The Marquesa Hotel is a boutique hotel set across restored historic buildings in Old Town Key West, a block off Duval Street.
The Marquesa is an Old Town institution, built across four restored buildings that include an 1884 conch house, a block from Duval Street but quiet behind its gardens. It is an adults-led hotel of individually decorated rooms and suites, with antique furniture, ceiling fans, and a spare, colonial feel. The grounds hold three pools and lush courtyard gardens, with rooms looking onto them from gingerbread porches and balconies.
Café Marquesa, the hotel’s own restaurant, is regularly rated one of the best tables in Key West. The hotel earned a Michelin Two-Key rating in 2024.
It is a couples’ hotel above all, well suited to a romantic break or honeymoon, gay or straight, with no children under 14. Duval Street is a block away, and the whole of Old Town is on foot.

Dining
Café Marquesa is the heart of the place, an intimate restaurant that locals and guests rate among the best in Key West, holding an OpenTable Diners’ Choice award. The kitchen, under Chef Travis Lee, does gourmet coastal Southern cooking, with local seafood and produce, served à la carte or as a seven-course tasting menu. Mornings bring a strong breakfast, beignets included, and there is a Southern happy hour. Book dinner well ahead.
Wellness
The Marquesa is a small historic hotel rather than a spa property, so there is no spa or gym on site. What it has instead is three pools, one heated, set among tropical courtyard gardens, with loungers and quiet corners to read in. Treatments and classes can be arranged nearby, and the beaches and water sports of Key West are a short walk or ride away. Mostly, though, the wellness here is shade, water, and stillness a block from the noise.
Location
The Marquesa is on Fleming Street, one block off Duval, in the centre of Old Town Key West, which means the whole historic island is on foot. Duval’s bars and restaurants are around the corner, with the Hemingway Home, Mallory Square’s sunset celebration, and the Southernmost Point all a short walk away. The beaches at Fort Zachary Taylor are nearby, and Key West International Airport is about ten minutes by car.
