Kayak.com (which searches multiple online sources) has some great deals on Hotels in Sacramento if you need a place to stay...
Holiday Inn- $108/night
Hyatt Regency- $118/night
The Citizen- $111/night
Marriott Residence Inn (downtown) -$139/night

There are lots more! I did a search 2.0 miles from city center so everything should be very close.
