Great location

Great location and an excellent on site restaurant. Knocked it down one star because the bathroom door handle was broken and the room was quite small, but otherwise a great stay.

Great Location!!!

We loved staying at this Hotel! Staff was so helpful and friendly. Lobby a great place to hang and have a cup of coffee visiting with other guests. Room was perfect and bed so very comfortable. Will definitely stay here again.

Welcoming hotel

Reception team were welcoming and friendly. Reception area was clean and relaxing. Valet parking was helpful Our room walks seemed thin and easy to hear ' neighbours' talking and we were unlucky that they decided to use the outside space to loudly and only moved when I asked at 0015 to be quiet! Great location for seafront and harbour and the shops!!

Small rooms

The hospital and attention was outstanding.Great location down State Street But the room we selected was a little bit too small we had to squeeze around the king size bed and for the garden view you get the picture A little over priced for the holidays for the size of room

Loved the property and location. Super charming and clean. The bathroom was very small and hard to navigate with 3 adults, but we did it. We had a great private patio that we could sit in and all the staff was very kind and friendly.

Great location

The public areas were spacious and nicely furnished. The restaurant was delicious and colorful. The Inn was in a great location. The staff was delightful. My only disappointment was that the bathroom shower was so tiny that the floor flooded after each shower.
Dennis, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A really lovely boutique hotel with modern rooms and a light airy feel to the hotel. We travelled by Amtrak so it was super convenient. We had a problem with our room the first night but it was sorted really quickly and the staff were genuinely keen to ensure we were happy. On the Friday night guests were invited to meet in the lounge area for wine and nibbles and to mingle with other guests. It was really nice and we chatted to some fellow travellers! The rooms are very small but comfortable and well equipped.

This is centrally located in downtown and there are many delicious places to eat nearby. We enjoyed the beach just half a mile away and we also walked up State Street with many wonderful vendors.
Monica, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Upscale boutique hotel in the heart of Santa Barbara. It’s a great place to stay but avoid the rooms facing State Street. The room was very nice and clean but noisy and bright. However when I asked to be moved they were more than accommodating.

10/10 Exceptional

The Riviera House was a welcoming location. It was small, quaint, and intimate! The hotel was clean and well attended. All of the staff were friendly and welcoming. However, the noise level during their early morning renovations was extremely loud! Other than that we enjoyed staying at the Riviera House!

Multiple stays

This is our go to hotel whenever we stay in Santa Barbara. It is always very clean. The common areas are super cute.The beds are comfortable. The rooms are small, but we don't need a lot because we never spend much time in the room. It is conveniently located a short walk from the train station and our favorite restaurant in SB.

Too much noise from the room. Can hear next door and everything outside. Rooms are pretty small as well. Very nice and clean. Awesome staff and very walkable to everything.
Aaron, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A nice, clean hotel with a charming beachy vibe. The room was small but very practical, featuring a desk, chair, coffee station, and a comfortable king bed. The bathroom was clean and well-designed. What stood out the most was the incredibly friendly staff—including the valet—and the hotel’s dog-friendly atmosphere. My dog had a fantastic stay too!
