"An award-winning restaurant, Poirot-perfect art deco-styled bedrooms, roll-top baths and peerless sea views – what’s not to like about Drakes? This glamorous 20-bedroom establishment, set in a double-fronted Georgian property just minutes from the pier, is easily one of the sexiest boutique hotels offered by the city"

"Stylish, seriously sexy and a firm favourite with Kylie Minogue and Cate Blanchett, Drakes is a gem of a boutique hotel and its basement restaurant serves top-notch modern British cuisine"
Independent
"Think oodles of style in porthole windows, curvy cornicing, rolltop tubs set beneath floor to ceiling windows, mid-century furniture and fabulously indulgent beds in all 20 bedrooms. "
Michelin Guide
"The rooms are decadently furnished, many of them with freestanding bathtubs, and a few at the top of the range are known to be favorites of celebrity guests. Cocktail bar is a suitably swanky venue" Full review
