The Riviera Beach House blends historic splendor with sophisticated design and offers artful lodging for style-minded clientele. As Santa Barbara’s closest hotel to the Amtrak train station, MOXI and the Funk Zone, with public bus and trolley stops at the front door and nearby bike and foot paths to the beach and Stearns Wharf, Riviera Beach House is the perfect car-free lodging choice.
The stylish, micro guestrooms are cleverly designed to make the most of limited space and include modern, space-efficient design touches and sleek, European-style wet bathrooms complete with collapsible glass wall showers and height-adjusting eight-foot shower heads. Enjoy an array of first-class amenities like free WIFI throughout the hotel, open-air lounges and an art gallery in partnership with local galleries that change on a seasonal basis.
Relax in the comfort of your pet-friendly hotel room, complete with a workstation, USB-media-ready TVs, and some with private garden patios. Then, immerse yourself in the Art Gallery and delight in contemporary Mexican cuisine steps from the lobby at Yelp’s number-one-ranked Los Agaves’ premier restaurant Santo Mezcal.
