This property was conveniently located to many dining options and it was right in front of the beach. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only con was that parking was a little difficult. They do offer a parking option, but we arrived towards the later part of the night and there were only a few compact spaces left.

We were in Santa Barbara for my nieces wedding. We booked 3 king rooms for 3 nights at Harbor View - I only wish we could have stayed longer!!! Barbara at check in was fantastic! We stayed in the newer North building with a city view. The rooms are newly renovated and spotlessly clean. The decor and design is lovely. Everyone on staff was friendly and helpful. Housekeeping was quick to provide extra towels and hangers and made sure our room was serviced early before we had to get ready for the wedding. (The beds are hands down the most comfy hotel beds ever) On-site parking is super convenient. The hotel is centrally located which made walking to shops and restaurants so easy. I hope to get back to Santa Barbara again. I will definitely stay at Harbor View!! We looked at other hotels as we walked around. Harbor View is the only place we would stay.
