Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort

fine for work conference

Large rooms no crowds good conference food

Cons some staff were inexperienced

Disappointing

Cons Baseboards are ugly and dirty room 337. Jacuzzi was broken. Facility needs a facelift and shows signs of neglect. Very expensive rooms for quality of hostel.

Amazing experience all around

At one of my best friends wedding this past weekend. At the Hilton which had majestic views and a pool that was perfect to beat the heat that weekend. But the commendable aspect was the service. Especially our Bartenders Nelson and Brian. With a no children stipulation, we came to let loose and they saw to it. Even when 140 of us swarned the bar, they organized the crowd into beer, wine or cocktail and then moved with purpose. Later, the bride ask for water at the bar and they had just ran out, thus snapped Nelson bolting from the bar and 1 min later, back with 4 waters. The effort by staff made it the most fun for many of us in a long time. Thx!

Excellent location. Recommend to do some updates to bath/showers and replace carpets throughout.

Not worth the money

The location, bell desk and room size were positive. Everything else was a disaster. Check in took forever, long line with one person. After 30 minutes they finally called for back up. Got to my room and the key didn't work. It's a huge resort, so I had to walk all the way back. Front desk doesn't answer the phone. The hallways aren't air conditioned, the thermostat read 80. Front desk personnel act like they are doing you a favor to check you in. My key finally worked for my room, but not the parking gate and no one answers that phone either, so now I need to request a refund on the additional $45 for visitor parking. Bathroom is run down, there was a hole in the wall, shower curtain had a tear, shower pressure was low. The closet access point was broken, so I could see through the wall. Mini fridge was barely cold with no adjustment option. The restaurant staff is minimal, we had to go looking for a server on a Monday afternoon, brought food with no utensils or salt & pepper. Seems like they are under staffed and poorly trained. Poor signage throughout the resort. The map is useless. The room numbers don't coincide with the floor you're on, they match the building#. Hilton corporate should audit this location and try to salvage their name. For the price, I expected more and won't be returning. The term "resort" hardly qualifies.
