Top Arts and Culture Center Hotel Reviews

The Presidio

8/10 Good

"Parking area small"

Casa Riviera, a ZenStay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spotless and had everything we needed."

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"The property was as described, clean, very nice rooms. Was it worth over $400 per night- no, but that’s pretty typical of SB. Great location near the harbor, walkable to west beach, downtown, funk zone, etc. Hot tub was a great bonus."

Lemon Tree Inn

8/10 Good

"We stayed in Room 335 and it was great. The room was clean and large. The beds were comfortable. The TV and AC both worked and so did the fridge. I liked the walk-in shower. We had a nice enclosed balcony that overlooked the pool and garden. We weren't impressed with the Crocodile Restaurant. The food was overpriced and the staff seemed disinterested. A beer and a cocktail cost $30.00! I would stay here again, but would eat elsewhere."

Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location near beach and harbor areas. Great continental breakfast , super friendly and helpful staff . We rode the complimentary bikes all over , had a wonderful stay, highly recommend"

Orange Tree Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Had a nice stay, was only 1 night but staff was helpful and room was clean"

The De La Vina Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Quiet street."

Kimpton Canary Hotel by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"All the staff were so kind, helpful, and overall welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We were by a window over the trash area, and close to the fire station so there were some louder moments when we weren’t expecting them but overall great stay."
