Driving down from SFO in February to visit the Reagan Library and looking for nice hotel for a few nights to explore Santa Barbara and the wine area as well. Is there any such lodging?
Much obliged.

There are plenty of nice hotels in Santa Barbara if you can afford them.
My wife and I stayed at the Sandyland in Carpenteria Which is OK if you need a quiet place to sleep that is affordable.

It's only 10 minutes from SB and much cheaper.
I posted this after last Easter:
"I made a last-minute trip to Santa Barbara for Easter weekend. Found this jewel of an inn, just 1/2 block from the waterfront:

The rooms are newly renovated, so have granite countertops, new furniture, etc. I booked Easter Sunday for just $119/night plus tax, for a king bed suite (with extra space and pullout sofa) including a continental breakfast, free wi-fi, and free parking.
It really is the cutest little place. Set up like a motel, where you drive right up to your room."
My wife recently stayed at the Canary Hotel, which is downtown and walking distance from a plethora of restaurants.
She loved the place, wanted to take home some of the fixtures there. http://www.canarysantabarbara.com/hotel/index.html
Check out the photos of the Hotel.
The Reagan Library is in Simi Valley, the wine country is the Santa Ynez Valley. I'm not clear from you're post if you're looking for a night in Simi as well? Simi is a little less than 90 mins drive to Santa Barbara.
