The white, green and glass Hyatt exterior rises 15 floors across from the State Capitol and Sacramento Convention Center, making this hotel one of the most convenient options in town. More than 500 rooms are available, many with some of the best views in downtown. Another bonus is the outdoor space with a heated pool, hot tub and fireplace, all surrounded by lush greenery.

Hyatt also maintains two other properties in midtown and downtown Sacramento: Hyatt Centric (downtown) and Hyatt House (midtown). Hyatt Centric has 172 rooms in an art deco setting within walking distance of Golden 1 Center. It’s home to The 7th Street Standard, one of downtown’s finest restaurants, and the rooftop Clayton Club, for drinks and nosh amid the Sacramento skyline. The Hyatt House, across from Sutter’s Fort Historic State Park, is inside the remodeled the Eastern Star Hall building, distinctive with its Romanesque Revival-style architecture. The pet-friendly hotel features rooms and suites, some with fully equipped kitchens and living areas, making it easy to stay awhile. Breakfast is included in room rates.
