The Drake, a Hilton hotel

Great Location, staff and comfort

Pros: Whinin walking distance to downtown shopping and attractions and great restaurants, walked to Chicsgo Art Institute to take in Van Gough exhibit.

Cons: Parking too expensive

Still the good old Drake

Pros: The Drake is a Chicago classic. A bit old, but very luxuries and very, very beautiful. The excellent location and nice staff delivering outstanding service make the Drake the place to be.

Cons: A bit dated, and almost impossible to roll your own luggage. Unlike most hotels with marble floors, The Drake has the thickest carpet imaginable. Also, the rooms are small for the US (and the money) and you will pay a lot for a view. However, this is the oldest and most desirable location that The Drake sets the standards for all of the other Chicago luxury hotels.

Luxury and comfortable

Pros: Big room; clean; comfortable bed; good service; staffs were friendly

Cons: There was no room in the fridge that the customers can store god; no microwave;

Quaint

Pros: An architectural gem in downtown Chicago with old look but kept updated with modern amenities. It shows it's age sometimes but that is the charm of it.

Cons: Just know that there is no lounge access for Hilton Gold members which is strange for a property with a lounge.

Pros: Great location and afternoon tea was amazing.

Beautiful with a classic old Chicago look

Pros: Wedding in the coast ball room was phenomenal. The staff throughout the Drake were very kind, courteous and very helpful always. Food was excellent.

Cons: A/c in our room didn't work very well. Only disappointment.
