The hotel was in a good location - just a short walk to the seafront and downtown Santa Barbara. The hotel is really quite quirky - with some lovely decoration and a funky feel. Liked the shared space downstairs in reception where there was an honesty bar and where a simple breakfast was served (tea, coffee, juice, some fruit, bagels and pastries). We hadnt expected this so was a nice extra. There was also a big fridge and freezer where guests could keep own items as there was nothing in the room for this. There was a really nice outside area with comfy seating, a clean pool, table tennis table. The room itself was comfy and my son (12) loved sleeping in the murphy bed which pulled down over the main double bed. Had a really nice welcome and the offer of a complimentary drink on arrival from a very lovely member of staff/owner (Derek?)

What Guests Said About Santa Barbara:

The beaches are wonderful, even in November!
The beaches are wonderful, even in November! Some of the beaches have more seaweed on them than others, and the ones with more will have a lot of flies; they're less ideal for sunbathing. There are so many exquisite restaurants, bars, and clubs. There is something for everyone, and they all tend to be near each other for those who like short walks.Villa - 6.0
Santa Barbara is a crowded, difficult city to get around in.
Santa Barbara is a crowded, difficult city to get around in. Parking is problematic and there's no real 'heart' any more. State St. is a jumble of restaurants, empty store fronts, tourist junk and bars. The so-called 'Funk' part of town is an expensive place to drink with no real character. Just a half-hour south is a more interesting city to visit, Ventura. - 10

Santa Barbara is one of the most beautiful towns in the world. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, and the beaches are great. There is also an interesting Mission, and the opportunity for sailing.RRobert SchladaleUnited States of America - 10
Santa Barbara is a gorgeous place.
Santa Barbara is a gorgeous place. Thanks to Booking.com, we found a fantastic hotel that checked all of our boxes and left us room in our budget for lavish dining and spa day. My recommendation for visitors is be prepared to spoil yourself and spend. There are many romantic places to go in the hills and along the coast. For activity seekers, Santa Barbara has a lot of recreation options. For history buffs, there are fine museums. But, be prepared to spend money to get the luxurious and glamorous experience that makes Santa Barbara and Montecito the northern enclave of the Hollywood rich and famous.EileenUnited States of America - 10
Santa Barbara is beautiful, and a bit weird.
Santa Barbara is beautiful, and a bit weird. It even smells good there! There are numerous small parks, much greenery, beautiful homes, lots of restaurants, and of course, the beach. Beware - many one-way streets, and the main street is closed to traffic for several blocks. But still, it's pretty much paradise.

It is a must to visit their museum.
It is a must to visit their museum. It had a great variety of interesting exhibits, art, an outdoor full scale dinosaur experience and a butterfly pavilion. Eat at Joe's for the best pancakes!!! The Fish House restaurant was excellent. It is like maybe visiting another country when visiting Santa Barbara.llUnited States of America

- From $206.68 per night7.3Good · 1,113 reviewsThe motel room I used was very clean and quiet. I slept very well as the large bed was very comfortable. The bathroom especially the shower were very good with no major issues. The room was well heated. The location was very good as it was within walking distance of Mission Santa Barbara in a very nice area. There was a bus stop right outside the motel so one could easily reach downtown. Both the man and woman I dealt with were very friendly and helpful.
denisCanada - From $132.35 per night7.8Good · 1,660 reviewsGreat location for us, clean, and plenty of space. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. We visited the Santa Barbara Botanical Garden and did some wine tasting near State Street. The hotel was centrally located for us. We really loved the restaurant across the street for dinner, Via Maestra 42. There were also some shops across the street including a grocery store and a lovely place for coffee and pastry, Renaud's Patisserie and Bistro.
JanUnited States of America - From $238.68 per night8.1Very Good · 1,618 reviewsFor reasons out of our control we checked in very late and the front desk was so very accommodating, which is just what we needed at the end of the travelling day. The room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. We loved the location and quietness of the neighborhood. We also had breakfast in the restaurant and both the food and service were excellent. When we visit Santa Barbara again, we will definitely book this hotel.
Mari JoCanada - From $352.60 per night7.5Good · 1,117 reviewsI stayed in a room with a king size bed. The bed was quite comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. The hotel is located on one of the main streets near the beach in Santa Barbara with easy access to several restaurants and attractions in the downtown Santa Barbara area. The staff at the hotel were all very kind and helpful. The hotel grounds are well kept with beautiful landscaping.
AlexandriaUnited States of America - From $177.01 per night7.5Good · 2,408 reviewsThe room was large. The bed and especially the pillows were first class. Would have been 10/10 but I just didn't like the bathroom (it was large and useful, but felt bleak and cold). The hotel restaurant is fantastic. No need to venture out when staying at the Lemon Tree Inn. Two nights there, two fantastic meals. I recommend the Calamari especially, the best I have ever tasted.
ColinUnited Kingdom - From $370.50 per night8.4Very Good · 419 reviewsThe location was perfect for our purposes in Santa Barbara. Quick and easy walk to State Street. Beautiful hotel and grounds.
