Fabulous breakfast with fresh, warm pastries.

No nonsense – just the truth

A charming escape with a personal touch. The intimate restaurant provides delicious meals, and the staff is genuinely attentive. Breakfast is freshly made, adding a lovely start to the day. The only drawbacks include limited amenities, like no TVs or refrigerators, which might not suit everyone. Prepare for a peaceful, unplugged experience.

staying at inn, a kirkwood collection was a delightful experience. the breakfast was personalized, which I absolutely loved! the cozy atmosphere really made it feel like a getaway. I wish I'd made it to the wine tasting, as that sounded fun.

would recommend

I enjoyed my stay at the Ballard Inn, appreciating the charming decor and attentive staff. The breakfast exceeded my expectations, but I found the parking situation slightly challenging. A wonderful experience that I would happily recommend to friends.

would stay here again

The classic king room had air conditioning, a cozy fireplace, and a private bathroom with free toiletries and a hairdryer. Breakfast was generous, featuring made-to-order eggs and fresh baked goods. Evenings included a wine tasting with local options, adding to the charming atmosphere.

the wi-fi in the room was spotty. but the complimentary breakfast was generous, we barely finished it. the staff was incredibly welcoming, offering us champagne on arrival. and the charcuterie board in the afternoon was a nice touch.

We had an amazing group getaway! Enjoyed great activities like the Santa Barbara Wine Country Cycling Tours and meals at the Gathering Table. The cozy atmosphere and delicious breakfast made our stay unforgettable. Don't miss the afternoon wine hour and the homemade cookies at turndown service!

One downside was the restaurant being closed for a private event, which left us without a dinner option.

great experience but room for improvement

The front desk staff provided outstanding service, making us feel truly welcome from the start. The comfy bed ensured a restful night's sleep in a very quiet atmosphere. Breakfast offered generous portions that exceeded our expectations during our short stay. We also enjoyed playing games in the cozy game room, which enhanced our relaxing experience.

While our overall experience was great, the dining options felt slightly limited during our brief visit.

Had an amazing time enjoying wine and cheese in the evenings, and the cozy game room was a bonus! The view from the Mountain room was stunning. Their complimentary Pellegrino water each day was a lovely touch.

Felt relaxed, no complaints.

I had the most peaceful stay with charming decor and a fantastic breakfast that was way too generous! The only bummer was the noise from the restaurant at night. Still, I can’t wait to return!

Couple's Weekend Getaway with Great Details

Had such an enjoyable time at this place, the breakfast was made to order and really hit the spot. One evening, we attended the wine and cheese hour and struck up a convo with some really friendly fellow guests, really felt like old friends.

It was a bit pricey but for the unique experience, it was worth it.

Charming room and great breakfast, but no elevator for the second floor.
