The hotel is clean, clean! Good beds and linens. The pool is heated. The staff is attentive, friendly and accommodating. The location is excellent. You could walk to the pier or go to the beach or walk down to the winery tasting rooms. I stayed Mother's Day and was given a free upgrade to a harborview room. The lobby is... More

I stayed here for 5 nights in late April for my son's wedding. We found the staff to be extremely helpful -- actually going out of their way to help us at times! The entire motel was clean and neat. The location is excellent. The lobby/breakfast area is pretty small, but that's about the only thing negative I can say.... More

A large group of our family stayed here for two nights for a wedding. The rooms were large and clean. We felt very safe. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included in the price but it was average at best. I wasnt expecting cooked to order eggs though. Negatives- small lobby which doubled as the breakfast room.... More

Stayed here for 1 night only as part of a road trip. The road trip was booked with Virgin but we booked this hotel independently and were really happy with our choice. Staff really friendly (unusual we found on the west coast) and worked really hard. Room was spot on, spacious, fully equipped and the cleanest out of all our... More

I have stayed at this hotel several times over the past few years. While I have great friends in town it is not always an option to stay with them, and the BW Beachside is where I land when needing a hotel in SB. Things I like about this hotel: LOCATION! Right across from the breakwater, easy walk to the... More

I just wanted to pass along an endorsement of the Best Western Beachside Inn. My wife wanted a mini vacation and so we used an Amtrak gift card we had and went to Santa Barbara since I'd never been on a train. I booked for $127 a night, the BW Beachside Inn and was pleasantly surprised. I got a good... More

We recently stayed 5 nights at the Best Western Beachside Inn in Santa Barbara, CA. The front desk employees were extremely helpful and friendly and gave us a much better discount than the AAA price that we'd made reservations with. This discount was with the "Car Free Santa Barbara " program that we participated in. We saved $95 over our... More

Beachside Inn was perfect for what we needed. We only stayed 2 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. Our room was spacious and very comfortable with a pool view. The pool was clean and heated, and if the weather was a bit warmer we would have spent our evenings swimming. The location was great! We enjoyed walking along... More
