Detailed Reviews: Best Hotel near Sacramento — 20 Properties Rated & Reviewed
1. Governors Inn Hotel
The Vibe
This 3-star spot near the freeway works best for quick stopovers. The 8.8 cleanliness and 8.7 comfort scores beat expectations for this price bracket. Guests consistently call out the easy freeway access to Golden 1 Center and the 24-hour front desk as major perks.
What You Actually Get
Rooms come standard with the basics—but the real draw is the outdoor pool, fitness center, and that free airport shuttle running from early morning until 10:30 PM. Continental breakfast is included, and private parking is available on-site. The $200 credit card deposit requirement catches some off-guard, so have a card ready. The 7.8 location and Wi-Fi scores sit lower than other options on this list, making this a better fit if you’re passing through rather than exploring downtown.
Choose this if: You need reliable airport transport and don’t plan to spend time walking around downtown Sacramento.
2. Embassy Suites by Hilton Sacramento Riverfront Promenade
The Vibe
A 4-star standout with a killer 9.6 location score—right on the Sacramento River and steps from Old Town. The 9.4 cleanliness and comfort scores are the highest of any property in this list. Guests rave about the staff, who hand out chocolates to kids and check families in early when possible.
What You Actually Get
Spacious suites with separate living areas, an indoor swimming pool, fitness center, and on-site restaurant. Pets are allowed (charges may apply), and there’s private parking and an elevator. The 8.6 value score is the only number that dips—rates here run higher than budget picks. But for a riverfront location that guests describe as “excellent customer service” consistently, the premium makes sense. The evening reception is still operational, per guest QA.
Choose this if: Location and cleanliness are your top priorities—this scores 9.4 on both, the highest in this list.

3. Holiday Inn Sacramento Downtown-Arena by IHG
The Vibe
A 3-star Holiday Inn sitting at the edge of Old Sacramento with a solid 9.2 location. The 7.8 value score reflects that rates lean higher for what you get inside the room. But the included breakfast gets consistent praise, and the adjacent shopping mall (with a recently remodeled cinema) makes this a practical choice.
What You Actually Get
Outdoor swimming pool, fitness center, on-site restaurant, and laundry facilities. Valet parking runs $28/day—worth noting since street parking downtown is limited. Pets are welcome with a $75 non-refundable fee. The 8.6 cleanliness and comfort scores are standard for this class, but the 8.0 Wi-Fi is weaker than the hostel across town. Groups booking 6+ rooms face different policies, so keep that in mind for larger gatherings.
Choose this if: You want a chain hotel with a good breakfast and easy access to the historic district.

4. HI Sacramento Hostel
The Vibe
Housed in a beautiful Victorian, this 2-star hostel punches way above its class. The 9.3 Wi-Fi and 9.1 value scores are the best in this entire 20-property list. Guests call it “the best hostel in downtown” and praise the proximity to everything. Private rooms are available if dorms aren’t your thing.
What You Actually Get
Free Wi-Fi that actually works (9.3 rating—better than any hotel here), private parking on-site, and linens and towels provided. Check-in closes at 10:30 PM, so plan accordingly. The premium double room uses shared bathrooms on each floor; book the private Queen room if you want your own. The credit card must match the name on the photo ID, so no booking for friends on your card. No pets allowed, and groups of 5+ rooms have different policies.
Choose this if: You’re a solo traveler or budget backpacker who values location and reliable internet over frills.
5. Oasis Inn Sacramento- Elk Grove
The Vibe
A quiet 2-star outpost in the Elk Grove area with a “repeat guest” badge—people come back here. The 8.5 cleanliness leads the property, and the quiet street view gets mentioned. There’s even a resident cat guests have grown fond of. Good value for budget-conscious travelers with a car.
What You Actually Get
Rooms come with microwaves and refrigerators. Free parking is available on-site, and laundry facilities are handy for longer stays. The 7.4 Wi-Fi is weak—don’t plan on heavy streaming. No deposit required (per guest QA), and cash is accepted. Early check-in is available upon request but comes with a fee. The Sacramento Zoo is about 20 minutes away by car. No pets allowed.
Choose this if: You need a cheap, quiet place with free parking and don’t mind being outside the downtown core.
6. Hyatt Regency Sacramento
The Vibe
A 4-star Hyatt right across from the Capitol building. The 9.0 staff and cleanliness scores are solid, but the 7.8 value score hints that you’re paying for the address. Guests consistently praise the comfortable beds and the on-site bar. The pool is open but the hot tub is currently closed due to restrictions.
What You Actually Get
Outdoor heated pool, fitness center, restaurant, and bar. Breakfast is available for an extra €18. Pets are allowed on request with possible charges. No smoking rooms available anywhere in the hotel. The 7.9 Wi-Fi is mediocre for a 4-star. Parking is available on-site. The location is unbeatable for accessing the Capitol, museums, and downtown offices, but if you’re here for the arena, the Kimpton Sawyer is closer.
Choose this if: Government business or Capitol access is your primary reason for visiting Sacramento.
7. Delta King Hotel
The Vibe
This is not a regular hotel—it’s a permanently moored 1920s riverboat on the Sacramento River. The 9.4 location score ties it for top location honors. Guests rave about the on-board Pilothouse Restaurant (“excellent” is the recurring word). The 7.1 Wi-Fi is the weakest in this list, so plan to disconnect. Worth it for the experience alone.
What You Actually Get
Air-conditioned staterooms with river or city views. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Valet parking runs $25/night with in-and-out privileges. Elevators go up to the third level where the lobby and restaurant are; mobility-accessible rooms are on lower decks. City View Queen Staterooms sit on decks 4 or 5. No pets allowed. Children 13+ are charged as adults. The restaurant earns consistent praise, making this a solid dinner option even if you’re not staying overnight.
Choose this if: You value character over Wi-Fi and want to sleep on a historic riverboat in Old Sacramento.
8. Hyatt House Sacramento Airport – Natomas
The Vibe
One of the top-scoring properties in this guide with an 8.9 overall. The 9.3 cleanliness and 9.3 location (for airport access) make this a no-brainer for flyers. Guests say they’ll “definitely stay again when flying out of Sacramento.” The shuttle runs 24/7 on request, and there’s a bar on-site.
What You Actually Get
Free airport shuttle available 24/7 (request at check-in). Complimentary parking for overnight guests. Outdoor pool, fitness center, restaurant, and a good breakfast included in the rate. A $75 damage deposit is required at check-in. The 9.0 Wi-Fi is excellent—among the best in this guide. No pets allowed. Late checkout available until noon, which is generous compared to 11 AM standard elsewhere.
Choose this if: You have an early flight and want a clean, reliable hotel with a breakfast included before you go.
Check Tonight’s Price for Hyatt House Sacramento Airport – Natomas →
9. Hyatt House Sacramento-Midtown
The Vibe
A converted building (guests suspect it was originally a church) in Midtown—walking distance to K Street dining and nightlife. The 9.4 Wi-Fi is the best of any hotel in this list, and the 9.2 staff and cleanliness scores are excellent. Guests describe it as “nice clean rooms, polite and helpful staff.”
What You Actually Get
Some rooms come with full kitchens (2 electric stove tops, convection microwave), making this ideal for extended stays. Pet-friendly with a $75 fee for up to 6 nights ($175 for 7+ nights). Pets must be under 50 pounds. Private parking, fitness center, laundry, and a restaurant with a bar on-site. The 24-hour front desk is convenient for late arrivals. Very good breakfast included. The hotel’s architecture gives it a unique, non-cookie-cutter feel.
Choose this if: You’re an extended-stay traveler or remote worker who needs reliable internet and cooking facilities.
10. Hilton Sacramento Arden West
The Vibe
A 3-star Hilton in the Point West area near Arden Fair Mall. The 8.8 staff score is the highlight here—guests consistently call out friendly, professional service. The pool and hot tub are open daily, per guest QA. A solid corporate-travel option with two on-site restaurants.
What You Actually Get
Outdoor swimming pool and hot tub, fitness center, air conditioning, and two restaurants. Wonderful breakfast available for €13. Pets are allowed (charges apply). On-site parking is available. The 2.5 Wi-Fi score is alarmingly low—the worst in this list—so don’t count on working from your room. Check-in runs until midnight, which helps for late arrivals. Rooms on floors 11 and 12 are available.
Choose this if: You’re in town for business near Point West and don’t need in-room internet.
11. Larkspur Landing Extended Stay Suites Sacramento
The Vibe
A 3-star extended-stay property that scores a 7.2 overall—the lowest in this list. The 8.1 location (near Howe Avenue) and staff scores are decent, but cleanliness (7.5) and comfort (7.5) drag it down. Best suited for longer-term stays where the kitchenette makes up for the lower ratings.
What You Actually Get
Suites with full kitchens are the main draw here—microwave, fridge, stove. Breakfast is included in the rate. Fitness center and laundry on-site. Private parking available. No swimming pool or spa. A $250 damage deposit is required, and it must be a bank-issued credit card (no prepaid cards). Pets allowed on request with possible charges. No military or bereavement discounts available per the property.
Choose this if: You need an extended-stay suite with a kitchen and are willing to trade comfort scores for the price.

12. Homewood Suites by Hilton Sacramento Airport-Natomas
The Vibe
This 3-star Hilton affiliate ties with the Hyatt House Natomas at 8.9 overall, but edges ahead with a 9.4 cleanliness score. The 9.3 location is practically identical. Guests praise the easy airport access and proximity to shopping and restaurants. The free shuttle runs 24/7 with seat reservations starting at 3:15 AM.
What You Actually Get
Free airport shuttle with early morning service (as early as 3:15 AM for seat reservations). Free on-site parking, outdoor pool, fitness center, air conditioning, and breakfast included. All-suite layout with fully equipped kitchens—great for longer stays. Pets are allowed (deposit required). Free private parking. The 5.0 Wi-Fi score is noticeably weaker than the Hyatt House’s 9.0, which is a real differentiator for travelers who need to work.
Choose this if: Spotless rooms and free airport parking matter more to you than blazing-fast Wi-Fi.

13. Kimpton Sawyer Hotel by IHG
The Vibe
A 4-star Kimpton in the heart of the Downtown Commons—connected to Golden 1 Center and surrounded by restaurants and shopping. The 9.3 cleanliness and 9.2 comfort scores are nearly perfect. Guests describe it as “the most incredible place to stay” and mention they’ll “always come back.” The 8.2 value score reflects premium pricing, but the experience justifies it.
What You Actually Get
Year-round outdoor pool, fitness center, very good breakfast, and on-site restaurant. Balcony rooms are available. Free Wi-Fi with a perfect 10.0 guest rating—best in this entire guide.

Choose this if: You’re bringing a dog and want a premium downtown experience with Zero pet fees.
14. SpringHill Suites by Marriott Sacramento Natomas

What You Actually Get

Rooms come with separate sitting areas (Suites with 2 Queen beds and a trundle available). No pets allowed. Groups of 10+ rooms have different policies. Guests under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. The quiet location is a genuine plus for light sleepers.
Choose this if: You prioritize a quiet night’s sleep and free parking over being in the downtown action.

15. Hampton Inn & Suites Sacramento-Airport-Natomas
The Vibe
A 3-star Hampton Inn in the Natomas airport corridor. The 9.2 location is tailored for flyers, and the 9.1 cleanliness score is strong. Guests call out “friendly staff, large rooms, excellent location with lots of dining venues.” A reliable airport-adjacent pick.

Check Tonight’s Price for Hyatt Centric Sacramento Downtown →

The Vibe
A 4-star Autograph Collection hotel in a gorgeous historic building downtown. Guests describe the vibe as “calm and welcoming” and call out Ludwig from the valet staff by name. The on-site restaurant earns “phenomenal” reviews. The 7.8 value score is the weakest—rates are premium for the brand and location.
What You Actually Get

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Sacramento hotel has the best location for walking to Old Town?
The Embassy Suites by Hilton Riverfront Promenade (9.6 location score) sits directly on the Sacramento River across from Old Sacramento. The Delta King Hotel (9.4 location) is moored right in Old Town itself — you’re literally on the waterfront. Both offer river views and immediate access to the historic district, restaurants, and the railroad museum.
Are pets allowed at these Sacramento hotels?
Yes — several hotels on this list accept pets. The Kimpton Sawyer Hotel stands out with no extra pet fees at all. Holiday Inn Downtown-Arena charges a $75 non-refundable fee per pet. Hyatt House Sacramento-Midtown charges $75 for up to 6 nights ($175 for 7+). Embassy Suites Riverfront Promenade and Hampton Inn Airport-Natomas allow pets with charges that vary. Always confirm the current policy and weight limits before booking.
Which hotels offer free airport shuttle service in Sacramento?
Governors Inn Hotel offers a free airport shuttle operating from 6:30 AM to 10:30 PM. Hyatt House Sacramento Airport – Natomas runs a 24/7 shuttle on request. Homewood Suites by Hilton Airport-Natomas offers a 24/7 shuttle with seat reservations starting at 3:15 AM. Hampton Inn & Suites Airport-Natomas also has a 24/7 on-call shuttle starting at 3:20 AM. These four are your best bets for SMF access.
What’s the best time of year to visit Sacramento?
Sacramento shines in spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) when temperatures range from 60-80°F. Summers can hit 100°F+, but many hotels have outdoor pools to compensate. Winter is mild (40-60°F) with lower rates and fewer crowds — a solid option if you’re flexible. For events, book around Kings games at Golden 1 Center or concerts at the arena, which drive up downtown rates significantly.
Which Sacramento hotels have the best Wi-Fi for remote work?
The Kimpton Sawyer Hotel leads with a perfect 10.0 Wi-Fi score, followed by Hyatt Centric Sacramento Downtown at 9.6 and Hyatt House Sacramento-Midtown at 9.4. HI Sacramento Hostel surprisingly scores 9.3 Wi-Fi, beating most hotels. Avoid Hilton Sacramento Arden West (2.5 Wi-Fi rating) entirely for work purposes. The Hyatt House properties consistently deliver strong internet performance.
How do I get from Sacramento International Airport (SMF) to downtown hotels?
SMF is about 10-15 miles from downtown Sacramento. Ride-shares (Uber/Lyft) typically cost $25-40 and take 15-20 minutes. Several hotels on this list offer free airport shuttles (Governors Inn, Hyatt House Natomas, Homewood Suites Natomas, Hampton Inn Natomas). The Yolobus route 42B connects the airport to downtown for $2.25. Taxis run roughly $35 flat rate. If you’re renting a car, most downtown hotels charge $15-45/night for parking.
