If you choose to book a stay at a 4-star hotel in Santa Barbara, you'll typically find loads of amenities to ensure you're relaxed, such as a pool, restaurant and gym. You can enjoy excellent service and upscale surroundings. Choose a 5-star hotel and you'll have access to a few more bells and whistles — think on-site spas, 24-hour front desk and opulent turndown services.
