Stayed at the Gardens in 2005 (right before hurricane Katrina!) and had looked forward to returning every day since. We finally got our wish last month, and the Gardens did not disappoint. Everyone on the staff is wonderful, particularly Cindy and Billy. We missed the cats that were there in 2005 and were sorry to hear that they had passed... more

Just got back from a wonderful stay at this hotel. We were greeted with champagne on our arrival by the front desk. The hospitaliaty was fantastic. Our room was beautiful with wood flooring, flat screen tv, very clean and decorative. The hotel was booked but it was so quiet we felt like the only guests. The continental breakfast was wonderful... more

Lovely, quiet hotel located just off Duval Street (the main street). The pool was small but clean and quiet. Breakfast was excellent, you have to try the cinnamon toast with maple syrup! And the complimentary iced tea while sunbathing around the pool was delicious! Room was a good size and very clean, although the fridge and coffee making facilities were... more

First, I've seen reviews about the bartender....I don't know if the guy was on vacation or something, but the bar was relatively unimpressive, especially with the plethora of establishments (and I don't mean Sloppy Joes) waiting for you on Duvall Street. Anyway, not a negative in my opinion, but I was expecting more. In terms of the hotel itself, the... more

My husband and I chose the Gardens Hotel and the Island City Hotel for our 4 nights in Key West in June 2008.Despite the rave reviews for the Gardens we found it to be nice but nothing to get excited about. Our room near the pool was VERY small with a small closet and no drawer space. The grounds should... more

Location, KATIE, Rooms, with parking, the entire package was better than expected. This is the best location for exploring all of Key West and its quiet, peaceful and the staff is great. We were there on a Sunday night and they had a Jazz Band at the Pool, which has a bar adjacent. Have traveled the world and this is... more

Based on this website, we booked a stay at The Gardens and were so pleased with everything! The staff goes out of their way to ensure that your stay is comfortable and pleasing in every way. The property is beautiful and kept immaculately. The breakfasts are sumptuous and the patio is a peaceful and cheerful place to start the day.... more

The Gardens Hotel gives you the best of both worlds in Key West. It offers you the tropical setting and ambience that a "commercial" hotel could never provide as you step through the gates and are overwhelmed with the facility and service and as you step outside the gate you are a two minute walk from Duval St. The staff... more

My finance and I picked this hotel from reading about it online. We weren't sure exactly what we were going to get, but it was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The hotel staff were helpful and so nice. They recommended several places for us to see and eat at. They sent us to some of... more
