The Delta King was so fun to stay on, especially with the walkability of the area, as we only stayed two nights, making outings more reasonably priced. The only complaint about our stay was that we asked for an early check-in, and they never notified us that our room was ready, so we could have been in our room 3 hours earlier than we were. The complementary house wine was nice, and the overall experience was good for a short stay as the room was pretty small.

It was interesting staying on an old historic paddlewheel boat. The bed wasn't as comfortable as it could have been. The rooms did not have temperature controls, so it was very cold all night. And there was only 1 thin blanket. Other than that, it was all right.

My wife and I live in Napa and went to Sacramento for our 21st wedding anniversary. We have been taking short get aways and the River King Hotel seemed like a good idea. Our stay was unique, had a nice river view room and about what we expected for the river boat. Really made us want to book another cruise somewhere in the world. Great service by all of the staff, comfortable bar and unique dinning room. We had the chance to explore Sacramento which even though we are long time california residents we had never done that. Nice two day experience, I would also recommend Moxie Restaurant in Midtown, great restaurant and the owner Adam is an excellent host.

If you are looking for a hotel rate comfort, don’t look here. It’s booking for an experience of being on a cruise without being there.
The mattress was uncomfortable, no drinking water. You have to buy a bottle. The cabins are pretty tight just like you would expect from being in a boat.

Very Charming hotel! Small but cute rooms with okay mattresses . Loud music being played on passing boats made it hard to sleep so use the earplugs provided, you'll need them. The food was great but there were issues that effected the service however Julian who seemed to be the only server made up for everything with his excellent attention to everyone and positive attitude. He is truly amazing. Waited a very long time for my car in the morning and the front desk people were not very helpful. It is an experience to stay there and so convenient to Old Town they could just use a little attention to some details and new beds.

What’s not to like about stepping back in time with a stay at the Delta King Hotel. It’s docked right on the Sacramento River. The rooms are small but they have everything you need. The in room coffee is really good tasting. Both the bar and grill and the restaurant’s food were very good. Breakfast was especially tasty. There isn’t an elevator but the friendly staff helped us up with our bags. Got a room on 4th deck on the river side. We stayed 2 nights and the location is great for exploring Old Sacramento.

This was so fun! Great hospitality from all staff. We walked across the bridge to a baseball game, short walk, which was fun. Felt safe the entire stay. So much to do within walking distance of the ship. Shopping, museums, food, you can spend a day or two just walking distance away. Room was small but expected on an old ferry, bathroom had a pull chain toilet. Would recommend! *****

the ac unit made a lot of noise and is blows directly at you. whoever slept on that side had cold air blowing straight on them. even when turned down, it was still freezing. the shower pooled up in one corner so water was not draining. didn't have complementary soap bars for shower or hand washing. no refrigeration so we couldn't keep anything cold. especially with how hot the weather was. Although the water front view was great, there were people just hanging out in the front making it feel unsafe to walk around at night. at one point, we saw some lounging just chilling on the back of a boat, which I'm sure they just hopped on. they gave us vouchers for free drinks, but the restaurants weren't open like the hours said. so we didn't even get the drinks. oh and our check in was delayed by almost an hour when we had an event to attend which we had to rush

We were confused when we saw ear plugs on the nightstands in our room - but they made sense when we heard the Sea Lions barking early in the morning. Not a big deal for us … but something to be aware of if you’re sensitive to such sounds.

It was my wife's b-day outing and It started out great with valet taking our car for $30 unlimited, a dinner at the bar and grill and free drink vouchers. The food was great and the drinks were good. But it all started going down hill from there. The front desk worker Cheryl treated us like we weren't guests for about an hour and told us the little drink shop was only for guests. Of course she apologized when I told her we were guests but you don't treat people like that you ask first instead of assuming.

Walking around the boat was nice but when we finally got to our room we immediately noticed how dusty they lamps, coffee machine, counter, and blinds were. At first we said it's an old place so it must get dusty fast but then we opened the blinds and after so the dust settled we saw a giant spider web on the inside of the window! That's disgusting because it shows they have not cleaned or duster the room in forever. I went straight to Cheryl and told her and she said \"I'm surprised\" and \"we're all booked sorry about that.\"

There was nothing we could do. So we slept on the firm bed in the dusty room. The next day we went back to the bar and grill excited for the food but it was a completely different experience! Turns out they had new chefs working that morning and the delicious calamari we ordered the previous day was not delicious anymore, the eggs Benedict were not cooked all the way you can see the egg white dripping down.

First of all, I would like to say that I love the Delta King. You can feel the history when you walk along the halls and it was very nostalgic.
I expected it to be a little funky because the boat is nearly 100 years old and I was right. The rooms are a little small and you have to pull a chain to flush the toilet, which I thought was cute. I stayed on the river side which was perfect! I woke up to seals every morning. The front desk staff were excellent, especially Albert!
The reason for giving it two stars is because I have been trying to get a hold of the manager, Apple Mota through email, and leaving multiple messages for a return call. As I was checking out, I told the front desk that I needed to speak with a manager and that it was very important and they said she would not be in until Friday and this was on Wednesday. I ended up writing a letter to Ms. Mota describing the incident that happened in my room. I was traveling alone without my husband and was put in a very uncomfortable and frightening position by one of the employees.
To me, the Delta King is like royalty among boats. No one should ever feel that way when they’re staying on a property and especially the Delta King. I’m embarrassed for them and their manager should be in the unemployment line. If I was in the position over her head, I’d certainly fire her on the spot!

Rooms are small and very overpriced for the size and amenities. The Sea Lions are on the dock across the river and bark all night long. The hotel does provide ear plugs but they don’t help much and the constant barking kept us up all night. The drinks are overpriced at $12 for a well drink. They give you vouchers for 2 drinks but it is limited to beer and house wine. If you want to stay on a 100 year old riverboat this is the place to do it but I wouldn’t recommend multiple nights. Your money is better spent elsewhere.

I have always wanted to stay at the Delta King. I love that it is a restored paddle wheeler built in Stockton docked on the river. It has beautiful wood details and views with a bar, restaurant and theater. I stayed in a river view room which was just big enough. One day I hope to splurge for the Captains Quarters with private access and enjoy a performance in the theater. The wait staff was attentive in the bar and restaurant. I loved the history displays on the 2nd floor and was able to take home some souvenirs. Be ready for some vocal residents (sea lions on the dock) Overall a memorable experience

I was expecting more for that price , $450 dlls for the small room and 30 dlls for valet parking and not even a complementary bottle of water in the room .. other thing you can see everything through the window because the curtains don't cover all , with all the respect that's very expensive place to stay ....

Bed was super uncomfortable, room was full of bugs and moths, water pressure nonexistent. The noise in the area was absolutely horrendous and we couldn’t sleep. It was the first time in my life I seriously considered checking out in the middle of the night to find a different hotel.

The Delta King is the perfect hotel for a stay in Old Sacramento. Easy walking distance from the train station, close to museums and shops. Entertaining wild life on the river including sea lions and geese. We had dinner at the restaurant and the service was excellent. The hotel itself is charming, and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud.

Everything about this place was great. Nice view, stay on a boat experience, friendly staff, clean rooms.
Only reason i had to give a poor rating is because of the constant noise from the sea lions next to the river that kept me awake all night. Never had such a poor sleeping experience anywhere. I know its not the property’s issue and it might not be a concern for many people. I am a light sleeper and had to attend a conference next day. This thing made it quite challenging to be at my best the next morning.

I opted to stay at the Delta King for a weekend baseball series at Sutter Health Park and was not disappointed! Walkable to the ballpark, Old Sacramento, and Downtown. I stayed in one of the smaller rooms, and although it lacked \"storage\" space, it was more than enough for me as a solo traveler (although the lack of a desk made remote work a bit challenging. Staff were kind and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

It was a beautiful view and nice clean cute room. The staff was absolutely kind and helpful and friendly. The bar and restaurant was very nice as well with above average food. The only downfall was the noise and chaos from Old Sacramento at night.we where woken up one night to a group af kids(not staying on the delta king) screaming and fighting. Did not feel safe that anyone can wonder on board and no security. It’s a shame because it’s a fun place to stay.

Check in got mixed up with another guests check in. I was over charged was supposed to get straightened out but hasn’t. Loud, obnoxious guests at the restaurant/bar. Thankfully the bartender finally cut them off but unfortunately didn’t make them leave even though they were not staying on the ship which left them still bothering guests.

The Delta King was a welcome change to the traditional hotel stay and made our recent visit to Sacramento a lovely experience. This historic riverboat is in a great location to Old Sacramento and the Golden One Center. Unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to take advantage of the amenities onboard. We would definitely stay here again.

Waiter, Julian @ The Pilot House was excellent! The outside bar/grill area servers were not attentive. Not one of the servers came to offer to take our order. The bar was easily accessible from the outside & we were able to order our own drinks and food.

Super cool and quirky place to stay while in Sacramento. It’s close to the stadium where we went to see an A’s game. Close to Old Town and plenty of food choices. Rooms are small but the charm of the boat makes up for that. Sea lions sing their song loud and proud so we used our ear plugs (they’re provided). We will be back!!

Nice place to stay, can't beat the location. The local seal lions on the river are noisy pretty much all night and early morning. Hotel did provide earplugs in the room.

A straight, short walk to Golden 1 Center, which was great for us. Awesome little room with great views of the river. Perfect for exploring Old-Town Sacramento as well. Would recommend. Extremely friendly and helpful staff as well, they had our car valeted at 6:45 for our early departure, which was so nice. However, we did not get to try out the restaurants. Emma's Tamales nearby is tasty though!

We only stayed for one night but we definitely plan to come back! The Delta King is a boat and it’s pretty cool! It’s on the river in the middle of old Sacramento. The front desk people are very friendly and valet was very easy to use, I highly suggest using the valet. The rooms are tiny but remember it’s an old historical boat. We were there for a concert so we really only were in the room to sleep. But there is so much to do and see around the Delta King you’re not going to want to just sit in the room. It was also very clean!!! I was actually surprised at how clean the room was for being a boat. The only thing we couldn’t figure out was the AC and I’m sure if we had asked the front desk they would have helped us but we didn’t even need it since it was a cold day anyways and I’m always cold lol. But seriously it was a great stay!

The boat was cute however the room was way overpriced for the size with zero amenities. There was a coffee maker in the room with no coffee or coffee filters. The room key was very tricky. It took numerous times to open the door

The bar was fun as was the wait staff

Great location however

Delightful hotel made out of a real decommissioned paddle wheeler. First time I’ve ever had ear plugs provided by a host and I needed them at 4 am because of the sea lions outside the hotel on the opposite shore!

The delta king is a fun place to stay. Our room was very clean and the staff was friendly. If you have a room on the river side you are treated to the song of sea lions barking at all hours though. Complimentary ear plugs are provided.

The Delta King provided a delightful alternative to a sterile hotel environment. It is an old converted river ship with gorgeous woodwork and features like a pull-chain toilet and 2 shower knobs to adjust hot and cold with good water pressure. The restaurant was good and the staff extremely attentive, friendly and interactive. Our room, while small, was clean and more than adequate with a great view of the river. Close to Old Sacramento tourist area with a great railroad museum. We totally enjoyed our stay
