Hotel del Coronado

The Victorian-era seaside Hotel del Coronado recently had its most extensive renovation ever. This $160 million project, the largest restoration project in the history of San Diego County, has returned the National Historic Landmark to its historic grandeur.

Following the award-winning renovation of the hotel’s front entrance and lobby in 2021, this sweeping project brought new life to 404 guest rooms, meeting rooms, central courtyard, and facades. Every inch of the hotel’s 415,000 square feet was renovated, with upgrades to structural, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and fire systems.

On the exterior, non-historic modifications were removed and hundreds of replica wood windows were installed. The building’s historic color palette was restored. The majestic wood-clad Crown and Coronet rooms were fully restored. The central courtyard now features a fountain recreating the lost original. Following this dramatic renovation, the Hotel del Coronado now more closely reflects its original 1888 charm than at any point in the past century.
