My boyfriend and I stayed at the Castillo Inn at the beach. We were a lil skeptical due to the great price for a 3 day stay. When we arrived we were in heaven. There was maybe 20 rooms it reminded me of a small spanish village. Located across the street from Stearns Wharf and West Beach we really didn't... more

We spent almost one day online researching hotels we do not like to pay a lot, but like to stay in a nice clean hotels. We finally decided to pick "Castillo Inn" we arrived and our reservation was booked and room ready as promissed. Greeted nicelly by Tyler the front desk receptionist was provided with information on shoping and places... more

We cancelled our reservation in large part because of the rude and condescending attitude of "Tyler" the front desk personnel who answered the telephone both times we called to discuss our reservation. Customer service and professionalism are of paramount importance - especially in the very competitve world of the hospitality industry. I think that common courtesy would be better served... more

This is an awesome little romantic place. The rooms are beautiful and quiet......bathroom is to die for and beds are so comfy. You can walk to the beach and stroll along the water. We will definately go back to Castillo Inn. It looks small and quaint from the outside but the luxury is inside. Tyler was very friendly and made... more

The Castillo Inn in Santa Barbara is a very nice hotel. There are only about 20 rooms so it is not very big. We had just happened upon the Castillo Inn while driving thru Santa Barbara. We got a rate of $235 a night on a Saturday Night which is a little high for us, but you will find that... more

Didn't even stay at hotel. Called hotel twice in same day. First time to ask front desk clerk (Tyler, says he lives at hotel & claims to be general manager) what was available 4th of July weekend. Clerk answered phone saying "front desk" & sounded totally irritated that he even had to answer a phone call. He abruptly told me... more

We stumbled into the Castillo Inn while arriving in S. Barbara, and liked the spanish style straight away. Our room was really nice, spacious and confortable with a big bed and we even had WI FI and a parking place 10 yards from our room ! My wife liked it so much that we stayed an extra night and relaxed... more

My husband and I were looking for a place to stay overnight. We just happened upon this nicely decorated motel and decided to see if there were any vacancies. The clerk was friendly and nice and we booked our room. Since it was a weekend, the AAA rate was unavailable. Something which is the norm for California I guess. The... more

We found the Castillo Inn by chance as we were driving past and really loved the one night we stayed there and would have liked to stay longer. The reason we liked it so much: great location, quiet, and fabulous room. The room was very smart, large and stylish with a flat-screen TV, sofa, nice furniture, large bathroom (with bath... more
