The Drake Hotel, located on the Magnificent Mile at the corner of Michigan Avenue and Oak street, opened its doors to 2,000 guests on New Year’s Eve in 1920. Such famous individuals as five U.S. Presidents, Winston Churchill, Amelia Earhart, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin have frequented the Drake Hotel.
In June of 1996, Princess Diana herself stayed at the hotel during her first and only visit to Chicago.
