Hotel Californian
  • Sleek and modern design within the walls of beautiful Spanish Colonial revival architecture

  • Rooftop pools overlooking the waterfront

  • Beautiful and spacious rooms and suites

  • Excellent location right by the waterfront and Santa Barbara's vibrant Funk Zone


Tucked in between the lapping shores of the Pacific Ocean and the sprawling Santa Ynez mountains, Hotel Californian stands proud in the heart of this romantic Spanish Colonial town. Enjoying one of the best locations at the end of State Street, just a stones throw from the beach promenade, Hotel Californian is an excellent choice for families and couples.

Offering luxurious accommodation options, from spacious guest rooms to lavish suites, guests will be truly spoiled with delicate Moroccan inspired designs, plush furnishings and decadent amenities. Celebrity designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard has made fantastic use of the Spanish revival architecture to ensure the hotel oozes with historic charm as well as modern opulence. Custom-made fixtures and wall-coverings drape the hotel, creating a unique atmosphere reminiscent of old Spain combined with a modern day California beach town.

A place to see and be seen, Hotel Californian offers a signature Mediterranean restaurant featuring the farm-to-table cuisine that Santa Barbara is so well known for. Sleek in design with bright and bold palettes, the restaurant remains unpretentious and is perfect for families to relax around the dinner table after a day spent in the sunshine.
