it is a true delight!
A grand old hotel in a grand location – This place is beautiful from the outside, but some of the rooms are quite dated. The location at the north end of Michigan Ave, with the lakefront path and Oak Street beach steps away, is perfect.
Old fashioned. Just the way I like it – I always stey at the Drake when visiting the windy city. You get what you pay for. One on the few classics that still stick out in a scenery with high-rises and busy streets. Comfort and luxury.

Amazing Historic Hotel! Perfect Chicago Location! – This is my favorite hotel in Chicago! I have stayed at over 20 different places and this one is amazing! Very historic and beautiful inside. Very romantic ambiance. Great access to Michigan Avenue too.
THE best hotel in town – Old world charm. this is not some ny buyout and redo, this hotel is every bit of a showplace as it was 50 years ago. Stay the night or just have tea or drinks you won't be sorry
