In Santa Barbara the Spanish architectural style is laid on pretty thick. So it makes a certain kind of sense that the Canary Hotel is named not for a particular shade of yellow but for the Canary Islands, offering a sort of metaphorical escape from the Spanish mainland. And in a very real sense it is an escape: for all Santa Barbara’s natural charms, from the mountains to the coast and the close proximity both to LA and to the Central Coast wine country, it’s been passed over by any sort of high-end boutique lodging, a situation that the Canary is no doubt intended to remedy.
It’s owned by the Kimpton group, known for their nation-spanning stable of stylish yet accessible boutique hotels — so you’re in experienced hands. Rooms are a quite sensible mix of the Spanish/Moroccan theme that the name implies and a full complement of contemporary-luxe comforts, including four-poster beds heaped high with pillows and extras like iPod docks, yoga mats, and DVD players. Spa treatments are available in-room, and for further unwinding there’s a rooftop pool terrace with wraparound views of the Santa Barbara scenery. Downstairs is the Coast Restaurant and Bar, and beyond, the upscale shopping on State Street.

What I liked:
Great location...really cool vibe there.
What the hotel could do better:
When we booked on Tablet our room came with an urban wine tour. At check in we asked about how that worked...we were told that that wasn't included in our package. After arguing with the lady at the desk I told her I would just find my email conformation and show her. Even after showing it to her and emailing it to her it was an issue. Really frustrating!! Not impressed with her customer service at all. Almost gave up on trying but glad I didn't...the wine tour on bikes was our favorite part of our stay.
