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.Guest review byMAGGIETEXTUnited States - 10.0
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.Guest review byAnonymous - 10.0

- From $147.06 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 7.4Good - What previous guests thought, 1,998 reviewsI liked this hotel. The city of Santa Barbara is such a delight and this hotel was in a central location on State Street, around 5-10 mins walk from the main drag. It’s not a cheap city to stay in and I was impressed with the value of this place. Friendly staff and a clean room with all that you’d need.Guest review byMeilirUnited Kingdom
