Hotel del Coronado, Curio Collection by Hilton

We stayed in the old Victorian building with a balcony overlooking the courtyard garden. It was a beautifully appointed room with lots of space. Everything about the properly is lovely. As a luxury hotel be prepared to pay luxury prices. (Over $200 for 4 beach lounge chairs and two umbrellas for the day). You definitely get what you pay for though, it’s an amazing properly.

Great

What a marvelous, classic property, with. . the best service. The beach was unobstructed, pool was fantastic

We had a terrible room high up but with NO view. White concrete walls surrounded our outdoor veranda completely. We had asked for a ground floor. Not pleased. I also did not appreciate being told to wait for 4pm to have access to my room when I paid for the day use of that room on Day 1 as well as the night. Travelers are tired and want to shower and relax after a long plane ride. Put more staff on to ready the rooms much sooner. Not what I expected from an historic upscale luxury hotel that hosted famous people. We also were not told that we could use the pool while awaiting our room. I did ask for another room but first was offered one for an additional $150. Bad PR. Then after I responded, they offered to help look for another but we were leaving by then. Customer service was average run of the mill check in you'd get from $160 a night hotel chains, not Hotel del Coronado.

It was so fun, especially with kids
