Hotel Californian

Hotel Californian

West Beach Santa Barbara|0.82km from Santa Barbara Harbor
The hotel is expensive, but the room is not big, there is no bathtub and no view of the sea. Most of the money is paid in this location and exquisite decoration. Hotel parking is also expensive, and there is no free service, so the 7, 8, 8 nights of hotels are really not cost-effective. Of course, it is also a bit historical and design. It is indeed a lot of rich people to live, but if you want to really enjoy the feeling of rich people, it is best to book a room for more than one night, otherwise you will regret the money throwing in the water like me. Don't say that I didn't see the world in poor and sour, I moved out and lived in downtown Santa Barbara, LA and other places, no comparison and no harm. I can say that I don’t think I have too much money to live. After all, it is still a luxury hotel. It will not be uncomfortable. I can’t buy it with a little money. Don’t be as fascinated by Xiaohongshu as I am.

Santa Barbara Downtown Santa Barbara|2.96km from Santa Barbara Harbor
The breakfast was very rich, the service was very good, very stylish, the room had more than sixty square feet, there was a dining table, living room, fireplace, jacuzzi, kingsize bed, the boss was very good, there was free parking, we arrived It was late, almost eight o'clock, she prepared tea and red wine for us. The hotel is basically a big garden. It can be seen that the boss has spent many years sorting out the arrangement. Get up during the day, walk in the garden, sunbathe on the sun loungers on the lawn, read the book, very comfortable. Take the No. 1 road and stay here for one or two nights before going to LA.

Marina Beach Motel

West Beach Santa Barbara|0.43km from Santa Barbara Harbor
Santa Barbara has become massively expensive, yes this is something that’s relatively new over the last three years since I’ve been going quite a lot as my godson lives there. My usual hunt was the Hilton on East Beach. Their prices have become of seen without me being able to find anything below 650 to 900 per night anymore. So, I needed a bit of a budget motel and this came in around $400 with taxes per night, maybe this is a little bit high for the time, but, it may have been because it was a special gay pride weekend. Not sure. I like to be extremely honest in these reviews and it’s no offense to the hotel. I will say that the office staff was one of the highlights because they were gentle and kind of nice. I might say that don’t come early and expect to get a room because they don’t check you in until after 3 PM. I’m not sure why they didn’t let me in because they had rooms clean at my rate, was exhausted from getting up at 4 AM to make it to California. It’s not a huge deal. There is no pool, they have a few bicycles to rent, there is free parking in the motel but I don’t think they have enough spaces for all the guest. This was a plus having free parking. No, this is a single level very budget motel. The door to the rooms open directly into a parking lot. The good thing is these rooms are extremely clean, nice bedding, comfortable pillows, tiny bathroom and closet but the bathroom was immaculate and had a nice modern tiled shower. they have a coffee maker in the room and also serve coffee in the motel little lobby. The coffee is pretty good. They have a very simple breakfast with fresh fruit and pastries and hard-boiled eggs! For me that was a big plus because I love hard-boiled eggs for breakfast. I wasn’t up to my normal physical activity, but next time I will definitely utilize the bicycles which are included with your stay. Overall, this place is a bit charming. I hope I can find a time within the next year to come back and hopefully it won’t be on some very expensive weekend. Location is excellent as everyone says half a block from the beach, West Beach and very close to State Street.

West Beach Santa Barbara|0.51km from Santa Barbara Harbor
Breakfast is a typical Western breakfast, with cereal, bread, cake, coffee, simple but sufficient. The location of the hotel is superb. Go out and turn right and walk 3 minutes to the beach, and 5-6 minutes to the pier. The front desk service of the hotel is warm and thoughtful and very friendly, 24 hours a day, and I am very patient to call for consultation if something happens at night.

West Beach
Hotel location is good, 2 swimming pools. Breakfast is a simple continental breakfast. There is no problem with full food. The equipment of the hotel belongs to the old America, everything is old American furniture, clean and clean. Barbara is a non-smoking city. If you want to smoke, you can't be in the hotel garden. To walk to the back of the hotel, I remember parking at the hotel seems to be 30 USD / night VALET PARKING is convenient. Drive. Ride in the hotel's blue bicycle town. Remember to get a bicycle lock when you pick up the bicycle. In addition, I would like to say that I am not satisfied with the booking service provided by Ctrip this time. 1- Ctrip's price shows that all tax-included prices are 1,000 cheaper than Booking and other website prices. So I chose Ctrip after comparison. But When I left this hotel, the hotel paid a city tax and two other items such as miscellaneous charges on the bill. I think there is a suspicion that Ctrip does not add these two items in order to show low prices. .Other booking sites have clearly written that Santa Barbara has a city tax, but Ctrip, hey. I just want to use this word to describe it. The experience is very bad. 2- I booked a double bed and arrived at the hotel. Hotel Gave me a family room. This made me very annoyed, so I went back to the front desk to ask what was going on. After the front desk inquiry, the front desk said that someone had assigned me a room type in advance. But the order was indeed a 2 bed room. Anyway The front desk waited for 20 minutes to be allocated a twin room.

West Beach
The front desk service is good, the attitude is very good, when the check-in prompts the opening hours of the pool and laundry room, daily breakfast, fruit, snacks, free milk cookies at night, the front desk will remind you of the time. The hotel has plenty of parking spaces and special features. The only downside is that the floor has some sound and the sound is not very good. You can hear it next door. Refrigerator cooling effect is good, air conditioning is also, that is, the sound is a little bigger. There is a dressing table outside the bathroom, a lighted makeup mirror and a separate wardrobe. The bathroom and shower room are large. Outside the door are gas stations and supermarkets. It takes 5-10 minutes to walk from the beach.

Goodness, this place is such a hidden gem for all types of travelers. I’m so happy we made the decision to stay here for our 3 night getaway from LA to the place where we met 10 years ago and hold dear. Now we have two small kids along for the ride, and this was the best place we’ve stayed in our re-visits, especially for a family. But it would be wonderful for all types of groups - couples looking for dog friendly, grandparents who appreciate the quiet lush courtyard, families who need the extra space and convenience. I have already recommended to my local friends when looking for family or friend accommodations. We stayed in room 6, one of the king suites with a separate bedroom/living room and full kitchen. It was perfect: the bedroom is large enough for a toddler floor air mattress (or in king bed if needed) and younger child in pack n play. Then we had the pull out couch as backup if needed. But the apartment is huge - way bigger than most local long term rentals. And being able to sit right out front in chairs or the grassy courtyard full of flowers, butterflies, and birds, was such a treat. Plus parking was right behind this unit, so super convenient with kids. But it’s so small, all the rooms are easy access to the back lot. Staff are so helpful and friendly. You really can’t help but feel positive and grateful when engaging with them, even during covid times. So overall, you absolutely cannot beat the charm, convenience and affordability of this hidden gem. Usually one feels duped by the Santa Barbara hotels, especially after you’ve lived here. Some places really gouge you so you can get a slice of paradise. But Beach House is actually worth every penny and more for what you receive in return. Also, the location is perfect. We love this area as visitors. Very safe and quiet, off the beaten path but walkable or quickly drive/bike to everything. Leadbetter beach is just around the corner and has the best accessibility of any beach in my opinion. Which is huge when you have kids. Don’t hesitate, if you want that hard to pinpoint but definable Santa Barbara charm, plus space and convenience with an extremely reasonable price tag, this is it.

Santa Barbara Urban Wine Trail
This hotel had great charm and is centrally located off State St close to many restaurants and tasting rooms, and a quick 15 min walk to the beach/Funk Zone. Room- we had a king which was comfortable and the room itself was a nice size. We faced the back of the building so our room was quiet, personally I think the rooms facing State St would be loud at night. Bathroom- like other reviews stated, the bathroom was small and the shower flooded the bathroom every use. They have a half door on the shower that doesn’t cover the length of the shower head causing flooding every time. It was a nuisance to deal with every day and could easily be fixed if they added shower curtains. Staff- everyone was pleasant and the daily cookies and tea were nice.

Hotel Indigo is a quaint boutique hotel with both modern and traditional Santa Barbara touches. Its location couldn’t be more convenient, just a half block south of the train station on State Street. It’s a short walk to the beach in one direction and downtown in the other. From the moment I stepped into the fresh, bright, modern lobby I was greeted with warm smiles. There couldn’t have been a more welcoming introduction to my stay here. The staff was consistently available, professional, and friendly, ready with a sincere greeting every time I came and went. COVID precautions are taken seriously here and it was clear a lot of thought went into guest safety and comfort. My room was on the first floor with a private patio. The room makes the most of its small size with a clean, simple, minimalistic layout. Bright white walls expand the space while beautiful wood grain flooring and exposed brick on the patio side give it a historic feel befitting its location. The TV and air conditioning unit, both wall mounted, help keep the limited space open and uncluttered. The single closet/dresser/coffeemaker unit (a Keurig!) does likewise. Still, there was plenty of workspace with a large glass-topped desk and numerous outlets. A white noise generator was a pleasant surprise although the hotel was very quiet during my stay and it wasn’t really needed. The occasional train was not a bother. The European style bathroom is quite small as expected. The adjustable handheld shower is a delight. The highlight was the patio, large and well appointed with a wicker table and two cushioned chairs, surrounded by greenery and dark woods. What a delightful setting it was for coffee in the morning and late night snacks. I look forward to returning here in a few months. This property is truly a gem.
