Downtown convention hotel opposite Capitol Park with newly updated rooms, Capitol views, and fast elevators.
The verdict
Pick a traveller type to re-weight the scores and re-rank the rooms around what you actually care about.
Situated directly beside Capitol Park, this high-rise Hyatt serves as a convenient base for convention attendees and downtown visitors. Guests appreciate the updated functional rooms, comfortable beds, and responsive service staff. However, travelers frequently run into sluggish Wi-Fi speeds with high latency and weak shower water pressure that struggles to stay hot. 813

- “Now, I will say, you know that I love Hyatt, I've stayed at a lot of Hyatt hotels and different brands for Hyatt, but I really enjoyed this bathroom. The black tiles, though it was a bit moody, I really liked it and I thought it really did upgrade the way that the bathroom looked.” 102:56

89Bed & Sleep
85- “The only in-room amenity that is on par with average HR standard is the bed and the bed linen. Everything else is subpar.” 17
Value
80- “But aside from its locale, this Hyatt property also earns praise from recent visitors for its reasonable room rates, three on-site restaurants and efficient customer service staff.” 8
- “Now, because this hotel is downtown, sometimes parking can be a challenge, but they do offer the valet amenity, which did end up being the route that we took and at $45 a night, it is a little bit expensive, but we did have unlimited in and out privileges, so it was a good option for us.” 100:28

Quotes run exactly as travelers wrote them — spelling and all. We trim for length, never for tidiness.
- “The food was slightly better than you'd find at a lower-end Hyatt, though selection was relatively lacking.” 7
- “I was thankful for the flexible hours and broad menu choices, as I tend to prefer greens and salads over typical breakfast items.” 5
- “I was there earlier this year. The breakfast food was pretty meh. A few hot foods, fruit, pastries, and cold cuts. Service was nice.” 14
- “what really sets hayatt Regency apart is its vibrant dining scene the dwson steakhouse is a must try boting a cozy outdoor fireplace and a Chic bar perfect for enjoying a meal or a drink” On camera122:20
- “The food is a bit on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for.” 6
- “The on-site dining options are a real treat especially the pool level Lounge Revival at the Sawyer where unique cocktails and tasty bar bites await” On camera120:41
- “The food is in a corner of the room and it can get a bit cramped- but the selection is alright.” 14
- “Globalist breakfast includes anything off of the menu except the steak and eggs.” 13
- “for a more casual bite Vines Cafe serves up delicious Northern California Cuisine during breakfast and lunch” On camera122:32
- “I tried a few of their breakfast choices and they are all delicious.” 6
- “The steakhouse is located on the ground floor, near the main entrance and next to Vine's Cafe. It's the perfect place for an awesome dinner.” 6
- “As a side note, when hotels offer a breakfast credit based on the number of occupants of the room, I get annoyed. The cost of the room is the same whether it is just me or two of us. At this hotel, why wouldn't they just give every room a credit of $32? Why penalize someone if they are staying alone?” 11
- “whether guests prefer an American or vegetarian breakfast to Kickstart their day they're in for a treat every morning” On camera123:45

- “The service was amazing, the food was delicious, and my steak was cooked as ordered.” 6
- “The food selection is small, good for one night but after that it gets pretty tiring” 14

- “The four-pearl Hyatt Regency Sacramento offers an ideal location for travelers doing business at the State Capitol or Sacramento Convention Center.” 3
- “Shower water pressure is weak but not terrible, though I found switching to the handheld shower head was a huge upgrade. Doesn't seem to get super hot.” 13

- “The shower worked well, the toilet had a separate door, and the toiletries were by KenetMD.” 5

The black tiles, though it was a bit moody, I really liked it and I thought it really did upgrade the way that the bathroom looked.” On camera102:56
- “The bathrooms with roomy glass walk-in showers appear more upscale than those with shower/tub combos. Category doesn't necessarily dictate the bathroom features, since Standard Rooms vary from shower/tub combos and walk-in showers. Both styles are spacious, however, with nice off-white tiling and large marble vanities.” 3

- “The service was amazing, the food was delicious, and my steak was cooked as ordered.” 6

- “The room also featured a mini-balcony with a fantastic view of the Capitol.” 7

- “The rooms are spacious and stylish featuring modern decor with elegant touches in Gold red and white” On camera122:09
- “While the one at the far end is a corner window and looks like it gives you a mini balcony, you will be disappointed to know that you can just crack open the door a tiny little bit.” 6
- “A couple things to note, the bed was very comfortable, the furniture was comfortable and stylish and we did really enjoy our time visiting the hotel and also sleeping in this room.” On camera105:40
- “The room was nicely decorated and it was very comfortable. My only suggestion: since this room has no window, it could benefit from a little extra lighting.” 5
- “The overall feel of the room is the standard updated Regency feel. Neutral colors, nothing fancy but very functional.” 11
- “Lodgers are also pleased with the newly renovated guest rooms, complimenting the contemporary decor and the long list of in-room amenities (which include flat-screen TVs and minifridges).” 8
- “I had to wait to swap rooms until Monday, but I got an awesome suite for my last 2 nights.” 6

- “One of the amazing features of this suite is the bathroom. You can access it through a door from the bedroom. The bathroom is huge.” 6
