Reviews about The Drake, a Hilton hotel

  The Drake is a great hotel for a weekend getaway or conference venue. The history makes this a memorable takeaway with elegant elevators and sitting areas. The staff does their best to accommodate your requests. However, the hotel shows her years in some rooms. The junior suite I upgraded to on-site gave me and my companions a great conversation area, but the room itself was barely stocked. No paper and pen for desk. Extra roll of toilet paper was in closet outside the bathroom. There was no hotel book in the room to help with the layout and information. I definitely would make sure you know what is being upgraded and compare to your expectations before you actually upgrade. The executive lounge was not on par with other hotels but it offered a nice view of the lake shore and a small area to enjoy chatting with your friends. There's no pool. The location is great for enjoying all that the downtown area has to offer.

  I was there for the third time for Afternoon Tea in Palm Court at the Drake Hotel. It was very delicious - their scones and sandwiches have gotten even better than the last time I went a few years ago! The scones were warm, the sandwiches (of about 4 varieties) were perfectly sized and yummy, and the tea was very good. The staff members were helpful and friendly. They were accommodating and helped us take lots of pictures of our group of ~20 ladies. Palm Court is set up mainly for smaller groups of about 5, but they were able to rearrange tables around fairly well for larger groups (10+). It was a little harder to maneuver around the tables with 20 of us, but it wasn't too much of an issue. The decor was lovely, as was the harpist.
