Popular Santa Barbara 4-star Hotels

The resort was beautiful, the room was comfortable and clean. We brought our golden retriever and it was a very pleasant stay for him as well. The location is close enough to the shops and restaurants of State St. but far enough away to be peaceful and not too crowded. My only complaint is the food. We ate at all of the different restaurants and each time we were so disappointed by the quality of the food and the prices were astronomical. I don't mind paying a lot for good food, but this food was worse than what I make at home and I am not a good cook! My daughter ordered the lobster roll at The Set and it was terrible. $30 down the drain. We had breakfast at The Roundhouse and the avocado toast was beyond bland. Then we tried lunch at the Terraza del Mar - I got a chicken Cesar salad and my daughter got a poke bowl. The salad was cole slaw mix and chicken, that was it. Her poke bowl didn't have the rice that it was supposed to have and was horrible, she couldn't have more than a couple bites. I would stay at the resort again, but would never eat at any of their restaurants again. Better to Doordash or eat off property.

When the only thing my very picky husband can find to complain about is a missing second soap bar in the bathroom, you know you have a winner! We had stayed at this property many years ago and love the way the current owners have redone the interiors. Both our bedroom and bathroom were lovely and excellent sized. We had a large covered balcony overlooking the park and the ocean. Yes, there is noise from both Millais and Cabrillo streets, but the room was virtually soundproof with the sliding doors closed. The pool was clean and uncrowned and the ocean was right across the street. Staff was excellent!

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are spacious and clean. Great location across the street from the beach plus you can walk along a nice footpath in either direction and enjoy the scenery and ocean views. An added plus, the hotel is pet friendly.

This is one of the best boutique hotel I ever stayed at! Everyone working there is beyond friendly, spontaneous, yet professional. It’s walking distance from main attractions of city of Santa Barbara, but quiet. Design of the rooms is stylish, spacious and comfortable. The bartender makes great cocktails. Front desk is beyond friendly.i

We stayed in room 220. It was a family King. It was spacious and clean. We had 2 bathrooms which was cool. We each had our own bathroom. The bathrooms are small but they have everything you need. The room was pretty quiet. You could hear people only if they stood outside the door to talk which happened once during our 2 day trip. We enjoyed some drinks and appetizers at Coast and Olive ( the hotel restaurant). We also enjoyed walking to breakfast at Jeannine’s. We walked to Ca’Dario for dinner . The place is great and super friendly staff. We loved the hotel. We’ll be back.

The front desk is very strict. You must have a visa card to stay. At the restaurant at the door, I bought breakfast with breakfast. It used to mean breakfast deducted with $50. You can order it yourself. The restaurant is delicious The highlight is the pool, you will love the experience here....a large piece at hand. The pool is warm water. The room is classic old money style Health: OK Facilities: Classic Environment: City Centre Service: Soso
