Chelsea House Pool And Gardens

Our room was on the third floor with steep narrow stairs. If we entered from the outside, there were even more flights of stairs (62 in all). For a couple of senior citizens this was a little bit much. The room had a very steep slanted ceiling, and we had to be careful getting in and out of bed so we wouldn't bang our head. The front desk clerk offered no information or directions to us on check-in (this was our first visit to Key West). We figured out later that it probably wasn't broken, just the water pressure was so low that it took several minutes for the tank to refill. The complimentary breakfast in the morning was adequate but certainly not inspired. We would not recommend this hotel to a friend, and when we return to Key West we plan to stay outside the downtown area and use the shuttle system to get around. We wouldn't mind paying a premium price for the location, if the facilities and service matched, but definitely feel it was overpriced for what we received. Perhaps those who stayed in better rooms on the lower levels might have had a more pleasant experience. read more

This is a beautifully restored set of houses. It is only 2 blocks from Duval ST. and you can park and walk to all of the major attractions. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. I wish we had stayed longer.

The location of the hotel was great if you are planning on visiting the Duval Street area. We were able to walk to every place we visited. The only problem with the hotel has small wine coolers in the rooms that do not get you drinks much colder that room temperature.
