"Permanently moored in Sacramento since 1984, the riverboat is now a somewhat gimmicky but charming hotel." Full review

"A 1926 paddle-wheel riverboat now permanently moored on the waterfront. Although the rooms fail to justify their “stateroom” advertising, the vessel makes an enjoyably unusual place to stay."
Michelin Guide Michelin Guide
"During Prohibition, this "floating pleasure palace" ran from Sacramento to San Francisco. Today the red paddle-wheeler remains on the Sacramento River in Old Town."
Gayot Gayot
"Like the Delta Queen, its sister hotel moored on the Mississippi River, an onboard stay conjures images of Mark Twain and the romance of the Wild West."

"It's a kitschy treat to sleep aboard the Delta King, a 1927 paddle wheeler docked on the river in Old Sacramento. It lights up like a Christmas tree at night." Full review
