The real attraction isn't the soaring lobby or the excellent cocktails--it's the people behind the bar. Steven, Jules, Jenna, Shanna Marie, Samantha, and the legendary Hilton have mastered the rare art of making everyone feel like a regular, whether it's your first visit or your hundredth. They're quick with a recommendation, quicker with a smile, and somehow keep the place running with the relaxed confidence of people who genuinely enjoy what they do. And yes... Hilton works at the Hyatt. That's worth at least one extra star all by itself. If you see a guy named Hilton working at the Hyatt, take the photo. The universe doesn't hand you jokes that good very often. As for the negative reviews? Some people complain it's expensive. Well... you're sitting across from the California State Capitol in one of Sacramento's flagship hotels. If you're expecting gas station prices, I also have some beachfront property in Nebraska to sell you. Others say it's "too classy." That's just another way of admitting they accidentally started acting civilized. Whether you're celebrating something important, hiding from the summer heat, meeting friends, or simply people-watching in one of Sacramento's best lobbies, this place delivers. The drinks are excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff remind you that hospitality isn't about serving cocktails--it's about making people feel like they belong. Five stars. And one bonus star for Hilton... just for showing up to work with the funniest name badge in Sacramento.

Over the last two days I've been trying to make reservations for my partners birthday in the next couple weeks. He and I have been trying to find the best and most relaxing accommodations at a decent and fair cost. With each of the associates I spoke to I was sadly getting miss leading information about what amenity's for a bundled package for the birthday. Most if not all hotels offer some packages that make a stay more comfortable and enjoyable. One associate offered free complimentary parking, small daily allowance and also a 2 pm late check out while other associates said that you never offer those. I understand that things can possibly change per associate but to say they are never offer something is odd. Not to mention on top of all miss leading information they kept referring to my partner as my wife when I already said it's for my partner ( he). It's very insensitive, unprofessional and presumptuous to just assume our partners orientation by just our voices (this happened multiple times to the point I had to correct)! I didn't receive any warmth or personable connection with the associates to feel like I'm being welcomed to make a reservation. They were very cold and robotic like I'm being sold a car. Talking to someone to book a stay at a Beautiful hotel like Hyatt Regency should be welcoming, like home away from home. So far with my experience just with the phone conversations is persuading me to look elsewhere. I expected better from Hyatt.

However, there were a few unexpected issues that were disappointing, especially after reading so many positive reviews. A couple of the face towels in the bathroom had a noticeable mildew smell, which was unpleasant. In addition, the air conditioner was extremely loud throughout the night. It repeatedly turned on around 1:00 a.m., 2:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m., and 4:00 a.m., making it difficult to get a good night's sleep. I hope management will address these issues, as they would make a big difference in the overall guest experience. Other than that, our stay was fine, and I appreciate your attention to this feedback.

The drinks were excellent, the complimentary breakfast had plenty of options, and while it was definitely a busy hotel, everything was well managed. We stayed on the 8th floor, which was nice and quiet.

The staff was friendly and welcoming, and valet parking made coming and going easy. We'd definitely stay here again.

The rooms were clean, the location is convenient and just a short ride from the Amtrak station, and it's a great place to stay when exploring downtown Sacramento.

I personally felt more comfortable avoiding street parking.

There was insane street noise long after the concert in the park, until 1am or so and then again at 530am on a weekend morning. The room itself was alright. Upgrade to a King corner room thanks for Marriott status. Small bathroom and room, but not unexpected for an older boutique style property. Bed was okay. When I told them I was checking out they could have cared less about the experience I shared, reaffirming the choice to leave and stay elsewhere. If I'm in Sacramento again I would never stay here - even if it were free.

This building is pretty! There are 8 stories. The rooms are apartment-like and some are suites. My 1-king bedroom on the fourth floor had a microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, and comfy couch. The bed was soo comfortable. The blankets were warm. This room faced 28th Street. My issue with this hotel was that the guy at check in barely said anything to us. He didn't explain breakfast hours, where the elevators were, or welcome us as status-holders. This was the first time in a while I've had such an experience at a Hyatt property. Parking: valet only, $40. I found an uncovered parking lot on 28th that was $10 for overnight. The valet attendant is directly in front of the hotel. Breakfast: M-F 6:30A-9A, S-S 7A-10A on 3rd floor. Offered typical hotel breakfast with scrambled eggs, sausage, toast, cereal, and hot coffee. They also had oatmeal and some fruits.

When I checked in on Sunday (July 26th, around 4:30 pm), the female staff (whose name I forgot, ) at the front desk was very friendly, professional and super nice. I got a very nice upgraded room (because of my daughter's credit card privileges). The room was big and clean. But the spotlight is on the bathtub!!! A standalone, deep, and curved soaking bathtub that I was able to enjoy this full-body immersion experience with the mandarin and citrus bath salts that the hotel provided. That made my stay truly luscious and fulfilling my daughter's aspirations for me!!. They have a coffee time in the morning at the lobby where we can choose from tea, hot coffee or iced coffee. Then we got to enjoy the social hour for drinks from 5 pm to 6 pm. They offered various wines, beers, liqueurs, non-alcoholic drinks, and appetizers. I particularly liked the cocktail, Silver Spoon cocktails, offered on day 1. It's very smooth and mellow especially when pairing with Korean spicy chicken wings which were the perfect appetizer. We really enjoyed the time at the cozy lobby. It's a nice way to cool down. They have a cocktails making class (Mixology) at the Revival (hotel bar/restaurant) for registered guests and the class is offered daily at 4 pm, same Cocomo drink every day. Adam was a fun and energetic teacher and we all were joyfully engaging like the perfect students. I liked the drink and the the class!! Activity for adults. It's totally cool! We ate our meals mostly at the Revival and room services from the Revival too. I will do a separate review about the restaurant. I loved their gym. Quite spacious with quite a few equipment. I was there exercising alone so I tried most of the equipment. They have a big beautiful pool that's absolutely inviting. They also have several cabanas for groups rental. But it's just too hot to be outside. So I spent most of my time in my hot soaking tub! . I also went shopping and watched a movie. Shenna was very pleasant when she helped me to check out of the hotel. I had a great stay.

Everything arrived hot, and the breakfast potatoes were perfectly crispy and full of flavor. I ordered the Sawyer Breakfast with two sunny-side-up eggs and the chicken apple sausage and potatoes, which was hearty, flavorful, and very filling. It also came with 2 toast pieces. They initially forgot the jam, but when I asked, they brought it right away (strawberry and grape jam). The service was friendly, attentive, and excellent throughout. We also tried the omelet and breakfast sandwich, and those were just as delicious. Breakfast truly exceeded our expectations! Overall, we had a wonderful stay. The staff was incredibly warm, welcoming, and accommodating, making the experience even better. The only small downside was that the sink in our room was quite small, so water tended to splash everywhere. Aside from that minor issue, everything was fantastic. Cleaning staff was excellent, we loved the room service. We also loved that the hotel offers complimentary bike rentals during the day, which made it easy to explore the area. The location is close to everything, and we'd happily stay here again!

I woke up with 2 very sore fingers on my right hand. I reported to desk (only 1 staff working solo). She did give me an ice pack and a wrap. She did apologize. She asked me what she could do. That's odd to me, I've been in customer service over 45 years, I never asked a customer "what can I do?" for bad service or experience s...just make it better. I told her have someone go remove the nightstand so the next guest doesn't get injured. I went back to room to record how severely unbalanced the table was. A HK Supv (Myneli) was very kind but also unsure came by, I told her take it out PLEASE. It's a handicap room to make it easier for those of us with disabilities, not to make it unsafe or uncomfortable! She removed it as I requested. The front desk agent, said she was going to make an incident report and a manager would contact me, I never heard from anyone. That was 5 days ago. The front desk agent said she would put some points on my honors account, never happened. I also reported that I left my breakfast passes on the same dresser I placed the tip (not 2gether) the tip and passes were gone. The front desk did replace them, thank you. I also chose this location because it had an outside hot tub near the pool but was disappointed to see CAUTION tape like a crime scene. No access. PLEASE update repairs so we have accurate info when booking! I opted for a hot bath (dirty tub, I had to clean. See photos) There was also long hairs on the soap & shampoo bottles. I always travel with clorox wipes BUT why do we have to spend so much money and still have to sanitize a room? I still leave a cash tip daily because im sure they work hard & are most likely low wages. It's the right thing to do. Lastly the decor in the room was off. Only 2 small pictures and no full length mirror nor suitcase stand. I reactivated my Marriot account, I don't know if I will continue on with Hilton.... Update Manager?

I really liked this hotel, but ultimately left feeling disappointed…read more There were several things I appreciated. The tall ceilings and quiet rooms--thanks to excellent insulation--made the stay very comfortable. I also liked the different water options available near the front desk, especially since the bottled water in the rooms cost $10 each. The music in the pool area created a great atmosphere, and the jacuzzi was a nice size and very enjoyable. However, the main issue was the mandatory valet fee--even when not using valet service. This makes no sense and feels unreasonable. If arriving by Uber or not bringing a car, there is no justification for being charged valet. The website does not clearly state that valet is mandatory, and there was no prior notice when booking. At check-in, staff simply said, "We have to charge it anyway," regardless of whether the service was used. The fee is also quite high at $52 per night, which adds up quickly for a service not utilized. According to previous reviews, valet fees have increased significantly over the past three years. I would not stay at this Westin Hotels & Resorts location again. The accumulation of mandatory fees makes the experience feel transactional rather than guest-focused. I would much rather voluntarily tip valet staff when I actually use and appreciate their service, rather than be required to pay a substantial fee regardless of need. Overall, while the hotel has many appealing qualities, the mandatory valet charge without clear disclosure or usage was a major drawback.

The morning breakfast was great. There were different options every day, and there a great variety of foods and drinks. It was well maintained and well stocked by a friendly gentleman. They have fresh coffee, tea, lemon ice water, and a variety of juices. Everyday they have cereal, oatmeal, hard bioled eggs, yogurt, bagels, toast, muffins, and fresh fruit. They have a waffle making station with plenty of topping options. They also have a small buffet style breakfast station with some kind of eggs (like scrambled and mini omelets), breakfast meats (like bacon and sausages), and different types of country potatoes. It was delicious and a great way to start my day. Location wise, the hotel doesn't look like it is in the greatest location, but it is faily quiet inside the rooms. It is also very close to Sac State which is great. It is within walking distance to the college. I would absolutely stay here again.

As we were making our way up the room, Maria from housekeeping greeted us and let us know if we need anything, please let us know. Arrived at our floor and you can tell how comfy and inviting the bed is. Woke up and decided to take advantage of the gym at 5am. Greeted by Seth as I was helping myself to coffee. There were some items ready in which he added to help myself. As I thanked him, he reminded me breakfast will start at 7am and provided me what was on the menu. Made it to breakfast with Cecilia who works the area. I briefly met her along with Madison when I first checked in.

Told her shes pulling a double in which she giggled and has such an infectious smile. Overall I am very satisfied with the awesome customer service especially the attentiveness and acknowledgement.
