We spent last week in KW and stayed at the Curry Mansion. We have been staying here for some decades and it has def gone down hill since Spotswoods took it over. But I have to say if you play it right it's a hit. First of all since it's got such bad reviews the prices are great. If you don't mind no service or staff you can save money. The rooms are nice and sort of clean. Next, the "breakfast" is croissants and lunch meat so don't eat there; we didn't see a single person eating it. Next, their "happy hour" is virtually nonexistent, the bartender never shows up BUT you can cop their glasses and ice, BYOB, mix your own and drink on their beautiful veranda. They have to be losing money out the a but must be a tax write off and I'm in for it! And oh yeah, it's got plenty of free parking, even if you're not staying there you can park for free while you do your thing on Duval, the only free parking in KW! read more

Excellent location- close to Duvall Street and bike rentals across the street. Porch was a gem- nice breeze and a great place to relax and read. Small bar with coffee and pastries (am) and alcohol (pm). Added perk was phone charger on porch since we only had 3 accessible outlets in the room. Would be nice to offer Key Lime pie since it was created here. Also- bag, snacks or light snacks would be appreciated on sight. Bartender (all very friendly) and cleaning crew on staff. (Your room is only cleaned once you leave) No maintenance on staff. Pool looked fairly well maintained. On site community washer and dryer and soap.(Free) Elevator to first floor. Rooms are located in the building behind the inn. Our room had 1 broken window that didn't close (extra loud street sweeper and rooster noise due to open window.) Another window had a rotting window sill and black mold at the junction of ceiling/wall. Door was broken, but functional. There appeared to be painted over black mold on ceiling. Shower controls were reversed and rarely had hot water. Attempted to reach hotel staff via phone and was hung up on. Any emails or text messages were answered via AI response. This property has tremendous opportunity, but is not being maintained appropriately. Anyone with weakened immune systems should steer clear. Giving a 2 star based on location alone. Very expensive for the dilapidated building. read more

This hotel was truly a great find. Situated blocks from all the fun and within walking distance of plenty of places. The room itself was roomy with a great layout. The bed wasn't as comfortable as I would have wanted, though. Our room faced the small round pool, which had a courtyard feel. The big house serves as the focal point. It is a great testament to early 1900s Florida architecture. The hotel doesn't have a reception, but it does have a bar (at night) that also serves double- duty as a pastry/coffee spot in the morning. The hotel does offer free parking, but it is first-come first-serve. We came in at check-in time and almost didn't have a spot to park. Luckily, we found the only one open and claimed it. We didn't move it all weekend and luckily didn't have to, as there was plenty to do in the area. read more

Sadly disappointed that this lovely old mansion is in such disrepair.I can't find a way to post my pictures documenting the following. No longer has free cocktails, nor breakfast...OK Big deal. We picked out our room and ended up in a postage stamp, the personnel said it was their smallest room. Wall paper loose, Termite damage, Bathroom light on an extension cord to the bedroom along with multiple others, light with a short in it. Dusty!, AC blows straight onto the bed, OMG had to have it on but froze in bed. Our room should never have guests it was ridiculously crowed and unsafe. Bird feces on stairs never cleaned. Procede at your own risk. I will say the pool was clean and it is one building from Duval. read more

My friend booked a room here, the King Suite balcony. The room was definitely a lot smaller than it looked in the photos. It's an old Mansion so it had old carpet and could have been a bit cleaner. It was charming from the outside and very cute. The balcony faced another house and a small parking area so the view wasn't the best but could have been worst. The trees made it decent and the house next door was cute. The best part was the location, a few steps from Duval Street and it's the nice and busy part. It was far enough away so you couldn't hear tooooo much but everything was so close. Def don't need a car, and there is a golf cart/scooter rental place right next door to the James house (across the street from the curry House but still part of the curry mansion). Crappy part is there is no front desk, everything is air bnb style. You have to Call, are given door codes, ect... there were plenty of towels but only 1 roll of TP for 3 of us girls and we were there for 4 nights! We eventually ran into the cleaning lady who gave us another roll but this was after we had already ran out. The room was not cleaned once while we were there. Felt like a hotel but didn't have that luxury. It was a decent experience. I would choose somewhere different next time, but the best part was def the location. read more

Curry Mansion Inn - A very lovely spot for adults looking to unwind after a day of taking in the sites and sounds of beautiful Key West. - Hotels Near Me - Key West, Florida

Words cannot describe how much I hate this place. Despite not being able to get a refund, we're paying double to stay someplace else. No on premises staff. Wallpaper peeling off walls. Carpet smells like urine. I visited this place five years ago during the Key Lime festival and made a mental note to come back. It now appears management is trying to do demolition by neglect. How times change. read more

I'd suggest looking around before staying here. Here are my thoughts on this place: For the price we paid the bed suck! Not good quality at all. Put a real comforter on the beds, not just a sheet. Blackout curtains are needed especially if you want to sleep in. My biggest complaint was the first room smelt like mold. We had to switch rooms to a hard room floor. The house keeping told us "it drys out after the raining seasons. It's in the carpet" So why not take the carpet out? Lastly, the bar next to this establishment stays open to 3:30 am playing live music so you hear them all night. ‍ read more

Curry Mansion Inn - Hotels Near Me - Key West, Florida

Disappointed x10. What was once a magnificent Inn has fallen into disrepair and ruin. Every part of the place is dirty and neglected. We opted to wonder the streets instead of going back to the inn to relax. To start, the public space of the house is in chaos, with no rhyme or reason, there's broken furniture sitting around and stacked up, very dirty floors that not been cleaned in months, clutter everywhere. It's like a mansion for a horror nightmare movie set. They wasn't a soul around, I found a small sign in the foyer that had a phone number. I called to find they have virtual check in, but had neglected to send our information so I had to call and wait on hold for someone to get back to me. With that there was no one to tell where your room is located or how to operate the keypad (fyi - there's a tiny check mark to push at the bottom). Upon entering our room i felt my skin start to crawl, the carpet on the floor was crunchy and filthy with stains, the bedding was dingy and worn and there was hair and specks of black on the sheets that I had to work hard to convince myself was not bugs, worn towels, tv that didn't work at all, outdated worn out furniture, broken blinds, broken lamps, a rotten hole in the door going out to the balcony, splintered deck full of spiderwebs. It was a nightmare No room service, no breakfast, no anything except spending $1700 for 4 uncomfortable nights read more

Beware of booking this location. We booked a room for Oct/Nov 2026 and a month plus later I was notified by a rep from Brightwild (Anthony) who "confirmed" our reservation on Dec 9 then on Dec 12 advised me that THEY made a mistake with our reservation and that we booked at the wrong price and that we would either accept now the "correct" price ($400+ more) or they would be agreeable for us to cancel the reservation. I initially balked at this and was told that was not an option. read more

We were greeted nicely when we arrived and they allowed for early check in. We got the owner suite. The bed was comfy, but the water pressure was so bad. We had to bathe at our friends house. The water didn't fall out of the faucet so much as a trickled it was awful.The rooms I don't think are cleaned that greatly because there was so much dirt and dust all over the floors, I was gonna take a bath, but there were several toenails in the bathtub. The location was great. There is nobody in this building. Anybody can walk in this building at any time of night although the rooms do have their own codes. I didn't like that idea at all the bar was closed for remodeling, I was under the impression there was some kind of food here there is nothing And I was not informed that there was going to be a wedding the weekend that we stayed and the music was so damn loud. I thought the building was gonna shake off. It was so awful. We didn't sleep well, because we had to keep leaving to go to our friends house to bathe. I will never stay here again. read more

Stay Away! I stayed at the Curry Mansion, years ago. It was a delight. I made reservations on my birthday, to relive the experience. My advice to anyone who wishes to consider the Curry Mansion, is to stay very far away. There were no glasses in the room, even through there was an ice bucket. I take medication and had to go ask for a plastic glass. There was no coffee in the room, two cups of coffee were $14.00. There were lights missing in the bathroom, living room, and closet. There was 1/4 inch of dust on the air conditioning filter. There was no interaction with hotel personnel, check in and check out was electronically. The bathroom sink had no stopper. There was no house keeping service nor clean towels. The price of the room was extremely high. I stayed at a Motel 6 in college and would rank it higher. I have heard the Curry Mansion is under new ownership. It proves that there are still pirates in Key West. read more

Our flight on Silver cancelled. The airline stopped flying. I found out Thursday. This was to be our spring break trip (gf is a teacher). In my haste to make other plans, I forgot to cancel. They're charging me $2,000. I have to cancel the entire week and we're stuck. Months' old plan dead. Btw, if you leave a bad review the corporate owner of the mansion pulls it down. Read them. Can you say cherry picked? read more

We first 'booked at the Mansion' in 2023. (I had never stayed at a mansion & was really looking forward to it.) We arrived to find just a few parking spaces (maybe 8) - we lucked out & found an empty one. We followed instuctions that we were given to our room & were completely shocked, when, the inst. took us out the side door & into the back! There sits a 2 level motel type building!! I was shocked & soooo disappointed at the same time. The room was ok - but NOT in a mansion (& I had paid more than I would have elsewhere). At least, we had a parking place & free coffee & continental breakfast each morning and close to Duval St. We didn't think we would go back. When we decided on another visit in 2025 - I had a problem finding a decent price - so, I said "well, let's do the mansion again, AT LEAST, we'll have a place to park, free breakfast every morning and just a 'few' steps away from Duval St." Got there to find, no place to park - they had blocked off some of the parking places, to put tables & chairs out front!! Next morning, walked out to find NO coffee & NO breakfast. Walked into the mansion go get brochures & saw a menu for George's bar & spritz. Arrows inside pointed to the side porch. Walked out there to find tables & chairs (matching the ones outside) and a bar with a woman, ready to take orders! One cup of coffee, $5.00 (I don't think so). We went elsewhere for breakfast. The next morning, I noticed a Kuerig machine in our room, next to 4 ceramic mugs (yay!) Wait, what?? No coffee pods!! After we left I texted the mgmt company (NOT on the premises) - they said, the lady behind the bar has some, so check with her. Next morning, my man brought MY own cup to the bar & asked for coffee pods, she said 'well it's really NOT MY JOB, but I'll see if I can call housekeeping for you. She phoned, no answer, so she did say follow me & we went to the other side of the property, she went in and came out with 3 pods! At least, I would have coffee the next day. Our way back we noticed a cabinet with extra towels, & small personal products in case they were needed. (And they were, when we called for clean towels, no one ever came (they DID in 2023). Also, next to that cabinet was a wire basket to throw used towels (what happened to housekeeping). Back in the room, I put the coffee pods next to the coffee maker for the next day & we went out to breakfast. Had coffee at the restaurant & didn't think about sugar or creamer until the waitress brought them. Wait a minute, I had coffee back in the room but, not creamer, sugar or stirrers!! (I took the extra creamer back with me). The room itself, needed a little work - good thing that I paid for a "Deluxe" queen (can't imagine what a lesser room would be). Bathroom a pretty mint green, until you notice the brown spots/stains on the wall, the white putty, where it was patched and the rust & dust under the sink. The door to the outside, at the top, looked like someone tried to break out of there & the windowsill needed painting, as well (I didn't dare look any further). We will NEVER go back there again!! By the way, for the time that we were there, we NEVER saw anyone using those tables that they blocked the parking spaces for!! read more

Sadly, I cannot give a good review for having stayed at the Curry Mansion. The room was dirty and dated. No staff to check us in or handle issues we were having. Our AC was not running well & after my husband woke up with bed bug bites. It was the final straw. We had to fight with Expedia for a refund. The staff in some other location for the Mansion was agreeable to giving us a refund for the remaining nights. The two homes (mansion and across the street) are landmark locations in the keys and it's a shame to see this place in such decline. read more

where to start. they have no heat in any of the rooms. spoke with several fellow guests and no one had heat. wouldn't be a problem if we weren't experiencing a unusual cold front. tried calling several different numbers and had a hard time getting anyone on the phone. maintenance people couldn't do anything about it. they did offer extra blankets. the pictures online are not an accurate representation of what the rooms actually look like. The building is in complete disrepair. beware before booking this hotel. it's unfortunate because the location is great. It's pricey for what you get. They advertise free breakfast but that wasn't true. read more

Perfect location on Dural St, walking distance to most of the attractions, eg 0 mile marker, southernmost point, little White House, Mallory square, and pier. The room was a bit old-fashioned and gave a feel of history. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The pool was nice. More importantly, they offer free parking in the center of the town!!!! The breakfast was free and tasty with old and hot choices, making a good start of the day. The price was reasonable given the location and service provided. All in all, we enjoyed our stay here and would strongly recommend! read more

used to be great now under new management it is a dump they definitely do not care about their guests and do not respond to complaints I would never stay there again read more

Terrible management! We parked the car on the property and the management ordered it to be towed. They had a party in the front yard and needed our parking slot to place a mobile toilet. There was no notice on the parking slot to warn us, and a text message was sent to all the guests but it didn't include license plate numbers so we didn't know this was regarding our car. We had to pay Arnold's towing 500$ to recover our car. The management did not agree to reimburse us for the towing - nobody is on site and they didn't assume any responsibility in regards to towing our car without proper notice. read more

The Amsterdam's Curry mansion Inn is it charming historic home around the corner from sloppy Joe's and all the happenings on Duval Street. We chose this because of the location without thinking that it might be noisy at night. Our room was cool and very comfortable. We had a small refrigerator, great air conditioning, two sinks and a very nice canopy king bed. They worked beautifully around Covid, At breakfast I picked up a shopping bag with clean towels, extra toilet paper and toiletries. Before we left for the day I filled the bag with our dirty linens and left them on the door knob. The small pool was refreshing and I appreciated doing a load of laundry at the poolside courtesy washer and dryer. There were three small parking lots, which were included but they did become a little crowded dicey. We did have WiFi but the internet wasn't fast & couldn't be used on our terrace. Breakfast was included and a daily happy hour. At happy hour there were baskets of prepackaged chips, some nuts, cheese & popcorn. A keg of cold beer, a couple of wines and top shelf liquors with soda & mixers were available. Musicians perform daily at the happy hour making it very enjoyable. Personally, I found the breakfast disappointing. The coffee was delicious, my husband had dry cereal. The bacon tasted like it was made first thing in the morning and kept in the oven for hours, The home fries were like cardboard and the eggs just didn't do it for me. Personally, I think a quiche of the day would've been easier less expensive and tastier. Phil, The owner Was very personable and a shared a lot of interesting information about the island and the house. He suggested and helped us book a seaplane adventure to Dry Tortugas which was really special. read more

The rooms are nice. But no coffee maker in the room , no free happy hour. They had it before . It has changed hands not the same TV's do not work without logging into a site , limited channels. Would not recommend will not stay again no front desk service read more

If you expect quiet staying here, you're not in the right place. Duvall's late night music will blast into your room, as well as your neighbors sounds in the next room. There is no breakfast at this B&B or any on sight employees to ask anything of. I expected more for this price point. Next visit to Key West will not include this "B&B". read more

Bed is nice, location is great for Duval st partying, and a heavy pour of cheap gin during "happy hour". But that's where it ends. FYI I am not a fancy traveler and am aware of overall priciness of the island. Booked based on older reviews which was a mistake. Not just an old building but super shabby. As if all the things that made it cool old were removed. Nonfunctioning toilet. Need to ask again for repair. Using the shower to fill the back tank and it's not because of low pressure and slow filling. EDIT got repaired. Pool was important to me but questionable cleanliness and super tiny right next to peoples rooms and so far not much sun around it. Happy hour was chips. The breakfast part of this BNB - carbs and cafeteria omelettes. For 2k for a week during the off season I'm sad. Came down during the week my daughter died a a year ago and hope I can find some silver lining. EDIT: so smoke detector started going off one night- we were heading out so they turned it off. Went off again the night before were supposed to leave. Have to get up at 530 and am waiting for someone to come turn it off. After 45 minutes and 3 phone calls to the posted number no one showed up so I fixed it myself. Also sadly Key West tourist shops have tons of conservative hate trump junk. So sad. I always thought this place as one of the better parts of Florida but looks like hate found it's way here as well. Not sure I will ever return to Key West. read more

I wish I had read the current reviews of this property before I decided to stay here. The 5-star ratings are from 2 or more years ago, and the newer ratings are 1-2 stars. That being said, this property offers little for the price. There is no on-site staff to assist with any issues, and there were issues. All communication is done via text. It took 12-24 hours to get responses. We had access issues, WiFi issues, cold water issues, and parking issues. There was a lot of texting and waiting. The place looks charming, but I assure you it is not. It is old musty, and poorly maintained. The only real positive is the location, very close to pretty much everything. For the price point, I expected a much higher level of service. read more

My husband and I spent our honeymoon in this mansion and it's absolutely worth staying. It's near restaurants, bars, shops and other sorts of scenery. We are absolutely stay there again next time. It's an old fashioned house and very clean...staff were so amazingly helpful. There's free breakfast and free cocktail...beautiful place to be.. read more

The main house part of the property is beautiful. There is absolutely no staff on the property during your stay. The service one expects from most historic inns is completely missing from this property (no nice smiling faces, no breakfast or snacks, just nothing). The sheets are scratchy. Due to lack of staff half of the people who stay there aren't the types you'd normally find at a historic inn, but instead are loud party people. However the WORST part of the experience was the horrifically loud music coming from a restaurant on Saturday night which started at 11pm and finished at 4pm. For the same price you can have more comfort, better service, but for any price you should be able to sleep at a bare minimum and we did not. The off site management and ownership style is not worthy of what could be a magnificent property. read more

Old shabby; needs updating (restoring) in many places of the mansion. Stayed in room 109 with king bed across from the back of mansion. Bed was a little noisy, but surprisingly comfortable. The room was tidy, but needs better cleaning or redoing. Very flat surface rug needs to be removed and replaced. Closet is small and needed vacuuming. White wicker furniture needs to be thoroughly cleaned and repainted. There is no breakfast or happy hour; these were discontinued. I'm wondering if they are having financial issues. Pool is very small and was cold. Room 109 does hear nightly noise when bands or musicians are playing on Duval. Since room backs up to Duval restaurants, there is a lot of light coming into the room at night. There is little to no customer service as no one is around except maybe the accountant during the day. Considering what you are charged, I would not stay there again. read more

Excellent location and setup for a quiet bed and breakfast. We stayed at this location in their secondary building for my bachelorette trip. They were very accommodating to our group of six girls. The rooms have an antique look & feel but genuinely clean. Happy Hour at the main building was great when there was a band playing, the single pianist however wasn't a fan of us with a regular talking volume and we were asked to leave when we began chatting with another large group there. We were respectful of the location otherwise and enjoyed the breakfast that they served. This was the perfect location just off Duval with a bike rental next door. read more

I arrived at the Amsterdam's Curry Mansion Inn looking forward to a special weekend in Key West with my fiancee. As I was checking in, I chatted with the staff: Patsy asked where I was visiting from, what I did for a living and then casually asked if I was vaccinated. When I replied "No." her demeanor quickly changed. She began talking down to me as if I were a child, ranting that I was "ignorant", "irresponsible", had to "educate myself" and I "should be wearing a mask." To be clear, she wasn't speaking to me in a "tough-love" manner but in a belittling, disrespectful manner that was so unexpected, the staff behind her held their heads down in embarrassment at the sheer unprofessionalism. If their website had simply stated "Guest Must Be Vaccinated," I would have have been happy to book elsewhere but this altercation came far too late for me to find last minute accommodations. The harsh tongue lashing soured my entire trip. To add insult to injury, it was clear she "warned" the everyone to keep their distance. It was like high school all over again. I felt completely unwelcome. I was walking on pins and needles throughout the grounds for the entire weekend. I came to Key West to enjoy myself and escape the problems and drama of life, instead, I was reintroduced to more BS. I will not be returning to the Amsterdam's Curry Mansion. It's a shame such a rude human being inherited such a beautiful Inn. read more

Wow what a shock! Totally unexpected to find that for an expensive hotel, u no longer get breakfast, or have cocktails in the evening as was advertised. There were ghost ants in the bedroom whenever I turned the sink on. There was no heat from the heat pump in the room and it was freezing. The worst part was there was no one at the mansion, other than housekeepers, for the four nights we were there. What a terrible way to spend my 70th birthday! We will never return. read more

The property has so much personality and history in it. It is super convenient to Duval street, clean rooms, includes breakfast and cocktail hour with live music, and they have parking on site which is a huge plus. However, the absolute best thing about the Amsterdam's Curry Mansion Inn are the people who work there. They could not be more friendly, welcoming, personable, and accommodating. In a very short amount of time you feel like you're a guest at a friend's house (if your friends own historic mansions) rather than staying at any other inn or hotel. Tip: book directly through them as they can probably beat the advertised rates from a hotel aggregator site by cutting out the middle man. read more

We came to key west last min on the biggest event ever "poker run" .. every hotel was sold out and we got so lucky that this place have a room open. from the start I was very excited to stay here. I love the old historic vibe of the place seeing it from the picture but everything I imagine it was MORE!!! from the moment we walked in we feel so welcome, check in was easy and the room was super cute , clean and very key west! the staff omg they are the nicest people on the planet! so eager to help. Location is unbeatable.. you are on the same block as duval st. walkable distance to everything. Free breakfast in the morning was great and delicious! don't hesitate to book with them . I feel like a family here! will always return when we come back again to the key! read more

We stayed one night here as we wanted to be downtown and close to everything to do in Key West. Unfortunately our room had a king bed only for the three of us but the room was large. We were conveniently within walking distance to all the attractions we wanted to see and eat. The hotel offers free made-to-order breakfast and hors d'oeuvres at an evening happy hour. Although an expensive stay, I give this place 5 stars for the convenient location and neat experience of staying in an old mansion. read more

Great room and location. A beautiful place indeed. Service was attentive when we asked for help.

We love and visit Key West often and have visited many different B&Bs here throughout the years. The Amsterdam's Curry Mansion is our favorite. The property is beautiful, historically well preserved and locally owned. It's close and walkable to everything Old Town Key West has to offer. It's just a block away from Duval Street, close to Mallory Square and the Boardwalk. You will be close to the fun, sightseeing and bay adventures when you want it and then you can walk back and escape it and relax in a rocking chair on a Victorian style front porch. The rooms are clean, very spacious, beds and beddings are comfortable and again the area is quiet. There is a fresh continental breakfast and happy hour with music (some days live relaxing music). Our age group was about mid 40-50s so it was ideal for us snow birds. read more

I gave it two stars for the location only. It is advertised as a bed and breakfast, if coffee is breakfast, I guess so. There is no daily maid service, you are loaded up with towels, shampoo and TP on day one. No hand soap, no one to empty trash or clean pool, a do it your self kind of stay. We snagged extra bath towels from the cleaning ladies closet one morning. They only come to clean in the am, and only clean rooms where someone checked out. No one checks you in and there's no one there to speak to about any concerns, ever. The wood trim is falling apart, doors barely stay shut and no security at all, meaning anyone can walk on property as the gates don't lock and you never have a key. We found people coming in to get water and some came to rest on the loungers by our tiny pool, which my husband cleaned daily. It says parking, but as no one checks on who parks there, anyone would be able to. I suggest if you get a spot, don't move your car! Wifi is spotty at best, I had to go outside to connect. The wall plug was hanging out and my charger would not stay in. Also a huge safety hazard. Don't stay in room 117, it is the size of a thimble and right over the garbage and next to maids closet so you get noise all around. As I said, a star or two for location, only. Soooo not worth the money. Oh wait, fridge yes, microwave and coffee maker no! read more

The Curry Mansion was built in 1855, and has the look/feel and charm of the southern mansions built in that timeframe. Converted to a B&B in the '70's, It is filled with antiques and curios from the 1800's, including a piano built in 1853. Rooms are between $200-300/night...a bit pricey for Key West, but unlike many B&Bs in the area, includes private baths and phones, refrigerators, air conditioning, and ceiling fans in each room. A full breakfast is also included, as well as a cocktail hour (did someone say "free booze"?). The kicker is that the Curry Mansion is located 1/2 block off Duval St....so if you do the Duval Crawl (I've read about it...never done it myself (cough)), you don't have very far to stagger...er...walk home. We've stayed here several times, including during Fantasy Fest (a Catholic holiday in Key West (no...really!) held over Halloween week every year), and simply love the place. read more
