Reviews for Kimpton Canary Hotel
The Kimpton
The Kimpton Canary was a nice modern hotel, with a good restaurant, ambience, location, service, and rooms. The hotel was close to state street close to dozens of great restaurants. It was very calm no noise, could be a little cheaper, and the hotel was very clean.

The Best of Santa Barbara
A delightful stay --- an excellent small hotel. Everything was outstanding. Room was spacious and well designed (wonderful pillows). Service was excellent and the staff was professional and friendly. Rooftop pool was inviting and peaceful. Fitch & Fork restaurant was creative -- dinner was delicious! Convenient location. If the Canary Hotel is representative of other Kimpton Hotels, I want to stay at them all.
