Clarion Hotel BeachfrontClarion Hotel Beachfront Gayle from Noblesville stayed in August 2015It was nice, this is the first that we have visited the city, I Believe that I would have liked to stay in a newer hotel. Breakfast needs improvement like yogurts and fruit. Not everyone wants a waffle, eating healthy should be a priority or at least give more options. The city is beautiful And the people of the community were so very courteous And helpful. The trolley ride is a given and the ferries over To the island were awesome. I just think the Clarion could Use some updating especially for the price we paid per night.These comments are from a verified stay122 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|
Clarion Hotel BeachfrontClarion Hotel Beachfront Cathy from Yorkville stayed in August 2015They were very concerned for their guests and available to answer questions. We had an unusual circumstance where we had to leave a day earlier than our planned stay because of illness and a trip to the hospital. I think they were able to book the room w/someone else & we weren't charged for last day. Because of this, they will be our preferred hotel when we come up from now on. Thank you!These comments are from a verified stay134 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|

Clarion Hotel BeachfrontClarion Hotel Beachfront Shelly from Toledo stayed in October 2014The breakfast area was huge! (A great plus) But, there were some items that the hotel didn't have, that would have been an added plus. I ran the half marathon on Mackinac Island, and really needed simple carbs and fruit. The only fruit there was, was a fruit cocktail. Whole fruits, by themselves would have been great. Also, yogurt would be a plus. I loved that they had four waffle stations, so people didn't have to stand in line and wait while others used just one machine!These comments are from a verified stay136 people found this helpful.
