The Palms hotel was a unique experience from the traditional stay at a hotel. Its Victorian style appearance and cozy rooms enhanced the atmosphere. Their Continental breakfast was a suprise as they offered pool side dining and made great use of the space to offer a wider variety of options compared to a lot of big hotel chains. I can see myself staying here again the next time I visit the Keys.

Peaceful setting

We enjoyed the peaceful neighborhood where the hotel was located. It was a short bike ride to the action of Duval St. The breakfast and sitting around the pool were great. Rooms were on the small side but comfortable.

First Visit to Key West = AWESOME

We stayed at the Palms for our first-ever visit to Key West, and would return there again when we come back to Key West for future visits. Located in a quiet area near the center of Key West, with easy walk/bike options to reach most areas of interest within 15-30 minutes, with most all sites less than a mile from the hotel. Nice breakfast by the pool every morning (see picture). Staff were friendly and helpful when needed!

Super cute property! Our room was tiny and could use a little updating. Breakfast was served right outside our door which was great to open your door and grab coffee, but not amazing if you want to sleep in. The pool could use some attention - we were there for 3 nights and it was never cleaned. Staff were super friendly and helpful!

My husband and I like the older properties, we are history buffs and this property had charm and was well kept. I love how the used bright colors to give it a bright warm and sunny atmosphere. We did not stay long enough to enjoy all the amenities, but enjoyed breakfast out in the pool courtyard
