Frequently asked questions

Room, Lake View FAQs

See all FAQs →
What does the Lake View room at The Drake look out on?

This room faces Lake Michigan. The hotel sits at the north end of the Magnificent Mile, directly across the street from Oak Street Beach, so the outlook is the lakefront rather than the city streets.

How are the beds arranged, and who does the room sleep comfortably?

The room has one king bed with a pillowtop mattress and premium bedding, and it sleeps two guests. That suits a couple or two travelers who want a single large bed. Hypo-allergenic bedding, a down comforter and a pillow menu are available.

How big is the Lake View room and how is it laid out?

It measures 260 sq. ft. as a one-bedroom room with a desk and chair. It is a compact, comfortable space for a short city stay. Guests who need more room can ask about connecting rooms.

What is the bathroom like?

The private bathroom has a bathtub or shower, towels, bathrobes, free toiletries and a hair dryer. The hotel's most spa-like feature, a jacuzzi bath, belongs to its Gold Coast suite category rather than this room.

Is the Lake View room suitable for families?

The room sleeps two, so it works best for a couple or a parent with a small child. The Drake offers a free crib, and a rollaway or extra bed can be added for a surcharge. Connecting rooms are available for larger parties. The hotel has no kids' club or kids' menu, but the Palm Court's Prince & Princess Afternoon Tea is designed for children aged 3–12.

How far is the room from the beach and the Magnificent Mile?

Oak Street Beach is about 700 feet away, a 3–5 minute walk, and the Lakefront Trail is within a five-minute walk. The Magnificent Mile's shops begin at the hotel's ground level. Water Tower Place and the 360 CHICAGO observation deck are both roughly 0.10 mile away.

Where can I eat and drink at The Drake?

Coq d'Or is the historic cocktail bar and restaurant on the Arcade Level, open since 1933. It is known for the Bookbinder's Red Snapper Soup, and walk-ins are welcome. Palm Court serves afternoon tea Friday to Sunday from 12:00pm to 4:30pm, and reservations are highly encouraged. Cafe on Oak serves an à la carte breakfast overlooking the lake. The in-room coffee and tea maker covers quick mornings.

What are the costs and facilities guests should know about before booking?

The Drake charges no resort fee. WiFi is $12.95 per day, and is complimentary for members of the hotel's loyalty program. Self-parking is $58 per day and valet is $82. There is no pool or on-site spa, but the 24-hour fitness center is offered at no extra charge. The hotel is entirely non-smoking.

What are check-in times and requirements, and how do I get there from the airport?

Check-in starts at 3:00 PM and check-out is at noon, with the front desk open 24 hours. The reservation holder must be 21 or older and show a photo ID and credit card. The hotel has no airport shuttle to O'Hare or Midway. The Chicago Red Line station is about an 8-minute walk away, and a bus stop at Michigan & Oak is about 2 minutes away.

How we compare rates

We compared that rate with publicly available rates on other online travel agencies (OTAs), such as Expedia, Hotels.com and similar sites, and show the price difference we found. We don't name the specific site each comparison came from.

3. Who we are

BookResorts is an independent online travel agency that acts as an intermediary between you and Suppliers.

5. Bookings & confirmation

All reservations are subject to availability and to the rate rules, restrictions, and policies shown at the time of booking. A reservation is confirmed only when you receive a confirmation from us. You are responsible for reviewing the rate rules (including cancellation terms) before you book.

6. Prices, fees, taxes & currency

Prices are shown in the currency indicated and include applicable taxes and fees unless stated otherwise; the total is displayed before you confirm. Our price may include a service fee and may differ from the rate offered directly by the Supplier. Currency conversions, where shown, are estimates. Certain taxes or resort fees may be collected by the Supplier at the property.

7. Cancellations, changes & refunds

Each rate carries its own cancellation policy, shown before you book (for example, non-refundable, or refundable up to a stated deadline). Refund eligibility and timing follow the policy attached to the rate you select. Service fees may be non-refundable. Failure to check in (“no-show”) may result in forfeiture of the amount paid, per the rate rules.

8. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for having valid identification and any required travel documents (such as a passport or visa), and for complying with the Supplier’s policies, including minimum check-in age, occupancy limits, deposits, and identification requirements. You are responsible for the accuracy of all guest information you provide.

9. Suppliers & third-party services

Suppliers are independent third parties. We are not liable for the acts, errors, omissions, representations, warranties, or negligence of any Supplier, or for the quality, condition, or safety of the travel services they provide. Any dispute regarding your stay or the services delivered is between you and the Supplier. Supplier terms and policies apply in addition to these Terms.

10. Third-party links

The site may contain links to third-party websites provided for your convenience. We do not control and are not responsible for those sites, and a link does not imply endorsement. Your use of any linked site is at your own risk and subject to that site’s terms.

We do not warrant that listings, prices, or descriptions are error-free.

15. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, BookResorts will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages arising out of or connected with your use of the site or any booking. If we are found liable, our total liability will not exceed the greater of (a) the fees you paid to BookResorts for the booking at issue, or (b) US$100. This limitation reflects the allocation of risk between us.

16. Dispute resolution

We want to resolve any concern quickly and fairly. Before pursuing a formal claim, you agree to first contact our support team at 888-605-1350 or support@bookresorts.com and give us 60 days to resolve the matter informally. If we are unable to resolve it, any dispute will be handled by the state or federal courts located in California, as set out in Section 17 (either party may still bring qualifying claims in small claims court).

17. Governing law & venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any permitted court action will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

18. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The version in effect at the time of your booking applies to that booking. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

19. Force majeure

We are not responsible for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including severe weather, natural disasters, pandemics, strikes, government actions, or Supplier closures.

20. Miscellaneous

If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the site.
