The hotel is praised for its excellent location, friendly and helpful staff, and good breakfast. However, some guests express disappointment with the condition of the rooms, including cleanliness, comfort, and outdated decor. The hotel's fees, such as parking and resort fees, are also a common complaint.

    It was an upsetting stay the room had a horrible smell and felt so humid when we got there . It took forever to have the room cool down. There was also a water dripper broken that was spraying the front door .

    Beautiful boutique hotel just opposite the famous Del Coronado hotel. Service was excellent - we were updgraded to a suite after a long period of travelling which was so appreciated and the suite was spacious, cosy, clean and well kept - even had a 'guest of the day' goody bag on arrival! Pool is calm and relaxing and the breakfast was wonderful, lovely selection of food in an elegant setting. Amenities such as laundry etc very good too. Overall would love to be back as soon as possible! Thank you to the wonderful Glorietta Bay inn team, we only wish our stay could have been longer. everything was perfect!

    The room was a bit outdated, but clean and in a convenient location on Coronado. The hotel has a small parking lot so try to get there at check-in time. The free breakfast made up for the outdated room!

    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 hotel’s location was perfect. We were able to walk to the beach, marina, dining, coffee and shopping while leaving our car parked at the hotel. Room size for 2 was about right. Just a little tight when opening the door with the bed in the way. Probably a bit small for larger families.

    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.

    The $50 daily resort fee add-on is unfair. I stayed for one night and left at 3:30AM for an early flight. So, no complimentary breakfast so I asked if the resort fee could be waived and was told the manager that could approve that was out of town??

    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.

    Planned an overnight stay to celebrate our Anniversary but the experience was a huge disappointment. The room was off the main building by the back parking lot without a view and not very well kept up. Hard to believe they charge >$300 a night which is also frustrating since I used all of my onekeycash points from the last 2 years to pay for the room. Not planning to return any time soon.

    I have never left a review before but I have to say I was so disappointed with my stay, that I felt like I should. The hotel was fine, but given the price and the marketing photos on the website, the reality of the room was way off base. My room was in the back where the buildings are old motel style. My room was dark, musty and in great need of a redo. I was just there one night for business so it wasn’t a big deal but if I was paying out of my pocket for a fun trip, I would have been really disappointed.

    We spent 3 nights at Glorietta Bay Inn to celebrate our 37th wedding anniversary. This was new for us, since we've traditionally stayed at the Hotel Del Coronado when coming to town, but unfortunately their post-renovation pricing has just gone out of what is reasonable for us. We stayed for less than half of that, and were right across the street from the Del so getting there was still something we enjoyed every day we were there. The staff at the Glorietta were very friendly, and the only thing we took down a notch from perfection was comfort because the bathroom was a little on the tight side, size-wise - only one sink, and the toilet/shower room resembled those on cruise ships - but that was the only thing that stopped us from giving that one 5 stars too. We will definitely be back.

    We love Glorietta Bay and have been going for years but I think it is time for a remodel. The room had a slight smell of possibly moldy something. It is getting a little tired looking and the rooms were patched and painted but the patches didnt match the paint and it just is starting to feel a little Holiday Inn feeling. I think it is time to step up the game!

    The breakfast that comes with your stay is very basic. The room was in a huge disappointment, it is very old and dated . The carpet was worn and had black stains on it. I honestly did not feel comfortable in that room. The pool we never used we actually went across the street to the Del Coronado and got day passes to use their pool. I ended up leaving early and spending the weekend at the hotel Del Coronado .

    Was surprised by the "resort fee" that was buried in the fine print. If you have to pay the fee but don't get anything extra, then it is just part of the room rate, and it is sneaky to add this fee in the fine print. Rooms are really old and look like old Super 8 rooms. The pictures of the lobby (which was very nice and clean) are nothing like the rooms, which are cheap and old. The rooms are more like a "motel" and certainly not the type of room you would expect to have a "resort fee." They should have more accurate pictures of the rooms and be honest about their rates by not having a sneaky resort fee.
