The Delta King is a river paddle boat that ran between San Francisco and Sacramento in the 1900's transporting workers back and forth. Now, it is permanently docked in Old Towne Sacramento on the Sacramento River. It has ornately carved staircases and bannisters throughout and shows the eloquence of the early 20th century river travel. The room we stayed in... More

The level of service was incredible--every staff member we encountered was amazingly friendly and helpful. We brought our bikes to enjoy the wonderful bike trails along the river expecting to store them in our car. The hotel staff provided a locked storage room for us instead and helped us get them there. We had a river-view room--small, but with a... More

We went here after a hectic exploration of four National Parks and prior to visiting San Francisco. We wanted two nights peace and quiet which the Delta King provided in a quirky and convenient way. We were able to visit Old Town and Downtown Sacramento without using the car and even popped back for lunch. The weather was hot and... More

An interesting way to spend the night in Old Sacramento. Take Amtrak and walk a few blocks to the riverboat, possibly stopping at the Railroad Museum or the Sacramento History Museum. Rooms are small but well appointed with flat screens and radio/cd. Good bird viewing along the river with scads of sand martins flitting about. Look for a deal such... More

We stayed two nights on the river side in May. It was very tranquil watching the geese and their chicks on the river.

I have been here last summer and I remember that the receptionist in charge gave us the last room available and I received a very warm welcome! I have never been in a boat hotel and it was an amazing experience! The restaurant service was very good the breakfast in the morning perfect and the staff was very professional! I... More

My husband and I stayed one night on the Delta King, returning from a L-O-N-G road trip through the Olympic Peninsula of Washington state and the coast of Oregon. We wanted to be pampered. Picked one of only two staterooms onboard (we enjoy sleeping in separate beds while on vacation--often the change of scenery and excitement are quite enough, thank... More

What a wonderful way to spend your days/night on the Sacramento River with amazing views, excellent service, great food - what more can one ask for?? We were able to get a tour of the ship, which was extremely interesting and gave us real appreciation for the work that went into renovating an aging paddlewheeler into a lovely hotel.
