Historical yet disappointing
The hotel as a whole was pretty run down. It has an authentic historic feel and with additional investment it has the potential to be a remarkable destination and stay while in Santa Barbara.

My husband and I sometimes stay at the Upham. This time around I was offered an upgrade and I happily took it. My room was one of the bungalows and it was so charming. I had a private sitting area outside of my room but opted to sit on the lawn because it is just so pretty. I also had a fireplace in the room and windows all around. I The grounds are picture perfect and love watching the bluebirds in the morning drinking from the fountain and the bunnies in the afternoon nibbling on the grass. There are shaded areas in which to sit and relax or full sun spots if that is your desire. Happy hour is nice as they serve wine and cookies. In the morning I usually head over to the reception area for complimentary coffee and fruit. The staff is always helpful and warm. They truly help to make our stay memorable each and every time. I love entering from the front so that I can take a moment and smell the roses that line the stairs. The area that surrounds the Upham is lovely and some of the Victorian homes are just gorgeous. There are restaurants, shops, galleries and a museum within walking distance. My only wish is that they had bicycles for their visitors to rent. Having said that I would recommend the Upham to anyone who loves undeniable charm and staying somewhere with a bit of history surrounding them. There is nothing not to like about the Upham. It is the perfect tucked away spot off of State street and we thoroughly enjoy it.

We LOVE this property! Happy Hour In their garden is so relaxing. Only one complaint: Room 44 needs a NEW queen sized bed. The current one has seen better days. Otherwise, put this property on your Must Stay List!
