What a lovely place! We were en route from Newport Beach to San Francisco and stayed here for a night. The front desk staff were superb. They allowed us to check in early and leave our luggage while we explored. They were so chilled and made it clear that their job was to remove all our stresses. And they succeeded.... More

My wife and I choose to host a joint birthday party this month at the SB Inn. Many of our out-of-town guests stayed with us in the hotel for the weekend. We cannot thank the GM and staff at the SB Inn enough for an incredible event and weekend! The property and rooms were immaculate. The service from every member... More

Here's the thing: It's an older beach motel, directly across the street from the beach, with the greatest view you can imagine from every room. That should be enough right there, but when you add in the (unintentional) retro vibe, balcony off every room, and the perfectly quiet sleeping conditions at a VERY reasonable price, you have me. Done. I'm... More

Whie the hotel was obviously older, the rooms were large, beds confortable, front desk extremely helpful and had a free continental breakfast. On Fridays, there also is a free appetizer and cocktail (?) function that I missed. There also are prvileges at a neighboing health club, but I preferred runing on the beach path instead. The hotel rate was lower... More

The Santa Barbara on Cabrillo Blvd is a sweet little hotel, just about 2 miles walk from where State Street (the main drag through town) meets the ocean. The hotel was pleasant and well kept, but it was the service that was the high point of our stay here. The staff is professional and ready to help you in any... More

We stayed one night on a Friday in May 2012. The weather was fantastic, and the view from the hotel is gorgeous, even if you aren't in an "ocean view" room. The upper floors have an open patio on the ocean side, which you can use whenever desired.The bed was extremely comfortable (King Size). We like to use the fitness... More

We had an ocean view room and hearing the waves at night was very nice. Valet parking was reasonable and convenient. Some people just park across the street. The room was large and comfortable. You can walk the mile plus to main street (State St.), but be prepared for the homeless population on the way home. Harmless, but still. Overall,... More

We stayed at the Santa Barbara Inn for one night on April 16th 2012. The Inn is right across the street from the beach and we had a nice view from our room (212). The room was very comfortable with a king bed, desk area and flatscreen tv. There was a small fridge that came in handy for storing drinks.... More

We have never stayed in SB. I found this hotel which looked very nice. All the pics you see on the home page is exactly what you see when you get there. The staff was very nice and recommened a great restaurant for our anniversary. We will definately go back again.
