Since living in Buffalo, John and I have loved taking weekend trips to Toronto. It's a mere hour and forty five minutes away and has an exciting variety of restaurants, museums/galleries and interesting little neighborhoods to visit and explore.
We get our Brooklyn fix in the Queen West neighborhood where
we found the amazing Drake Hotel.
Here's some shots of the very tiny but stylish "crash pad" we stayed in.
Loved the luggage racks and woven nylon bench.
Across from the bed is the three sectioned bathroom area
who's only privacy comes from the sliding frosted glass panel. Yikes.
Shot of the hotel's cafe.
And cute shop next door. Loved the Drake.
And loved our insanely delicious dinner at Local Kitchen.
Love the Drake too! We have not stayed there yet, but on our New Year's Day/weekend trip there last month we had dinner there, and it was awesome (also one of a few restaurants open on New Year's Day). We spent all of our time in the Queen West and Dundas West neighborhoods and had such a great time at the bars, restaurants, and shops - and we said next time we visit we'll stay at the Drake Hotel. Glad to hear you loved it, and thanks for the sneak peak!
