Citizen Hotel

Top choice in Sacramento


After an elegant, ultrahip upgrade, this long-vacant 1927 beaux-arts tower became Downtown's coolest place to stay. The details are spot-on: luxe linens, wide-striped wallpaper and a rooftop patio with a great view of the city. There’s an upscale farm-to-fork restaurant on the ground floor.

Wi-fi costs an additional $9.95 per day.
