This hotel is located right in the heart of the action on State Street. The room was comfortable but a bit cramped. We stayed on a Monday night so we had no noise throughout the night, but the garbage being picked up on the street outside at 7 a.m., and the elevator adjacent to our room clunking up and down... more

The price was a little spendy but worth the stay. Right downtown. The staff was perfect, from the valet to the front desk. Very quiet, short distance from the beach. You can ride the shuttle for twenty-five cents each way. The little breakfast in the morning was wonderful. Loved the ice tea that was available during the day. Will surely... more

We stayed at the Hotel Santa Barbara on the recommendation of friends and we are happy that we did. You can't beat the location of the hotel, right on State St. in the heart of the action. If you are concerned about noise I would suggest a room away from the street. We were there during the week and had... more

Overlooking the inner courtyard area, where I presume the air-conditioning units are, it... more

The hotel itself was wonderful. Our room was on the Cota St. side of the building and we heard no noise from the street below. The beds were very comfortable and the room was immaculate. The elevator was a bit slow - we used the stairs. The continental breakfast had delicious pastries and a good variety of cereal and fruit.... more

The noise of the bars across the street kept us up until 3:00am. Our room was facing the interior courtyard where all the air conditioning units are for the entire hotel. Once the bars closed, the motors of the A/C units were so loud they kept us up til the morning. We were very happy that our stay was over. more

We stayed on the top floor in a suite because we were warned that a club next door had a band playing and we might hear music all night in another room. The rooms at the front of the hotel would also be noisy with the passing traffic and tram. With this in mind, if you're planning on staying here... more
