The Leta Santa Barbara Goleta, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good
"I loved everything about my stay! The only complaint I had was that the patio area leading to the rooms could be a little more private. My room was right by the pool entrance, so people were frequently walking right outside my door. Other than that, everything was wonderful, and I really enjoyed my experience!"

"My best friend and I stayed and it became the cherry on our whole ice cream sundae trip through the Central Coast. We’ve always loved Solvang, yet had never stayed there having grown up in Lompoc. We’ve admired the Royal Copenhagen and finally had the opportunity to embrace the hospitality. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"
