Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was in a great location, right on the seafront and within a 10 minute straightforward walk to the Lanes. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and had a higher professionalism than I've encountered recently in London hotels! The room itself was spacious, clean and with a gorgeous view of the seafront and pier. I would definitely stay there again.

Best hotel in Brighton

This is my third time at the Drakes hotel and it keeps getting better and better. The rooms are gorgeous and the staff is amazing. But the main reason i love this place so much is the attention to detail: comfortable beds, home made shortbread in the rooms, the toiletries are exceptional quality and each room has its own personality.

Everything at the Drake was above any of my expectations! The hotel, built in the 1800’s, the ceilings alone are amazing. The staff were also above and beyond. It felt to me that they genuinely cared about my stay. The poached eggs on avocado toast was the best! I’m not even exaggerating. I will be returning!
