Is there a specific reason you are considering a stay at that location in West Sacramento? It is pretty much no where. West Sacramento is a different city than Sacramento BTW. It's on the west side of the Sacramento River.
The Homestead is outside the park at the south entrance. The valley is over an hour's drive from there. Look into Yosemite View in El Portal. It's just outside the Arch Rock Entrance european car rentals from north america on the west side, close to the valley and right on the Merced River.
I would not stay at the Ramada Inn Plaza in West Sacramento. It is a horrible location...in an industrial area near nothing. If you give me an idea of what you are trying to see in Sacramento, I can give you suggestions for better placed hotels/motels.
If you want a bargain - try Priceline for downtown Sacramento (though parking might be an issue). There are several terrific properties that come up regularly. Or, if you want to shop - look at one of places near Arden Fair mall.
For Bryce, you don't want to stay near Zion. If you can't get lodging in the park, there are several places about a mile from the park entrance. We stayed at the Bryce View Lodge; comfortable room. It's cheaper than Ruby's across the street, and we were able to use the pool and other amenities at Ruby's.
For Sacramento -- I agree with the others. Our group today are staying in two hotels that we've all stayed at in the past, which are both great location-wise, european car rentals from north america and price-wise. One-half european car rentals from north america is staying at the Holiday Inn Capitol Plaza and the other (like me) at the Marriott Residence Inn. Both have a variety of price ranges. I like the residence inn because we can get a 2 room, one bedroom suite with almost a full kitchen, very nicely appointed, very big, and includes buffet breakfast (excellent!). There's a pool (currently the area around the pool is being renovated, but the pool seems currently accessible), a work out room (fairly european car rentals from north america outstanding and clean machines) and a laundry room. We paid aout $85/night with a government rate.
There is no specific reason for staying in West Sacramento... I just saw it was maybe in between since we will be traveling to San Francisco-Muir Woods and Napa Valley, european car rentals from north america and THEN to Yosemite. I wanted european car rentals from north america something maybe a little central but not QUITE downtown in case traffic gets really bad.....
By staying in Sac to visit SF, Napa, and Muir Woods, you will be doing a lot of driving back and forth. For this portion of your trip, I'd stay closer to the areas you are planning to visit - the driving time you'll save those days will more than make up for the extra drive time the day you head up to Yosemite.
If you want to do both -- then stay a couple of days in SF/Napa and then a day in Sacramento. But that might change where you'd want to fly into . . . (SMF is a good airport for Napa - but not for San Francisco)
Stayed at Desert Pearl in Springdale for Zion/Bryce several european car rentals from north america years ago and found it quite satisfactory, attractive location european car rentals from north america on a little river. I'd check some reviews since things change, but it worked well for us in '06. Hotels pretty basic in Springdale as is typical around national parks but Desert Pearl was probably the best one at the time and a couple european car rentals from north america of restaurants in Springdale were pretty good. Ate lunch at BW Ruby's at Bryce on that trip and was not impressed european car rentals from north america with the food or the exterior appearance of the motel. Next month we're spending a night in Bryce in order to drive Rt. 12 to Torrey the next day and I'm going to try the [new? or refurbished and name changed?] european car rentals from north america BW Bryce Canyon Grand Hotel. Still stuck with eating at a Ruby's-owned restaurant, it appears. european car rentals from north america Also plan to try BW Greenwell, so hope for both of our sakes it's okay.
If you are just going to do a quick visit to Sacramento and want to position yourself for a beautiful drive to Yosemite, I suggest staying near Folsom (yea, where the prison that inspired Johnny Cash's song is located). My suggestion is to take Hwy 49 ( www.historichwy49.com ) to Yosemite. Hwy 49 travels through the California Gold Country steeped with history and small towns. You do not have to take Hwy 50 to Placerville to join up with it. One way is to take Latrobe Road (off Hwy 50 just east of Folsom) until it dead ends at Jackson Road (also called State Rt. 16) then left. Within a few miles, it intersects with Hwy 49. Much, much more interesting than taking Hwy 99.
