The Spotlight on Cherokee Lodge

Charming Coronado Stay Just Minutes from San Diego's Live Music Scene

Located in the heart of peaceful Coronado, Cherokee Lodge is a cozy, classic-style lodge offering a quiet retreat just across the bay from downtown San Diego. With its welcoming atmosphere, homey rooms, and thoughtful amenities like free WiFi, air conditioning, and a daily continental breakfast, this lodge gives off a laid-back vibe that’s perfect for winding down after a night of live music.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans appreciate Cherokee Lodge’s balance of close proximity to downtown San Diego venues and its quiet, residential setting in Coronado. It’s just a short drive or ferry ride to top spots like the San Diego Convention Center and Gaslamp Quarter clubs—and even better, you can retreat to a calm, comfortable room when the amps shut off. With check-in starting at 3:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM, there’s enough flexibility to work around show schedules. Street parking is simple, and the area is walkable and safe, even late at night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a chill place to crash after a high-energy show
  • Solo travelers seeing a favorite artist and wanting a peaceful spot to rest
  • Couples planning a romantic concert weekend getaway
  • Fans needing a quiet recovery space post-concert
  • Budget-conscious concert-goers wanting good value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

While Cherokee Lodge doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, guests love the complimentary breakfast featuring fresh pastries, bagels, fruit, and yogurt—perfect after a late night out. Plus, being in Coronado means you’re within easy walking distance to several charming cafes, casual eateries, and late-night bites. Room service isn't available, but many nearby spots offer takeout for a cozy evening in.

Nightlife Options

Though the lodge itself doesn’t host live music, you’re just a quick ride from the Gaslamp Quarter, home to some of San Diego’s most popular music venues, bars, and clubs. Prefer to keep things mellow? There are plenty of local wine bars and quiet beachside lounges nearby to unwind with a drink.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise Cherokee Lodge for its cleanliness, character, and welcoming staff. Reviewers love the quiet neighborhood atmosphere and find it a refreshing contrast to the downtown bustle. The charming decor and comfortable beds also get frequent shout-outs.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the property is a bit older and lacks modern hotel extras like elevators or 24-hour staff. There's no on-site restaurant or bar, and soundproofing between rooms could be improved—but most agree the charm and location make up for it.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting a peaceful, affordable stay close to San Diego's music hotspots, Cherokee Lodge hits all the right notes.

Not worth it unfortunately

Liked: Location was nice.
Disliked: Hated the bathroom in the hallway for both rooms , was v ery inconvenient for both rooms. Felt over priced for the inconvenience. Poor choices daily for a so-called free breakfast. Would not stay again. Light coming in windows all night. And bright hallways. Just a difficult setup .

Beautiful location, nice, clean and...

Liked: It's a perfect place for a brief stay. Staff is super nice, simple and nutritious breakfast is available, it's quiet and clean. The room is small but rather cozy. We're not big fans of noisy air conditioners but the possibility to open the windows and get the fresh evening air was nice.
Disliked: Nothing! :) Everything was nice and as expected.

The bathroom situation was not...

Liked: The location is good. The property was clean.
Disliked: We booked a room with 2 beds but there was no bathroom in the room. The tiny bathroom was outside the room on the hallway. Each time we go to the bathroom, we have to bring our key to unlock and lock the door for both our bedroom and bathroom. It was very bad special at the nighttime when we needed to use the bathroom. After coming out the shower, we met the other guests on the hallway. It was just so inconvenient and uncomfortable. We paid over $230/night. We deserved a bathroom in the room not outside. Moreover, there is no parking.
