Love this place! The rooms are large and comfy, although a little tired, definitely not enough to put me off giving this a raving review.

Santa Barbara was absolutely beautiful!!! It was really lush and green there! The wildflowers were blooming everywhere! The mountains and hills were super lush and green and very beautiful! The Botanical Gardens are incredible and are filled with poppies and wildflowers! The Mission, Courthouse, State Street, Stearns Wharf, and Alice Peck Park are all amazing places to visit! The weather was a perfect 73 degrees for most of my trip, until the last day. The people were all very nice and pleasant to deal with. Brophy's, at the Harbor has the best fish and chips that I have ever had!! There were some whales right off of the Harbor that I was privileged to see! There was also an awesome feeding frenzy that brought in hundreds of pelicans and cormorants to dive into the water at the same time!! It was phenomenal to watch. People who have lived in Santa Barbara all of their lives have never seen anything like it!!! It was an absolutely amazing trip!

We visited in February when unknown to us was the film festival, the weather was perfect, town seemed quiet even with film festival which was a bonus, still able to grab tickets. Plenty of restaurants to choose from, lots with outdoor eating with patio heaters. We enjoyed the SB Whale watching trip we did, small exclusive boat made us feel VIPs and saw plenty of humpback whales. Easy to walk around the town, but also easy to drive and explore neighbouring Montecito

For seafood, Lure is amazing!!! Chad's and Cajun Kitchen are great breakfast spots.
If you are there on Sunday, see the Art/Craft Market at the Beach. Lots of amazing stuff and all the vendors are so friendly.
Also, a huge recommendation to Olive Hill Farms in Los Olivos. Great place for oils and vinegars.

Loved the beautiful landscaping and architecture everywhere.
Loved the beautiful landscaping and architecture everywhere. Clean city and easy to navigate while driving but MapQuest misguided me numerous times. Excellent ethnic food restaurants. Lots of choices. I’m recommending “Meet Up” Chinese, “Your Place” Thai and “Masala Spice” Indian foods. Meet Up was first place I’ve ever been served by a robot!!!! Very cool!

Santa Barbara has a lot to offer from beaches to hiking...
Santa Barbara has a lot to offer from beaches to hiking mountain biking to sailing and other outdoor adventures. I would have liked to have more time to explore. Relax at the rose gardens at the mission, hike more, beach sunsets and dinner downtown. Getting around is easy. Biking is fun! I would avoid the traffic in the funk zone on Friday night. Park in a paid lot and walk in is what I recommend. Also check out the Farmer’s market downtown on Tuesday nights and Saturday mornings. Wishing everyone a great time!
The hotel is well maintained. It is in an excellent location. It is a dog friendly hotel which was an awesome surprise. Lots of cute pooches running around. While we were there we didn't see a single dog act up. Staff are super responsive and relaxed. It seems the owners are not over working and understaffing which I appreciate. The location is prime. Like a mathematician chose the optimal walking distance to all Santa Barbara has to offer. The pool area was clean, well maintained, and relaxing.
Newly built little hotel on the beachfront of Santa Barbara, part of a larger corporate hotel chain. Everything as expected. Very spacious, clean and fully equipped rooms, thoroughly soundproof. Corporate style ambience, everything in the room brand new. Hotel built in tasteful Mexican style architecture with attention to detail. Excellent service. Within walking distance of Santa Barbara main attractions.
Lovely hotel in all respects: Convivo, the restaurant in the hotel (where we sat outside and enjoyed views of the beach) is fabulous; all staff at hotel and in restaurant were terrific; room was spacious and comfortable and we had a nice water view from our balcony; very well located, right in between downtown Santa Barbara and Montecito. All in all, a great stay and we would definitely return!
started well with an early check in and a great welcome at the front desk.
room was lovely, clean and comfortable.
more towels were provided on request. great location near the beach and downtown SB.
breakfast was nice too, grab and go but offering good coffee and a toasted bagel.
excellent parking lot with LOADS of space!
As we arrived Peter welcomed us.
This guy is a legend - one of the funniest and kindest people i met in the US. No Joke, a 10/10!
We stayed one night and he uprgradet us to a room with whirlpool.
The Hotel is very near to the centre (State St.) - maybe 10min walking.
A nice hotel to stay in for visiting Santa Barbara.
Everything! The hotel was located in the best part of Santa Barbara, Montecito. Safe, clean, quiet and unpretentious, it is what I look for in a hotel. The front desk staff was very friendly and inviting and the room was huge with 2 comfortable queen sized beds. I also enjoyed the free parking
The hotel was minutes away from downtown Santa Barbara and also a short drive to Carpinteria. There is a Starbucks and IHOP across the street. The front desk staff were super friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again.
Location by marina is superb. Restaurants just around corner. Rooms are very comfortable and customer service was excellent (special mention to John). For the area reasonable price, Santa Barbara is never going to be cheap.
The architecture of the hotel fits nicely into the post colonial architecture of Santa Barbara. The rooms are standard, but there’s nothing to complain about them. the staff is friendly. The lobby facilities are good.
The rooms were clean and breakfast was good. All service folks we came in contact with were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was close enough to downtown Santa Barbara, which is where we spent most of our time.
The cozy hotel is located in a convenient location near the beach, but a little further from the center. After 11 pm they lock the door to the building, so it's safe. The staff are friendly and pleasant.
Front desk chap on check in was really helpful sharing great hints that made our Santa Barbara stay super easy. A typical big Hotel Room that you expect in the USA which was great after being in the UK.
The rooms are huge and comfortable. The location was convenient between Goleta and downtown Santa Barbara. The lobby, the restaurant and outdoor area are super cute. And the staff was super friendly!
The room was clean with a TV with many programs. Santa Barbara is lovely place and this hotel is great place to stay. The staff was very nice and helpful.
