Our HotelPlanner expert reviews of Courtyard by Marriott Santa Barbara Downtown

Our experts HotelPlanner experts periodically visit and review the hotels we represent in person.
"Great for Tourists and Leisure Groups"
Overall score4.0/ 5
Great tourist hotel in the heart of Santa Barbara's historic downtown area. Has recently re-branded into a La Quinta, so the entire property has gone through a complete renovation and will continue until March 2014. Property has 68 rooms with either a king, 1 queen or 2 double beds and the option of interior or exterior corridors. There is a free continental hot breakfast, free Wi-Fi in all the rooms & public spaces, a fitness center, business center, local pantry style store, outdoor pool & jacuzzi and ample free parking. Everything is walking distance, lots of stores & shoppes, restaurants, short drive to the beach and other local attractions. Close to the 101 freeway.

"Disappointed"
Overall score3.0/ 5
I had asked for two Qween beds but when we arrived I was told I only had one Qween bed. Not what I had reserved.

01-Sep-2020 Verified review, stayed from Sat Aug 29 to Sun Aug 30 2020 at a $273.60 average nightly rate.
"Currently under construction."
Overall score2.0/ 5
Nice location, but major construction is going on right now. Perhaps the street side is OK, but the back side with the construction is very noisy and dusty. Also the A/C units are like little jet engines impossible to sleep with these units on. On a positive note, the room was clean, bed was comfy, staff was friendly.

22-Sep-2019 Verified review, stayed from Fri Sep 20 to Mon Sep 23 2019 at a $225.60 average nightly rate.
"Beautiful and friendly staff."

La Quinta Inn was beautiful, clean and the staff was very friendly. We will stay there again.

Property description

Located in downtown Santa Barbara on State Street, the Art Deco inspired hotel has been welcoming guests for more than 40 years. This vibrant part of the community is just a few blocks from the beach and offers a restful retreat after a day well-spent boutique-hopping through some of the country's most upscale retail shops, touring the historic Santa Barbara Art-scape, catching a show at the Granada, Lobero or Arlington Theatres or simply doing nothing and soaking in some sun poolside.Amenities of our 70 room hotel are myriad, and include perks such as a complimentary continental breakfast that's served fresh each morning, high-speed wireless Internet access and spacious, well-appointed rooms. Rooms are available in several types and discounts are available for groups and extended stays.

"hank you! I will definitely be recommending your service to others I know. It made the confusing task of booking a hotel block easy as pie! I can't imagine how tedious it would have been to call each of the hotels- and who would want to when they all competed for our business instead? :)" C.T. - San Marcos, CA
