Beachside Inn

Beachside Inn

8/10 Good
"If proximity to the Santa Barbara, CA harbor and beach is your priority, the Beachside Inn is a great option. Even if you’re not such a harbor and beach person, this is a great place to lodge. The rooms our two parties stayed in were clean, comfortable and everything worked like A/C & heat, ceiling fan, mini fridge, lights, water pressure including hot water when needed. Our room (302) needed more light, but we had flashlights with us to see down into our luggage better at night. The free to guests daily breakfast buffet was tasty and well maintained throughout the buffet open hours each morning. Coffee and hot tea were available 24/7. Our rooms had a limited harbor view that we all loved. The swimming pool was clean and enjoyable and we liked the sundeck. The staff were all quite friendly and helpful. This is an older, but well maintained property and a very nice place to stay for easy walks to restaurants and to the peace and beauty of the Santa Barbara coast. Keep up the good work Beachside Inn!"

"Nice hotel, good location, friendly staff. Breakfast was good but not great. Maybe one or two more hot food options? Otherwise, excellent stay."

The Franciscan Hotel

The Franciscan Hotel

8/10 Good
"I really liked the location of the hotel near the beach. I had a very late check in and the staff was sleeping at 2am and it took a minute for them to wake up. He didn't give me room I booked but after complaining a good bit the GM gave me a 50% discount which worked out fine with me. I plan to book it in the future but I wouldn't pay over $275 a night. Hot tub was small but nice and cleaned every morning. Great for people with pets."

"It's been renovated and it's so nice. Super clean and located right on State Street. Parking is in the rear of the hotel, small bar near the lobby - I cannot recommend it enough."

Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort

Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort

8/10 Good
"Great property for families, centrally located and overall wonderful experience. The resort is a little dated and could use a small facelift, but overall it was well maintained. My biggest gripe was that none of the ice makers around the property were working."
