Top Goleta Hotel Reviews

Sideways Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay while in town. Staff were helpful and the room was clean, plenty of towels and an amazingly comfortable bed. I look forward to staying there again in the near future. Thank you!"

Hotel Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

"This property was beautiful. When we arrived to check in at the hotel, the first thing you noticed was how wonderful it smelled. The check in was seamless and the hotel staff were amazing. The room was color drenched in a beautiful dark green color which made it warm and cozy. The room was on the smaller side, but we were only staying for one night so that didn't matter to us. The hotel front entrance sits on a street that is closed off to cars and was a great way to walk around and check out the restaurants and shops. The boardwalk was a short distance walk down this street which was an added bonus. You could watch the sunset and the full moon rise over Santa Barbara. This hotel was a gem and would definitely stay here again."

Vinland Hotel and Lounge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly especially one very nice woman by the name of Raquel. I hope I spelled her name right. She was a wonderful lady that walked around near the restaurant and was very helpful with anything that we needed. I appreciated that she was there when the front desk was busy with other guests. She’s a great asset to the hotel team. I will be back again to book another stay thanks to Raquel and hopefully see the same friendly faces. Loved that the staff at the front desk was able to provide us with the extra pillows and blankets that we needed since it was pretty cold during our stay due the rain. Rooms were clean and bed was very comfy. Lots of space and balcony was real spacious. Location was just right and away from the crowded town so getting out of Solvang was easy with no traffic."
