HERE’S WHAT OUR GUESTS HAVE TO SAY.
Very nice cozy place, not so far from San Diego, well connected by bus route. Easy access to grocery and dining options and close to Coronado beach. Only felt the comforters weren't too great for the cold in the room, but this could be just an unexpected cold weather. Highly recommend staying here than expensive San Deigo hotels. No complimentary breakfast, but there is a Bistro though in the hotel. But check in before 11PM!! Bad wifi though.

Very nice place to stay in Coronado. Pretty room doors facing a courtysrd style parking lot. Rooms comfortable but toilet was too close to the shower for someone with long legs, in our room. Small refreshing looking pool, bikes and sand toys available. Front desk personnel were wonderful. Fresh cookies in the lobby and adjoining bistro was -yum!

I can't say enough about this place! Charming, clean, great value, beds were comfortable, loved the big shower with plenty of pressure, everyone was great and made sure we had a wonderful time! They have the best cookies in the afternoon for their guests along with coffee and hot chocolate. Location! We parked the car and walked, rode bikes that the hotel provided and jumped on the free bus to longer locations...it was a great place to stay and definitely will be coming back.

We love to this place. Have stayed here 3 times now and everything is always so easy, clean, and the staff is really stellar. The location is perfect because it's not too long a walk to all the restaurants and shops and also a quick walk to the ferry which we love to take into town. Someone is really managing this place and this staff in a way that makes a stay here beyond pleasant.

I really can’t say enough about this place! Not one detail is spared. they offer filtered water to fill up your water bottles, a welcome gift, free bike and beach rentals! They make you feel like family! Keith is awesome along with the 2 gals that work there too(didn’t catch their names). The housekeeping staff is so friendly and accommodating. We’ve stayed and big name hotels and nothing compares to this place and how they treat you! Thank you for the memories!Cruz Family❤️

This is a very cute stay in a great location. Walking distance to everything in Coronado. The bed was very comfy, and I appreciated the filtered water in the lobby. The desk staff were all pleasant and kind. The walls of the rooms are very thin, we could easily hear the conversations of our next door and above neighbors, and the people upstairs walking around. I would look elsewhere if you are trying to sleep in. I wish there was a way to signal that we weren't ready for housekeeping, the housekeeping staff was persistent in knocking on our door fairly early in the day, like 9:30 or 10, when we typically weren't ready for that until noon or so. Also personal pet peeve: housekeeping should never touch my toothbrush please. Overall good value for the money, especially if you are looking to get up and spend most of your day in Coronado.

I love this quaint place. They even gave us doggy gift bags and they have the best, most flavorful coffee. The bed was super comfortable and it is extremely clean. It is a 10 min walk to the beach. They have public tennis courts right behind it and there is a park very close by. I would definitely stay here again.

This place is a gem. I stayed here due to a work emergency. The day was rough and I needed a place to stay. Called like three places and all they had were smoking rooms. From the first initial phone call the voice in the other side was understanding of the situation since I had to walk there from sharp Coronado hospital. The place gave me a 90’s Melrose place vibe. Rooms were clean and neatly organized. Complementary coffee and brownies were awesome. The little restaurant next to it had awesome food. The salmon dinner was so good and breakfast was delicious. If I ever stay in San Diego I’ll stay here. Y’all who live here are truly living in a paradise destination.

This was a really nice place to stay at. Its not super fancy or anything but its very personable. There are some elderly people who like to stay here so if you have kids you might get a complaint if they are load after 7pm even though the pool doesn't close till 10pm. Other than that it was a great place.

This hotel is a little piece of heaven at an affordable price! We found the staff very hospitable and the services top-notch. Our room was calming and comfortable with a very nice shower. You can walk from the hotel over the main road through an air-conditioned overpass. Super convenient! The hotel is ideal for a long stay or short stay, such as transients.

My husband and I have stayed here twice, both times we have received exceptional customer service and fair prices. The people working behind the desk are very nice and welcoming. The first time we stayed we arrived with a dog and they gave us a goodie bag for our fur baby with treats and poop bags which we weren’t expecting. We were super happy to find a dog friendly place that was so welcoming. The rooms are very cozy and nicely up kept and clean definitely worth what we paid. When we asked about late check out they offered to let us stay till one and then called us in our room and offered to let us stay till three since no one else had booked the room for that night. Over all I would 100% recommended this hotel wether you have dogs or not. My husband and I will definitely be returning.

My mom and I had a great overnight stay at Crown City Inn. The property is very lovely and peaceful, and the room was clean and felt nice and cozy. Since free parking and use of their bicycles are included in the price of the room, it's probably one of the best deals you're going to find! Excellent location within walking distance to many restaurants, shopping, and the beach. Customer service was outstanding and they went above and beyond to accommodate us in every way. Breakfast at the Bistro was delicious! We look forward to staying here next time we're in Coronado!

We had a great time celebrating my husbands birthday in Coronado! The Crown City Inn is a gem! Our room was very clean and comfortable, the bathroom was tastefully remodeled. We had a small refrigerator, microwave and coffee pot. The Crown City Bistro serves delicious food in a relaxing, comfortable atmosphere at reasonable prices. The housekeeping staff kept the place immaculate and the office staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the complimentary cookies and coffee every afternoon. We especially enjoyed riding the beach cruisers provided by the Hotel free of charge. Every bicycle has a basket and a lock. We rode around the island many times and took the bikes on the ferry into San Diego. The location of the hotel is terrific, you can walk to the beach, restaurants, coffee houses and grocery stores. We are already planning a return trip!

These guys have got it together. The rooms are large and quiet, safe, clean and comfortable. The beach and San Diego bay are a short walk away. Its a lovely location. The employees are happy, fantastic folks. There are beach chairs and bicycles you can borrow. If San Diego is your destination, THIS IS THE PLACE. You wont be disappointed.

Lovely place. We stayed 3 days for our anniversary on Memorial weekend with our 3 year old and everything was excellent. Clean, safe and very accommodating. We love Coronado and this cozy place delivered. It was our home base as we did excursions to Coronado beach, Balboa park museums, and Hornblower brunch cruises. Its was such a great weekend. Would definitely reccomend this spot. A+. Housekeeping was prompt and courteous and even decorated our 3 year olds travel cot with her toys and bedding. Great job ladies. The lady at the front desk even provided a gift bag of goodies for our toddler. Great experience! We'll be back most definitely. The bistro closed early during our stay but I've heard great things. We'll be sure to try it next time. Overall...super satisfied!

At first glance the property is beautiful, small and peaceful. We were greeted by a very friendly woman at the front desk. The little courtyard is gorgeous. The room is quaint and adorable. The room was very clean upon entering and provided all the vacation essentials: fridge, coffee pot, hair dryer, etc. The bistro next door has a wonderful, friendly staff with delicious food and excellent service.

Ate bunch here. Our group of five was seated within an hour in a rainy day (outside seating was closed). Service was great with plenty of coffee. Food: Churro Banana waffle was delicious - unique and not overly sweet. Huevos Rancheros was good - slightly spicy but not exactly memorable. If on Coronado and looking for brunch would return.

best hotel i have ever stayed at. has the old fashioned feel snd style. while the wifi did not work for me (not a big issue). the thing i loved the most is this. i was originally going to bring my 2 dogs with me. at the last minute i found a good babysitter but forgot to inform Crown City Inn. we check into our room and there is a dog bowl on a mat for my babies food and water. this was the most thoughtful thing i have ever seen. i have traveled with my babies many times and no hotel ever did this. highly recommend this hotel.

We discovered the Crown City Inn while walking. Although the No Vacancy sign eas up on the entry door, we thought we'd check on future availability. We were surprised to find they had rooms available the next night and several days in the future. After being shown one of the rooms by the helpful staff, we booked a room for 3 nights. The room was clean, tidy and moderately decorated. The bath had everything we needed. The huge glass shower looked recently added, but fit nicely into the decor. The air conditioning worked well, as did the flat screen TV and wifi. No signal issues. The ice machine was in the laundry room with 2 coin-op washers & 2 dryers. (The washers & dryers are shared with housekeeping for towels & sheets, however the staff person doing the laundry was helping in unloading washers and/or dryers to make room for our laundry items as needed. $0.75 per washer and per dryer. Soap available at front desk for $0.50/box. Washer & dryer run for 45 minutes each.) A small, pleasant salt water pool is nice for a dip or sunning. Next to the Inn is the Crown City Bistro for bkfst, lunch & dinner. Breakfast is very popular & lines form for the special plates. Attentive and friendly staff make this a great place to eat, or just have coffee & people watch on the outside patio. We will be back for both the Inn and Bistro!

Stayed here with my sister for a few days. Everything was better than expected. I had found this place because it was within our price range. (Ie. Cheaper than quite a few other places.) Pleasantly surprised by how updated the bathroom was. Plenty of parking in the alley behind. The front desk clerk was very friendly.Was able to walk to each side of the island with no issue. Overall, I would definitely stay there again.

4th of July was our fourth time staying at Crown City Inn and it is hard to go anywhere else. The hotel staff is so nice, the location being close to the park is great for kids and special events, the free bikes are a huge plus as is the free parking. The hotel restaurant is very popular and the lobby puts out the most delicious free cookies each afternoon. With all this at a great price the value is to good to pass up. Cant wait for our next visit.

Cozy room with a nice walk in shower. It had nice amenities and nice temperature control. The bed was comfortable and they provided really good cookies in the afternoon. Small pool with no jacuzzi. They provided free bike rentals and have a semi nice restaurant next door. Pretty close to the stores and shops. Would recommend.
