Hotel Policies
Deposit Policy: All reservations require a credit card deposit of the first night plus tax due at the time of booking.
Taxes and Fees: Rates subject to change. Room rates do not include:
12% Santa Barbara County occupancy tax.
$3/Night Local TBID fee
$2.50 + tax daily utility fee
$25 + tax daily amenity fee
Cancellation Policy: Reservations must be canceled 72 hours prior to arrival to avoid a penalty of one night room and tax. Any reservation that has a change of dates within 72 hours of check-in will be subject to penalty.
Incidental Hold Policy: A valid credit card is required at check-in. An incidental hold will be placed on your credit card at check-in and released upon check-out. We do not recommend Debit Cards for use since this hold will freeze funds in the checking account.
Check-In: Guaranteed after 3pm. Early check-in opportunities may be assessed on the day of arrival, based on availability.
Check Out: Keys must be returned by 11am. Late check-out up to 1pm is based on availability and carries a fee of $30. After 2pm, the guest is subject to the full nights room rate + tax.
Lobby Hours: Front Desk staff is available from 7am - 10pm. If you plan for an after-hours arrival, we will make check-in arrangements with you directly via the phone number and email address provided at booking. Emergency after-hours help can be reached at 805.344.0104.
Quiet Hours: Please be mindful of quiet hours in common areas from 9pm - 9am.
Family Policy: While Hotel Ynez welcomes guests of all ages, the hotel caters to an adult clientele. We ask that all guests carefully monitor their children so as not to affect the experience of our other guests. Please note: guests must be 21+ to access the pool.
Occupancy Policy: All rooms have a maximum double occupancy. We do not provide any rollaways, cribs, or pullouts. Non-adherence to this policy may result in a forfeiture of your reservation.
Pet Policy: Well-behaved dogs are welcome. Dogs are the only pets permitted at the hotel. A $50 pet fee applies per dog. Limit 2 per room. Dogs must be on leash at all times and accompanied by owner at all times. Dogs must not be left alone in rooms at any time during your stay. Dogs are not allowed in the pool. Failure to adhere to these policies could result in a $50 fee per incident.
Groups Policy: Any guest or group reserving five or more rooms is subject to a separate agreement and cancellation policy.
Smoking Policy: Our hotel is a non-smoking facility and smoking is not permitted in the rooms or on patios. Smoking is restricted to the designated smoking area by the guest parking lot. Smoking inside could result in a damage assessment of up to $250.
Parking Policy: Limited on-site parking is exclusively for hotel guests and available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Hotel Ynez is not responsible for any damage or theft to vehicles.
