Beautiful old Spanish property. Loved the one bedroom suite with a little kitchenette. Very comfortable and spacious room. The hotel will make you feel like you are in a different era and part of Coronado’s past. I’ve stayed at many hotels in Coronado but El Cordova is very special.
Very friendly staff, cozy property
This is a wonderful property, ideally located in the heart of Coronado. That said, its location is both its greatest asset and its biggest liability. It's on a busy street corner, above a popular (read: busy and loud) restaurant. If you are a light sleeper, the hotel might prove difficult to find the quiet you need to get a full night's sleep. The restaurant is open for dinner (and active until 11:00) and is open for breakfast (they begin working before 5:00).
Spacious room, clean, great amenities kiddos loved the space
I loved the tile work and old world charm of design and layout.
Very close to shops and restaurants. Staff was nice. Bathrooms are very small hard to move around
The room was really small. We had to have them change the outer covers. They had drops of blood on them. The pool was ok. The staff was great. The restaurant is really good.
Across the street from hotel Del Coronado which is a must see while there. Lots of history. Lots of places to walk to for food and shopping. The hotel staff is amazing!. Upon checking in, Benny asked us the reason for our visit and when he heard it was my birthday he Immediately upgraded the room which was very Generous of him. Room was great, ate dinner at Miguel’s which is located on the bottom floor and all the rooms on the 2ed. Convenient and we were able to browse the stores while waiting for a table. Entire grounds have a Spanish feeling comple with porch lights that flicker. (Reminded me of pirates of the Caribbean) didn’t get a chance to use the pool but it was clean and well maintained. This hotel will not disappoint!!
Great Hotel! and right smack where you want to be on Coronado
Very nice Hotel! Staff were very kind and attentive. Room was great, with beautiful Spanish tile décor in both bath and kitchen with new appliances. The suite was very clean and well kept. Pool was very nice and heated. Close to shops, restaurants and beach, all within walking distance. We really enjoyed staying there and will love to go back.
Great place for a great vacation! Would most definitely come back.
We stay here every year! The location is perfect, it’s walking distance to everything! The beach, restaurants, the grocery store, Starbucks, shopping! It’s right downtown. The pros: location! The 1 & 2 bedroom suites are large and have (almost) full kitchens with plates/pans etc included. The staff is amazingly nice and helpful. And the hotel is beautiful!! The pool is not heated, but is perfect in the spring/summer and the jacuzzi is nice and hot! And they clean the pool daily! While sitting out there on multiple occasions they brought us cold green tea towels for our faces and cold water bottles!!! It was perfect!! Amazing customer service! Oh! And they helped us overpackers carry our luggage Up the stairs! So nice! The cons: $20/day off site parking. It’s a bummer. BUT! You can park directly behind the hotel in the neighborhood for free, which is what we do. Ask for a room away from the restaurant!!! We always stay in the rooms closest to the pool (most recently room 41), and have no issue with noise, but the rooms near the restaurant tend to get a little more noise.
We have been coming to Coronado Island for years and typically stay at a much more expensive property close by. We discovered this little gem on our first trip to the island and have talked many times about staying there and we are very happy we did. It is a very charming alternative and one that we will be happy to stay at again.
Great spot that is close to shops and restaurants in Coronado. Only downfall is there is a bit too much noise coming from the restaurant. But, that restaurant can be a benefit too as it is on the property and has a great outdoor patio.
The staff went above and beyond to make all their guests happy. They let us into the pool area even after we'd checked out to spend the afternoon. They made sure our parking pass would reflect the duration of our stay, not just when we were checked into the hotel.
Great !!!!comfoetable easy access to shops and beach
Unbelievably noisy, should have been a disclaimer about this. Located above a restaurant where noise only ends late at night and starts up early in the morning (cleaning, etc.). Walls must be paper thin, can hear every word in adjacent rooms. No free parking on site.
