We feel that Glorietta Bay Hotel main building is
beautiful hotel with great people that work there.
However we did have an issue with the AC turning on and off during the night which I notified the staff.
It was coming on and off every 10 to 15 minutes very loud and not always cooling like it was just the compressor.
Also I would like to say that the room is very dated
seems that doing an upgrade hasn’t been a priority
and that is a shame.

We planned this trip to be close to our daughter's husband who is stationed on Coronado. We have been to San Diego many times but the first time we stayed on Coronado. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. The staff were so amazing to our daughter and her new husband. The hot breakfast choices were excellent. We enjoyed the pool. We were so close to walk to the beach, great restaurants, and fun shops. Would def stay here again.

My stay at the Glorietta Bay Inn was truly memorable. The hotel’s historic charm gives it a unique character that you won’t find in most modern hotels, while still offering a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The location is unbeatable—just steps from Coronado Beach, directly across from the iconic Hotel del Coronado, and within walking distance of great restaurants and shops. I just have gotta surgery and I needed a place to relax and this was amazing and relaxing before I took my flight back home I highly recommend I had book an upstairs room but they switch me to downstairs which was so helpful Juan was amazing and kind I will be coming back one day thank you again

Not the usual hotel set up—very quaint. Breakfast selections varied and were very, very good.I was aware of only two ice machines on the premises. We stayed on a second floor. The facility has no elevators. We checked in late in the evening and we had to carry our luggage up a flight of stairs. Grateful that at age 69 I was able to do it.

Resort taxes are absurd. This is not a resort, it’s a hotel with a pool. The breakfast is minimal. The eating area is too small when the hotel is full. The bathroom hasn’t been updated in years. The mattress was sagging on the edge. On the plus side Coronado is amazing and the location of the hotel is excellent. The desk staff and the housekeeping staff were very nice.

I've stayed in Coronado since the 1970s and stayed in a lot of different properties. I was traveling with my Grandkids and the beach chairs. beach umbrellas, toys , boogie boards and beach towels were a big hit with the grandkids. The staff are amazing and mthe excellent.ost have been with the hotel for years and were magicians at getting the impossible. We had 2 rooms, one in the original spreckles home and the other a larger suite with full kitchen. Cleanliness was impeccable and the antique furniture in the original home added to the ambiance. I have only positive things to say about this property. The breakfast was really good with lots of choices for all tastes. Keep up the excellent work.

The hotel is very conveniently located across from the famous Del. Unfortunately, our room was not as clean as it could've been. When we were out for the day, they brought towels into the room but did not even make the bed.
The shower was a trickle, which made it very difficult to bathe properly.
As for amenities, there's a small motel sized pool. The parking lot was very small, but fortunately we found a spot.
Breakfast was adequate, pretty much the typical free breakfast you get at most smaller hotels.
I thought the $40 a day \"resort fee\" was a bit excessive for the amenities provided.
The front desk staff was excellent.
The main lobby is quite lovely, but the rooms, at least where we stayed, need a refresh desperately!

We stayed on the 2nd floor with great views. The only hard part is there is no elevator so we had to pay the staff to carry our luggage up! They were more than willing to assist.
There is a mold smell in the room. We couldn’t identify the source but if you’re sensitive it wouldn’t be the right fit. The property is beautiful and a great location on the island

Avoid at all costs! A rundown, noisy nightmare.I live right around the corner and stayed here to escape home construction, expecting a restful night. Instead, it was an absolute nightmare.The Room: The inside is completely rundown, filthy, and nasty. It looks fine from the outside, but don't be fooled.The Noise: Upstairs guests dragged chairs across the floor all night, and neighbors talked loudly through paper-thin walls. The noise was so unbearable I literally had to leave and sleep in my car in the parking lot. Management can easily verify this by checking their security cameras—if they even have them.The Layout: You have to haul your own luggage through a ridiculous maze just to find your room.For the high price they charge, this place is an overpriced, unmanaged disaster. Save your money and stay anywhere else. I will be telling everyone I know never to step foot in here!

Overall, the properties was one of the better places that we have stayed in Coronado. A few things that we noticed, but did not break our experience included an odd mattress that felt like there was no springs and I immediately sunk into, we had an accessible shower, which is totally fine, but the water leaks all the way from there out to the kitchenette, the Wi-Fi wasn’t great, but during the middle of the day it worked well. The last thing was the TV was not very responsive to the remotes. There was resort freeze that I was not aware of when booking that came out to about $40 a day.
Overall, though, the location is amazing, the breakfast was different each day and I could tell that I have been freshly prepared. The staff were kind and genuinely helpful.. We come to San Diego every year and we will likely stay here again.

The bed was like sleeping.on a rock.
The king bed was a queen bed.
You have to pay extra for maid service.
The bathroom was tiny. Could barely close the door.
The included breakfast included powered eggs and orange water.
The soap, shampoo and conditioner plainly read Rosemary Geranium, but all were clearly lemon scented.
Having paid a hefty price for the room they should do better.
Resort fee of $40.00. In my opinion an unethical cash grab.

This is a beautiful. AT $350/night, though, it seemed a bit overpriced compared to other hotels we stayed on during this trip (not on Coronado Island, though). The room was clean and functional, the pool area was basic but nice. and the lobby area is really nice. Included breakfast was nice (although not as good as reviews said - don't get your hopes overly high). Overall conclusion was it was nice but overpriced.

If you are okay staying in a motel 6 type of room then this place is for you. The rooms are very outdated and the carpet just looks dirty. The staff here were amazing and the complimentary breakfast was really tasty and the staff member was working extremely hard on both days that we were there and making sure that everything was fully stocked. I would love to stay here again but the room quality is just poor.

Wonderful location and proximity to the beach - BUT...

Went to Coronado with my 2 grandsons so they could play in the ocean and on Coronado beach. Hotel never advised me either before arrival or at check-in that the entire Coronado shoreline and beach is CLOSED due to raw sewage contamination from the Tijuana River flowing out of Mexico. Found this out when we walked down to the beach to go swimming and saw the \"Closed\" signs!

Check in time was 4 PM. Arrived at 3:55 and had to wait until 4:30 for our room to be available.

Air conditioner in 2nd bedroom was blowing hot air, hotel service tried to repair. Unable to fix, but said he would have someone on the roof next day. Brought us a fan, air was still not working when we checked out.

Amenities? - putt putt course - about 10 feet long by 5 feet wide - really?

Would never return to this hotel.
