Very nice Hotel, very clean, nice staff

Had a nice stay, very clean. Looks like it has been redecorated. Room a bit small , bed ok. No chair and there was T and coffee although the cups were ridiculously small😂 parking is tight but got a slot. Breakfast room quite elegant and full English was great. Good service too.

The Drake - A Diamond B&B !

I choose the Drake as a last minute booking, and I was not disappointed. My single room was very clean, spacious, with a decent wardrobe. Very friendly staff at both Reception and at breakfast. Great deal to have a delicious breakfast as well. Good car parking as well.

We were greeted by a very caring and helpful receptionist who explained everything we needed to know. A very clean room and ensuite. A comfy bed with the extra pillows, that were lovely and soft, that we always need - thank you. We will use this hotel again for our next theatre visit to Plymouth.
