Stayed here for 3 nights and could have easily stayed there longer, as we had a nice time.

Great location not far from Duval street. The shuttle service works good although it was very busy during the day and evening. At one point some hotel guests had to stand in the bus as there weren't enough seats. Next night they had two shuttles driving back from town. Bob, one of the drivers made us feel very welcome with a quick history lesson driving around and pop quiz'es with cookies as prizes!

The hotel equally made us feel welcome. Check in went quick with cookies being handed out at the end. In the lobby area there are plenty of chairs to sit in. The aquarium in the lobby is truly beautiful, worth a look! Throughout our stay, staff were polite and would always say hi wherever we went.

Our room was nice, facing a quiet parking lot. The hotel is close to the airport with planes passing by. I personally love planes so I didn't have a problem with this. If you however hate planes taking off, make sure to let reception know and they might be able to move you to a more quiet room. (we were in room 301 I think)
Our room had a great bed, flat screen and a good sized bathroom. We found are room to be very clean.

Pool area was great with staff giving out free ice water and really looking after you.
The jacuzzi was really nice and warm. Probably the warmest jacuzzi I've ever been in.

Business room was free to use and had a fax and printer. Nothing too fancy, but does the job.

Apart from some snack by the pool or bar we never ate breakfast/dinner at the hotel. Instead we ended up eating out.

My verdict: this is a hotel worth staying at. Rooms are nice, staff are friendly and I would really like to come back one day!

Safe travels!

Very nice Hilton property...good breakfast options...will stay here again...Have a complimentary shuttle to Duval Street, though didn't use it as i had my own SUV but still its a good service. Pool was very clean and is open till late night. Very close to Smathers beach so no hassle to see the beach area in the morning or sunset..

Came to this hotel on Business and had a wonderful stay. Was treated well and felt at home. Took advantage of the complimentary shuttle which was useful. Clean and a good value. Will be looking for more Doubletrees in my travels.

After searching many hotels in the Key West area before booking our Key West vacation the week of October 8, we decided on The Doubletree by Hilton and feel that we made an excellent choice! We were fortunate to have been upgraded from a King Size room to a Junior Suite overlooking the pool. (I did put in a request to book a room overlooking the pool, if possible, and my request was honored.) The room was spacious and clean and the property, including the pool area, was beautiful! The free shuttle bus was great, taking us back and forth to Duval Street daily. The only problem we had the whole trip was minor - we couldn't get our key cards to open up the door to our room after the housekeeping staff cleaned our room one day. The front desk attempted to take care of the problem the best they could, sending the maintenance man to put in a new battery, but the same thing happened the next day. They apologized and gave us extra cookies as we were leaving to ease our minor pain and we appreciated their concern. (Some people would have been upset by this, but we realize these things happen.)

We definitely plan to stay at this wonderful hotel the next time we come back to Key West!
