This was a fun stay through Travelzoo on the Delta King, a wonderfully restored paddle boat on the Sacramento river. Staff were very pleasant and meals great. (Breakfast was included with our package). The only negative aspect, and an important one, was the lack of parking. Valet parking is very expensive at $18.00 per day, so we were forced to... More

From the moment I stepped onto the gangway I was greeted b a friendly staff member. I have not one complaint about my stay of 2 nights. The room was very comfortable and the shower was excellent. Breakfast was really nice. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful in every respect. Afternoons in the sun on the deck with other... More

The Delta King, a turn of the century paddle boat, turned hotel, was a terrific opportunity to have an adventure in Old Town Sacramento. We recommend reserving a room with a river view so as not to listen to the old town night life all night…plus it has a spectacular view of the Sacramento River bridge as well as the... More

My husband and I have stayed on the Delta King twice in the past two months, each stay was for 2 nights. We have become big fans of this hotel. It is very unique, the ship has been lovingly cared for, staff is very pleasant and the location couldn't be better. As for the food -- breakfast is good, but... More

The staff was very friendly, the atmosphere was fun and the location is awesome. So much to do in the area! Special touches like the turn down service really make you feel special. The rooms are very cozy but they did a great job of utilizing the space.

We traveled by AMTRAK to Sacramento to experience the train trip and Old Town. We loved out stay on the Delta King. The staff simply couldn't have been more helpful and willing to make sure our stay in the hotel and the area were what we expected. We loved all the museums within walking distance and shopping. In fact, staying... More

Stayed two nights on the Delta King, the first in a regular city view stateroom and the second in the Captain's Quarters. The regular state room was lovely, with high-end furnishings and bedding and a wonderful high-pressure shower. It was on the small side but larger than most cruise mid-range rooms, with plenty of space for two large travelers and... More

I just spent the last two days in Sacramento on a business trip. I had the delight of staying at the Delta King. If you are particular about your accommodations and prefer a "sterile" room, this is not the hotel for you. However, f you like history and have never stayed on a genuine river boat, then you'll love the... More

The Delta King is a restored paddlewheel boat that resides on the Sacramento River in Old Sacramento. Not only is the Delta King Old Sac’s only hotel, it’s the best hotel in Sacramento. We arrived on Saturday afternoon, which anyone who’s been to Old Sac knows can be a parking nightmare. Not for guests of the Delta King – we... More

My husband booked a night here for my birthday. We lived in Sacramento for 16 years and attended an anniversary party on the Delta King but never stayed overnight until this past weekend. It was fun. The room was small but I didn't mind at all. Our room was on the river side so we could see passing boats and... More
