Loved the breakfast room and the evening wine reception.

Air conditioning was a bit weak and the room seemed fairly humid.

Super hôtel de charme et calme. Le personnel est très attentionné car nous avions des problèmes pour charger nos appareils et ils ont proposé de les prendre et les charger à la réception. Petit déj limité mais très bon, verre de vin offert en fin de journée et lait chaud et cookies avant d'aller dormir, tout cela au coin du feu :) Nous avons adoré l'ambiance de cet hôtel et nous le recommandons vivement

"Service meets old-school charm"

10.0

The Upham, where I've stayed on and off for almost thirty years, remains a wonderful, homey, gorgeous and humble property. What sets them apart is service: I had to stay for several non-consecutive nights for the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and beyond the excellent service for those visits, they let me be a laptop hobo on the off days and let me change into my red carpet clothes for evening events. Further, when a filmmaker canceled on us at the last minute, they cheerfully reversed the charge. They didn't have to do that but extended themselves for me anyway. Truly a pleasure, and we recommend the property highly.

Loved the history of this place, very quaint, gardens were beautiful and the light breakfast was nice. The room was comfortable and liked the robes. Nicely furnished.

We had 2 rooms, it was hard to find in the dark, staff should walk guests there, as the map was super confusing. One room (suite) smelled very damp the entire time we were there. Parking could be tricky at times.
