Overview

Visitors to the Kimpton Sawyer Hotel in Sacramento, California will immediately see why the hotel was named one of the five best hotels in the city. Its convenient location in the heart of downtown Sacramento makes it an ideal place to stay while exploring California's capital city. The Golden 1 Center, the home of the Sacramento Kings, and the city's premier concert venue, is just steps away.

This boutique hotel offers many unique amenities, including a daily social hour in the living room or on the pool deck, and can read the morning paper with complimentary coffee and tea service each morning in the living room. Guests may borrow a bicycle and see all of Sacramento on the city's 32 miles of bike paths. Each room has a yoga mat, and yoga classes are offered by the pool deck on weekends. An on-site fitness center, laundry and dry-cleaning services, and free Wi-Fi help make each guest feel at home. Unlike most downtown hotels, pets are welcome at the Kimpton Sawyer, with no extra fees.

One of the highlights of the property is the rooftop pool, where guests can swim, lounge, and listen to live music while enjoying a birds-eye view of the city. At night, the indoor/outdoor Revival bar is a great place to socialize and relax.

The Kimpton Sawyer is ideal for meeting and events, boasting 22,000 square feet of event space, from large ballrooms to conference rooms, and outdoor space. Guests can also reserve the rooftop pool for special events, a perfect place for an evening social hour after a day of conferences.
