I booked this location because of all the wonderful reviews on TripAdvisor. We were pleasantly surprised during our stay. The location is perfect, with great shopping and local eateries within walking distance. Even if you dare, you may walk across the street to the pricier Hotel Del Coronado for a cocktail at night. The hotel staff was extremely pleasant and helpful during our stay. The cookies served at turn-down service were delicious. To cap off our stay, a continental breakfast was delivered directly to our room, 5 minutes ahead of schedule. Would definitely stay here again.

This mansion is in a great spot, right in the heart of it. It's convenient location across the street from the del is nice. Our room (104) needs updating, the bathroom needs a facelift yesterday. the room is way too small. The little balcony this room has feels like you are on the rooftop of a building, not a balcony(it's awkward).
The staff is phenomenal, the service is a++. We went as a 2 day stay for our anniversary and when we arrived they had a comPlimentary nice bottle of red wine with glasses for us to enjoy. The continental breakfast has plenty of choices for a continental breakfast. In the afternoon they have wine and appetizers in the main lobby for guests and at turn down they do a nice job too. Overall, i would return but I would stay in a larger room. Hopefully, they update the building soon.

Booked this hotel at the advice of friends who stayed that the inn but recommended we stay in one of the mansion rooms and we're glad we upgraded to those accommodations. While the rest of the hotel looked pleasant enough, the elegance of the mansion added to the relaxation we were hoping to get during the 4 days we were guests. The Sunset room itself was on the smaller side, but adequate for our needs, and the terrace provided an ideal location for breakfast (which was served punctually as per our requested time the evening before) as well as for reading and lounging on the swing. The views, quite limited of the beach and offering much of the roof, were less than optimal but still pleasant enough to spend time outdoors with some degree of privacy. We loved the library and the patio; the pool, like the terrace, was adequate for our needs. Evening turn-down was a nice touch, housekeeping efficient and courteous as was the front desk staff. Excellent location - easy walk to the beach and town.

Stayed at the Glorietta Bay Inn this past weekend. We decided to splurge and reserve a room in the Mansion . . . the Library Room. When we arrived we were greeted and assisted by Georgia who was very gracious and offered a wealth of information. Although the service we experienced at the inn was friendly and attentive, it may be time to replace the mattress in the "Library Room," which I found too soft and worn out. Complimentary breakfast was adequate . . . loved eating outside on the patio. Cookies and milk, and turn down service were a nice touch each evening.

Location of this inn is great. Directly across from The Del, walking distance to the beach, shops and restaurants. We will definitely return again.
