What a way to experience Key West. Our first time there and the hotel was beautiful! The property (consists of four total hotels clustered together) was very quaint and tropical and gorgeous! As a guest, you can use the ammenities of all four properties (pools, beach, etc.). The rooms were decorated beautifully and kept very clean. The hotel is within a short walking distance of the ocean and many shops and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

We spontaneously went to Key West the last week of March '08 and walked into Southernmost Hotel w/out a reservation. Got a 2nd floor room w/ a King bed and balcony for $213/night + tax. Considering I am a research queen and only book hotels after feaverishly reading all the reviews on tripadvisor, we were extremely happy with our impromptu choice of staying at the Southernmost Hotel. It had the right "look" from the outside and we found it to be a very clean, nice hotel. The room was very spacious, the bathroom immaculate, and the pool was beautiful with it's cute fish-shaped chairs and sparkling water. Only complaint I can even think of is that their jaccuzi's jets were very weak. That's it. We were very happy there and would absolutely stay there again.

We stayed in Key West Saturday, April 5 without a reservation, as we were checking into a cottage the next day for four nights. I called the Southernmost On The Beach and was quoted a room with two queen size beds for $199. I asked to book it but the woman who answered said there were a lot of beds available for this price, and to just come on over. And so we did.
A woman named Veronika, who clearly does not understand she works in the HOSPITALITY business, told me the SOTB was booked, but that there were rooms at the Southernmost. When I told her the rate we were quoted, she insisted there was no such rate and that the room would be $279. She was extremely rude to us, even suggesting we'd called another hotel in error. (I pulled the number up from my cell to show her.) Finally, she called someone who said yes, they were selling rooms for $199. NO APOLOGY, just proceeded with the check-in. And, the first confirmation she pulled up for me to sign had the $279 price.
After this, our experience was OK. The room looked fresh and clean but there were stains on the bedcoverings . It was an OK place to stay for one night. I wouldn't go back, as I prefer something with a little more personality -- both in the hotel/inn as well as in the people who work there.

Just back from the Southernmost hotel and really can't say enough good about our stay. Friendly staff, great location....I would recommend a first floor room which has a nice fenced in private patio area and opens up to the pool. The best part of staying here is the location...no car needed. The hotel is right on the quiet end of Duval and in walking distance to all the action.

We also liked the fact that we could stay here and use the 2 good sized pools with tiki bar and also use the even larger pool, tiki bar and beach at the SouthernMost on the Beach (their sister hotel) The beach is one of the best on Key West...nice sand, no rocks and fairly large. Great beach chairs for free when you are a guest at this hotel.

Just around the corner are great places to walk for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Mallory Square is just up the road....approx 10 min walk. For the money, you cant beat the SouthernMost. The Southernmost Hotel has it all! I would definitely recommend this hotel!
