Located in the heart of the historic district and occupying what was once the largest private estate on the island. The Gardens Hotel captures the essence and romance of the small elegant hotel.

The Hotel's walls enclose almost a quarter of an Old Town city block, with the excitement of Duval Street near-at-hand. Within, one is taken by colonial charm reminiscent of West Indian plantation homes. Restored and enhanced, the main house, carriage house, and an eyebrow cottage comprise the original structures. Two new buildings meticulously designed and constructed to be consistent with the existing architecture provide additional guest accommodations. Century-old bricks from England, Honduras and the US mainland, once used as ships' ballast, now pave the pathways that gracefully meander through the grounds.

Accommodations at The Gardens Hotel are as varied and unique as the surrounding flora. Understated decor, discerning taste and a critical eye for detail set the standard. Much like the garden, gathered from around the globe, the furnishings of the hotel have been selected for their incomparable quality and style. Old World craftsmanship, fine American antiques and excellent 20th Century design combine to create an ambiance that rivals the great small hotels of Europe. All rooms are bright and airy, bursting with floral motifs. The Courtyard and Garden Rooms, have hardwood oak floors, king-size beds with antique headboards and pristine white marble baths with Jacuzzi bathtubs. Two historic bedrooms are located on the second floor of the main house. The arrangement of the Carriage House Suite makes it ideal for a family or a foursome. Tucked away in a corner of the estate, the Eyebrow Cottage, is replete with cathedral ceilings, an oversized Jacuzzi bathtub and shower. The Master Suite with separate sitting room overlooks the courtyard, pool and garden from its own cloistered terrace. A luxurious white marble bath with European sensibilities features an oversized Jacuzzi bathtub, sauna, steam shower.

Amenities have been chosen with the same fastidious care given everything else at the hotel. Enveloping white cotton robes, fragrant French-milled soaps and shampoo, a fully stocked minibar, with imported beers, premium liquors and sun products - everything you would expect to exalt the spirit and nurture the soul.

Awake each morning to breakfast served in a delightful solarium or al fresco on the wide porches adjoining the carriage house and pool bar. While away the day soaking up sunshine, meet for a game of backgammon in the main house or retreat into the garden with a favorite book. You may just find your Eden at The Gardens Hotel!
