Picolo recommends · Hotel in Key West, Florida
Hyatt Centric Key West
A modern hotel by the water a short stroll from Mallory Square, for when you want a familiar standard in the middle of Old Town.
Hyatt Centric sits on the water just south of Mallory Square, with an outdoor pool, a spa and balconies that look across the harbour. The rooms are newer than in most of the old houses around it.
It is a safe pick when you want predictable comfort, good beds and a short walk to everything in Old Town.

Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Hyatt Centric Key West
We chose Hyatt Centric for travellers who want no surprises: modern rooms, a proper pool and the sunset crowd at Mallory Square two minutes away.
It does not feel especially Key West. For verandas and wooden houses, look at The Marquesa or Winslow’s Bungalows instead.
