Right from the moment we arrived we were impressed with the El Cordova. As requested, we were given a one-bedroom suite on the ground floor right next to the pool. Thanks, Mica--the kids (ages 4 1/2 and 2) loved the pool and hot tub. The continental breakfast was a pleasant surprise as we didn't realize it was included with our... More

Our most recent stay at the El Cordova was our second and won't be our last, for sure! This visit was for our wedding. We got married on Coronado City Beach and stayed in the Casa Grande Suite, where we also had our reception. Most of our guests also stayed at the El Cordova and everyone just loved it! The... More

My husband and I recently celebrated our first anniversary at El Cordova April 19-22. We had a later check-in on Friday night and it went smoothly and quickly. The grounds of El Cordova are located in the middle of everywhere and everything you want to experience on Coronado Island. El Cordova is a cute boutique hotel and has a great... More

Except for the fact that they very recently lost their parking arrangement with the nearest parking facility (leaving guest to fend for themselves), this is by far and away the most charming, romantic, boutique hotel on Coronado (it's really for adults). The un-advertized free breakfast vouchers for the onsite french creperie, the human sized pool and hot tub, the diverse... More

No parking for the cars. They gave us queen bed, instead of King. The curtains of the rooms were not covering the windows. The unfriendly and rude behavior of the blond receptionist guy. The yelling of the children swimming in the pool at the early morning hours. The workers sweeping around the pool and cleaning the pool early in the... More

El Cordova is reasonably priced, and it's very quaint, as it has a very Spanish feel to it-there's a cute courtyard with a pool, and it's very well maintained. The rooms itself are old and very basic, but it's good in the fact that there's a kitchen and a living room. We got a 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit which... More

What a great place. We planned this trip months ago and couldn't wait. It was worth the wait. We picked a great time to go as it was before the high tourist season and we were missing some awful weather in Chicago. The best of both worlds. So Cordova was awesome. People were friendly and helpful. Food was great...

I just returned from a 4 day, 3 night stay at the El Cordova. This review might get lengthy so be prepared. This hotel is very cute, has lots of character. It used to be a mansion for the people who built the Del and then converted to a hotel sometime later. I booked a 2 bedroom suite for 3... More

this place was pretty nice looking on the outside, pool was nice, hot tub, building exterior, but once you got inside it was like being in a cheap seedy hotel. the floor boards squeaked every step you took, the headboard was vinyl and the walls so thin i could hear the guy above me taking care of himself in the...
