My wife and I honeymooned in Coronado / San Diego this past week, and the El Cordova was our first stop on the trip. We really enjoyed our stay there. The rooms are found throughout the courtyards and are clustered into sections. The grounds have a neat Spanish village feel to them and there are many shops to visit. The room was very nice and had an "old-style" feel to it, with plush carpet and an attractive sleigh bed. The staff was very helpful as well. Our AC stopped working one afternoon (right in the middle of a heat spell), so they switched us to a huge suite next door. The location is great too...right across the street from the Hotel Del Coronado and walking distance to lots of shopping and excellent restuarants. Overall, we had great experience there and would highly recommend the El Cordova!
