We chose this hotel very last minute and we found a hidden gem! Location is excellent, literally 3 minutes walking distance from the beach. We absolutely loved the Spanish revival interior (floors and doors are gorgeous!), and the delicious breakfast!
We just left but we are already planning our next trip to Santa Barbara to stay at this amazing hotel!
The Eagle Inn is a jewel. It is on a quiet street but easily walkable to the beach. It has an old world feel with beautiful tiles, but is very well kept up. The front desk staff were very attentive. The breakfast is freshly made and it is lovely to sit out on their terrace.
Great location to downtown, restaurants, bars, the beach. FREE parking!!!!!! OMG this is such a plus these days! EXCELLENT complimentary breakfast. Ceiling fans in the room so you don't have to run the a/c to circulate air in the room (quite frankly every hotel should have ceiling fans). Overall, a great motel. We would stay here again.
staff was so helpful and friendly. comfy beds, clean hotel, easy parking and we really loved their fresh breakfasts. It was nice touch to have access to free water, coffee, tea and cookies all day long. GREAT Location - walking distance to so much. Santa Barbara is beautiful and great restaurants. I would definitely stay here on another visit.
The Eagle Inn is located in quiet, and very pretty, residential area. It is a short distance to the ocean and relatively eastywalking distance to many restaurants, shops, and museums downtown. When I visit Santa Barbara again, I'll certainly try to stay at The Eagle Inn.
The hotel is quiet and close to the Main Street . Lots of parking . But the hotel seemed to be over priced 400 a night . Breakfast was not worth eating . Staff at breakfast seemed like they didn’t want to work . You really can’t eat the breakfast you have to go out .
Beautiful Mission style Inn. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. Hot made to order breakfast included. The Inn was close to the beach and many restaurants and the wharf. I would definitely return.
Great stay at Eagle Inn! The location is awesome and the place is clean and comfortable. The staff were the highlight—super friendly, helpful, and always happy to assist with anything we needed. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Santa Barbara
The room was great. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony. Breakfast was very good and the staff were all very pleasant and helpful. We highly recommend The Eagle Inn to anyone visiting Santa Barbara.
