Great location across the street from Hotel Del and the Boathouse. VERY walkable to beach, dining and shopping. Room was nice, slightly dated but minimal. Staff is incredibke and daily breakfast buffet abd hot coffe included in resort fee was very nice. Good food, eggs, sausage, potatoes, bagels, etc...Good coffee, tea, juices also included. If are not familiar with the island you shoukd rent a golf cart and cruise around. Be sure to go to east end of Orange Ave and view the Downtown SD skyline from across the water...stunning night views...Enjoy Coronado...very beautiful place we have been going for years.

The hotel is beautiful and conveniently located. Unfortunately, it's also very noisy due to the outdoor Mexican restaurant in the center of the hotel, and if you were provided a room close to it, the noise travels up to your room. The street below the window is also very noisy. The most concerning problem was that there was no parking on the premises. We had to pay $40 extra to park in a garage about two blocks away!

This hotel was a great find in Coronado! The staff was helpful and friendly. The El Cordova Hotel is quaint and historic, and across yhe street from the Hotel Del Coronado and the most beautiful beach. Many good restaurants are a short walk nearby. We will be back!

I traveled with two teen boys so I booked the two bedroom. The place was huge! It actually was a two bedroom (each room had its own bathroom), walk in closets, huge living room and large kitchen/dining area. We couldn’t believe it! Felt more like an apartment. Walkable to shops, restaurants, and Coronado beach. The downside is it’s really noisy outside around the property. Also, the Wifi was spotty so if you bring a computer, you can’t use it on the desk in the living room. Last, bathrooms were the old Spanish style, so if you prefer modern then you won’t like them. It was absolutely perfect for our needs, family friendly, etc. But not a romantic or peaceful getaway.

We felt like we were almost in Puerto Vallarta one of our favorite places. Being so close to the beach was wonderful. And being so close to shops and restaurants was great. We really liked our spacious rooms, too.

The El Cordova is extremely convenient when staying near the Del. Staff was very friendly and helpful! Our room's air conditioner was very loud at night, but we were able to open the windows and turn on the fan. Unfortunately, there is a trash truck that runs daily for the restaurants nearby that run early in the morning. Other than the trash truck, El Cordova was a 10/10!

The location is excellent. Curbside parking is almost impossible to find. Fortunately the facility has parking garage parking available down the street. The beds were comfortable and air conditioning worked great. Having a restaurant as part of the facility made evening dining a breeze. In fact, there are numerous dining choices just steps away. The beach is also a straight shot about two blocks away. It was a short walk with our kids. We all enjoyed the pool in the evening. It is an old facility but the staff has kept it clean and everything works. We had an issue with the television and service came right up. I only wish they had a 3 bedroom unit as my oldest son gets tired of sleeping on sleeper sofas.

In regards to location it's a perfect spot! Although we had a King room, it was very very small and looked out over the alleyway. We were only there 1 night so we made the best of it.

Great small hotel to stay in. My only issue was that I didnt realize the setup of the hotel. We were on the second floor with only stairs as a way to access the room. My fault for not asking. Daniel at the front desk was kind enough to take luggage up/down when requested. Fan and main light in the room didnt work and no light in the closet where we the coffee machine was. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay.

The room we got wasn't very quiet from 11am until like 9 am due to the restaurant that is right in the middle of the bedrooms. The room bedroom cracked so much, and The staff explained to us is an old historic building. Bathroom is somehow small, bed is comfortable and living room and kitchen area are spacious enough. Some staff were very nice and other were the opposite. Walkable hotel, you could pretty much anywhere from it.
