Santa Barbara Hotel Guide - Santa Barbara Orchid Estate hotels in Santa Barbara, United States of America.

"It’s Motel 6. Very basic. Good value but nothing fancy. "

"Clean rooms everyday, friendly stuff and welcoming. Awesome place to stay "

"Noisy aircon"

"A nice and cosy place for a short trip"

"The free breakfast was good, had a lot of choices. The shower head needs to be replaced in room 203. The pond and the grounds were beautiful. Loved the ducks which for 50 cents you can feed them. Loved the free toy fish. We will definitely stay there again. "

"I stayed two nights in March 2026 and had a very poor experience. On the first night a neighboring room’s air conditioner made loud bursting noises, so around midnight I asked the front desk for another room and moved to a far-end room. That room had towels on the bathroom floor and trash in the bin, though the bed looked clean. I fetched fresh towels from the lobby, then discovered there was no toilet paper; I managed with tissues. The next morning I reported the issues and requested toilet paper; staff brought one roll and said they’d send housekeeping. Later that evening the room had not been cleaned. I found a live cockroach on the floor, trapped it under a cup, and left it there. At checkout I reported the uncleaned room and the cockroach; the front-desk staff apologized verbally but offered no remedy or compensation. I have photos of the cockroach."

"The breakfast was great, with many choices, including fruit, yogurt, eggs, bacon, sausage, and a cool machine that makes small, tender pancakes that are almost like crepes (great with nutella on them). A machine makes a variety of tasty espresso drinks at the push of a button (grinding the beans for each serving). The pool, hot tub, courtyard and garden area are beautiful, well-maintained, and spacious, with plenty of seating and walkways throughout. The room was nice, with a sleek, modern feel in the main area that included a small couch, coffee table, and an armoire."

"Breakfast was perfect"

"My kids loved the pool. Place was safe and clean. Disappointed there was a $20/night parking fee for guests. "
