Guests consistently praise the clean, spacious rooms, friendly staff, and easy access to concert venues. Many reviewers love the comfortable bedding and say it’s a great place to decompress after a show. The free parking and value for money are also big hits.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel isn’t in the heart of downtown, so you’ll likely need a car or rideshare to get to most venues and nightlife spots. Some guests mention that while the hotel is clean and reliable, the decor could use a bit of a refresh—but nothing that takes away from the comfortable stay.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want comfort, convenience, and quiet after the show, Fairfield Inn by Marriott Sacramento Cal Expo hits all the right notes.
