This Inn is an amazing place to stay in the beautiful city of Santa Barbara. Beautiful rooms. We stayed in the Queen of Hearts room and loved soaking in the jacuzzi every night. The decor was tasteful and the bed was firm and comfortable. Best room I've stayed in period! The staff was wonderfully helpful and very genuine. The breakfast... more

We just returned from a weeklong vacation in California as we traveled from L.A. to San Francisco. One of our best stops was Santa Barbara -- what a paradise! We stayed at the Cheshire Cat Inn and couldn't have had a better experience at this wonderful property. Here's my amateur review: Property: Splendid turn of the century house in downtown... more

This was my first stay at a B&B and it was exactly what I imagined it would be. We stayed in the Queen of Hearts room which is a little cottage with its own private entrance. It had an in-room spa tub, a separate decent sized bathroom with shower and a private patio outside where we could have breakfast. There... more

This was our first stay at the Cheshire Cat Inn (and my first stay ever at a Bed and Breakfast). The Innkeepers were wonderful and very friendly. The Inn is a short walk from the many restaurants and shops on State St. Our Room (Alice's Suite) had a very nice balcony and was very comfortable. The room had several journals... more

Was going to be near Santa Barbara on business, so the wife and I decided to make a night of it. Found the Cheshire Cat online and booked a room. (It was a slow Wednesday night so I negotiated a significant discount.) We stayed in the Cheshire Cat Suite, a king room with a jacuzzi tub. The building itself is... more
