Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key—this hotel sits just minutes from Sacramento’s top music venues, making pre- and post-show travel a breeze, especially with rideshares and late-night transport options nearby. Rooms are quiet and restful, and with check-out at noon, you can sleep in after a late night. The 24-hour gym and outdoor hot tub are great for unwinding, and the riverfront setting adds a peaceful touch after a high-energy concert.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a classy yet social stay near downtown

Food and Drink Options

Hungry after the encore? Scott’s Seafood, the hotel’s on-site restaurant, serves up breakfast, lunch, and dinner with gorgeous river views. Whether you're dining on the patio or ordering room service, you’re covered. While there isn’t 24/7 dining, the restaurant has generous hours and there are more options just a short drive away. The in-room coffee makers and plush robes make morning-after recovery feel like a spa day.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about relaxation than revelry, it’s just a short Uber from downtown Sacramento’s bars, lounges, and live music clubs. If you’re looking for a chill vibe to sip a glass of wine or local craft beer post-show, the restaurant’s riverside patio is an ideal spot.

What People Say

Guests rave about the peaceful setting, clean and elegant rooms, and the friendly staff. Reviews often highlight the beautiful views of the river, the high-quality on-site dining, and the hotel’s overall serene ambiance—perfect for winding down after a big night out. Many also praise the comfortable beds and spa-like bathrooms.

Areas for Improvement

If you're craving a rowdy afterparty, this might not be your scene—it's more zen escape than party pad. Also, while there’s plenty of luxury, the price point may feel a little steep for budget travelers, especially on busy weekends.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want to be close to the action but relax in riverside luxury afterward, The Westin Sacramento Riverfront Hotel & Spa is a top-tier choice.
