Hostel Features

The Sacramento Hostel is housed in a beautiful 19th century mansion, one of the few surviving Gold Rush-era buildings on Sacramento’s Merchant Row. A restored grand entry, vaulted ceilings, wood paneling, chandeliers, stained glass skylight, and fireplaces with original hand-painted tiles all add to the historic appeal of this uniquely refined hostel.
