Can anyone recommend a decent hotel near Duval St in Key West.?

Wife and I are going to Key West in May and need a decent hotel, fairly priced and some attractions that you would recommend.Can anyone recommend a decent hotel near Duval St in Key West.?
As others have suggested, hotels here in Key West are very expensive, especially in tourist season. Look into the B %26amp; B's and you may find something less pricey. Everything is more expensive here in KW.





As for attractions, do the Old Town Trolley tour to get you started. It is an hour and a half, fully narrated, and will give you lots of ideas about what else you want to see and do, so do that early in your visit. Do the trolley, not the train. The trolley is a much better deal.





Check out the sunset or star gazing tours on a couple of the schooners at the waterfront. I did the Western Union (name of the schooner) star gazing tour last week, and it was impressive. An astronomer conducts the evening.





Visit Mallory Square at sunset for the sunset celebrations. It can be fun. Lots of different street entertainers and concessions.





If you like churches visit St. Paul's Episcopal Church (corner of Duval and Eaton) at noon for the free noon day pipe organ concert. It is very moving. And the stained glass windows in that church are wonderful.





Consider the glass bottomed boat tour. Many people rave about it. You'll see it advertised at the waterfront.





A couple of suggestions for restaurants - Blue Heaven (especially for breakfast), El Sibonay (not sure of the spelling) for the paella (you have to order 45 minutes before you want to eat) and sangria, Louie's Back Yard (reservations required), and if you like desserts try the dessert shop called Better Than Sex - expensive but very good (reservations also required).





Walk Duval Street for the many bars, restaurants, and shops. Visit Kermit's on Greene St. for key lime pie.

To be honest many of the hotels on or near Duval St are overpriced. Depending on when your vacation is, if you have time to book ahead look into a bed and breakfast. Many have your own private cottage, breakfast every morning, and some even have a personal mini pool for the two of you. They are also very reasonable. Much less than a hotel in that area.

I've stayed in Key West about 4-5 times. Hyatt, bed and breakfasts...etc. But, I think the best place for the price--was La Concha Inn. That was for our wedding. http://www.laconchakeywest.com/


I thought the pricing was reasonable. The hotel is nice. There was live music in the bar. There's a rooftop bar. I would stay there again.
