Stayed here at The Eagle Inn for a quick weekend trip to Santa Barbara. I loved our stay and didn't want to leave! Cleanliness - 5/5. As soon as we entered the room we could tell it had been throughly cleaned. The floors we had were tile or wood and my partner and I appreciated the care that went into prepping the room for us! Staff - 5/5. The staff was super helpful and kind and helped us with recommendations of the nice beaches nearby. Vibe - 100/10. I thought the room was super cute and cozy! It had everything we needed including shower caps and makeup wipes which I thought was a nice touch. There was also complimentary coffee and delicious homemade cookies! There was also complimentary breakfast that was delivered to our room. The only downside that I found was our room was underneath the staircase and could get noisy when trying to sleep in. However I just turned on the TV and was able to sleep through it. Overall I would 1000% come again to The Eagle Inn and stay here whenever I am in Santa Barbara :) read more

Rooms The layout in room selection is wonderful. I did what was considered the budget room and it was still cozy. Felt safe and felt comfortable. Location I just learned about this inn and it is a hidden gym for sure. You can't beat the location proximity to downtown/State Street. Food Breakfast came with our room and it was perfect not too much food not too little Overall I would 100% choose to stay here again. I usually stay in Summerlin however I really like this place. read more

The Eagle Inn - Entry - Hotels Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

The room we were given was literally right behind the front desk, and the layout was absolutely unacceptable for a hotel room. To get to our room, we had to walk through an extremely narrow hallway between two staff rooms with their doors constantly open. Every time we opened our door to leave the room, we were faced with open staff-room doors on both sides, with barely enough space to pass through. There was absolutely no sense of privacy. We could clearly hear the front desk conversations from inside our room, which made the room feel more like an extension of the reception area than an actual guest room. When we complained about the situation, the manager was extremely rude and unprofessional, which made the experience even more disappointing. If you are coming here for a holiday to relax and unwind, this is definitely not the place. The room setup and constant noise make it impossible to properly relax, and instead of leaving feeling refreshed, you leave the hotel with a headache and in a bad mood. Unfortunately, this experience was enough for us to know that we will never come back. read more

Wonderful place to stay in Santa Barbara. The stay included a complementary breakfast, afternoon cookies, and espresso drinks! We were very impressed by the dual shower heads and comfy bed. Short walking distance from the train station and Funk zone activities downtown. The front desk staff was very accommodating and made us feel welcome Would love to stay here again! read more

Pros: convenient location, friendly staff Cons: -old dirty carpets everywhere; hallways, rooms, stair. Breakfast tasted nasty, and the coffee served was terrible too. Rooms smell old and the sheets are low grade material. read more

We stayed here for Valentine's Day weekend and absolutely loved it. The service was excellent from start to finish, and the inn itself is beautiful, very vintage and charming with a thoughtfully antiqued style that gives it so much character. The bathroom was especially gorgeous and felt like a luxury experience. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, and we really appreciated the free bikes available for guests. We took them along the bike path to the beach, which was such a beautiful experience and made the stay even more memorable. Highly recommend if you're looking for a romantic and unique getaway. read more

Eagle Inn was perfect for us - 3 friends wanting a quick weekend getaway. The rooms had everything you may need. Yes, there are the luxury hotels - we can't beat them - but then there are the cozy, comfy, and small hotels that have heart! That's the Eagle Inn. The front desk guys were helpful, courteous and super friendly. Gave us directions, their recommendations for places to eat, and even provided me an umbrella for the rain. Eagle Inn location was perfect! We walked to the fun zone for wine tasting , State street for dinner and the beach was a super easy walk. The harbor, also walkable, and great for wine tasting , Brophys and views. Eagle Inn was very clean, breakfast was something I would make for myself (yummy), their outside seating was a treat - inside seating very nice. It reminded me of Europe quaint. In the lobby, they provided an Espresso machine and a Slushy machine, and my favorite, salt water taffy for days. I will return Eagle Inn, Santa Barbara. read more

I'll start with the cons because there aren't many. I would've preferred a room with an extended vanity area since my husband and I shared the room and it would've been easier to get ready simultaneously. But honestly, the Eagle Inn offers hospitality and accommodations that many other places can't match. The staff there are phenomenal. From the front desk to the kitchen staff to the cleaning staff, everyone is hardworking, kind, and accommodating. Breakfast every morning was made to order. There is a coffee station and water station in the lobby 24/7. It's far enough from State Street to enjoy peace and quiet, but the hustle and bustle is a short walk away. We were able to walk to all the restaurants we wanted and to Stearns Wharf. There are also options to pay to check in early, check out late, or even stay an extra day. I would say the location of the Eagle Inn with its amazing staff at such a reasonable rate can't be beat. read more

Enjoyed my stay for the weekend. My husband and I decided to spend our anniversary in Santa Barbara and this hotel provided the perfect experience for it. They offer special little additions for your room which is a nice touch such as champagne and chocolate covered strawberries! Both were just right! The king room features a jacuzzi which is very nice to relax. Our room also had a fireplace and 2 tvs to enjoy from any angle. The rooms was very spacious with lots of room. They offer in room breakfast but in general the hotel offers breakfast options downstairs. You can also use their bikes at no additional cost. The gentleman at the front desk provided us with excellent service! read more

What a small romantic/intimate inn located right next to Downtown Santa Barbara and the beach. I stayed from Friday to Monday with a buy two get one free day stay. Our stay was magnificent and the staff did a great job with everything. I came late, around 9:30 pm and checkin was smooth and accommodating. I ordered a red roses addition for $40 and honestly it was fresh flowers, plus you get to take home the vase. We walked into the room with a nice birthday card and flowers pedals on the bed. Each stay came with complimentary breakfast every morning. It's not a buffet style but a ticket system which is redeemable for one plate of food. Food was sizable and very good amount for breakfast. You are served in a dining room setting but also can get breakfast room serviced with no additional charge. Location wise, there is so much to do because it's literally like a 5 minute walk to downtown. The beach/wharf is only a 5-10 minute walk as well. Lastly there was no issue with parking since they have a lot. It may fill up from what I've heard but didn't have any issues during my whole stay. Would recommend if you're looking for an intimate/romantic stay in Santa Barbara. It's a quiet inn and you can hear the neighboring rooms footsteps but I didn't think it was that bad. read more

We had an excellent stay here. We came later in the evening and Peter was very helpful in welcoming our stay and giving us clear directions on checking in. Parking was already full in their lot by the time we got there, but there was parking right up front. (Make sure you read the parking limitations carefully). We had a large 2 bed downstairs next to the lobby. It was very spacious and comfortable With many sitting areas in there. I love that there are plenty of windows for sunlight to come in. There was also a microwave and refrigerator in the room. Breakfast the next morning was in a room with someone taking our orders. Each breakfast was individually prepared and was delicious. I loved the atmosphere in the dining room. There is also a sophisticated coffee/hot chocolate machine with coffee roasted from Beacon coffee, Ventura. There is also a purified water machine outside that can be used at all times. Bike rentals were free and included a basket and locks. They also had helmets if you need it. Katie was very helpful in helping us set up the bikes. There are plenty of bike paths in Santa Barbara. You can also bike to the zoo. I will definitely come back again. read more

I've stayed at many hotels throughout my life and 3 in the last week and I have to say, hand downs , Peter provides the best guest service I have ever experience! He was super enthusiastic when I checked in. He hyped the experience for me and took care of a minor challenge I had! He was respectful, kind and accommodating! Dear Eagle Inn: you have a gem with Peter! Besides the customer service, the hotel is absolutely charming! You can rent bikes and ride them to state street or the pier. Both very close. The rooms are spacious and the beds are so comfortable ! read more

My wife and I absolutely loved The Eagle Inn and would recommend it highly. We planned a quick overnight trip just to get out of town (Santa Barbara is one of our favorite getaway spots). The Inn is in a very quiet neighborhood just a couple of blocks from the beach. Room was very comfortable with an updated bathroom. The people were friendly and helpful. I only wish we could have stayed longer but we will be back read more

I wouldn't stay here again but my husband would. Here is my review. Loud neighbors all hours of night and early morning. Why do people do this? Moist room, so weird. Never in my life have I been both cold yet damp from humidity inside a room. Water so soft I couldn't tell if the soap was rinsed off me or not. The bed was too soft and lumpy, felt like the mattress was made from a pile of wadded up towels or something. The towels were scratchy and they didn't have fresh single use toiletries, they had shampoos and soaps anchored to the wall which is not hygienic in my opinion. The price is expensive. The hotel was cool because I love old things but it wasn't comfortable for my preference. The free breakfast and coffee was nice. read more

Just a lovely inn. Everything about it was wonderful. The room was beautiful and well-appointed and the staff was friendly and top notch. Great location two blocks from the beach and a few blocks to town on a quiet street. Highly recommend this property for your stay in Santa Barbara. read more

Boyfriend booked us a hotel during our visit to Santa Barbara for a wedding. Reminds me of Spanish style houses. There is a parking lot for hotel guests luckily as I heard other hotels nearby charges parking/valet. Boyfriend had booked the 2nd floor with a tub but upon check in, I guess that room was no longer available so they had upgraded us to a casita with a tub. Not complaining since the casitas were more private and didn't share walls with other guests. I loved that the hotel also provides complimentary breakfast that can also be delivered to your door. The casitas were names vs room numbers. We stayed at the San Miguel. Reminds me of mini houses which were cute. There was a mini kitchen area with microwave and mini fridge, 2 person hot tub in the bedroom and a nice shower area. The showers had double heads. There was AC and television. The stay was comfortable for the night. It was quiet and we were able to sleep well. Breakfast was delivered earlier than our time we requested. Overall it was a nice and cozy stay. Check out was easy and fast. read more

Nice spot close to the beach and clean hotel. However walls are very thin and you could hear everything from upstairs guests and activity in the hallway/entrance. Hard to sleep the whole night and a nonideal hotel room read more

What an amazing experience!! Perfect location and Skye is an absolute gem!!! Love visiting old stomping grounds and be welcomed with such warmth! Thank you and we will be back! read more

The Eagle Inn is well situated--close to the beach, the Funk Zone, and easily walkable to State Street. We booked a king room with a fireplace and jacuzzi. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The full breakfast that came with the room was delicious--a series of rotating options that are made to order. The staff was friendly and helpful. We would stay here again. read more

Located in a residential neighborhood not far from dining and shopping, the Eagle Inn is very cozy and relaxed, reasonably close to the ocean. The casita was clean, well maintained with a nice walk-in shower and soaking tub, and attached kitchenette. Breakfast in the small restaurant on property was included in the accommodations and it was tasty. It's advertised as beachside which is a bit of a stretch (it's about two blocks) but definitely within walking distance. Recommended. read more

We stayed here just for a night but it was amazing. Beautiful room and balcony. Very very clean. The breakfast in the morning was a nice touch as well. They just got a new fancy coffee machine. I was able to get a cafe mocha my favorite whenever I wanted. The staff was so friendly. This hotel is in the perfect location to cruise around town and parking was not an issue! Highly recommend! I know we will be back. read more

5 stars to Peter! He had a bunch of local SB spots for us to visit, but I had already had an itinerary set up. Next time I will follow his itinerary haha. I loved this inn. It's the first time I been to a bed n breakfast place. Breakfast arrived promptly with just a knock. Bring a couple of lush bath bombs and you are good :) Everything is super close and walkable!! I will definitely return to this place when I am back in Santa Barbara to stay :) read more

Beautiful 1929 Hotel very close to beach but in quiet neighborhood. Peter at the front desk is amazing. Knowledgeable, professional, and friendly, he was a significant factor in making our stay enjoyable. Peter is definitely an asset to the property! Breakfast was very good with complimentary cookies in the afternoon and endless taffy candies in the lobby. Enjoyed the free safe parking. Complimentary Coffee machine available in lobby to make wide variety of coffee types. Come to a smaller hotel and get better service but be walking distance to everything Room was big with full kitchen. This will be our regular stay in Santa Barbara from now on read more

Oh, I would stay here again and again. Peter the manager is fastidious and exemplary. He printed out free gym passes for us. He texted daily to see what he could do to make our stay even more comfortable. The location is so perfect and quaint. We were in walking distance to the beach, boats, cruises, kayaking and the wharf. A+++++ read more

A group of 8 over 65 year olds stayed here over the weekend and we all thought this was a great place to stay, not only based upon the location and price but because it was just a cute and fun place. It's only about 3 blocks from the ocean in somewhat of a residential neighborhood (we were told it used to be an apartment building) and not far from the pier, and the price to stay was very fair based on prices of other hotels in the area. Each room was a bit different and nice, the beds very comfortable, a desk to do needed online work and the shower water easily adjustable. Breakfast is part of the room cost and the best part is that one could order off a menu, so it wasn't like other places where there's a mini-buffet. Another fun thing is that on a table near the front desk was either candy or cookies, depending upon the time, and they certainly went fast. Both of the front desk people were friendly, helpful, answered questions, gave us not only advice but suggestions on where to eat for lunch and dinner. The only reason I debated between giving this 4 or 5 stars is because on our last night there the WiFi went out, and a couple of us were counting on using it either than night or the morning before we left. Having said that, we all would definitely come back and recommend this to others vacationing in Santa Barbara. read more

I looked all around for a spot to stay in Santa Barbara for a night and came across The Eagle Inn. I couldn't be more pleased with an inn, as coming from SOCAL Orange County where every inn is disgusting This inn is located in a section of about 5 inns... they offered one of the cheaper prices which is why I picked it! A cute and quaint place the eagle inn is! Cleanliness... 5/5 Coming into it it smelt freshly cleaned and looked in perfect order as it should be. Bathroom... 5/5 Nothing is better than a squeaky clean bathroom and the eagle inn reached the expectation! They also have a GREAT water pressure system along with big bottles of soap and shampoo! Room size... 3.5/5 Not the biggest nor the smallest for around 350$ a night Food & cafe... 4/5 TONY!! It was Tony's service that carried the experience! The food is cute and simple, and they offer a super cool coffee machine that I never seen before! Affordability... 4/5 Definitely in a tourist area that is an additional arm and leg but competing with other inns and stays near by, the eagle inn beats their competitors with being more affordable while offering the expected necessities of a stay. Overall a fun and safe stay! read more

So straight up the place is nice. Spanish colonial style looks great. The facility is clean. Very clear the staff have been well trained in customer service. They are great. Lots of little sitting areas to enjoy on the property. Free coffee always easily available. My only issue was the price. I know it is in a popular location and I was there on desirable nights and I do understand supply and demand but $450 per night Fri night and Sat night? Sheesh! A free water bottle in the room and cookies by reception were nice but did not fill the cost gap for me. read more

Cute inn conveniently located with a decent breakfast and coffee and candy available all day. A few minor nits - Soundproofing was a bit lacking (could hear snoring from the room upstairs) but overall it was pretty quiet. Toiletries had an odd feel - soap left the skin pretty slick so it felt like you still had soap on you even after rinsing for quite a bit. Overall though we had a great stay. read more

The Eagle Inn is a fantastic cute boutique hotel you have to try. Stayed to celebrate a bday and the staff made sure the room was decorated and the casitas are very cute and comfortable. I will definitely return for another visit to use their bikes and the fresh baked cookies of course. read more

We stayed for two nights in the Santa Catalina Casita for our anniversary. We really enjoyed our stay at The Eagle Inn and will be back. Our room was super clean with a lot of amenities including plates, glassware, silverware and robes. The bed was extremely comfortable and towels were plentiful. The hotel accommodated a last minute request for their romance package which was set up in our room on check in. The friendly staff provided great tips for local restaurants and directions. We are looking forward to our next stay! read more

Had a wonder stay at the Eagle inn for my wedding. We chose the eagle inn mostly due to its boutique bnb vibe, but as well as the vast amount of positive reviews. Parking was very easy each night and the staff was friendly, and communicated daily to make sure we were happy. The casita we stayed in was spacious and clean. The tub and fireplace made it incredibly cozy to wind down after a long day. The hotel gives a complimentary stainless steel water bottle for you to reuse at their water refill station during your stay. I try make sustainable choices whenever i can, and that was so refreshing to see. We ate the hotel breakfast one morning, and it was incredibly delicious. We had the option to get it delivered to the room, or to go to their breakfast area. We chose the later. Our order was taken almost immediately. Fresh fruit and orange juice was served around the room prior to us getting our food. I was really happy with the vegan option. It was fresh veggies sautéed with a slight seasoning and served with an English muffin. The hotel location is great. It's tucked in a neighborhood and is a short walk to be near the water or state street. Santa Barbara hotels can be pretty pricey, so this was a nice option that was slightly more affordable than most. Seemed to attract an older crowd, which was fine by us since it was quiet at night. Highly reccomend for anyone staying in Santa Barbara, especially if you're getting married at the courthouse. read more

My husband and I stayed here for our babymoon in Santa Barbara and it was couldn't have gone better! We stayed in the Santa Rosa casita and loved the two person bathtub, cozy fireplace, kitchenette and balcony. The check in experience was great - Peter was very attentive and kind and explained the breakfast offerings to us (which were delicious and conveniently got delivered to our room). We didn't get to try the fresh baked chocolate chip cookies or ride the bikes but plan to do that on our next visit. There's a latte machine in the lobby that was great, it's located just a short walk from State Street and several restaurants in Santa Barbara and there was ample parking. 5/5 experience! Thank you Peter & Eagle Inn staff! read more

What a beautiful little place to stay! My husband and I stayed over the weekend and we had such a good experience! Everything is clean, you get a coffee machine in the room and espresso machine outside that you can use at all times, tea is available and cookies after 3pm :). You get bikes as well and we went on a Santa Barbara tour, the bikes were fully operational. The breakfast was simple but nice! The staff is very kind, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended and we will be coming back :) read more

I had no trouble finding parking when I arrived or any of the four nights I was there. The man who checked me in was helpful with a map and took my suit case up to my room which was appreciated since there isn't an elevator. My room was nice and they included eye masks and ear plugs which was appreciated since the birds started chirping by 5am. Breakfast was good, but the menu says item one OR item two OR item three, etc. I get that they don't want you to have two big breakfasts, but I would've liked the Honey Nut Cheerios as part of my breakfast, but it was listed as a separate item so didn't seem like I could do that. I was working while I was there and they offered to let me work in the breakfast room while my room was being cleaned. I think my sheets got changed every day or two which is unusual in hotels now. Appreciated the filtered water and loved the chocolate chips cookies they had out every afternoon. They have beach towels and chairs you can borrow. I wasn't sure how the location would be, but it was very convenient to the Funk Zone (less than 10 min walk) which had lots of restaurants. Stearns Wharf was maybe a 15 min walk. read more

Recently stayed here for a kayaking/surfing trip. The group I was with rented the whole place out. The entire place was just adorable. Each room is slightly different. My room was one of the smaller ones but the shower had twin heads! That was so much fun. I also took a bath in one of the casitas (they decorated it with rose petals, so cute!). There is a Lush a couple blocks on State Street and I highly recommend going there before using the jets! Breakfast was made to order and delicious! I'm 1000% coming back on a romantic weekend get away or with some girlfriends! read more

We recently got married in Santa Barbara and we used The Eagle Inn for our room block. It's such a cute little hotel with a ton of character, and we loved that it had a variety of rooms and casitas, so there was something for all our guests. We dealt with Paul in the months leading up to our wedding and he was super responsive and helpful, and made the reservation process a breeze. All his staff were wonderful too! Our guests loved the hotel, and it was great to meet everyone at breakfast on the little patio each morning. The blueberry pancakes I had the morning after the wedding were so light and fluffy! We got a casita because we were having hair and makeup people coming to help us all get ready and it totally fit the bill, it was spacious enough and felt nice. We wanted the Santa Barbara Casita because it was the best one for our purposes but unfortunately it was already booked by someone not in our wedding. That was really disappointing because it had the best natural light for hair and makeup, but we got the Santa Rosa Casita instead and that worked out great. We just had to set up the makeup chair on the balcony because it was too dark inside and we got a little chilly but it all worked out. We cranked up the fireplace inside the casita and it was great. There was even a separate little kitchenette room that we were able to hang my dress in so my then-fiance wouldn't see it. We realized at 4:45pm the day before the wedding (15 mins before the rehearsal started) that my veil had not made it down to Santa Barbara so we had to get it overnighted to arrive the next morning, but it was cutting it close for the hair people to put it in my hair as they would be arriving at 9am. The front desk staff (I think her name was Quinn) was so great and accommodating, and had someone bring it to our casita as soon as it arrived the next morning. Like the second UPS delivered it, someone knocked on our door with the veil. Awesome. We did our first look photos at The Eagle Inn and they turned out great! I will attach a few to this review. If you're thinking about choosing The Eagle Inn for your wedding, definitely go for it! We are so pleased we chose The Eagle Inn and are probably going to stay here every time we come back to Santa Barbara. read more
