The Drake Hotel - A Historic 1920s Landmark on Magnificent Mile with Lake Views and Classic Dining
Standing at the northern edge of Magnificent Mile since 1920, this 4-star Chicago hotel features 535 rooms with premium bedding, marble bathrooms, and modern amenities including HD TVs and laptop-compatible safes. The Drake's historic building houses multiple dining venues, including the 1930s Coq d'Or lounge with red leather booths and live jazz, Palm Court for afternoon tea, and Café on Oak for daily breakfast. Located in the Gold Coast area, The Drake occupies a commanding position at the intersection of upscale shopping, dining, and nightlife destinations. The Museum of Contemporary Art, Oak Street Beach, and the Lakefront Trail are within a five-minute walk. A 24-hour fitness facility provides cardio equipment, weights, and yoga mats, while the arcade level contains various shops. The property offers valet parking, 24-hour room service, and concierge assistance for restaurant reservations and event tickets.
Pros
Historic 1920s property frequented by celebrities and heads of state
Children's high tea service with toy shop partnerships
Concierge secures reservations for sold-out events
Direct access to Oak Street Beach and Lakefront Trail
Cons
2.5-mile distance to Lincoln Park Zoo
Surrounding area becomes crowded at night due to popular clubs and bars
“The hotel's rich history and Gold Coast location are major draws, placing guests steps from both luxury shopping and the lakefront; the architecture evokes a bygone era. However, some aspects require careful consideration, as its grandeur may be fading in certain areas. For those prioritizing location and historic charm, it remains a worthwhile consideration.”
