Hotel near East Beach,Santa Barbara
Enjoy a beautiful oceanside location at our cozy Santa Barbara hotel. Situated just steps from scenic East Beach and the Pacific Ocean. We are just a short walk or drive from exciting local attractions including Stearns Wharf. A waterfront shopping and dining promenade. See exotic animals at the Santa Barbara Zoo or enjoy a concert under the stars at the Santa Barbara Bowl. Sample award winning varietals along the Urban Wine Trail or cruise to the beautiful Channel Islands National Park for infinite outdoor activities. From hiking and biking to kayaking and snorkeling.

"Hotel was very clean, and I have high standards! Staff was friendly and helpful. As another reviewer stated, this is not a luxury hotel, but it did provide very comfortable accommodations in a wonderful location near the beach in Santa Barbara. It even provided a covered parking spot for my car!"

Was here for 2 nights with my partner, and first time staying at a bnb. Was pleasantly surprised by how clean and conveniently located it was. It’s a short walk from state street, where all the good restaurants and retail shops are. The breakfast was delicious and cooked with soul. The cookies were also a lovely treat. Highly recommend for a homey and enjoyable experience!

The room was clean, the location was great, and the staff was friendly. The location was fantastic, within walking distance to the beach and the convenience store. Free parking was also excellent! Our stay was fully booked, so it was very quiet at night.

Best Western Plus Santa Barbara

The hotel itself is very different in the way it blends in with the neighborhood, pretty nice in style and not what I was expecting for a Best Western. The hotel isn’t too far from the city center but also not close enough (which is why I gave a 4), but it is very very nice. I also gave a 4 for amenities only because I wasn’t able to use them as it was less than 24 hour stay, and I wanted to experience the city more. Overall, I did like it, comfortable bed and pillows and I believe I could have slept much longer if I didn’t have an 11am check out 🤦🏽♂️🤣. But overall I was satisfied and the staff both office and cleaning were very kind and helpful. ❤️ Santa Barbara is a very beautiful city and BW gave the right price for my stay. 👍🏽

Very good, staying in the United States, the first time there was a waiter to help carry the luggage, breakfast, is cold food, end at ten o'clock on time. The surrounding environment is very good, we stayed for two nights, the hotel is quiet and clean, good.

【よかった点】 立地が最強です! サンタバーバラ駅からこちらのホテルが見えるほど近いです。駅から徒歩2分ほどで到着します。 ・ホテルの共用部に電子レンジや飲み物などが設置されており、無料でパンも提供されています。パンはとても美味しかったです。 ・無料でお酒が一杯飲めます。ホテルの方が作ってくれます。 ・ホテルもとてもおしゃれです!隅々まで凝らしてあるので、ホテルの内部にも目を向けてみると楽しいです。 【いまいちな点】 ・お風呂 トイレとお風呂が近すぎ、かつ狭いです。かなり使いにくいので、要注意です。

We would book this accommodation again if we were to travel to Santa Barbara again. There are many restaurants, a great bookstore (Chaucer's) and a large supermarket (Gelson's) directly across from the accommodation. The pool is not heated, which is really not necessary in the summer. In the morning, coffee and hot water for tea etc. is available at the reception.

Good and clean hotel. Rooms look newly renovated and were comfortable and spacious even when we had 2 big luggages. We had a car so going around the city wasn't difficult for us and the location was decent. Waffle machine at breakfast was a nice and different addition which we enjoyed. Would recommend

Room facilities are simple and like this style. There are great pools and bars in the public area. The hotel is located in the center of Barbara and is very convenient to walk to the main street. You need to drive to the beach and charge $30 a day for parking.

Pretty good! This price is afraid of not being clean The result was not expected to be super clean 😆 CP value is very high, although cheap, but completely worth the price Hot water comes slower but the water pressure is enough
