Property Description

Overlooking Lake Michigan with direct access to Oak Street Beach, The Drake Hotel anchors the north end of The Magnificent Mile. It continues to illuminate Lake Shore Drive with historic authenticity, marked by illustrious service and "Real Chicago" experiences for over 100 years. Since our first guests arrived on New Years Eve in 1920, our culinary philosophy has remained consistent: using fresh, high-quality ingredients to produce beautifully executed dishes. Whether enjoying quintessential afternoon tea steeped in tradition at Palm Court, sipping an iconic "executive pour" martini, or savoring the Red Snapper Bookbinder Soup with house rolls prepared in the same opening-day bread oven operated 363 days a year at Coq d'Or, you will experience true Chicago authenticity. You can even see the stars by visiting the original carvings of Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio at Cafe on Oak. In the evening, retire to one of 535 guestrooms and suites, featuring plush comforts and thoughtful niceties to make settling into the Windy City a breeze. The majority of guestrooms offer views of Lake Michigan or the city skyline along The Magnificent Mile. Standout accommodations include namesake suites that enchant guests with storied touches of aristocracy and celebrity, as well as the Residence Suite, which sits atop the hotel adjacent to The Drake marquee. The Drake has been the place to "see and be seen" for over a century in recognized spaces such as the Gold Coast Room, Grand Ballroom, and the Camellia or French Rooms. Our service-oriented team is known for its down-to-earth demeanor and meticulous expertise in tailoring unique preferences, resulting in elegant events that portray an air of sophistication. Locals and travelers alike have deemed the hotel an idyllic destination for weddings, galas, and social gatherings--a shared legacy passed down through generations. Nostalgic and extravagant holiday events mark each season, with an overabundance of charm as the hotel transforms into a seasonal delight. A turn of the revolving door places you on Oak Street, the city's destination for the world's most sought-after designers, and into the shopping epicenter of The Magnificent Mile, featuring over 450 retailers, boutiques, and Michelin-rated dining destinations. Notable nearby attractions include Oak Street Beach, Navy Pier, the Museum of Contemporary Art, 360 Chicago (John Hancock Observatory), Water Tower Place, and the 900 North Michigan Shops.

Great place which really knows how to pamper you.

The Drake is a wonderful hotel with tons of charm. The staff was always very friendly and helpful providing tips for getting a bus card or an umbrella when it was raining. It was a wonderful location, not far from the metro and very close to the bus stop I needed to get to my conference. It’s also right next to the water.

This hotel is relatively classic. Some people may think it is old, but in fact I like it very much because the scenery and location are very good, and the hotel has a very historical background and the overall atmosphere is very good.

This is an old-money style hotel. I like the style of the lobby. It is located near the Magnificent Mile, so it has a great location.

百年老酒店，房間設施就不要要求太苛刻了，畢竟歷史在那邊。總體上還可以。風機聲音很大，靠湖很近，能看到湖，酒店沒有早餐，這點非常不好，衹有樓下一個咖啡店，衹有麪包咖啡賣。
