<description><![CDATA[The Drakes is a "seafront Georgian terrace" that is described as a "grown-up place in which to let one's hair down". Hotel du Vin architect Michael Phillips designed the hotel interior bringing a "contemporary twist" to the "the original central staircase" and adding "distinctive Deco-style ripples across the bedroom covings". The author praises the "locally sourced menu" consisting of "beech-smoked eel, South Downs lamb" and "fresh fish from local boats". The reviewer regards the hotel service as "peculiarly un-English" with an emphasis on "phoning guests ahead to arrange in-room Champagne or massages and offering a taxi-service to and from their parking spot". The bedrooms vary in lay out and design from "neat 'Yin-Yang' corner rooms to attic rooms with balconies". Each room has "shutters, LED TVs, bamboo-wood floors and White Company bath products". There are four circular suites that incorporate wet rooms with "movement-sensitive coloured lighting" and "window-side" bath tubs from where you can witness "the sea turn amber and the neon lights on the pier".]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The author "bubbles" that  this "beautiful grand old" house, which is "situated directly on the seafront", is just "gorgeous". Drakes Hotel is the epitomy of  "understated elegance" and "tasteful luxury". If you consider yourself one of the "beautiful people", you "need" to stay at Drakes. Name-dropping, she states that "Kylie" does, whenever she stays "anywhere" in Brighton. Entering from the "busy seafront road", you immediately notice the "hush". The "simple" decor contrasts "magnificently" with the "vibrant" Brighton outside each window. Thirteen of the bedrooms have "freestanding" baths in front of "huge picture windows", tempting you to "lie back" in a "mass of bubbles", watching people "walking along the pebbles" or the rollercoaster "rumbling" at the end of the pier. Each room has the same "luxurious" feel. She particularly noted the "seven-foot-wide" bed and a "trio of floor-to-ceiling windows" in the "feature suite". There was also a "seagull's eye view" from the "smaller" bedrooms over the "jumbled rooftops" of Kemptown. She was also aware of the "beautifully pointless extravagances" of "electric curtains" and "many other extras" that can be ordered (flowers, champagne, "Love Hampers"). By repute "one of the best restaurants in town", The Ginger Man, is housed in the basement, with cocktails served in the "ground floor bar".
