I wish I could say I loved my experience at the Canary. The location is superb, the decor beautiful, the appointments clearly well thought out. Having worked at luxury properties as both a Catering Manager and a PR Director, I feel my taste is discerning; this is an exquisite property. What was entirely not exquisite, however, was the customer service... more

Husband and I stayed three nights mid-week. We picked this hotel for its great location - easily walkable to downtown shops, restaurants and historic buildings - and were not disappointed.

The Canary is well located in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara, walking distance to many fine restaurants. Next door is a great gym - the... more

we stayed here for only two nights, I wish it could have been longer. This hotel is top notch in every way. The service is amazing. Front Desk was very courteous. Even the guy delivering room service went above and beyond. You can't beat the location. Step right out the door and you are right in the heart of everything.... more
