Urban chic, Old World charm, contemporary art, and views of the American Riviera come together at the Hotel Andalucía, the only luxury boutique hotel in downtown Santa Barbara, California. Architecturally inspired by its namesake region in Spain, the five-story hotel features vaulted ceilings, decorative arches, and colorful tiles recalling the villas of the Costa del Sol.
It all begins in the lobby, furnished in Spanish style with wrought-iron chandeliers, and extends to the hotel’s terrace and rooftop pool, El Cielo, which also features an open-air mission-style fireplace. Crowning the tallest hotel in town, the roof affords spectacular views of Santa Barbara’s red-tiled roofs, the Pacific Ocean, the Channel Islands, the SantaYnez Mountains, and the Santa Barbara Mission.
