You can't beat this location. Although the hotel is not the most up to date or modern, it has a great location with friendly staff. The staff even mailed me my ring that I had forgotten in the room. State street offers great shopping, bars, and fun restaurants or cafes. Staying at this hotel made it so much easier to... More

From the moment that the attendant in the parking lot welcomed me to Hotel Santa Barbara to the thank you Gold Coin & chocolate on the check out, my stay in at the HSB couldn't have been more enjoyable. Friendliness and service abounds in a location that puts you in the heart beat of SB. The rooms are comfortable, clean... More

We'd never been to Santa Barbara before, so I figured we could stay along the beach with the views, or we could stay close to the cafe's and restaurants. We chose the latter, which is why we selected The Hotel Santa Barbara which is right on State Street, which is the main drag of Santa Barbara. We were so glad... More

Extremely friendly service!!! Very nice welcome gift. Nice continental breakfast. Parking - you have to pay...however, nothing when you compare the facilities that hotel offers... oh, by the way, no gym room!!!

I spent two nights (Fri & Sat) at the Hotel Santa Barbara and it was a perfect stay. The room was small but very comfortable, clean and well-appointed. The staff (from the parking attendant to the front desk staff) were courteous, helpful and enthusiastic. I got great restaurant recommendations from the staff. The continental breakfast in the morning (included in... More

The best thing about this hotel is that it is on State Street steps from shopping and restaurants. It's also less than 1 mile from the beach, which can be easily walked. The elevator was out the weekend of our visit, and the hotel staff were trying to move people to the second (and more convenient floor) if they wished.... More

I have had a great stay at this hotel so far. I've got one day left and I will recommend it to friends when they come visit. It's out of my price range generally and my company paid for it so of course it's great. Beside the fact that I didn't pay for the stay i can still objectively say... More

Stayed in #400, a really clean, sunny, and spacious room with two comfortable queen beds, and windows on the side of the building facing State Street ( though building is indented, so room not noisy). The bathroom was huge, probably remodeled about 20 years ago, but in good condition. Rooms have French Provencal theme bedspreads - not the white covered... More

Hotel Santa Barbara occupies a distinguished position off of State Street and is in convenient walking distance to all of the local bars, restauraunts and shopping. My girlfriend and I spent a very enjoyable weekend here a couple of weeks ago! The staff were very friendly and it was great to be able to not worry about parking our car... More
