Santa Barbara feels like a bit of paradise right here on earth. Beautiful beaches, good restaurants, interesting history, and friendly folks. The local pool (Los Banos Del Mar) is really top notch! Walkable city.

We enjoyed Santa Barbara as usual.

We enjoyed Santa Barbara as usual. We have been coming there once a year for about 10 years. We enjoyed the Trolley Tour, although we have had better guides. The one we had seemed to roll through all the sights where, during previous visits, we were able to get better photos, and saw more.

Santa Barbara is and has been a fun location to vacation in. The costs are high but there are extensive options for hotels and restaurants of all sorts. The scenery and beaches are top notch. A fun family area as well as a large variety of adult offerings.

Great place to visit.

Great place to visit. Lots to see and do within walking distance, plenty of bike rentals for further trips, entertainment for all ages. The Marine Center and MOXI were fun for kids and adults alike. McConnells Ice Cream is a great treat.

What an absolute gem of a hotel - perfect positioned for both the beach and for enjoying State Street, the hub of Santa Barbara. Check in was easy and Ben, who was on the desk went over and above explaining the hotel and especially the area of SB. The room was really clean, VERY comfortable and well appointed - with GREAT coffee too. Free bike hire was an added bonus, as was the pool area, the fire pit - to be honest it was perfect!

For reasons out of our control we checked in very late and the front desk was so very accommodating, which is just what we needed at the end of the travelling day. The room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. We loved the location and quietness of the neighborhood. We also had breakfast in the restaurant and both the food and service were excellent. When we visit Santa Barbara again, we will definitely book this hotel.

Exceeded expectations. Great location for downtown Santa Barbara with parking. Short walk to shops, cafes, beach and pier. Immaculately presented room with great facilities. Spotlessly clean. Aircon temperature perfect, quiet, high ceilings. Very comfortable. Stayed in six different accommodations in California during my trip and this was by far the most comfortable.

Perfect hotel for our visit to Santa Barbara. Right on the beach and within easy walking distance to loads of food and drink places, especially the funk zone. We loved chilling out by the fire pits in the evenings. The rooms and decor are just lovely!
