We spent one night in Santa Barbara at the West Beach Inn and found it to more than meet our needs. The room was not luxurious, however it was spacious, comfortable and clean, the bed was also comfortable. The wifi in the room worked well and the breakfast was simple but adequate, being a selection of fruit, toast, cereals, pastries... More

Just arrived at the hotel, it's spotlessly clean, we were offered free wine and cheese reception, chocolates in our room, coffee etc. Just a lovely place. I can't see any negative anyone could leave this hotel. Thanks guys.

We needed somewhere to stay in Santa Barbara and after a quick look on trip advisor, we decided to book West Beach Inn - I wasn't really expecting much to be honest; I thought it would be a typical motel. I couldn't have been more mistaken though. The lobby area was clean and the check in was fast. We were... More

Stayed here one night en route from SF to LA. Great location, close to beach and wharf. Expected a motel but found it to be much nicer, great pool area and grounds. Would definitely stay here again. Thoroughly recommend the Italian restaurant next door.

We stayed 5 nights in a nice room with a very comfortable king size bed. This is a small inn with very pretty, well kept grounds, pool & spa. The staff really understands good customer service. Patricia, Joseph and all the staff went out of their way to accommodate us in a friendly, caring manner. The location is great, across... More

We really enjoyed our 3 days at West Beach Inn. I did a lot of homework before choosing the West Beach Inn and so glad i made this choice. We made the reservation via the hotel's own website and got a better deal than any of the hotel "hot deal" sites. Check out West Beach inn's own promotions page. The... More

We stayed here at the beginning of April 2013 for Spring Break. I made reservations ahead of time through Expedia and got a relatively good price. The property is located across the street from the marina and diagonal to West Beach. We were able to walk to the beach portion in about 3 minutes and Stearns Wharf (shopping, dining) in... More
