Following our dramatic renovation, the Santa Barbara Inn is once again welcoming guests to our oceanfront boutique hotel in Santa Barbara. While positive reviews and articles are nice, we take even greater pride in what past guests have to say about their visit with us. If you are considering a stay at the Santa Barbara Inn, please browse the hotel reviews below for a sense of the experience that awaits.

5/5

It's a beautiful, classic hotel with upgrades that make it modern and clean.  We didn't go to the pool or jacuzzi but I love that there's that option.  Everyone is very kind and hospitable.  Even the valet team was helpful and supportive.  Location is perfect if you want to be close to state street, but far enought that it's calm and clean.  Partial ocean view was perfect.

The Santa Barbara Inn was an absolute treat! The decor was so charming, the bedding was super comfortable, the bathroom was well appointed, and the view! We ate both breakfast and lunch in the restaurant on the patio, and every bite was scrumptious! Thank you for a perfect stay!
