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.

It is located next to the lake at the north end of Michigan Avenue in Chicago, and it is the best location with the luxury street right next to it. I also plan to stay at Daumeng.
