I had a wonderful three-night stay at Drakes Hotel, enjoying the spotless room and luxurious bath amenities. The only downside was the wet room design that left the toilet soaking after showers, which was slightly inconvenient. Overall, I appreciated the attentive staff and good dining experience, especially at breakfast.

My room was beautifully clean and stylishly designed, featuring top-class bedding and lovely toiletries. However, the wet room design meant the toilet often got wet after I showered, which made it less practical.

I had a lovely breakfast each morning, though I wish I had pre-booked dinner for all three nights-dining at the hotel was definitely a highlight with the delicious meals made from local ingredients.

The hotel offered great facilities like complimentary snacks and drinks, which added to the welcoming atmosphere. However, having a mini-fridge in the room would have been a nice touch for drinks.

I recently stayed at Drakes Hotel and had a very mixed experience. The sea views from my room were amazing and the staff were exceptionally friendly! However, I encountered several issues including noise from the busy street, which made it difficult to sleep. The decor seemed dated and in need of refurbishment, which was disappointing given the price I paid. Overall, while it had potential, I left feeling that it could use some updates. 🌊🛏️

I enjoyed my stay at Drakes, which offered stunning sea views and stylishly designed rooms. However, the noise from the busy street was quite disruptive, especially for those of us not used to city chaos. The unique bathroom setup was a bit problematic, too, as it led to water everywhere after taking a shower.
Rooms

My room was bright and airy, featuring trendy decor and an interesting bath by the window. Unfortunately, the wet room was poorly designed, and I often ended up soaking everything in the bathroom after a shower (including the toilet paper).

The location across from the promenade is superb, with easy access to attractions like the pier and local shops. However, the noise from the busy road was quite evident, especially since my room faced the front.

Breakfast was delicious (especially appreciated the option for room service!), but I found the restriction on ordering certain items a bit disappointing. The dining experience in the restaurant was high quality, showcasing local ingredients.

The hotel provided convenient parking nearby, which was a plus. Though the room had luxurious amenities, the wet room left a lot to be desired in terms of functionality.
