    We arrived very late and stayed only one night. Therefore we chose room 2 on the first floor (we had big luggage). Next time we wood choose another room. Room 2 is very small as well as the bathroom but very cosy and tasteful decorated. There is a closed connection door to the common rooms - clairaudient - but it wasn't a problem. Breakfast was excellent and fresh-made by Meggie. She was very kind and gave me advice as I had a sprained ankle. She also gave us a very good restaurant tip for a restaurant in Carmel.

    Overall, our stay at this location was superb. The beds were cozy and comfortable; the breakfast, scrumptious; and the overall proximity to surrounding attractions, well within walking distance.

    We stayed here the night of our engagement after driving down from Big Sur -- only wish was that we could have spent more time. A beautiful place, terrific breakfast and certainly a spot we'll try to visit again next time we're back in Santa Barbara!

    I've been doing weekends in Santa Barbara for many years, usually at the big name resorts, and this New Year's eve we decided to avoid "cattle herd" at the big resorts and instead stay at a B&B. Well, the Orchid Inn certainly is a hidden gem. Only 8 rooms, attentive staff, lovely quiet atmosphere. We stayed in room 8, and it was totally adorable, fireplace, comfy bed, quaint patio, we couldn't have asked for more. The entire inn is charming, warm, inviting and the owners and staff are impeccable. Breakfast in the beautiful dining room was a delicious way to start our day. We will be back for more!!

    On a recent trip to Santa Barbara we had the pleasure of staying at the Orchid Inn. It was a hidden gem - walking distance to the beach and State Sts. shops and eateries. The Inn was lovely, the room was charming and the service exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend to anyone traveling to Santa Barbara especially if you do not want to spend $300 per nite. A gem of a place.
