I stayed at the Hyatt and while I wasn't overly impressed, nothing really to complain about but also nothing really to rave about. While staying there, I was wondering if I should have stayed at the hilton, which looked nicer and in a better location (but both are close to everything--5 minute walk to view the sunset at hyatt vs. 1 minute from hilton)...go with whichever has the best deal. eat at pepes and blue heaven though.

I wouldn't pick either. Part of the charm of Key West is the unique/funky B&B's etc. If you would like more of a resort feel....pick Ocean Key. Located in the general area as the Hilton & Hyatt, but further away from the cruise ships & more of a "Key West" feel. Just my 2 cents

Terry- the thing that makes it a bad location is that to do anything KW has to offer (except flying home) one would have to drive (and then try to park) or ride a scooter or take a really really long walk to go to the majority of KW's attractions. Whereas staying in a better location, one could reasonably walk to everything. Part of the charm of KW is that when staying in the old town section you can walk or bike to everything.

I just got back from Key West. The Hyatt looked like it was a better location than the Hilton to me. Of the four days we were there there was a huge cruise ship in front of the Hilton everyday except one. I too enjoy people watching but that big ship blocking my sunset view would get old real fast! We stayed at the Ocean Key Resort and loved it! We had a room overlooking Mallory Square and the Sunset. If you go when the weather is warm keep in mind those balconys facing west will get very warm! We had record cold weather while we were there and our balcony was comfortable. If the weather had been warm it would have been unbearable!
Have fun!
