  Boutique hotels are upscale establishments that offer a more distinct lodging experience than that offered by large chain hotels. A small number of rooms, architectural and decorative schemes, exceptional personal service and exotic locations are hallmarks of boutique hotels. Several boutique hotels are located in the Florida Keys, which remain one of the most fashionable resort destinations in the United States.
