Hotel del Coronado

We wanted to stay at the DEl, you know 50 places to go before you die type of thing. Our review. The hotel was disappointing to say the least. It was very expensive firest of all. Second the hotel itself smelled of sewage. Third most of the beach is closed. Forth the food was not very good. It cost us well over $* dollars a day for drinks and food. Fifth we used the valet and they put a dent in our SUV that they still haven

I am not eloquent enough to describe how perfect the Del is. The climate is fantastic, the hotel, its staff, the services and amenities are all at the highest levels. You should definitely leave the windows in your bedroom open and not only for the unbelievable view. With the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever slept in and the windows open to the cool ocean breeze you wake each morning completely relaxed and refreshed. If you like chrome and glass and impersonal service, the Del is probably not for you. It's an old hotel, but the history is part of the Del's magic. The Del really is too good for words.

the overall hotel experience at hotel del cornado was awesome. it was really nice and peaceful. the front desk and other employees were polite and good people.

The hotel is absolutely breathtaking and has so much to offer including several shops offering a variety of gifts, etc. The location is perfect and within walking distance to many good restaurants and shops too. The beach is huge and the view is great too. After reading many reviews with people complaining, I didn't know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised. The only small complaint is the confusion on the * food and beverage credit when the total bill comes - word of advise = be sure and ask on the front end of your stay what exactly is covered on the * per day (which shops/restaurants honor this) Other than this, the stay was perfect!

I visited The Del as a child (many moons ago) and loved it then - started going back a couple of years ago, and plan a long weekend there every year. It's still great. The setting is just so spectacular. The updates have been good, the rooms are always clean, and the staff is always great. The restaurants and bars maintain a high standard, and there's always something new along with the older favorites. I love the shops. Had a problem with their phones one evening, I suspect due to the age of those, but that was the only problem. The Concierge's there are always the best, got us tickets to a show we decided to attend at the last minute. They always go the extra mile. It's expensive, but I sort of put that down to the ambiance and the location - neither of which can be beat!
