Brass Key Guesthouse

Frommer's Review

Brass Key Guesthouse, a compound of six buildings, is the place to stay in Provincetown. With Ritz-Carlton-style amenities and service in mind, the innkeepers have created a paean to luxury. They are the kinds of innkeepers who think of everything: goose-down pillows (choose yours from the pillow menu), showers with wall jets, and gratis iced tea and lemonade delivered poolside in season. Although all rooms share top-notch amenities like Bose radios, decorative styles vary according to the building. The original 1828 Federal-style Captain's House and the Gatehouse are decorated in a playful country style -- a loft is filled with teddy bears, for instance -- and rooms in the Victorian-era building are classically elegant, with materials like mahogany, walnut, and marble. In the center is the extensively landscaped multilevel patio area with outdoor heated pool and large (17-ft.) whirlpool. Most deluxe guest rooms have gas fireplaces and oversize whirlpool tubs. Fortunately, those bathrooms include phones, and some have TVs, so that you can be entertained while soaking. The inn has partnered with a local spa to offer in-room massages and other body treatments. There are two wheelchair-accessible rooms. In high season, the clientele here is primarily gay men, though all are made to feel welcome.

Facilities:
Outdoor heated pool; 17-ft. hot tub
