About the Hotel

Key West is a romantic destination with hints of nostalgia. Images of Ernest Hemingway hunched over a typewriter come to mind as well as black-and-white frames of Bogie and Bacall. Heron House, a AAA Four-Diamond Award inn, is another quintessential element of the Florida Keys. Originally built between 1856 and 1860, the hideaway recaptures the southern charm and genteel way of life. There are 23 elegantly crafted rooms and suites, with no two alike, offering a tapestry of tropical appointments. Hunker down in a bed made of rattan cloaked in colorful fabrics, with granite-trimmed bathrooms and original watercolor paintings. Some rooms feature stained-glass transom windows, wooden walls crafted by skilled artisans, or private decks and balconies festooned with leafy plants.

Room needed minor repairs(light switches), but was roomy, bed was comfortable and room was CLEAN..comp breakfast was good and the hostess was so friendly. Enjoyed meeting other guests by pool. And, the hotel was convenient to walk to town.

Impossible to get a hold of

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Called 8 times during business hours, sent emails from their website, and reached out through the booking app, they never responded. We wanted to change our reservation but had to end up canceling through the app for an illness as no one from Heron House ever responded - no credit or refund, not even on resort fees - the booking app finally got a hold of them. Our other key west hotel answered and gave us a refund. Heron House was more keen on making more money by going from sold out to listing our room as available once we canceled, than picking up the phone or responding to our emails/texts. We could have not canceled and kept trying to get a hold of them but chose to give the hotel time to find a new reservation which it looks like they did, and this is how they repaid us. Worst, well non-existent customer service I’ve experienced from a hotel

Great experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Heron House. From start to finish our stay was exceptional. We were greeted warmly at the front desk by Roman who saw to our every need with grace and kindness. Our room was enchanting and immaculately clean. The continental breakfast was just ok but not poor enough to reduce this 5 star rating. We look forward to staying at Heron House again next year.

Great stay

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 months ago

I recently spent 4 nights at Heron House. This was the second visit and there will be a 3rd in the near future I hope. Check in was quick and friendly. Those working the front desk were very friendly and helpful. My room was clean and had plenty of room Despite no daily housekeeping I received fresh towels each day. The pool was just steps from my room and big enough to keep social distancing. Towels are available right at the pool as well. So than you Heron House for a great stay and hope to see you soon.

Great place to stay. Very friendly staff. Quiet and quaint environment. Located within walking distance to Duval street and many restaurants and bars! There is a lot of history to see in Key West. I would definitely stay here again!! Pool on-site. Continental breakfast daily.
