The transformation from 1884 "conch" houses to beautifully restored rooms and suites with marble baths and all amenities has brought the Marquesa many awards, including the AAA 4-Diamond award for 20 consecutive years. The Marquesa was rated #1 in Key West and Florida by Travel & Leisure magazine's "T&L 500, The World's Best Hotels" in January 2008, and it has been named an Orvis-Endorsed Lodge since 2004.

The location is perfect for exploring Key West - just one block from Duval Street, four blocks from Mallory Square and the Gulf of Mexico, and a mile from the Atlantic Ocean. A car isn't necessary - it's all within walking distance. However, the hotel offers free off-street parking if you drive to Key West.

The guest rooms will enchant you. They're immaculate, light and airy, equipped with all amenities to make you feel at home...only more pampered. In the evening your bed will be turned down, fresh towels put in place, a Godiva chocolate on your pillow to savor... In the morning, for a nominal charge, we'll bring a continental breakfast to your room or serve it to you in the poolside garden with the sounds of a sparkling fountain and trickling waterfall in the background. If you must stay in touch, we offer two DSL computer workstations for guests and WIFI throughout the property for those with equipped laptops.
