“Great Staff and Amenities”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 1, 2012

The Artist House on Eaton Street is a wonderful Inn in a great location one block from Duval. Although it is a historic home, the rooms are very modern and comfortable. The Turret Room is great for families with a separate upstairs sleeping area for kids.

The Garden area with hot tub is great for breakfast and to unwind in the afternoons before heading to dinner.

Laura, Jessica, and Jo are outstanding hosts with great recommendations for restaurants and any other activities.

“Little purple gem in Key West”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2012

Stayed here two days in November. This is a large house with a limited amount of rooms (5 if I remember correctly), so it instantly gives a homely feeling. The receptionist (forgot the name - apologies!) was very helpful in giving us tips for dining and places to go to with our bikes - which is highly recommended. She even provided us with a screwdriver to release our bikes, which were double locked by someone else!

Room and bathroom were spacious, bed was great, breakfast was good, including fresh fruit. Property is very close to Duvall Street, but you cannot hear any of the noise. Parking costs $20/night. Overall a great experience and I would definitely return here!

Room Tip: We stayed in the Eugene Studio, which is very spacious, but on the ground floor, next to reception a...

“What's not to love?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

We stayed here two days and loved it. The room was enormous and the king size bed was really comfortable! It is located near Duval street, but far enough not be bothered by it's noise. Parking is available for USD 20,00 a night. We rented some bikes from them to explore Key West, which is, in my opinion, the best way to explore key West.

Surprisingly the breakfast buffet includes champagne! We did not start our day with a champagne breakfast, but the fact that we could... tempting!

“AWESOME STAY!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 16, 2012

Thank you to Laura and staff for a fabulous three nights spent at this wonderful B&B. This property is rich with history and 1800's beauty. Every room had great little touches and loads of charm.

Started the day with a breakfast filled with fresh fruit, mimosas and pastries; spent the afternoon in the courtyard's Happy Hour and some nights took a midnight dip in their lovely hot tub!

This was a fantastic backdrop to an awesome weekend watching the boat races and touring the island with friends. Thanks again for all you did you make our trip wonderful! We'll be back again next year.

P.S. We appreciate you trying to argue with the KW cop over our scooter parking ticket!

“Location and more!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

We chose to stay at The Artist's House because of it's location, but we ended up loving it for many reasons. It is only a block and a half from Duval Street, but is peaceful. Restaurants, Mallory Square, Truman's Summer White House and so much more are within walking distance. You can park your car (in a reserved lot for an additional $20 per night) and walk almost everywhere. We enjoyed breakfast on the terrace each morning socializing with the other guests, and cocktails each evening from 4:30 to 5:30. Laura was on duty during our stay and she is a gem. Not only did she recommend things to do but mapped out how to get where we wanted to be. She told us stories and we learned some history about the area. Be sure to ask about Robert! Our rooms were clean, gorgeous, and comfortable, and we had our own private bath and balcony. We will most definitely return to The Artist's House on our next visit. If you can afford a special dinner, be sure to visit Latitudes on Sunset Key. It is an experience you won't forget.
