Hotels Near California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento

I really enjoyed my stay! Even though my stay was only for a night, I felt like The Exchange had everything I needed. The front desk was super helpful when calling my car from valet

Hotel is located just 3 mins walk to Old Sacremento area. Extremely convenient. Also its just beside Macys! The laundry room is located inside the shower and rest room next to the pool, not the most ideal to do your laundry buy hey its Free!

Company holiday party was held a couple of blocks away so location was perfect. We were checking in at the front desk (6:04 pm)and the Hotel Registration Clerk said that ”Happy Hour” had just ended (6:00 pm). She asked if we would like a glass of wine (part of Happy Hour). We said ”yes” and less than 5 minutes later we both had glasses of a quite good Pinot Noir (red). The same Registration Clerk also had the extra pillows i had requested delivered to the room shortly after we entered our room. The room was tastefully decorated in muted grey & red tones and the mini bar was fully stocked. There were soft jersey robes to lounge in. In addition to the robes the room contained a yoga mat, reusable water bottles, wine bottle opener & other assorted items for sale if you were interested. The room was extremely quiet which considering all of the construction going on in the area was welcomed. All in all I would give the Kimpton Sawyer Hotel 4.75/5 stars. The .25 deduction was due to the extra firm mattress on the bed. The mattress was so firm that it was not comfortable for side sleepers.

In addition to breakfast, sausages, eggs, waffles, buns, cereals, milk, coffee, and fruit, as well as gourmet food made on-site, good food! The most want to say is that here and the Hilton on the edge of the airport, not comparable, but the price is almost! If you rent a car, get together for 10 minutes. The suite is two TVs, but watching TV sleeps does not interfere with each other! The bridge outside the window is golden! There is a microwave in the refrigerator, but it is not big.

Stay in the city center, mainly to attend the Golden One graduation ceremony, it is convenient to walk there, and you can also go to the old town by the river to see the old train station that is still in use, and visit the memorial hall of the construction of the Pacific Railway in the United States. The ticket is $12, and there are English explanations. If you are not good at English, remember to install a translation software. I also found Sacramento Chinatown, but there are not many people in the downtown streets during the day, and I always feel a little scared. The public parking lot next to the hotel is $20 a day. Of course, if it is valet parking, it may be $45. It is parked in one place, which feels unnecessary. The credit card mortgage is released slowly. It has not been released for more than a week. The credit card bill has been showing that it has not been credited. Of course, it may also be the reason for the temporary change of room type. When booking, the room type shows that the king-size bed room can accommodate four adults. I thought I could have a sofa bed, but when I got to the room, I saw a big bed and a small sofa. I negotiated with the front desk for a long time and changed to a room with a sofa bed. They promised that there would be no additional charge. Now I don’t know what the result is. The people have left, so I can only let it go. There is also an old building next to it, which was the former county court. It is now the county jail and is still in use.

Overall: would stay again! Nice hotel, room, bar, food, very convenient location. LOCATION: Convenient! Right next to DOCO and the Golden 1 Center. Old Sac is a few minutes walk away. Public transport nearby. HOTEL: The decor was a lovely, sophisticated, modern take on various historical periods. Music is a theme, nodding to the historic past of the building. Balcony bar - Art Deco. Clean, eye-catching, charming. Emerald velvet chairs and gold-toned metal accents, whimsical 1920’s & ‘30’s music playing overhead, and servers dressed in simple roaring ‘20’s attire. Menu: Small bites. Phyllo baked brie, oysters, ahi poke, short ribs, Asian lettuce wraps, and more. 1st floor restaurant - “7th Street Standard”, is the name. Bright & elegant with simplicity. This restaurant can be a standalone; it’s better than a “hotel restaurant” in food quality, artistry, and presentation. Didn’t eat here this time, but have before. I recall everything being good! Great drinks last time!! Had happy hour drinks this time ($10), still great! Handcrafted, fresh, subtle sweetness for balance, nothing syrupy or fake-colored (reg price $15). Happy hour food and drinks available 3-6pm. Full menu includes trout, salmon, pork belly, and other goodies. ROOM: I like the decor. The lamps were cool: gold dipped bulbs, bronze-colored cones, retro meets are deco feel. There’s a handy motion-censored light under the bathroom vanity when you don’t want to turn on a bright light at night, light-framed mirror for easy getting ready, spacious bathroom. Views from my particular room were not worth seeing. Good blackout curtains in-room, lots of natural light when open. Bathroom basics included: shampoo, conditioner, lotion soap. Not included: q-tips, cotton balls, etc. The mini fridge could fit some small leftover food boxes. Plenty of outlets near the bed. I don’t recall any food snacks offered for sale. $5 Fiji. Open rack closet, and drawers available. I believe my room was 320 sqft, with enough space to roll out a mat and do a room workout, if that’s your thing (or gym on 4th floor). AREA OFFERINGS: There’s a Starbucks Reserve steps from the hotel and many places to eat, drink & entertain within easy walking distance (steakhouse, bowling alley, movies, rooftop pool bar, beer vault, and SO much more!). While it’s a nice area (million-dollar condos and attractions next door), another block over in one direction becomes a not-so-nice area (homelessness and refuse), so just be mindful of what direction you’re heading, if that bothers you. PARKING: There are unattended daily parking lots right next to the hotel ($13-$16ish/10hrs), hourly metered parking, attended hourly/daily lots, valet ($40 seems to get you 2-day parking with in & out privileges; I valeted early evening, pickup needed before 2:45-ish a.m. on the third day). Valet had a very easy texting system. They texted me my valet ticket with a clickable link to call my car when desired. The link let me know the progress of my incoming car (“requested”, “on the way”, “ready”), so I knew exactly when I needed to head out and could enjoy my time until then. You can tip through the link, too.

The hotel breakfast will start at 8:30, because it is necessary to hurry, so if you don't eat, the meal coupon will be wasted. The hotel offers free coffee and tastes good. I was overcharged at the time of check-in. Fortunately, I found out in time that the money was returned and the front desk was too unprofessional.

Location is great. Clean room. Amazing swimming pool. Parking is free, deposit is $100. Breakfast is simple, maybe better to eat outside. Negative: homeless people walk near the rooms , they walk upstairs, was kinda scary.

The hotel is in the city center, but it is relatively old. The rooms and the front desk are in different buildings. Overall it is OK, but the breakfast options are very limited. It is suitable for business trips.

Netflix and internet was down, even though I had called before hand to make sure it was available, very inconvenient and there was no solution with the hotel staff :/
