Nice attendant when I got in. Complimentary appy at Miguel's was put to awesome use that night (HUGE portions there, I was nuked). Solid rooms, cute ambience and vibe. Right in the thick of the tourist-y bits of Coronado, but hey, that's what we're here for. You can practically throw a rock to the water.

Our room had an outside entrance, up a flight of stairs, with bar located at bottom of stairs which was very loud in the room. Bar did shut down after 10pm. Room smelled very strongly of must/mold. Tiny bathroom, sink hardly drained and came close to spill over while washing hands. Housekeeping vacuumed and cleaned the stairs outside the rooms at 7:30am for 20 minutes. I don’t recommend this hotel.

It was a busy time of year after Christmas. On street parking was very competitive and required moving of cars. We could have used the parking area at $40 per night but were fortunate to find spots though it would not be for the faint of heart. We enjoyed the 1 bedroom suite very much but it requires climbing stairs. FYI

Upon my evening arrival I rang the bell for the front desk employee, who told me he was the only person on duty and was at lunch. He told me to wait 27 minutes until he finished lunch to check in. Other than that the place was excellent. Many restaurants very close by.

Dated hotel, great location. Very walkable few blocks to the beaches. Great dining options in the area. Pool was freezing cold and hot tub was cold as the pool. Staff was non existence. Beautiful open concept hotel with resturants on site BUT zero security. Anyone off the street is walking around common areas because of stores and shops .over-all i would stay again for convenience .

My stay at the El Cordova Hotel on Coronado Island was absolutely wonderful! This gorgeous boutique hotel, perfectly positioned across from the iconic Hotel del Coronado and stunning Coronado Beach, is a true gem. The villa-style architecture and historic Mexican charm create an unforgettable atmosphere. Our small suite was spacious, beautifully appointed, and provided all the comforts we needed. The charming courtyard, complete with a cozy fire pit, was perfect for chilly evenings, while the pool and hot tub were just right for relaxation. With fantastic restaurants and hidden shops only steps away, everything was incredibly convenient. I can’t wait to return and highly recommend this delightful hotel!

Very much a niche property. No elevator, many steps. Not good for a senior woman with 2 weeks worth of luggage. Room didn't feel totally clean. Parking was an extra cost and a fairly long hike from the hotel. Staff was moderately helpful.
