Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova

Stylish Comfort with Easy Access to Sacramento Shows

Modern and polished, the Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova offers a relaxed yet sophisticated stay just outside downtown Sacramento. Located right next to the Folsom Blvd Train Station, you're only a 20-minute ride from the heart of the city’s live music scene. With an outdoor pool, hot tub, and updated fitness center, it’s a great mix of comfort and convenience.

Why Concert-goers love it

One of the biggest perks of this hotel is its proximity to public transit—you can hop on the train just steps from the hotel and be in downtown Sacramento in under half an hour. That means no driving or parking hassles after a late show. The area is generally quiet, letting you wind down in peace after the encore. Plus, the hotel offers a no-stress check-in at 3:00 PM and a generous noon check-out for those late-night recoveries.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends who want easy, affordable access to live music without staying downtown
• Solo travelers catching a must-see artist and looking for a safe, comfortable base
• Couples making a weekend out of a concert
• Fans who want a quieter spot to relax after the show
• Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value with solid amenities

Food and Drink Options

You’ll find several convenient dining options here. The on-site Formaggio Taverna and Patio serves up Italian classics and a decent wine list—perfect for pre-show dinner or a post-concert bite. There’s also a Starbucks in the lobby for early-morning cappuccinos or late-night cravings. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the hotel does offer late-night dining during restaurant hours, and there are local eateries within a short walk or rideshare.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, it’s well-positioned for nightlife. You’re just a train ride from Sacramento’s bustling bar and club scene. For something low-key, the hotel bar offers craft cocktails and a mellow vibe—ideal for unwinding after a high-energy show.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s clean, spacious rooms and consistently mention the friendly staff. The location gets high marks for being safe and convenient, especially with the light rail right next door. Many reviewers also highlight the comfortable beds and the ease of getting to and from concerts without the chaos of downtown.

Areas for Improvement

The Concierge level services are currently unavailable, which might be a small letdown for frequent Marriott guests. Some visitors mention that the area doesn’t have much nightlife of its own, so it's better suited to those who don't mind riding the train or ridesharing into town.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to a Sacramento show and want a quiet, comfortable stay with easy transit access, the Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova hits all the right notes.
