Concierge "The vibe keeps with Key West's good-time feel, and the property is a very popular spot for weddings."
Fodor's "This hotel's location on the quiet end of Duval means you don't have to deal with the hustle and bustle of downtown unless you want to—it's within a 20-minute walk." Full review
Frommer's "Revamped in 2008, this beachfront hotel -- one of very few in Key West -- offers 127 rooms, all with views of the Atlantic, a huge oceanfront pool, and lively pool bar." Full review
Star Service "It is true to its clientele, offering high standards, fair rates and easy access to perhaps the best beach on the island." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"Comprising three separate, luxe hotel properties right by small but beautiful South Beach... the stylish guestrooms here have luxury linens, iPod docks, balconies and marble bathrooms."
Star Service "While nearly everything remains the same, there have been a few upgrades to the motel units in the Duval section, wherein guests can still pull their cars up to the ground-floor units for convenience." Full review

"Aptly-named Southernmost Beach Resort is a sprawling seaside retreat composed of a variety of hotel concepts, including an oceanfront resort, historic bed and breakfast inn and poolside guest rooms." Full review

"The Crowne Plaza is a National Historic Landmark dating to 1926, but today this mid-range chain is well past its prime, and lacks the charm of other historic hotels, like The Weatherstation Inn." Full review
Star Service "The chain may not be well-known for its resorts, but this property provides a dependable base for both leisure and business travelers." Full review
Frommer's "Now part of the Crowne Plaza brand, the La Concha has managed to keep up with the times fairly nicely while both preserving key elements of its historic flair." Full review

If you want to sleep better at night, ask for a room in back.
Lonely Planet "A chain hotel, Crowne Plaza La Concha has a top-floor bar and observatory open to nonguests (though you’ll mainly gaze at unexciting rooftops)." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"The tallest building in Key West at six stories high and one of the most iconic, La Concha Hotel & Spa is located in the centre of Duval Street amidst all the hubbub." Full review
Fodor's "Historic properties always have their quirks, and La Concha is no exception, but...this property also provides guests with a sought-after location, and plenty of fun and indulgent amenities." Full review
