Welcome to The Drake Hotel. We are a Toronto hotel destination rooted in contemporary art, culture, genuine hospitality and proudly celebrate our local surroundings along with the communities we serve. Since opening our doors in 2004, we have sought to create a neighbourhood hub that provides a unique sense of place; to bridge the art of the moment with intentional hospitality, to ignite curiosity within travellers, revellers, neighbours, and our local friends. From live music in the Underground to award-winning cocktails on our climate-defiant, year-round Sky Yard roof-top patio; from ongoing art exhibits and eats, there's always something happening at our West Queen West outpost. We invite you to experience our special blend of bespoke hotel and inclusive hub for unique and diverse experiences with great seasonal menus, a robust cocktail list, a vibrant local culture, carefully curated curiosities, and genuine hospitality.iHotelier/iStay

Dan, Sep 2024
Pros (+) The hotel has a great vibe. When we arrived, there was a drag lunch taking place in the cafe between the two main buildings of the hotel. The staff were super helpful, moved us to make sure we wouldn't be disturbed by noise (without us needing to ask). The room was quaint, with lots of amenities. Would absolutely visit again.

Kimberly, Aug 2024
Pros (+) I loved the artsy-ness of it all, the bedbug in the room was absolutely adorable; and the bed (from the sheets to pillows) was wonderful. The gardens were beautiful, and the hospitality was above expectations, so kind and friendly!
Cons (-) The fridge was a little poor (not very cold) and there wasn’t coffee within the room.
