This historic Santa Barbara hotel was built in 1917 and has been charmingly remodeled in 2005 with Catalina and Malibu tile, wrought iron balcony railings, and French windows overlooking the city.

Great location, comfortable beds.
Room was a little musty.This is a great hotel if you are utilizing Amtrak to get to Santa Barbara - it's within an easy walking distance and there are also shuttles available. Lots of food and shops also within walking distance - and don't forget the pier and beach!
