Guest Reviews

• christiandJ1351GE (6/5): Long time visitor review... - Let me start by saying I have been going to the Brass Key for about 20 years on this same weekend, take that into consideration of my review. Let me also say that I would still recommend it, it is still a great bargain off season for what you get when you stay. Two years ago it changed owners, the third owner for me. This time it was bought by a corperation that owns several properties and what I was afraid would happen, did happen, it just took a couple of years. It has lost it's charm, it's kitchyness if you will. When you walked in the lobby there was cookies and lemonade and water to greet you. Going by the fountain were these big oversized couch/chair things with pillows of Dolly Parton, with lighted cube tables, pillows are on property but tucked away. Breakfast was always amazing, something different everyday, quiche, fritatta, blitntzes, you get the idea, not, or at least didn't appear to be, heat and eat. "Wine and cheese" had veggies with dressing and tortilla chips with salsa. Now it is literally Wine and cheese (and crackers). When i mentioned it casually/jokingly to the front desk his response was " there were grapes last night." A lot of the staff that made it feel welcoming, Dave, Tyler etc, are gone. I think I saw Dave is back bartendering this year, which is good. They used to walk around the pool to ask if you wanted anything during the day. This year they also didn't appear ready for the season. Monday and Tues by the pool there was constant, CONSTANT activity ALL DAY with planting and ladders being moved and hoses and spraying and leaf blowing and people yelling to one another. That is usually all done by the time I come on this weekend. Maybe the plants arrived late. Side note: the pool was FINALLY heated!!!! That was a plus. I'm not going to stop going. I love our once a year trip to Provincetown, but now it's just another hotel. On another note, the hotel was never garish and I understand where it is located but if you are going to be another hotel and try to be something perhaps tell the tall thin front desk clerk who is wearing his shorts deliberately so tight that you could see CLEARLY see certain outlines is just plain tacky, especially considering there were more straight couples this year than i have ever seen before. The Brass Key, even when it was owned by and mainly visited by gays, was never about that, which was appreciated. If I wanted that I would stay at the bottom of the hill. All in all its just a shame, I was nervous the first time it sold but nothing really changed when the three guys bought it and last year, the first full year this new company owned it and nothing really changed I was hopeful but now my fears came true. If you've never been you'll probably love it.
• Jeffrey (10/5): - Awesome Nothing
• eric (10/5): -
• Steve (10/5): Always recommend Brass key to friends and family - Very relaxing environment and friendly
• cwinSDCA (4/5): Bad experience due to thoughtless or careless management - I checked in on Oct. 31st and was shown to my room, which was upstairs in the same building as the front desk and the Shipwreck Lounge. I was not concerned about the lounge downstairs from the room, having visited the Shipwreck before and knowing it was a fairly chill location for drinks with background music. At about 3:30 pm, I received a text from the hotel, which included mention of a special event that night at the Shipwreck Lounge, the "Get Wrecked" party, featuring a DJ from 9 pm to midnight. After dinner, I returned to the hotel briefly to check out the situation, arriving shortly after 9 pm. The Lounge was packed with people and it took me a couple of minutes to wade through the crowd and get up to the room. Despite the crowd, the noise in the room was not bad, very tolerable. But then the DJ started playing music, which could be heard loud and clear in the room, and I thought, "uh oh". I left to meet up with friends and returned after midnight, the stated ending time of the nightclub-style party. It was still going on, but only 30 or so people were in the lounge. I asked the DJ when he would be finished, and he said after a few more songs. I returned to the room and the music seemed louder, probably because the smaller crowd in the lounge wasn't absorbing the sound as well as the larger crowd from earlier. Objects in the room were vibrating to the bass line of the music. I went out to the patio and asked the bartender when the party would end. She told me 12:45 - 1 am and asked if something was wrong. I told her that I was staying upstairs and waiting for the party to end. She apologized for the noise. I told her not to worry about it and went out for a walk. When I returned at 1:15 am, the party was over and I was able to use the room and eventually go to bed. I stopped by the front desk to complain about the situation the next day and was given a tepid "I'm sorry about that" and a dubious promise to mention it to the manager, who was not working that weekend. No form of redress or compensation was offered. Was this the end of the world? It was not. I had a nice walk around town that late night, but was a little tired the next day. The bigger issue is that I was sold a room at the full rate that was only usable for part of the stay due to an event the hotel itself planned and should have realized (or should have cared) would impact the guests staying immediately above. There was no notice on the website of the compromised nature of the rooms at the time of booking, nor was there any mention of the upcoming event or the consequences of it from the staff member who checked me in. The question for the reader of this review who is considering staying at the Brass Key is: do you want to stay at an establishment that bills itself as a luxury destination and charges the commensurate eye-wateringly high room rates (plus a $200 / night "Resort Fee") but whose management seems to care so little for the quality of the customer experience? What would happen if you had a real problem and needed help? If you forgot something of value in the room when you checked out? If you do decide to stay at the Brass Key, I would recommend one of the rooms at the opposite end of the property, such as room #103 near the hot tub which I've stayed in before. It's a very nice room and would be far enough away from the lounge that the noise and music from any nightclub-style parties taking place in the lounge would not bother you. As for the management of the Brass Key, I understand the desire to raise revenue by hosting special events in the Lounge, and judging by the size of the crowd when I first returned, I'm guessing you made quite a lot that night. But you should realize the impact these events have on guests staying in your rooms (or, less charitably, you should start caring about the impact) if you want to avoid poor reviews in the future. If there had been a forewarning about the party, a sincere apology, and/or a partial refund, this review would probably not exist.
• donaldpG6654KA (10/5): Awesome experience for a first timer in Ptown - We had a great Halloween weekend here at the Brass Key . The staff is amazing , so welcoming and kind . Rooms are super clean , housekeeping is on top on anything needed . Breakfast is on site , and a great varying selection everyday. Literal steps to center of Provincetown’s Commercial street . Central to about anything you’d want .
• minimax84 (9/5): Hippen Hotelchen mitten in Provincetown - Schönes Hotel in sehr zentraler Lage, großzügige Zimmer mit guter Ausstattung. Recht gutes Frühstück, das täglich variiert - Sonntags gab es sogar Obstsalat. Nachmittags zwischen 17 und 18 Uhr gab es "complimentary" Wein, Käse und Cracker am offenen Kamin. Es liegt mitten im Zentrum, auch wenn das in der Beschreibung nicht so rüberkommt. Deshalb ist es an den Wochenenden wohl etwas lauter da in Provincetown doch viel gefeiert wird. Der Parkplatz war voll, wir mussten auf einem öffentlichen Parkplatz für 30 Dollar parken, dies sollte ebenfalls in der Beschreibung erwähnt werden: Parkplatz je nach Verügbarkeit.
• H94FBseanw (10/5): Unbelievably charming! - The Brass Key exceeded my expectations when it came to atmosphere, service, and charm. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a place like it. The warm cozy fire in the lobby, aka Shipwreck Lounge, provided the perfect backdrop for casual conversations with new friends. Don’t be fooled, Saturday night the place filled up with over 100 Ptown bar goers. The contrast between peaceful elegance and vibrant Ptown scene is mastered beautifully. Almost any vantage point on the property makes a perfect photo op and is well considered with meticulously chosen plants, seasonal decorations, flags, and nautical themes. Dale provided excellent service throughout my entire stay from booking, to front desk services, to check out. Kevin was great at making me feel welcome especially during the 5-6pm free cheese and wine hour. The complimentary daily breakfast was just another perk. I will absolutely stay here again. If you are looking for authentic Provincetown charm, this place truly delivers.
• David (10/5): - Very well maintained property. We had a nice stay.
• Nicolas (10/5): -
• 131robertf (10/5): Another Great Stay at Brass Key… - Stayed at the Brass Key Guesthouse for two weekday nights this week. What a great stay…!!! Kevin’s Welcome and Tour from the Front Desk was very accommodating and helpful. Room was suburb. Dale was very accommodating during their excellent breakfast. And Kate served my family well as bartender of The Shipwreck Lounge, a great space to relax and have drinks with family and friends. Highly recommend staying here whenever you are in Provincetown, on-season or off-season.
• Meredith (10/5): - Easy walk to shops and restaurants. Staff was very accommodating.
• O9875KZkh (10/5): Enjoyable get away - We had a wonderful time staying two days at the Brass Key. We arrived late for check in and were pleasantly greeted by Kevin and Pat. The room was beautiful and spacious. We thoroughly enjoyed the fireplace. The ShipWreck lounge was a blast where we met friends and socialized the evenings away. Service was great, thanks Eder and Kate. Breakfast was fabulous On our departing morning, the French toast, bacon, eggs and coffee were outstanding thanks to John.
• Bettyack (10/5): Great time in PTown - Fantastic couple of nights. Our room was beautiful and spacious. The staff were excellent. We were pleasantly greeted by Kevin and Pat. We loved our delicious breakfast with John. We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the Shipwreck lounge.
• John (8/5): - F
• Joseph (10/5): - Beautiful place, great location. Friendly people, relaxed atmosphere.
• Bob (10/5): - Property and amenities are great, staff was fabulous. Rooms are a little tired, especially given the price point.
• Brian (10/5): - Great location in the middle of town. Staff were very helpful. We appreciated the free parking and bicycles to borrow for riding across town.
• Michael (8/5): - Nice inn centrally located to everything. Staff are helpful, cleaning staff were excellent. Overall a nice atmosphere well appointed, breakfast in the morning was convenient. The rooms need a refresh overall that was the general opinion from most guests that were staying at the inn. Cheap furniture, rusting metal baseboards, exposed electrical, hairdryer and some outlets didn’t work. Staff not available until after 8:00 p.m. unless you call some random person. It’s time for a cash infusion into the property and what a great time to do it—out of season.
• John (10/5): - Beautiful safe environment only 1 block from Commercial Street.
• Flyer720255 (10/5): Terrific in all ways! - Refreshing hospitality! Reggie upon check in eagerly solved my parking needs and offered effort in all ways cheerfully. The housekeeping is immaculate. The courtyard pool delightful in swimming and a pleasant sanctuary from the hustle bustle elsewhere. They have mastered both a vibrant social setting yet offer restorative retreat in an impressive balance. Breakfast was hearty fresh and a bonus in enjoyable outdoors social spaces. In every instance the service was impeccably attentive and full of positivity. Location is wonderful. I was mostly impressed by how responsive the staff were to meet all needs. I look forward to returning again and again and again.
• Kirstin (10/5): -
• Nicholas (10/5): - The property is well maintained, the pool and hot tub were great to use and the weather was perfect for laying out, the property is conveniently located just one block from the Main Street making it quiet at the right times. Our room overlooked the pool area, and the air conditioner worked great. (Not every room does) The on premise bar was a popular hang out in the evenings/nights attracting a lot of people and even after looking at other bars we would still end up enjoying the evening at our hotel.
• Frank (10/5): - Greay
• Evan (10/5): - Always a fantastic stay. Property is adorable, in a great location, and staff is so wonderful.
• Joseph (10/5): - Beautiful!
• 931arinaa (10/5): Lovely little getaway - We celebrated our anniversary there and it was marvelous! The Front desk staff, Kevin and Jovan, were very welcoming and helpful, accompanying us to the room. The rooms are well maintainted and to our suprise they had mouthwash, makeup removing wipes, slippers, ropes, etc. While the property is not big, it felt like there was everything to stay entertained on site. Wine social and cookouts were fun. Definitely will be back!
• Jill (8/5): - Love Kevin on the front desk! Comfortable lodging. Big pool party, lots of fun during bear week.
• Mark (9/5): Excellent propert and very friendly staff - Beautiful facilities, very nice room, and helpful, friendly staff The base price of the room before taxes and fees was lower in my hotel search then changed to be a lot higher when I went to process the payment, which was disappointing.
• Robert (10/5): -
• 444aeshag (10/5): A wonderful visit - The Brass Key was an absolutely delightful stay! The cabana suite gave us a wonderful view and we enjoyed the hot tub and pool to its full extent. It's proximity to main street made it easy to enjoy town and along with this we got wonderful tips from everybody we met. From the very start, Dale gave us a tour of the area and showed us bikes to ride around town, Jovan greeted us warmly and made sure we had snacks, and Reggie and Patrick gave us wonderful recommendations on where to go in town and the best restaurants. I highly recommend The Brass Key for anybody looking for a great visit to Provincetown and can't wait to go back!
• TylerO308 (10/5): A Wonderful Stay in Provincetown. - I stayed at the Brass key and couldn't be happier with the experience I had. The Cabana suite was delightful and spacious, making us feel right at home. The staff was so helpful with making us feel welcome. Dale gave us a wonderful tour of the property which highlighted how beautiful everything was. Being the week of Carnival the town was very crowded but Reggie assisted us with parking and making sure we had a spot to put the vehicle. Jovan at the front desk was also very nice and gave us a snack and water while we got checked in. When we checked out Patrick, the manager asked us about our experience and was wonderful to converse with. I will definitely be staying again the next time I travel to Provincetown!
• Glenn (10/5): - Happy Hour was great. Enjoyed meeting other guests.
• mylened413 (10/5): Exceptional service in a beautiful property in the center of town - Beautiful property and can not beat the location. We have been coming for many years. We must say the service this year has been exceptional. The staff has gone above and beyond to cater to anything we needed. From John Jay getting breakfast at the crack of dawn, to Amanda making us smile at night at the bar and of course Andrea, the facility manager, personalizing our room with our favorite soft drinks and AC temp so we can recover in between with a good night sleep!
• F1655DSannd (10/5): 10 out 10 Guest Experience at the Brass Key in Provincetown MA - My husband and I were lucky enough to book a last minute one night stay at this lovely guesthouse. The hospitality was outstanding and the staff was simply fabulous. Shout out to Pat, Dale, Kevin and Jovan for making us feel so welcome. Brian from the Shipwreck Lounge served us super cocktails by the infinity pool. We also enjoyed the wine and cheese happy hour. Our room was so comfortable and immaculate. The location is a walk to everything “P Town” that you would want to experience. We had so much fun and hope to return again in the future. Five star for sure! Ann DeFazio
• PDFAZ (10/5): Hidden Gem - Thank you so much to Pat and Dale for hosting my wife and me at the Brass Key. First time at this beautiful little hideaway. The architecture and style of this resort is something to be hold. Everyone was so warm and helpful. The grounds, pool area and rooms were perfect. The decor and furnishings throughout the resort are unique and fit so well with the overall design and vibe. The location is literally a walk to everything. Brian the mixologist at the Shipwreck Lounge made incredible cocktails and Yvonne and Paul made the complimentary breakfast and Roomers Cafe so inviting and delicious. Another nod, to Kevin who kept us in constant communications for every and all needs and wants. Thank you all for an amazing stay. Hope to be back again soon.
• Michael (10/5): - The Brass Key is always a delightful stay.
• David (10/5): - The Brass Key has become a PTown institution. The pool and public areas are an area to meet and mingle with other guests, or just act as a quiet place away from the bustle of PTown on the other side of their gates. The entire staff make you feel welcomed and special. The rooms are all unique, but all are comfortable and well appointed. The Brass Key is premium priced, but a great value for the experience you get.
• Rhett (10/5): - Room was extremely comfortable. All of the Ptown restaurants are 15 mins or less walk away.
• burkiegrant (10/5): Luxury, comfort & outstanding service @ The Brass Key - I had a wonderful stay at The Brass Key! When I arrived, Dale, the Front Desk manager, went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The check-in was seamless. Dale showed me to my room which was gorgeous, immaculately clean & overlooked their beautiful pool and courtyard. Breakfast was delicious- scrambled eggs, potatoes, bacon, fruit assortment, coffee, tea, OJ, etc. Thank you to the outstanding Kitchen Staff! The hotel is conveniently located just steps away from Commercial Street where all the action is (shopping, restaurants, entertainment) I highly recommend ! 5 Stars!
• C8744KAlauriep (10/5): Quick Visit - Brass Key is a beautiful quaint guesthouse. It is comfortable and peaceful. We loved the whole atmosphere. The staff were friendly and very informative. Definetely return.
• Kmh0905 (10/5): Quick Visit - This is our second time stating at the Brass Key Guesthouse and we love it. The staff is extremely friendly. Check in and Check out are quick and efficient. The grounds are beautiful and the pool was a perfect temperature. We enjoyed our complimentary breakfast each morning. The room we had was over looking the pool, and it was clean and had all the basic items needed for the stay. We enjoyed the Shipwreck lounge right on the property. If you had back from town and just need that last cocktail of the evening the bar staff is there to assist in your needs. Location is perfect! just a quick walk to Commercial Street where all the restaurants and shopping can be found. It was truly a great resort to stay in. Looking to our next visit.
• Gregory (10/5): Top notch - Amazing property and staff
• 954bnot (10/5): - This review is for the Shipwreck Bar, I did not stay at the property, but gotta give a shout out to Amanda, a bartender, who really made us feel welcome and was so gracious and friendly. She was a real star and we came back to Shipwreck Bar because of her hospitality (and our group really drank). The bar is nice with a patio and gets busy but still not too stuffy crowded. Enjoyed sitting at the fire pit and meeting new people as well. Worth checking out when in PTown.
• Matthew (10/5): Nice place couples! - We enjoyed the properties location, the friendly, the parking, and ptown!
• Chase (10/5): Stark raving out of this world - It was such a beautiful, relaxing and nostalgic trip. You guys made us feel like we were home again, as usual. The staff was so kind and attentive to everything and everyone. Seriously, a gem of an oasis.
• Ben (9/5): -
• Chase (10/5): - Great staff. Great rooms, great loaction. Lovely pool and hot tub.
• Caroline (10/5): - Great stay! Second time staying at Brass Key, would come back again
• GHPTTU (10/5): Nice place to stay in PTown. - Stayed one night and it was a very nice place to stay. Nice room with a shower that had amazing water pressure. Very clean and cute boy serving drinks at the pool.
• William (8/5): Quaint hotel with great staff - Great spot, nice courtyard, excellent staff- very friendly. Room was a bit noisy from above and the club across the street, but it ended at 1am. Room and bathroom were very small but comfortable, breakfast was good
• Albert (10/5): - Best place to stay in Provincetown. Grounds are immaculate, rooms are clean though on the smaller side, and the staff is fantastic. Nice breakfast each day. And it’s convenient to everything.
• johnjzurcher (10/5): Best Cape Cod vacation ever! - I stayed a week at the Brass Key guesthouse in Ptown. This was my first stay here, and I love this place! The staff goes above and beyond to make the stay enjoyable. The room is nicely furnished, and very comfy bed. Inviting Pool area is a Great place to meet people and make new friends while drinks are being served by attentive staff. Manager, Patrick Flaherty, goes above and beyond to make sure the guests are happy, and had some great restaurant choices too! This is a fun, well run vacation spot, and I cant say enough about the staff! I will be returning
• Matthew (10/5): - First time staying at the Brass Key and it did not disappoint. The staff were great, the grounds were beautiful and clean, as well as the room. You couldn’t ask for a more convenient location. Will be staying there again for sure
• Gene (2/5): - 1- I am writing to dispute a pet charge of $240.00 that was added to my invoice upon checkout. When I booked the room I informed the property that my partner would be accompanied by an ADA registered/trained service dog. (Attached ADA Service dog ID card sent to property) I was advised through EXPEDIA that I did not have to be in a select pet room nor had to inform the desk upon check in. I will be making a complaint with the Massachusetts AttorneyGenerals Office and Massachusetts Office on Disability if this is not reconciled within 48 hours. 2- I am also surprised that there was no discount for our room #152 due to the fact that we did not have any COLD running water for the first three days of our check in. While we appreciated the front staff providing us a key for the room down the hall, for cold water and showers, until the repairs were made it was a major inconvenience. I am looking for this to be reconciled within 48 hours. We have been coming to The Brass Key for over 20 years and even had the opportunity to have drinks with the original owner last night. I wasn't even going to bring up the water complaint because the staff was so understanding but when I noticed the pet charges it was very disturbing. Not every disability could be notibile but you should know if it wasn't for my partner's service dog his life would be crippling. As of July 1 I have not received a response back from the Brass Key Property.
• Randall (10/5): - We had an amazing stay at the Brass Key. The facility was beautiful. It is conveniently located to everywhere you’d want to be. The staff was friendly and helpful and really added to the experience. It would definitely be my choice for future stays.
• arn002 (10/5): Even better than last time! - This was my second trip to the Brass Key Guesthouse, and I loved it even more than last time (which was hard to beat). The location is central to everything I wanted to do (only steps away from Commercial Street), yet acts as a private oasis in the midst of the chaos. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with ample outdoor seating to relax and grab sun or shade as you wish. The service is amazing, and every detail is anticipated. I can not say enough good things about all of the staff who are so friendly and welcoming. I fell in love with my room (#115, one of the cottages). It had its own outdoor balcony and table with spacious chairs overlooking the pool and the Pilgrims Monument. The room was spacious and comfy. The bathroom had a wonderful oversized shower. Each room here is slightly different, so be mindful when you book, and there will be something for everyone. I truly appreciate the sophisticated adults only vibe where everyone can relax and be themselves. The property definitely helped make my vacation spectacular. Already planning my next trip!
• 131robertf (10/5): Best Place to Stay during ANY Heatwave… - Decided to escape to Provincetown for 2 nights during Boston’s heatwave. The Brass Key Guesthouse was the perfect place to go. Pool and jacuzzi was just what was needed. Staff and accommodations made my stay so welcome. Shout out to Jovan, Kevin and Patrick for their excellent above-and-beyond service.
• charles (10/5): - Property was clean, neat, well located and well managed. A short walk into the business district and many fine restaurants. Excellent breakfast choices provided daily. It's become our go to place when visiting Cape Cod.
• John Michael (6/5): - The pool staff was amazing. Outside of that this property is not the same.
• Mary (10/5): - Excellent service!
• ron (10/5): - My third time in ptown and first time at Brass Key. It’s TRULY AMAZING! The room was stunning (my shower had five shower heads!) the pool was perfection (even on 61 degree days it was perfect temp) and it’s walking distance to everything on Commercial street and directly across the street their neighbor hotel has a piano bar and a really popular dance club. Staff is incredible. Also poolside cocktail server/bartender. Can’t wait to do it again.
• Trevoir (10/5): - Check in process was good. Amazing customer service received by the staff..esp Javon & Dale. Very modern and updated room with a pool and whirlpool.
• Anthony (10/5): - Best Inn hands down!
• DamianM40 (10/5): First class accommodation in Provincetown. - Myself and my husband stayed in the Brass Key for six nights and it was an exceptional place to stay in Provincetown. the Jacuzzi, and swimming pool were right beside our detached accommodation off the main courtyard. The social hour each evening was brilliant, a great place to meet and chat to our fellow guests. We made use of the complimentary bicycles. The staff were so friendly and welcoming - Patrick the general manager, John Jay in the breakfast room and Ruben and Tommy in the bar in particular, but everyone involved in housekeeping and looking after the property were courteous and professional. We'll definitely be back!!
• Dewitte (10/5): - Charming and beautiful.
• Stacie (10/5): - Amazing stay at this property!! Loved every second of it!
• Carly (10/5): Exceptional -
• James (10/5): - Great stay. Gorgeous aesthetic. Lovely rooms - though there was one window without a blind or shutter so the early morning sun woke us. Wonderful location, close to everything. Few other things worth mentioning: Wine and snacks were provided every day at 5, great way to start the evening. Bikes were available to use for free. We cycled round the main cycle paths to the nearby beaches. Great little perk. Jacuzzi was great.
• Lawrenzo (10/5): - There was truly nothing that we did not like about our stay at Brasskey!! Very friendly and helpful staff, we interacted with Kevin and Reggie the most and both provided top notch service. The rooms were great, house keeping constantly on top of up keeping the room. The outdoor space was great as well. Definitely will be returning!!
• Gregory (10/5): - Everything was fantastic!
• Brenna (10/5): Wonderfu! - We stayed at the Brass Key for the weekend of Pride and the celebrate our wedding anniversary. It was so easy to make a reservation, check-in and check-out. The room was clean and well-maintained, and it is located so centrally that it was extremely easy to walk to any of the events or to the downtown area. The staff is extremely kind and professional. Ruben in particular was wonderful, extremely knowledgeable and talented bartender as well as extraordinarily kind and welcoming. Absolutely worth the money to stay, great breakfast, amazing pool, and incredibly kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable staff members. We will be returning for sure.
• Bruce (10/5): - Excellent hotel.
• Richard (10/5): - Very cle an
• Cynthia (10/5): Fun weekend - Pool and jacuzzi fabulous. Beds very comfortable. Nibble hour at 5 was fun. Ac didn’t really seem that cool.
• Tashina (10/5): - The Brass Key from the start of the day Kevin ( great personality and personable) checked in with a text and wanted to know approx when we would be checking in. They showed us around the property
• robertwcook (10/5): Great stay in bad weather… - We went for two nights before Memorial Day weekend, which just so happened to be one of the biggest nor’easters to hit the cape in a long time. The first night we stayed in a queen room that was over the Shipwreck lounge. The noise from the lounge was a little annoying and we asked for another room. The staff was VERY accommodating and moved us to a beautiful king room on the pool. It was handled very promptly and professionally, which we really appreciated. The rooms here are immaculate and very nice. Beds are comfortable with great pillows. The nightly wine and cheese is a welcome bonus to your stay and free breakfast was a great start to your day in Ptown. Every member of the staff was friendly and made our stay better. With all of the rain and wind from the storm, it was challenging to shop and explore, but there seemed to be an unlimited supply of umbrellas for guests to use. The Brass Key is one of the finest accommodations in Provincetown, and will be our go to from this point forward. I booked directly through their website, which had the best rates using their New England resident rate. Oh and there is also use of free bicycles and free parking…
• Anthony (10/5): - Our stay at the Brass Key was truly delightful. As first-time visitors to P-Town, we couldn’t have asked for a better location, and the warm hospitality made the experience even more special. We’re already looking forward to returning!
• Daniele (10/5): Above and beyond! - The hey we’re unbelievably helpful. I’m new to the area and the my assisted with parking and helping me figure out where the heck to park. Sadly my friend had a medical emergency the next morning after our first night stay. The staff acted quickly to assist and I am beyond grateful . I will ALWAYS come back here when I’m visiting P-town! Thank you all for a wonderful time time:
• Julia (8/5): - Noisy hotel across the street makes for difficult sleeping.
• oceanjuli (8/5): Overall Lovely - The Brass Key is an overall good choice. It's centrally located and walking distance to many restaurants and shopping. The hosts were warm and personable and my husband and I learned about some key PTown history. Every morning there is a breakfast which varies slightly (sometimes sausage, sometimes bacon, no eggs one day but french toast, etc.). The breakfast is average in my opinion as the sausage wasn't hot and I don't like eggs. However, I think most people would like the breakfast since it's basic American fare. The coffee that the hotel makes is quite good and there is no need to go to a coffee shop (although we did twice). As to the room, it was small but adequate. I found the oldness of the building to be quaint. There are old, brass gutters along the rooftops that you won't see anywhere today. However, many of the gutters were filled with detritus (from trees) and need to be cleaned out. Additionally, the roof in many places looks like it will need replacing soon. One thing I noticed is that the hotel is NOT wheelchair friendly for many rooms. Ours was on the top floor and you have to be fairly fit to make that climb regularly especially when checking in and out with bags. However, there are other rooms on the ground level. Also, each room looks like it's unique which I liked. The room comes equipped with a refrigerator and safe as well as an ironing board. There is no microwave. The towels were of good quality. However, my one suggestion would be to give each guest two towels each. As a female, I need two towels after my shower. However, it's no big deal to go to the front desk to get more towels if needed. Another thing I noticed about my room was that the refrigerator smelled like lobster, which lent the room a slightly funky smell. I think it's a good idea to have each refrigerator thoroughly scrubbed at least once a week since PTown features a lot of excellent seafood restaurants where people are taking leftovers back to their rooms. The toiletries are all Beekman, which was a nice surprise. You also get complementary slippers and bathrobes. (The robes are the thickest and nicest robes I've ever used.) There is a happy hour each afternoon that features wine, cheese, crackers and fruit along with a few canned cocktails. The other guests are quite friendly and it's a great way to get to know the other guests. There are lots of areas to sit, as well. The pool looked very nice but I didn't go in because it wasn't super hot. We each enjoyed the hot tub which is very large and warm without being too hot. Everything was very clean and the grounds are beautifully landscaped. My biggest issue was with the hotel across the street which gets very loud at night. Fortunately, it only kept me up one night. I think the solution would be to request a room far away from that hotel if you don't like the noise. The parking is tight is others have mentioned but we always managed to secure a spot. Overall, the Brass Key is an excellent choice for an in-town PTown stay. We will stay here again.

Everything was great, the pool, hot tub, lounge, the room and breakfast. Yvonne had French toast, sausage, and eggs prepared. Bikes are available for use. The location couldn’t be better- one block from the Main Street. Parking was available at no cost. So impressed with the service, cleanliness and amenities. We will definitely be back.
• X6463LBchristopherm (10/5): Lovely Stay in P’town - The Brass Key was again an excellent stay in Provincetown. The rooms are lovely and comfortable. The afternoon complimentary wine and cheese was a nice treat. The fireplace at the Shipwrecked lounge was nice. The pool and large hot tub were great. This is a great place to stay!
• Christopher (10/5): Love this place! - The Brass Key is one of my favorite places in Provincetown! The hotel is lovely, the staff is fantastic, and the location is central. The pool, large hot tub, and complimentary wine and cheese in the afternoon make this a wonderful stay!
• Ana (9/5): Great stay, will return! - Breakfast was great! Kevin and Dale were so kind and courteous. Loved how close we were to restaurants and shops. Also, with the way times are today, the safety in the area was super important to us, we walked around late at night with no fear. Great place to visit!!
• Robert (10/5): Provincetown Oasis - I have stayed in many inns and hotels in Provincetown over the years The Brass Key offers a true resort situation just a block from the hustle on Commercial street while offering an oasis of comfort and style. I have not found anything else on the outer cape to compare.
• Cristian (10/5): - Our stay at the Brass Key Guesthouse was nothing short of excellent. Check-in was quick and smooth, and the concierge was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, offering helpful recommendations throughout my visit. The room itself was clean, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. One of the highlights was the onsite bar, the Shipwreck Lounge. The atmosphere was great, and I really enjoyed the complimentary wine and cheese event they hosted for guests. It was a thoughtful touch. The drinks at the bar were also fantastic, well-crafted and strong! Throughout my stay, I received regular updates about hotel events, which made it easy to stay in the loop and make the most of everything they had to offer. Check-out was just as seamless as check-in, rounding out a truly enjoyable experience. I’d definitely recommend the Brass Key to anyone looking for a charming and well-run place to stay in Provincetown!
• Kaitlynn (10/5): - Excellent
• Joe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lisa (8/5): Beautiful Hotel, but Room Disappointing - The hotel itself is beautiful, with a charming ambiance and an excellent location perfect for walking to nearby restaurants and exploring the area. However, the room was incredibly small—it barely fit two suitcases comfortably, making it feel cramped and inconvenient. Additionally, there was noticeable dust in the corners of the bathroom, which gave the impression that cleaning standards weren’t up to par. If you plan to stay here, I’d highly recommend booking a suite for a more comfortable experience. While the location and overall atmosphere are great, the room size and cleanliness left much to be desired.
• 163randyk (10/5): Our Go To Stay in Provincetown with the BEST host - I’ve been coming to Provincetown for over 2 decades and always imagined staying at the Brass Key as a young guy. Well flash forward to me being a grown up with a boyfriend and an adorable dog and I’m happy to say this has been our 6th time back and each time it feels more like our home away from home. The Brass Key definitely checks all the boxes for a first class resort experience. Its cluster of incredibly renovated buildings surrounding the beautiful layered courtyard are pretty perfect. The interior courtyard holds a beautifully landscaped garden affronting the patios, the infinity pool, and (our favorite) the hot tub. The grounds also flow into meditation gardens, the breakfast veranda, the lounges, etc. Provincetown of course is a magical place but you could literally spend all day in the Brass Key complex and have a fantastic vacation. Tyler and his crew are supremely hospitable and we’re consistently impressed by their personal attention to detail that is well worth the price. Tyler in particular showcases consistently what fine hospitality is all about. His continued graciousness upon our often trips to the Brass Key never goes unnoticed and this is why we keep coming back . And it’s incredibly dog friendly and our pup absolutely loves to visit with us (see attached photo!) Our most recent trip was to celebrate my birthday and we were greeted with a bottle of rosé waiting for us and a hand written birthday card… those details truly leave excellent impressions. Breakfast is a wonderful high point of the day where you can really intermingle with the other guests socially and it truly sets the tone for the rest of your days there. The Brass Key made us life-long fans and we can’t wait to go back next year. 10/10
• W3941MIgregoryh (10/5): The best place to stay in P’Town! - The Brass Key and its staff are a very special place not only in P’Town but all of Cape Cod. The location is ideal, staff friendly and attentive, and the rooms are so very comfortable. I stayed in a new suite and that just just fantastic. The entire outdoor pool and spa are kept immaculate. And they keep traditions of the breakfast and cocktail hour happy hour. Great to mingle with other guests or just enjoy who you came with. It’s the only place to stay in P’Town..Well done to the management and staff for creating the perfect setting in P’Town!
