Beachside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Close to the beach and bars/restaurants."

West Beach Inn, a Coast Hotel

8/10 Good

"This is a good hotel to stay a night in if you are travelling through Santa Barbara. The weather in Santa Barbara is such that it's frequently humid, so the room had a kind of stuffiness to it which I think is just caused by the carpet and general dampness of the climate, and it was better after a few hours of ACc. This hotel is fine, but I wouldn't want to stay for many nights. The staff are great, the breakfast was a basic continental breakfast. There is a well maintained jacuzzi and pool, and it's across the street from a port where tour ships come in and unload their passengers to tour Santa Barbara. There is a little beach there, and many parking lots and the public lap pool, as well as a boardwalk."

Harbor View Inn

8/10 Good

"I was not aware that there is a separate building a block away from the hotel, lobby, pool and all amenities. It is not on the property so you have no lobby there and nothing is convenient. The room was beautiful and new but I would have liked to know that we weren’t on property"

Marina Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wow 10/10!!"
