Seven years into the half-billion-dollar renovation of the Hotel Del Coronado, the oceanfront resort is about to unveil the final and perhaps most challenging chapter yet — the restoration of its 137-year-old Victorian building, a project so ambitious it required shutting down every one of the 367 guestrooms for over a year.
While a portion of the red-roofed icon already had been refurbished a few years earlier as part of the multi-phased project — most notably the lobby and front porch entrance — the guestrooms, outdoor courtyard and wood-paneled meeting venues had remained untouched, until now.
