AboutHotel Californian
Just steps away from Santa Barbara’s waterfront, you’ll find the Hotel Californian, offering the perfect antidote to busy Los Angeles. Built in 1925 as part of the new wave Spanish Colonial Revival, the hotel has been sensitively reworked by sought-after British designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard. Step inside and a richly decorated Mediterranean oasis awaits. In keeping with its heritage, Bullard has created a characterful signature look with inviting modern Moorish influences.
