Sorry everyone - this is an OK property, really, but I left here with a bad taste in my mouth. I know SB is pricey, so was not put off by the high room rate here due to it's location near the harbor/beach. I had a two-night stay in March while visiting friends. At first I liked it, but by... more

Excellent location across the road from the beech and marina in Santa Barbara. The bedroom was lovely but the bathroom was very small and did not have any extractor fan. There is a small pool and jacuzzi but the water in the pool was dirty. The breakfast was very poor and in all we felt that this hotel was overpriced. more

We visited Santa Barbara for Spring Break and when searching for a nice place to stay The West Beach Inn was recommended to us. We stayed in a suite that was very spacious and offered a separate bedroom as well as a kitchen. Our family looked forward to the cheese and wine reception each night by the pool. The beach... more

This is a great little hotel across from the beach in Santa Barbara. It is within walking distance to the Pier and the Wharf where there are lots of restaurants. A little far to walk to shopping on State Street but that was easily accessible by car. We arrived on Sunday and enjoyed a walk down the beach where the... more

We stayed here for one night while driving up the coast on our "babymoon." It was perfect for our trip. The room was nice, with a less outdated look than most hotels. The location of the hotel was good; just a couple blocks from State Street and Stearn's Wharf. The staff was pleasant and helpful as well. Our room (115)... more

We booked this on the strength of Trip Advisor reviews. Santa Barbara is an expensive place to stay. We needed a room that could accomodate 4 people in 2 queens. This hotel had that accomodation and the room was beautiful. It faced out onto the main street along the ocean and it was lovely having the breeze float through the... more

We stayed at the West Beach Inn as part of a 2 1/2 week trip along the California coast. Our room was on the third floor with ocean view and king bed. The room was very nice -- absolutely no complaints! Continental breakfast also was good, although it was served in the hotel office. There are several tables, but it... more

We stayed at the West Beach Inn over President's Day weekend and we were lucky enough to be able to book just one night . The location is terrific. Don't miss breakfast at Sambo's! Best coffee I've ever had. Staff was wonderful. Room was fabulous. From the outside, you think it will be a typical beach motel room but upon... more

My wife and I stayed at the West Beach Inn on February 11, 2008. The weather during our stay in Santa Barbara and California in general was outstanding with warm breezes and bright blue skies. The hotel property is in a nice location, right across from the marina/harbor. The hotel reminds me of an older apartment building that was rehabbed... more

We had a King, Oceanview room on the third floor, with a balcony overlooking the harbor, beach, and Stearn's Wharf. Our room was spacious and very comfortable, everything was clean and well-maintained, and staff was always pleasant and helpful. Decor was fresh and attractive, there was a desk/table that had enough room for us to have our breakfast and our... more
