Best stay in Santa Barbara
My wife and I frequent Santa Barbara and have stayed in numerous different hotels over the years. Hands down Pali House is the best hotel we’ve EVER stayed at in SB! From the overall ambiance of the hotel to the cleanliness there was nothing missed. Every interaction with employees was perfect. Noel was at the bar and was an amazing host. The hotel is a perfect location just outside of all the hustle and bust yet close enough to walk almost anywhere. We were in town for a concert and a walk to the SB Bowl was quick and saved us the headache of dealing with parking and the traffic after the show. Truthfully the best hotel stay my wife and I have had!

Amazing, cozy property. Walking distance from State Street. Employees were very nice. Summer checked us in, gave us some bubbly and gave us a quick run down of the property. The bar was intimate and Noel took care of us. Highly recommend this location for couples.
