Three Great Hotels In Key West....
The Hilton, The Marquesa Hotel and The Banyan. Our roving reviewer rates them for service and value. In November we sent a reviewer to the following hotels (in disguise) and here's the report......

The Best Service.... The Marquesa Hotel - These guys are THE BEST. Ask for a towel and they run.... Ask for a favor, like checking a website to see if it's up and active, and they check and call your room back in seconds. Arrange for a tour of Old Key West, it's all in a day's service (nothing to it). Reservations 1-866-807-5152

The Most To Do..... The Hilton Tennis, The best gym , lots of square feet of meeting space. The best business center. They call it casual elegance and the label fits. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the facility located in the heart of Old Town Key West on Mallory Square is perfectly located and is very well maintained. Pictured on the left is the view from the balcony of room 352 (a moderately priced room) Reservations 1-866-807-5152

The Banyan... an Ideal Shopping Location and the Best Value.... . (It is quieter, though, than Bourbon. The Key West crowd is much more sedate that the one in New Orleans). The rooms are spacious and baths are up to date. The staff, though more relaxed than either the Hilton or Hyatt, is still very attentive and accommodating. A beach is only about 5 blocks away. TheBanyan feels like an elegant bed and breakfast in a great downtown location. The rooms are reasonably priced and slightly smaller than the Hilton's. Reservations 1-866-807-5152
