Our first time at this hotel. The location is very nice although the hotel is spread across several buildings, making some relatively far from the lobby and pool. The room was clean and comfortable. A little pricey for us but I would stay again with off season rates.

Great location and lovely property. No restaurant on premises but plenty within close walking distance…Especially Jeannine’s for breakfast and Harbor Restaurant for dinner. Bathrooms need renovation…toilets, especially for seniors, are ridiculously low. Enjoyed our stay though and will likely stay again.

Great hotel in SB. Staff was really helpful and efficient. We never waited, whether at check in, check out, or for general questions. Room was very clean and comfortable. The bed was so cozy. We loved the pool and hot tub. The hotel has an incredible view of the beach and is close to everything. We did not need a car. All in all a wonderful vacation.

We loved staying in Santa Barbara at the Harbor View Inn. The bathroom was by far the best hotel bathroom we have ever used. The patio was lovely with a beautiful wisteria tree, the passing train (not loud) and the wonderful Mountain View. We love our visits to Santa Barbara and will stay at the Harbor View Inn again, for sure.
