My wife and I just finished a long weekend in Key West. We stayed at Pearl's. I would not recommend staying here unless you are gay/lesbian. We didn't know prior to checking in that this hotel was primarily for gay/lesbian couples. Our fault. We are very open minded, but walking out to the pool area and seeing a large woman's... More

I thought our room was overpriced. The sheets were very rough. There were exposed wires coming from the TV with a surge circuit exposed and hanging mid wall. The wall plate was off of the wall where the lamp was plugged in. I sat on the closed toilet seat and it sunk in because it was cheap plastic. The shower... More

My husband and I just finished our stay here, and I have to say we loved it. Simona was very helpful to us before and during our trip. It's a little off where most of the action is on Duval Street but that was fine with us. First impression, room was extremely clean, and we were able to check in... More

Breakfast is delicious! A must! the people that work there could not be nicer or more accomodating. My only complaint is that the air conditioner in our room could not keep up with the warm 83 degree temperature outside. upon looking at the a/c unit from the outside, the sea air had done a number on it and it could...

I had seen the reviews that this wasn't a 'straight friendly' hotel but didn't pay them much notice. I wish I had. I booked this for my wife and I as an hotel within walking distance of the nightlife in Key West and the location couldn't be faulted. I was also pleased with the look of and the layout of... More

Booked Pearls by chance on Expedia, wonderful hotel. It is a quaint antique house converted to a hotel. the rooms were comfortable and the outside patio/bar couldn't be beat. Rented a bicycle around the corner from the hotel, everything on Duval is within easy riding distance. Pearls is in a great location, enjoyed it so much have already booked a... More

Loving staff. Great outside patio with bar, perfect location, reasonably priced... Frankly, I don't know why you haven't booked it yet. My only suggestion is to not opt for the breakfast package in the morning, unless you're a big breakfast type of person. I eat small, so it didn't work out for me financially. Other than that, I'm looking forward... More

We stayed here for 3 nights and felt welcome from the very start. The staff were friendly and really helpful; they let us know where to rent a bike from (right on the next block), and gave us maps and pointers, as well as a couple of free cocktails on arrival! Our room was a deluxe king, right next to... More

When you walk into Pearl's Key West, you are instantly greeted by smiling faces ready to assist you in any way possible. We were efficiently checked into our room in less than 20 minutes and that included a short tour of the property. When you leave the main building via the back door, you pass thru a cozy dining area... More

First, the good..good location..quiet end of Duval. Amazing breakfast..lovely pools and nice pool bar. The bad...we got an "economy" room..which was on the third floor...we didn't mind the stairs but the size of the room for what they charge seems highly overpriced. Also the mattress was awful! We did buy the breakfast with our stay and paid close to $800... More
