The boutique hotel, The Sawyer, across from the Golden 1 Center in downtown Sacramento has revealed plans for Revival at The Sawyer, the first-ever rooftop pool, bar and lounge in the city. Located on the third floor, Revival at the Sawyer overlooks the arena and the Downtown Commons (DOCO) and aims to bring a nightlife experience to Sacramento. Here are 5 things to know about Revival at the Sawyer:1) It's not just a massive pool, but it's also a restaurant The 200-seat Revival restaurant highlights local farm-to-fork cuisine. Executive Chef Patrick Prager will create culinary menus reflecting the poolside vibe during the daytime and elevated bites in the evening to complement the ambiance of the space and nightlife. Cocktails featuring local spirits and seasonal ingredients will round out the bar menu along with local brews on tap. There will also be elevated bottle service, according to the Kimpton Hotels, which owns the The Sawyer. 2) Luxury poolside There will be seven cabanas along the pool. Access to the swimming pool is reserved for The Sawyer guests and residents of the luxury condos called Residences at the Sawyer, but the public is free to roam around the pool area. People who rent cabanas will also have access to the pool.3) The vibe continues into the nightAt 6 p.m., Revival at the Sawyer turns into a "high-energy lounge," featuring music and DJs. The hotel said it won't necessarily be a nightclub, but it will have a lounge atmosphere that's open until 2 a.m. on weekends.4) It won't break the bankPrager said food and drinks will start at $7 and go up to about $50 for a special caviar dish. The menu is in development, so there is no sneak peek into specific menu items yet.5) You'll probably want to come here on event nightsIf the Golden 1 Center opens its retractable glass doors during concert or game nights, Revival at the Sawyer guests will be able to hear the shows and see some of the court action from the rooftop.
