• In the heart of Santa Barbara, just a short walk to shopping, theatre, and fine dining, El Prado Inn is your perfect starting point for historic and scenic excursions. With El Prado Inn as your "home base" in Santa Barbara, everything is within your reach. You are only moments away from viewing the internationally renowned exhibits of the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, seeing Broadway caliber stage productions at the historic Granada, Arlington, and Lobero Theatres, and enjoying any of the myriad dining establishments Santa Barbara is known for. You are truly in the center of all the South Coast has to offer.
  
  While staying with us, save a day to see what Santa Barbara is famous for. Our stunning architecture is highlighted by both the Queen of the Missions, and our County Courthouse. It is rumored that these are the most photographed buildings in our country, and they are less than a mile from our convenient location. Or, if you prefer, build your own castle on the endless miles of our towns beaches. or better still, how about a refreshing walk through the Santa Barbara botanic gardens, nestled in the foothills of the American Riviera ®.

Our courteous front desk staff will help you plan your stay in Santa Barbara, from the time you call to inquire for reservations.
