San Diego, California

5 stars

‘The Del’ as the Coronado is known as has been open for business since 1888 and is a designated National Historic Landmark! Indeed, it’s been the backdrop to many a Hollywood movie, including Some Like it Hot starring Marilyn Monroe. The last of California’s stately old seaside hotels, it is a monument to Victorian grandeur with virtually no two rooms alike and a sumptuous wood panelled lobby that has to be seen to be believed. Recent additions include Shore House at The Del, an elevated hotel experience in an extraordinary neighborhood of seaside villas. From an oceanfront pool that blends seamlessly into the horizon, to an inviting living room that flows effortlessly outdoors, Shore House offers an extraordinary sense of place, where family and friends form deep connections in a rare beachside setting. The Del's newest restaurant inside the beautifully restored Laundry building. Dine outside on the lawn and watch the action at the BBQ Pit or gather inside the historic brick building beneath vaulted ceilings and the Laundry's original conveyor system. Pull up a stool at the historic wooden bar from the 1880s for inventive cocktails, beer and wine.

“Hit or Miss”

Jul 07, 2026Jeffrey H

This is a beautiful old hotel. They have a newer wing as well. It is centrally located, convenient to everything. We made our reservations six months in advance and requested that we not be near the elevator. Our first room was not only next to the elevator, it was also next to the staircase....Room 32069....DO NOT STAY IN THIS ROOM. The hotel should not be renting it out. It was incredibly noisy until 12 midnite. The noise started again at 4AM. They should make a staff member spend a night here. Our second room was wonderful...the next two days....quiet and spacious. Both rooms had wonderful porchesd overlooking the courtyard. The pool is busy and dominated by kids. There are a lot of dogs on the property. The courtyard is beautifully landscaped and has astroturf grass. I found it perplexing that dog owners had their pets peeing and pooping on the astroturf.....and kids were playing there as well....We don't have a dog, and our grandkids were elsewhere, but if you have kids, don't let them roll on the astroturf.

“Oceanview Villa without An Ocean View”

Jul 07, 2026Kimberly M

An Ocean View Villa With No Ocean View We redeemed 815,000 Hilton Honors points and paid $2,941.69 for an Ocean View Villa based on the Hotel del Coronado’s published promise that guests would “enjoy spectacular ocean views from your private veranda with relaxed seating.” Instead, we were assigned Room 5131, a ground-floor villa whose patio faced a public courtyard with restaurant seating, guest walkways, the lobby, and a communal fire pit. In our opinion, the accommodations did not reasonably correspond to the premium Ocean View Villa that was advertised and sold. We never opened the room door, never entered the villa, never unpacked, never stayed overnight, and never used a single hotel amenity. We spent more than two and a half hours attempting to resolve the issue before leaving the property. Despite immediately rejecting the room and providing photographs and documentation, Director of the Shore House and Beach Villas and the General Manager David Tortora, and ultimately Hilton declined to provide the resolution we requested. The property retained our 815,000 Hilton Honors points and the $2,941.69 charged to our American Express card. The most disappointing part of this experience was not simply the room—it was the complete lack of accountability. We found management’s responses dismissive of our concerns and of the hotel’s own published marketing materials. After our experience, we found multiple publicly available reviews from other guests describing concerns that appeared similar to ours regarding premium room categories and advertised views. That reinforced our concern that our experience may not have been isolated. We left feeling profoundly disappointed and, in our opinion, misled by the difference between what was advertised and the accommodations we were assigned. Based on our experience, we cannot recommend staying at the Hotel del Coronado. We have submitted our documentation to the appropriate consumer protection authorities for independent review so the property’s marketing and room classifications can be evaluated.
