Hotels Near Shephard Garden & Art Center | McKinley Park in Sacramento

This price is still ok.

Overall: would stay again! Nice hotel, room, bar, food, very convenient location. LOCATION: Convenient! Right next to DOCO and the Golden 1 Center. Old Sac is a few minutes walk away. Public transport nearby. HOTEL: The decor was a lovely, sophisticated, modern take on various historical periods. Music is a theme, nodding to the historic past of the building. Balcony bar - Art Deco. Clean, eye-catching, charming. Emerald velvet chairs and gold-toned metal accents, whimsical 1920’s & ‘30’s music playing overhead, and servers dressed in simple roaring ‘20’s attire. Menu: Small bites. Phyllo baked brie, oysters, ahi poke, short ribs, Asian lettuce wraps, and more. 1st floor restaurant - “7th Street Standard”, is the name. Bright & elegant with simplicity. This restaurant can be a standalone; it’s better than a “hotel restaurant” in food quality, artistry, and presentation. Didn’t eat here this time, but have before. I recall everything being good! Great drinks last time!! Had happy hour drinks this time ($10), still great! Handcrafted, fresh, subtle sweetness for balance, nothing syrupy or fake-colored (reg price $15). Happy hour food and drinks available 3-6pm. Full menu includes trout, salmon, pork belly, and other goodies. ROOM: I like the decor. The lamps were cool: gold dipped bulbs, bronze-colored cones, retro meets are deco feel. There’s a handy motion-censored light under the bathroom vanity when you don’t want to turn on a bright light at night, light-framed mirror for easy getting ready, spacious bathroom. Views from my particular room were not worth seeing. Good blackout curtains in-room, lots of natural light when open. Bathroom basics included: shampoo, conditioner, lotion soap. Not included: q-tips, cotton balls, etc. The mini fridge could fit some small leftover food boxes. Plenty of outlets near the bed. I don’t recall any food snacks offered for sale. $5 Fiji. Open rack closet, and drawers available. I believe my room was 320 sqft, with enough space to roll out a mat and do a room workout, if that’s your thing (or gym on 4th floor). AREA OFFERINGS: There’s a Starbucks Reserve steps from the hotel and many places to eat, drink & entertain within easy walking distance (steakhouse, bowling alley, movies, rooftop pool bar, beer vault, and SO much more!). While it’s a nice area (million-dollar condos and attractions next door), another block over in one direction becomes a not-so-nice area (homelessness and refuse), so just be mindful of what direction you’re heading, if that bothers you. PARKING: There are unattended daily parking lots right next to the hotel ($13-$16ish/10hrs), hourly metered parking, attended hourly/daily lots, valet ($40 seems to get you 2-day parking with in & out privileges; I valeted early evening, pickup needed before 2:45-ish a.m. on the third day). Valet had a very easy texting system. They texted me my valet ticket with a clickable link to call my car when desired. The link let me know the progress of my incoming car (“requested”, “on the way”, “ready”), so I knew exactly when I needed to head out and could enjoy my time until then. You can tip through the link, too.

I really enjoyed my stay! Even though my stay was only for a night, I felt like The Exchange had everything I needed. The front desk was super helpful when calling my car from valet

We went for a short term stay June 17th,2023. Arrived at the hotel around 10:15PM. Our reservation was for room 256 two queen beds no smoke room. Check ins at 3 we got there at 10:15 and the room was not clean the beds were not done. We could put our daughter to sleep there after hunting down some staff they offered to move us rooms. The next room the gave us room 260 wasn't much better there were no curtains no privacy for me and my family and the bed lamps didnt work. They moved us to a third room, room 241, at this point it's 11:40pm we have been carrying our luggage from room to room and my four year old daughter is getting more and more upset, we are tired and exhausted and there is no manager to be found apparently he takes the weekends off. Then they have the audacity to offer us a measly 10% discount for this mess. This hotel is not habitable for children i urge you to consider a different choice for your stay.

Clean and well organized. Large space and newly opened. Worth to stay

The environment is beautiful, the health is not wrong, the sound is not good, the coughing and snoring next door, the breakfast waiter is particularly enthusiastic, the service is also thoughtful, the kind of American breakfast should have!

Our last stay was 2/4/22-checking out 2/8/22 I like the location of this hotel It's right next to Black Bear dinner, Burger King, Truck Stop I suggest if you order from Black Bear get the food to go service sucks, food is cold but I have found when I pick up to go the food is fresh and hot. This location does not do upgrades, at east not for me anyways. A golf course is right down the road. Breakfast always has great options

Clean, new and big rooms. Highly recommended, great place.

Such a nice place! Thank you!
