Montecito Inn

Located just two blocks from Butterfly beach, on a boutique-lined street off of Hwy 101, the Montecito Inn is a unique hotel located just steps from some of Santa Barbara's best dining and shopping. Originally financed in 1927 by actor-producer-director Charlie Chaplin, this hotel is surrounded by million-dollar estates and the San Ysidro foothills. Conceived as a getaway for Chaplin and his friends, the Inn is now filled with reminders of its Golden Era heritage. Guests are served a complimentary, continental breakfast down in the lobby. After that, they might want to relax by the pool, sit in the whirlpool spa, or enjoy a morning workout in the onsite fitness facility. The Inn offers complimentary use of bicycles to explore the area, or guests can just hop on the trolley to the pier, the mission, and beyond.
Completely smoke-free guestrooms are decorated using classic patterns and furnishings, and warm tones.  The bathrooms are adorned with hand-painted tiles. Though modest in size, the rooms are comfortable and equipped with all modern conveniences, like a flat- screen TV and high-speed Internet access. A ceiling fan circulates the air and provides cooling. Downstairs, the popular Montecito Café offers California Nouveau cuisine, while the Bar offers a special appetizer menu, fine wines, and cocktails. Gourmet in-room dining is also offered through room service.
