We found the Drake hotel while walking around Plymouth and were pleased that they had vacancy. Billed as a 2 star hotel, we found our room to have many more amenities than a 2 star. We got a very nice, big room with a bathroom and windows on two walls. The room was clean, modern, spacious, and had a double... More

We stayed over the Easter weekend And i must say it was one of the best hotels we have stayed in this country. The food was second to none also the rooms were well presented and clean Plus the owners were helpful and very interesting to talk to about the town. So we will return again in the future. More

We received a warm welcome upon our arrival and this characterised our 2-night stay at the Drake. A spotlessly clean, friendly hotel serving superb breakfasts. The hotel is ideally situated for walking to the Hoe or for visiting Plymouth's shopping centre. As we visit family in Plymouth we definitley will return. More

All the reviews are spot on, very close to our reason for going to Plymouth the Plymouth Gin distillery. Very pleasant people happy to help with local knowledge and happy for us to leave our car there late of the day we checked out so we could continue sightseeing. Comfortable room and great value for money. Nice dining room and... More

I noticed this hotel's excellent location right next to the fantastic Plymouth Hoe and the classy exterior years ago on my previous visit to Plymouth, and this summer when my girlfriend and I spent a week here, we weren't disappointed. Excellent service, great English breakfast. The room was bright and clean, but rather small. Minor inconveniences were poor wifi signal... More

We were guided to this excellent small hotel whilst eating out at the Zeus Restaurant (try it!). Having spent a disastrous night in the town centre Travelodge (avoid at all costs) we quickly transferred to the Drake and spent a wonderfully relaxing night in their large family room. When I say large, I mean huge and beautifully clean and comfortable.... More

My wife and I stayed here for a night whilst travelling in the SW with my mother. I'd emailed ahead to check a couple of issues for my mother and the hotel responded and were true to their word. The rooms were really good and breakfast lovely. Whilst only there for a night we still managed a walk around the... More

Found this gem of a hotel last year after looking at many in the area. The owners are lovely - very friendly. The rooms are kept immaculate with fresh white linen, flat screen freeview televisions, and FREE wifi. The breakfast is out of this world..... All cooked fresh while you wait (which isn't long). The hotel location is great. Five... More

If you are in Plymouth you would be mad not to stay at Drake Hotel. The owners Gus & Nicki are SO friendly and SO helpful. My friend and I had a nice comfortable, clean room, and started each day with a fabulous breakfast. Breakfast and off road parking included in price of the room. Close to City Centre, Plymouth...
