Top Santa Barbara Hotel Reviews

Hotel Santa Barbara

Hotel Santa Barbara

8/10 Good
"We loved the location being on State Street and the historical significance of the hotel as well. The room was beautiful and very well designed / decorated. The bathroom could have had more hooks for towels. Also, the room was missing a dresser or an area to put your clothes in. It seemed kind of odd that there really was not a place to put your clothes. There really wasn't a great area to relax at the hotel (like an outside patio (on the roof?)). I realize that you are limited with space but a relaxing lounge would be nice besides the table area. There was a pumped in scent in the facility (spray?). It was very strong. Complimentary coffee would have been nice as well. Overall, we loved the hotel and were happy with our room. The outside noise one night was wild but I guess we should expect in the city. Thank you for a nice stay."
