The Santa Ynez Marriott provides a convenient full service hotel with easy access to Santa Barbara County wine country. My wife and I used it as a base to explore the area. We found that it had most of the amenities that we count on with Marriott. The hotel is generally clean and quiet even though it is very close... more

i've stayed at this hotel at least 4 times in the last 2 years and it is by far the worst run marriott i have ever been to. Poor survice, worst organized, worst run hotel. I am a gold card member, not that this sould make a difference but, believe me it won't help at this hotel. I was on... more

We stayed here for one night enroute from LA to Monterey, CA. It was about a three hour drive from LA airport to the hotel up Highway 1 and location wise was a good place to have our overnight stay. Hotel check-in was straightforward and staff were friendly enough but didn't recognise our Marriott Gold Membership. We had a standard... more

We reserved a Suite on the top floor for the Slovang Double Century. The second we stepped in, a great experience! The staff was very courteous and calm. They couldn't let us in yet (still cleaning it) so we went down to the place my grandparents were staying, Motel 6 (see review) This is also one of the only Marriott... more

This Marriott in Buellton is quiet, and even though there was a wedding the weekend of our stay, we didn't even notice it. It's a fairly ok location if you plan to explore the Santa Barbara County Wine Trail, and visit Solvang. Nothing to see or do within the immediate vicinity of the hotel. Except for fastfood chains and The... more

This area is frankly one of the most beautiful areas in America. But then again, that's all so subjective as there's a lot of great areas. The location of the hotel is in the San Ynez Valley area and looks like something out of a John Steinbeck book. Given he was born just north of the area in Salinas, it... more

when you walk in to the hotel it seems to be a great place until you check in and head up or down the elevators that may or may not work at the time I hope you don't get stuck in them the doors open on to carpet that belongs in Circus Circus They must have gotten a great deal... more

My one night stay at the Santa Ynez Marriott was very disappointing. Firstly, upon arrival, our check-in experience was very lackluster. We arrived at around 11pm and it was quite obvious that the front office clerk did NOT want to be there. The lobby area was quite loud and we were told that there was an associate birthday party taking... more

We used the Santa Ynez Valley Marriott Hotel for our daughter's wedding reception. The hotel facilities were clean and contemporary. The staff was friendly and we felt we received great value for our daughter and son-in-law's special day! more
