Santa Barbara Hotel Guide - Arts and Culture Center hotels in Santa Barbara, United States of America.

"Great location and comfortable room"

"We had a large group that stayed there & everyone was happy with their stay. Specifically, with the staff. The young gentleman and young woman at the front desk on Saturday, March 28th were very welcoming and patient with so many of us arriving at the same time. Our bartender at arrival was also very attentive with our drink orders. Would definitely stay there again. The decor is beautiful and calming. And, great service goes a long way after a long train ride. "

"It’s hard to write a review saying I will not stay here again because I know some people would really like this place. I’ll start with the positives; the location is great, the parking is easy and free, there are bikes you can use, motel vibes, breakfast was included and ok, all overall fine. I did not like how old the place felt, the carpet in the room, there was a Peloton bike in the tiny storage closet ‘gym’ space, but the Peloton is not connected to an account, so it’s unusable which matters to me and probably not others, no weights, the wine happy hour is box wine and the staff was fine, no warmth but did their job."

"We loved this hotel so much that we made a reservation as soon as we got home!"

"Staff didn’t tell us about restaurant being closed and didn’t know where we could go for food. The room was 81 degrees when we went to bed and finally cooled off by morning in spite of us turning it on at 5:00pm. We didn’t avail ourselves of the jacuzzi or pool, but it looked nice. The landscaping was also nice."

"Awesome experience"

"CLEANLINESS: Very clean! Noticed a few scuffs on the bathroom wall, and a hair on the bathroom floor. Overall, the room was very clean. ROOM: Very spacious, as we also had two dogs, a playpen, and a crate. There was enough room for my partner and I, that we didn't feel too cramped. The view of the mountain was amazing! Love that we could open the windows and get fresh air. The bathroom and shower were also spacious. I do wish that the water pressure was better, and the option for a hand-held shower was available. While the rain shower head is nice, it makes it difficult if you're trying not to get your hair wet. COMMUNICATION: Since the moment I booked, communication was a breeze. Everything is via text, which is nice. They do have automated texts for check-out, so if you have special accommodations (late check-out), it isn't reflected in that text. But I received prompt responses when I inquired. CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT: Very easy, as a code is sent to you. No staff on site. SECURITY: Several security cameras on site, which was nice since there is no staff on site. PARKING: Parking is limited and underground. The driveway is steep (so lowered cars, do not attempt!). They have more EV parking stalls, which made it difficult to park at times, NEIGHBORHOOD: The neighborhood was quiet, as there are business/offices surrounding Casa Riviera, and some residential. Walkable to shops and some restaurants. It would be about a 20min walk to the Funk Zone. "

"L'accueil était parfait. L'endroit idéal pour découvrir santa Barbara. Piscine et jacuzzi top. Chambre bien décorée et impeccable. Petit déjeuner copieux, il manquait un plus de produits salés jambon fromage etc .."
