Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms are spacious and beautiful with a lovely balcony. The decor and amenities were top-notch. The service, especially during our Honeymoon stay, was extremely nice and helpful. The location is superb, making exploring Downtown Santa Barbara a breeze. Despite a bit of a letdown with the dining options, the Mediterranean dishes were delightful. The facilities were modern and convenient.
Staying at this hotel was an incredible experience. The rooms were over the top and had everything I needed, making my stay very cozy and clean. The service was excellent, with naturally welcoming staff that made me feel right at home. The fantastic location near the ocean and numerous restaurants made it a perfect choice for my trip.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious, modern, and had a high ceiling with a great balcony offering a partial view of the ocean and a direct view of the lively street below. It was really quiet, making it perfect for anyone needing a drink at any time of the day. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful, catering to all our needs for our Honeymoon stay. The location was superb, making it completely walkable to Downtown Santa Barbara. However, the dining could improve to enhance the overall experience at such a wonderful place.
I had a great time at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, modern, and had a high ceiling with a lovely balcony offering partial views of the ocean and a direct view of the lively street. While there were minor damages on some furniture and cabinets, overall, the room was comfortable and pleasant. The service was a bit hit or miss - while some staff members were very nice, others seemed uninterested and there were occasional loud noises from doors slamming. The location was superb, making it easy to explore Downtown Santa Barbara on foot, and the rooftop view was spectacular. On the downside, dining options could be improved to fully match the wonderful setting. But, the facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel offers spectacular, large, comfortable, and stylish rooms with high ceilings and ocean-facing balconies/patios. The views from the rooms were lovely and the condition was excellent. The service was friendly and helpful, with quick responses for ice, drinks, and room service. The location is excellent, near the beach and great restaurants, with a fantastic connection to downtown Santa Barbara. Overall, a luxurious stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel's location is wonderful, especially for beach and Funk Zone enthusiasts, with plenty of dining and shopping options nearby and the ocean just a block away. The rooms are beautifully maintained and provide a very comfortable stay. The service was top-notch with extremely kind and accommodating staff. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited due to current circumstances, but the overall experience was fantastic.
