#1 of 9 hotels in Old Town & Duval Street by Axel's take. Old Town & Duval Street is #1 of 6 places to stay in Key West. The best hotels in Old Town & Duval Street, ranked · Where to stay in Key West

Axel's take: 9.4/10

An exceptional Old Town boutique for couples who prefer gardens to beachfront bustle. A historic 4-star boutique hotel in Old Town Key West, scored for what it is.

The Gardens is a historic 4-star boutique hotel one block from Duval Street, and a strong pick for a romantic Key West stay. Recent Tripadvisor and Expedia guests consistently praise the clean, comfortable rooms, genuinely helpful staff and surprisingly peaceful grounds. The tropical gardens give it real character, while heated pools, included made-to-order breakfast and a wine gallery make lingering here part of the appeal.

The trade-offs are mostly about fit: this is an intimate Old Town property, not a beachfront resort, and the traditional décor won't suit minimalist tastes. Parking costs extra and is first-come, first-served; guests must be 16 or older. Expedia also lists no elevator, so confirm room access if stairs are difficult. We'd choose it for personal service and walkability, but skip it for a family beach vacation.

  • Best for: Couples celebrating an anniversary; Exploring Old Town on foot; Garden and historic-hotel lovers

  • Watch out for: Guests must be 16 or older; Paid, first-come parking; No elevator; confirm room access

  • Location: One block from Duval Street, convenient for Old Town restaurants and sights; not beachfront.

  • Rooms: Individually decorated, traditional rooms and cottages; recent guests repeatedly praise comfort.

  • Cleanliness: Strong praise across recent Tripadvisor and Expedia reviews, without a recurring cleanliness problem.

  • Service: Personal attention, local recommendations and helpful problem handling are consistent strengths.

  • Amenities: Heated pools, included cooked-to-order breakfast, tropical gardens, wine gallery and live music.

  • Fees and surprises: The hotel confirms no resort fee; parking is charged separately and subject to availability.
