This wasn't exactly what I had in mind when I think of an Inn or Bed and Breakfast. I kind of expected something more intimate, but in any event, this was still a decent hotel. The rooms are clean and nice, there's a nice pool and whirpool and our room faced the courtyard. They also offer a free continental breakfast... More

We stayed 4 nights during a 3 week trip around USA and were looking forward to a relaxing stay in Santa Barbara after visiting 3 cities and a busy schedule. This hotel fitted the bill perfectly - old fashioned, comfortable, friendly with great rooms and a lovely pool and spa. The breakfasts were great and it was lovely to get... More

The Inn by the Harbor was our third hotel on the way down to LA. We were staying for two nights, arriving at about 7pm. Check in was really good. Frank (I hope I remember his name correctly) was on hand explaining the hotel facilities and really making us feel welcome. Inn by the Harbor is what I would always... More

Stayed here for a long weekend while attending a wedding. This might be the perfect location if you're looking for an affordable, adorable location. Rooms were simple but nice, the pool is very cute, clean and perfect. Location is ideal, close to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Staying at a hotel on the beach would run you at least $300...

We stayed here at the end of March as part of a 2 week trip through coastal California. The Inn by the Harbor was easily my favourite hotel of the whole trip.

We stayed here two nights and found Jose on the front desk very friendly and helpful. Loads of shops,bars and places to eat within 10mins walk and free wine,cheese, milk and cookies were a nice touch too. More

Hotel rooms satisfactory and quiet. Pool, bar with continental breakfast, cheese and wine 4.30-6.30 and milk and cookies 6.30. First night went down into reception to see what the cheese and wine involved and met many lovely people and wine and cheese and biscuits flowed freely until 6.30. Very social atmosphere. We only wished we could have stayed longer than... More

We had a hard time deciding where to stay in Santa Barbara, it was our first trip and we wanted nice, easy but not crazy expensive. The Inn by the Harbor was perfect. I asked for their more quiet room and they delivered. The lovely hot tub is great. We are in our mid to upper 30s and were definitely... More
