Very Beautiful and Comfortable
This is by far my favorite hotel in Santa Barbara. The service is impeccable and the surroundings are gorgeous! It is located right across the street from Stearns Warf and at the bottom of State St. so it is a great location. My family loves the pool because it is right across the street from the beach. I stayed in an ocean view room and it was so large and comforable. It had a balcony which overlooked the pool and the beach. The gardens are fabulous and the added bonus of room service seals the deal. I love It!

Shopping tip:
Short drive from hotel
The shopping in Santa Barbara is great. The Harbor View Inn is located at the bottom of State St. which has fabulous shopping! It has every store imaginable. It is either a long walk uptown or a short drive. There is public parking everywhere in Santa Barbara so parking is a breeze!

Weekend Getaway
From the first moment we arrived at the hotel we were very impressed with the grounds, location, and over all beauty. The rooms were more than what we expected for our money. We felt as though we were in a facility twice the price. The closeness to the beach and many other points of interest was great. Should we vist the area again we will stay in this hotel for sure.

Short drive from hotel
We were very pleased with a most excellent vegetarian restaurant. The name of it is Sojourner at 134 East Canon Perdido, Santa Barbara. The main shopping area is located on State Street which is just around the corner from the hotel. Also the harbor, the pier, and the very long clean beach is great. If you go there you will surely enjoy yourself.

Spacious accommodations
Our room was a regular 2/Queen but felt very much like a junior suite. The bathroom had a tub and a shower.

Time-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
We did not need a car. We came to Santa Barbara by train. The Station was a short walk to the hotel. The property is by the sea so we were very close to the beach and the boardwalk. We found in very easy to get to the shops, and the restaurants on State Street just by hoping on and off the troley.
