The first thing that comes to mind when you think of this hotel is the beds – they are incredibly comfortable… You'll never want to leave them. They are a crisp white, extremely clean, and very fluffy. :) Perfect for somebody picky like myself. The hotel itself is very trendy and sits right in the middle of Santa Barbara. It's... More

Recently stayed at the Canary Hotel, Santa Barbara and can't speak highly enough of the staff, the facilities and the hotel in general. Great location near State Street and would highly recommend lunch by the pool, great food in a beautiful setting. The bar in the evening is fantastic with very attentive staff. Would have given them an excellent rating... More

Really enjoyed our stay at the Canary Hotel. The decor is just gorgeous - it inspired me to re-decorate my house in a similar style. Valet and reception were friendly and professional. Room was small but very well decorated and the bed was comfortable. Nice turn-down service with Kerigs in-room. When I come back I want to go for the... More

We really enjoyed our one-night stay at the Canary Hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and recommended a nice mexican restaurant for dinner. Our room and bathroom were both extremely spacious, tastefully decorated (including a beautiful 4-post bed) and spotless. The hotel is centrally located, about one mile walk from the beach, and at the corner of State... More

We booked in at the Canary Hotel for two nights and frankly the only downside of the entire stay was that it wasn't long enough! With all there was to do and see in Santa Barbara and wine country beyond, we barely had time to relax on the rooftop pool deck, which is one of the most charming features of... More

After a long drive from San Francisco, arriving at the beautiful Canary Hotel was a pleasure and relief. I chose Canary Hotel after reading reviews on Trip Advisor and Expedia and because of its location in Santa Barbara and we wouldn't stay anywhere else now. The hotel is just gorgeous, it has that real Spanish revival influence which is so... More

I grew up in Montecito and after moving away have returned to stay here over other options. I chose this hotel because it truly offers the best location for shopping & nightlife in its class. While it's technically a 4 star, this ranks right up with other 5 stars in the area (those which are miles away from this State... More

Comfortable, stylish hotel with a perfect location if you want to be able to walk to all the restaurants, shops, etc in downtown. The hotel is a great place to escape to from LA for a weekend. We didn't eat at the restaurant but we did enjoy after dinner drinks at the bar. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable.... More

Canary Hotel is lovely - great location right off State Street. Room was a little small, but bed was VERY comfortable. Bathroom was nice with small TV in it. Really nice accommodations - staff pretty friendly. Rooftop bar is great place to view Santa Barbara. A little pricey - but what isn't in Santa Barbara! More

We recently relocated to California from the East Coast (NYC) and have been exploring coastal towns when time permits. The location of the hotel is fabulous. Once we arrived we did not need our car until it was time to depart. Huge sidewalks, great shopping and dining. Our favorite restaurants are Bouchon (French - call for reservations) and Arigato (sushi).... More
