Well, this is surprising. When we were compiling our Master List of 2012 Openings, we totally did not see that Hotel Indigo would be opening in Santa Barbara. But lo and behold, an is announcement out today says that our favorite boutique brand is opening in March in the former Hotel State Street.

Opening after a multi-million dollar renovation, Hotel Indigo Santa Barbara combines the historic Santa Barbara splendor with the architectural sophistication of modern design.The forty-one room boutique hotel has thirteen guest rooms featuring private outdoor gardens and fourteen guest rooms with views of the Riviera and mountains or urban scenes dotted by palm trees.

The Hotel Indigo Vancouver is such a tease. First, it was going to open May 6, then it was pushed to June 15. Now it looks like we won't get any hotel action until Christmastime: The hotel is accepting reservations after December 6.

We're Hotel Indigo fans—we named Hotel Indigo No. 1 for best WiFi in our 2011 HotelChatter Annual WiFi Report—so we are happy the brand is expanding. We're looking forward to having a free-wifi option in Vancouver. ]]> Jennifer Kester 2011-06-06T09:01:31-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/4/28/74153/4853

We've told you before Hotel Indigo San Diego's Parlor Suites, which give you a sweet view of Petco Park. But if you end up in a room that doesn't face the Padres action, or aren't staying at the hotel at all, you can still watch some ball.

For Wednesday's Padres vs. Braves game, we hung out at the hotel's Level 9 lounge, which, not coincidentally, is on the ninth floor. The outdoor lounge, which also contains a grassy area for pets and a reflective pool, has a prime spot facing the ball park. ]]> Jennifer Kester 2011-04-28T12:02:07-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/4/25/14581/6091 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/21888/hotelindigoglasgowbed.jpg" class="top"> <p>Well, that told us. No sooner had we expressed doubts that <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Indigo+Glasgow/local/4829"><b>Hotel Indigo Glasgow</b></a> would be opening on schedule last Monday, what with the website not accepting bookings and no staff around to answer the phone when we called to reserve, someone from the hotel told us <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/4/14/21388/9173/hotels/Hotel_Indigo_Glasgow_May_Not_Be_Picking_Up_The_Phone_As_Scheduled_On_Monday#1">we were wrong</a>, and that the hotel did in fact open as planned on 18 April. Our bad. Maybe having some staff on rezzie duty three days before opening might have solved that confusion. <p><strong>Anyways, a room tonight will set you back £129</strong>, whereas last time we checked, they were going for £115. It&#146;s an odd decision to up their prices, seeing as <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/MALMAISON+GLASGOW/local/2173"><b>Malmaison</b></a>, which is probably juliab 2011-04-25T15:22:41-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/4/25/111935/370

Hotel Indigo San Diego

The Hotel Indigo must be digging the California weather. The chain is looking to open its second Golden State location in Del Mar; its first is in San Diego.

You can make a reservation at the new Hotel Indigo Del Mar starting January 3 on its website. The newly branded hotel, which is taking over the Best Western Stratford Inn, will make its grand debut on January 2. ]]> Jennifer Kester 2011-04-25T12:32:05-05:00 Search HotelChatter string http://www.hotelchatter.com/search/
