Clarion Hotel Beachfront Michelle from Walled Lake stayed in September 2009

We were taking our Mom to Mackinaw for her 80th birthday, so we asked for a 1st floor room overlooking the lake for her special day and to please not substitute. They not only gave us what we requested, but an even bigger room on a corner with extra windows. The staff was very friendly and helpful, both in person and on the phone. All of the areas (reception,rooms,pool,free brunch and beach)were clean, warm and inviting. The parking was close to the room and the free brunch was tasty and offered something for everyone. Our family is planning on making this an annual event and we will definitely stay at this hotel again next time.

Clarion Hotel Beachfront Bradley from Merrill stayed in September 2009

My family and I usually stay at the Clarion during the Mackinac Island 8.2 mile race. On that Saturday it would be helpful for the runners to be able to have the breakfast buffet a 1/2 hour earlier. It is a little rush to eat and get to the boat. Just a thought. Thanks, Brad Harris

Clarion Hotel Beachfront James from Oceanside stayed in October 2009

Hotel was great and this is my 3rd year staying there, however we always seem to be placed in the Northwest Corner of the Hotel where the Wi-Fi is very bad and it's hard to get internet service, if they could add a few more hotspots in that location I would have given them a rating of Outstanding, We will see what happens this year as I expect to be back again in Oct.

We had a very nice stay at the Clarion. We think the only thing we would have changed was the location of the breakfast area, which we know is not possible due to the layout. Otherwise room, service and breakfast was great!

Clarion Hotel Beachfront Christina from Erie stayed in September 2009

I hve stayed at the Clarion on many trips to mackinaw city and it is always excellent. The breakfast bar is great, the hotel is clean and quiet, in a wonderful location, and the staff is always more than friendly. On more than one occasion, I arrived slightly earlier than I anticipated and was still furnished with a room at the time. They are terrific!
