Hotel del Coronado, Curio Collection by Hilton

Hotel del Coronado, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"I would highly recommend a stay at Hotel del Coronado for the following reasons: *From the moment I arrived, the staff was pleasant and helpful. When my family needed more towels, a staff member arrived within 5-10 min. *The rooms including the bathrooms were clean. I think the area where I stayed was renovated. *The breakfast on the veranda was my favorite part. The breakfast buffet was absolutely delicious, especially the bread pudding. The waiters were courteous each morning, The veranda is located in front of the ocean. With the ocean view and soft music playing in the background, breakfast was a delight. When I made my reservations via Expedia, I sought the option in which the breakfast would be included in my package. I'm glad that I selected that option--the breakfast buffet could be expensive. Overall, I was very pleased with my stay at Hotel del Coronado."
