Booked online 2 days ahead of trip. Rooms were available. Was able to get an upgrade from the front desk upon arrival. Staff was very helpful and friendly from check-in, to beach attendants, (beach is huge with nice fine sand) valets(car arrived quickly) and bartender (needed a cork to open champagne) Room was decent sized with high ceilings. No A/C... more

I LOVE this hotel and will return again & again. The lobby, the elevator with an attendant, the grounds, the photos and the room were like nothing I've seen before. We had a room over the spa area facing the ocean with a HUGE balcony. The decor and obvious age made me feel as though I was visiting Grandma. It... more

My family ( My husband, myself and two sons 13 and 19) arrived on a Tuesday. We decided to valet the car as we had alot of luggage. There was no wait at the front desk and were greeted immediately. I had booked an oceanfront room w/2 queen beds and requested the Victorian bldg. The girl at the desk was... more

A letter I wroete to management on 7/4/09 To del Coronado Management, We've been a frequent customer of the Del over the past several 4th of July holidays and I have enjoyed them thoroughly. We keep coming back. However, I must say this years stay at the Del has been the most disappointing we've ever experienced, not just at the... more

My husband attended a conference at the Del and I got to tag a long. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a king size bed which was very comfortable and the room was quiet. Alas, our view was not so good (it was of the parking lot). I enjoyed relaxing by the pool and at the beach.... more

I had mixed feelings going to Hotel del Coronado this summer. I had actually cancelled the reservation a month earlier, due to what I feel is the worst aspect of this hotel: negotiating price and room request. After booking online for a $400.00 per night ocean view room, I called to ensure it was in the Victorian building. I was... more

We stayed at the Del in June of 08. This was our first trip to California. This was a business/leisure trip with 2 adults and 2 children. First of all the rooms are really plain especially for the price. They are similar to a Holiday Inn Express except for the bathrobes. We were really disappointed. The TV wasnt working when... more

The Del is a great place - don't get me wrong. But if you are looking for truly high-end resort service and amen ties, you will not get them here. Also, the quality of the rooms depend upon whether you get in the old section or the new section. And that is the hard choice - The new section has... more

While the hotel is lovely, our experience was far from it. I had reserved online and went through the cumbersome process of booking one room and then being 'on hold' for a upgrade if one was available at check-in. When we got there, nothing was mentioned of an upgrade. We called after check-in to find out if one was available... more
