We were really happy with this hotel. I stayed here with 2 kids, and the kitchenette made it easy to save money by eating in. The hotel also has wonderful extras: a nice continental breakfast with lots to choose from, wine & cheese in the afternoon, and cookies in the evening. The location is good - walking distance from the... more

Our room was huge and had a full kitchen! We loved the cal king bed & comfy linens. This is not exactly the lap of luxury but the value is good. Visit the Brew House down the street for a great meal and the pier & harbor are less than a mile away in each direction. I'd stay here again... more

Clean, comfortable room and courteous, helpful staff. Queen beds and kitchette a real plus. A short walk to our destination, Santa Barbara City College made driving unnecessary. We will definitely return. more

My wife and I stayed for one night while having dinner with friends. it was very relaxing and reading the newspaper by the pool, followed by wine and cheese in the afternoon. The room and bed were very comfortable, and we enjoyed the complimentary breakfast in the morning. The location was perfect for my walk along the cliffs by the... more

The staff at the Inn by the Harbor was fantastic. They were friendly, courteous and accomodated our requests promptly. I read other reviews on the hotel indicating that the "rooms are too small".

My husband and I stayed here over Memorial weekend. We paid about $220 a night for a large room with a king bed, small dining table, and small kitchen. The hotel is converted from an apartment building, which you can immediately tell by looking at it. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but we felt like we were staying in... more

The hotel staff were pleasant and professional, the hotel grounds were lovely and restful, the room was spacious and well-decorated. However, the surrounding neighborhood is rundown and the walk to the beach and harbor was marred by homeless folks gathered on the sidewalks outside their beatup vehicles, standing in line for handouts. The Santa Barbara city council needs to be... more

nice spanish style hotel, our room was huge with a mini kitchen and a big bathroom, although it did seem a bit outdated. We didn't use the pool, but we loved the cheese and biscuits they served at 5pm for free. The breakfast was ok, nothing hot, but you can eat in the lovely terrace. The beach is quite a... more

We stayed in this inn over Memorial weekend. The staff was extremely courteous and helpful in suggesting activities in Santa Barbara, making dinner reservations, etc. We especially enjoyed the free amenities included with our stay: continental breakfast, afternoon wine & cheese, fresh cookies in the evening, hot tub, bike rentals, and DVD rentals (all free!). The Inn was only a... more
