I recently stayed again at the Holiday Inn Sacramento Downtown-Arena and chose this hotel primarily for its convenient location and reasonable price. Having stayed here before, I knew it would be a solid option for a comfortable and well-situated stay in Sacramento. Location: 5/5 The hotel is perfectly located in downtown Sacramento, just a short walk from Golden 1 Center, making it a great choice for anyone attending an event or game. It's also close to Old Sacramento, restaurants, and local attractions, which is a major plus. The accessibility to major highways and public transportation is another reason this hotel works well for both business and leisure trips. Price & Value: 4/5 Compared to other hotels in the area, the pricing is competitive, especially considering the location. While it’s not the most luxurious option, it offers a solid balance of affordability and convenience. Given Sacramento’s rising hotel rates, I found it to be a great value for what you get.

We attended a concert at the Golden One Arena (Heart)…and the hotel is a very short walk through a mall area (about one block) that is lighted well, with lots of foot traffic. Many concert goers stay at this property.

We had a fantastic stay at the Downtown Holiday Inn Hotel! The location is perfect, with easy access to shops and just a short walk to Old Sacramento, which made exploring the area incredibly convenient. The highlight of our stay was the excellent service we received in the hotel's restaurant. Erica, our server, was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and always ready with great recommendations. She truly made our dining experience special. The hotel is clean and comfortable, and the staff is welcoming. We highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Sacramento!

Staff on check in was not super nice. Very cold, no eye contact, no conversation.. but not rude either, so I guess ok. However, they could and should be much better. We liked the hotel. It is older hotel but clean. Location is great. Pool is ok, area around the pool could be nicer. Parking should be cheaper if not free. It is ridiculous that the garage next to the hotel is cheaper than hotel parking. Breakfast was ok, just don't understand server's job there; food you take from buffet, which is fine, but drinks you can't, server has to bring you coffee/tea and then they bring a bill with tip suggestions, even though breakfast was pre-paid when booking the hotel. Just find that unnecessary.

We were in town for a concert at the Golden 1 Arena and this hotel is perfect! Five minute walk to the entry doors. 5 minute walk the other direction and you’re in Old Sacramento. Breakfast is not included but there is a buffet at the hotel that I can’t comment on because we didn’t eat there. The restaurant was closed for dinner but you could get dinner at The Pub bar and it was excellent! $30 for a ribeye steak a dit was really good. Great drinks there also. They do charge for parking; no surprise there since that is standard for any city hotel these days.

location location location. Had an event at Golden 1 Center and this hotel's locale could not be better. Bars and options all around with no need for a car - offered two options for parking which i felt were resonable. If you can walk you will find plenty if you're into food and drink.

Breakfast was standard buffet. It was alright. The staff there and the staff at the front desk for the most part were excellent. I got there early and I was offered a different room if I wanted to check in early. All of the information I was given regarding my stay, food, parking, etc. was explained clearly and professionally.

The location is very convenient: It is 20 mins from the Sacramento airport by a public bus. It is also around 20 mins on foot from the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center The buffet breakfast is amazing the staff is really welcoming.

That was my 2nd stay at this location and will stay there again. Like the location and convenience to Old Town. Room was comfortable, breakfast was good and staff was helpful. Also liked the bar in the hotel, especially Christmas eve.

Check in was fast and efficient. Very comfy bed and pillows. Great water pressure in shower. Free bottled water at front desk. Incredible location, literally just steps from the heart of town. The arena, tons of restaurants and bars, ice skating, Macy's, movie theater, all within a 2 minute walk. Pool open 24 hours. Had a slight problem with TV remote and maintenance fixed it immediately. We will stay here again. It
