Located in Central Sacramento, this hostel features rooms with free WiFi. Croissants, oatmeal, fresh fruit, coffee and tea are just some of the free continental breakfast items offered daily.

Each room provides linens, blankets and towels. Access to a shared bathroom is also provided at Hi Sacramento Hostel.

Staff were fantastic, especially Kira who took time to chat with customers and made everyone feel welcome. Also, that they allowed me to get a shower after check-out and hang out in the lobby. Much appreciated. The building and its interior are beautiful.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    It is a safe hostel because you have to ring on the bell and show your key card in order to let in. The staff are very hospitable helpful and nice. The kitchen is very nice to cook in, and has all the facilities. Bathroom and shower area was a bit cold for me.

    Great hotel that was quite pricy because of a festival that was going on in Sacramento. Really helpful and friendly staff! Valet parking is available, but there is a really cheap parking garage (city hall) closeby!

    This is a great historic mansion in downtown Sacramento. The staff is very friendly, free breakfast, affordable. If you are friendly, you can mingle with international folks (one of the perks of hostels). The room was quiet and comfortable. If you do not need a lot of tech such as tvs and stereos you will be fine (there is free WiFi). It was a perfect spot to stay after a show at Harlow's in downtown Sacramento.

    Great location for exploring Sacramento. Brilliant view of the freeway and bridge to Old Sacramento from our room but overpriced for the noisy stay. Window was not sound proofed and did not seal so the freeway noise was horrendous. Bring your sound-proofing headphones
