The legendary Hotel del Coronado is restoring and revitalizing the hotel’s historic Victorian building with a more than $160 million investment, marking the final phase of Blackstone Real Estate’s more than $550 million development plan to preserve and enhance the National Historic Landmark property for the enjoyment of guests, visitors and the community alike. The restoration encompassed event spaces including the iconic Crown Room, which are now complete, as well as all guestrooms in The Victorian, with rooms available beginning February, 2025.
"We are thrilled to embark on this exciting and final journey of Blackstone’s investment in this one-of-a-kind resort," said J. Peter Lynn, Managing Director of Hotel Del Coronado. "The Victorian building holds a special place in the hearts of our guests, and we are dedicated to preserving its historical significance while elevating the bespoke guest experience to new heights.” Rob Harper, Head of Real Estate Asset Management, Americas at Blackstone added, “Since our more than $550 million investment plan began in 2018, we have worked diligently to preserve The Del as a National Historic Landmark while cementing the property’s status as an iconic and timeless destination for generations to come.
