The Spotlight on HI Sacramento Hostel

Affordable Charm in the Heart of Sacramento

Modern yet full of character, HI Sacramento Hostel blends historic architecture with a vibrant, budget-friendly atmosphere. Set in a restored Victorian mansion in central Sacramento, this hostel is ideal for travelers looking to immerse themselves in the city’s culture and music scene without breaking the bank. With cozy shared spaces, free WiFi, and a welcoming community vibe, it’s the perfect home base for concert-goers.

Why Concert-goers love it

One of the biggest perks is the central location—just a short ride or walk from many of Sacramento’s top music venues, including those in the Old Sacramento Historic District. Late-night returns are no problem thanks to 24-hour reception and easy access to local transit. The hostel’s relaxed, communal atmosphere makes it easy to swap stories with fellow music fans or unwind on the wrap-around veranda after a high-energy show. Quiet sleeping quarters and shared bathrooms keep things simple, and the 3:00 PM check-in time works well for travelers arriving from out of town.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a fun, social base near music venues
  • Solo travelers ticking artists off their bucket list
  • Couples combining concerts with a weekend getaway
  • Fans seeking a quieter, budget-conscious post-show spot
  • Anyone watching their wallet but still wanting a memorable experience

Food and Drink Options

Guests can enjoy a free continental breakfast each morning, featuring toast, oatmeal, fruit, coffee, and tea—perfect after a late night out. While there’s no on-site restaurant, the fully equipped communal kitchen lets you prepare your own late-night snacks. Plus, Sacramento’s downtown dining scene is just steps away, with plenty of walkable eateries open late.

Nightlife Options

The hostel is just minutes from lively bars, lounges, and live music venues packed into Sacramento’s entertainment districts. While there’s no bar on property, the inviting common spaces and game room make it easy to connect with fellow travelers before heading out for the night—or staying in for a more mellow vibe.

What People Say

Guests praise the hostel’s cleanliness, friendly staff, and unbeatable location. Many mention how easy it is to meet fellow travelers and appreciate the charming, historic setting. The quiet atmosphere and outdoor spaces are also consistent highlights in reviews.

Areas for Improvement

Shared bathrooms may not be for everyone, and the hostel's 30-mile radius policy means it's only an option for out-of-town visitors. Some travelers wish there were more private room options and note that parking can be tricky in the area.

The Bottom Line

HI Sacramento Hostel is a fun, affordable, and welcoming spot for music lovers looking to stay close to the action without sacrificing comfort or community.

We really enjoyed our stay....

Liked: It is a beautiful historical mansion inside and outside.
Disliked: While we were there, we read about the history of the mansion and saw pictures, the upkeep of the gardens would have added to the charm of the place currently.

Homey and comfortable

Liked: Staying in this historical mansion always feels a little like coming home. I like that the beds are made - not all hostels provide this. New bedding was purchased a few years ago, so it looks nice. The room sleeps twelve, but there were only two of us the night I stayed.
Disliked: Breakfast used to be provided, but not any more. You can get lucky grazing from the free food shelf.

Some services need to improve

Liked: Is a beatifull house
Disliked: The bed was terrible, the mattress doesn't feel like a mattress, it's sort of like a bag with a lot of fabric.When I arrived to my dorm after the check-in, around 20:00 a woman was there with some plastic bags on my bed. First she toll me she was waiting for some friends and when I let know her that was my bed, she said ohhh Sorry, I'm the housekipping I'm leaving ... she cleared my bed and she left the roomThe door of the restroom is not cleae; requiere~
