Since 1888, the legendary Hotel del Coronado has welcomed visitors from around the world who come to admire its famous red roof and fairytale turrets and spires. This National Historic Landmark hotel has witnessed 10 presidential visits starting with Benjamin Harrison’s visit in 1891. The location is ideal, situated across the bay from downtown San Diego on beautiful Coronado Island which boasts miles of beaches and a village main street filled with cafes, galleries and shopping.

2013 marks the Hotel Del's 125th anniversary. December at the Del is not to be missed as the celebration continues including the lighting of an historic Norfolk pine tree, the first electrically lit outdoor Christmas tree in America, which will be lit once again to commemorate its inaugural lighting in 1904.
