The Gardens Hotel

Exceptional

Nice hotel close to everything

This is the place to...

Liked: A graceful property with charm and style, The Gardens Hotel is an oasis in Key West. The beds and linens are sublime. The location is ideal. The eponymous gardens are special. The staff are genuinely additive to the experience, particularly Phil the bartender.
Disliked: You can hear your neighbors through the walls.

Tropical oasis

Liked: As the name implies, this hotel is surrounded by tropical plants and incredible tasteful collections placed in the garden by the owner. It is clean and every evening at around five they offer some music. We were promised a certain room by booking, but was given to someone else. The replacement was not suitable for two people. It was too big and it was above the main lobby, so not very quiet.
Disliked: Unfortunately, the receptionist, rather than honoring what we were supposed to have signed up for, blamed booking.com for the fact that that particular room was not available. This is something booking needs to work on with this hotel. The included breakfast was well presented but limited, and but not very personalized, and there needs to be an attitude adjustment on part of the server.
