This charming mid-range bed-and-breakfast is close enough to Key West action to be considered convenient, but secluded enough to still be a relaxing retreat. With the Ambrosia within fast walking distance of Duval Street, Mallory Square, and the historic seaport, guests often venture out after enjoying the free daily breakfast served in a gazebo, but they can also be seen relaxing in the hotel's two pools, hot tub, or courtyard. There are 20 rooms here, each with its own distinctive theme, size, and pricing. Situated in a former tropical nursery, the grounds are lush and a popular site for destination weddings.

One of the only modern hotels in Key West -- ironically situated in the Historic District -- this upper-mid-range, 50-room property is an ideal vacation spot. Close to the action but far enough away to also be quiet, guests can walk to Duval Street or spend the day lounging by the hotel's lovely pool. The rooms are minimally decorated but bright and airy with tile floors, cool colors, and modern amenities like large flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. There’s no on-site restaurant or bar, though there are plenty of options nearby, but there is a free daily continental breakfast.

Composed of two houses, one built in 1891 and the other in 1905, this beautiful, mid-range Key West property is a classic part of the Historic Key West Inns and located in the area’s historical district. Last renovated in 2005 and with 33 rooms available, the hotel has tropical, rustic decorations. Guest units are equipped with modern conveniences like flat-screen TVs and mini-fridges, though noise from the main street can travel to rooms. Visitors have also complained about the poor condition of rooms, from dirty bathrooms to moldy walls. Limited amenities include a heated pool with sundeck surrounded by palm trees.

Part of the Historic Key West Inns chain, the Lighthouse Court consists of 40 guest rooms scattered throughout 10 conch buildings. Palm trees shade the property and the courtyard pool is flanked by the Mojito Bar and Cafe, which offers light fare and cocktails. Still, travelers may have to contend with a number of cons which include small rooms, shabby furnishings, inauthentic decor, and a chaotic parking situation. But if location is more what matters, then Lighthouse Court's location -- within the area's historic district and just one block off Duval Street -- is prime.

The 222-room Marriott Key West Beachside Hotel is a waterfront property located away from the party atmosphere of downtown Key West (a free shuttle takes guests to and from the action).
