Harbor View Hotel is very convenient to the beach and to a bunch of restaurants. The extraordinary thing about the hotel is the staff. They go out of their way to be helpful. We left something in the room which they found and called us and then shipped it out immediately. We were extremely thankful and shall return to the hotel!!

This hotel has a great location. All the staff are extremely friendly. We stayed at North Wing. It is very nice. Wonderful hallway. We had a room with double queen beds. The room is more spacious than normal hotel room. We would definitely stay at Harbor View Inn again next time we are back at Santa Barbara.
