Santa Barbara suites & connecting rooms
Santa Barbara has 690 bookable suites across 45 hotels, including 2 connecting rooms.
Connecting rooms are not a room type a hotel can create on demand: the door either exists between two specific rooms or it does not. That is why the count above matters more than a star rating, and why we book the pair together rather than two rooms and a request at the desk.

How connecting rooms work →Santa Barbara questions
Which Santa Barbara hotels have connecting rooms?
Santa Barbara has 2 confirmed connecting-room combinations, and the most of them are at Mar Monte Hotel, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, Best Western Plus Santa Barbara, The Franciscan Hotel, The Steward, Santa Barbara, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel.
How big is a two-bedroom suite in Santa Barbara?
A typical two-bedroom suite here is 399 square feet, and the largest suite in the city is 1,885. For comparison, a standard hotel room is around 325.
Are resort fees included in the price shown?
The nightly rate excludes them; the total at checkout includes every fee before you enter a card. On a connecting pair you pay the fee on both rooms, which we show as one line rather than as a surprise at the desk.
Can I book two rooms and just ask for a connecting door?
You can ask, and the desk will note it, but a request is not a reservation — the door is assigned at check-in and given away first when the hotel is full. Booking a confirmed pair is the difference between a preference and a guarantee.
What is the difference between connecting and adjoining rooms?
Connecting rooms share a private interior door, so you move between them without entering the corridor. Adjoining rooms are merely next to each other. Hotels use the words interchangeably; we do not, and every listing says which one you are getting.
