Always have enjoyed the Drake

The Drake always provides a very friendly enviorment, which is always appreciated when I have been traveling all day. The last thing I want is a hassle at check in or an attitude from staff. The Drake makes a weary traveler welcomed.

Best hotel bed I ever slept in....

Not only is it a beautiful hotel with a gracious staff, the bed, pillows and bedding were fabulous! We took the information off the bed pillows so we could order them once we got home. We found out that the pillows are made exclusively for this Hilton owned Hotel. We have them now at home and they are awesome. The restuarants and coffee cafe in the hotel are great as well. We had the best experience! Will defintely stay again!

Excellent Hotel

Both my husband and I were very pleased with the service, food and accommodations especially that the hotel gave us early entry 11:00 a.m. to the room when it became available instead of 3:00 p.m. We were extremely tired and had asked for early access for early access if a room became available. We would definitely stay at the Drake again.
