While I probably was unfortunate with my stay at this hotel, I would still like to comment on my travel experience: Positives: 1. The location is fantastic 2. The hotel staff are generally pleasant 3. The breakfast is pretty ok, though not particularly memorable Negatives: 1. While my room had a brand new TV that had only been installed the... more

Seeing as there loads of review on this Hotel I thought I would keep my short. My family stayed here in August, 2 kids (10,7) and we only booked for 3 nights. But the place is fantastic, staff are really friendly, met some great people by the pool and it really does live up to its reputation as a great... more

This was my family's second visit to the property, and once again we were not disappointed. The grounds are beautifully maintained. The staff is just as friendly as they come -- everyone smiles and says hello as you pass. Twice we had to call for services -- once to have the in-room safe reprogrammed; another time to have a portable... more

We were looking for a base in the Santa Barbara area and frankly settled on Fess Parker's as it seemed to have the highest star rating. A good resort hotel - I would say a good 4 rather than 5 star resort. Nice pool, although slightly small pool area for size of resort. Breakfast fine, usual choices, reasonably priced although... more

Stayed at the Doubletree for 2 days. The setting is absolutely beautiful. Constantly saw landscaping and upkeeping of the large property. Luckily had a room facing the west side of the hotel, towards the parking lot. Didn't hear the train, probably cause the fan was constantly on in the room. The rooms were just ok. Nothing spectacular inside, but who... more

We took our first train trip up the coast so i searched around looking for hotels at our destinations. Since the first stop was SB, was looking for a spot that would be comfortable and close to the beach. I honestly cared more about my HHonors requirements so FPs was the choice. And what a good one it was. Upon... more

We had a very pleasant stay here. We were glad to have garden view rooms - as a sea view would also have been a view of quite a busy road. The room was large and comfortable and the rest of the hotel very attractive. Main critcism was breakfast - on our first morning the breakfast buffet was chaotic, with... more

We couldn't have been happier with the accomodations and service at this resort. What defines an exemplary experience for us is when the staff effortlessly meets the needs of their guests, and it's clear that the resort hires well, and keeps their employees happy. Everyone we encountered was courteous and accomodating. The vibe at this resort is a relaxed, laid... more

Santa Barbara has one of the best 4th of July fireworks shows I've seen and opted to come up for the holiday weekend. My boyfriend and I chose to stay here primarily since one of the nights was at my corporate rate and it's a fantastic location. For HHonors members, there is the option to e-check in in advance (like... more

This is s lovely property, great rooms with beautiful gardens. The service that we received from staff was fine. However, I think that every parent and their screaming child was at the hotel for the same three days that we were. We were upgraded to a garden view room and were outside enjoying the wine and cheese that we brought... more
