We traded here thru Interval World . Being Time Share oriented we were initialy disappointed by its not being up to our usual TS expectations,however taking into consideration they were a conversion from a hotel to a TS we could understand their position. The location and view could not have been better. Ocean view and 3 blocks from Ruddee Inlet... more

This Hotel is at the quiet end of the beach near Rudee's Inlet. It was okay. We had a few maintenence issues and I must say that they responded very quickly each time. Our room was opposite the laundry and near the stairs, so there was constant door banging all night long. The beds were comfortable and the unit was... more

Our family booked the Clarion because it was the only place available through our timeshare exchange program for an oceanfront beach location on the east coast. After reading some of the previous reviews, I was becoming leary and worried about our experience. However, I have to say it was better than I expected. Here's what we liked and didn't...

The Clarion has a great location! The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The rooms were soundproof and had a tremendous view of the ocean and boardwalk. However they don't tell you, in the amenities, that there is a fee for wireless hookup, and the fitness center. I understand the fee for the services such as massage and tanning, but... more

The Clarion offered an okay stay the first night. The third day our room didn't get cleaned until 6:30 pm. My husband called to complain, but we didn't get any compensation. We were just told that there was no time frame for maid service. Needless to say, we were a bit peeved as we had been out all day and... more

On upper floors you can open them and you get a nice breeze. 2.Location directly on beach, next door to Mahi Mah's, a wonderful seafood restaurant. Make reservations for Mahi Mah's EARLY! Or you can get take out and... more

hotel is decorated very nice and it is clean. The room we stayed in was king bed with whirlpool tub. There is a toilet in a tiny little room with no vent and the tub is part of the main room so not much privacy. The walls are very thin, this is one of the noisier hotels I have stayed... more

my husband and i went with another couple to the clarion for our 14th wedding anniversary (my husband and i had room 804). the room itself was nice but the hot water didnt work in the jacuzzi and when we called to the front desk to complain, the maintenance crew had already left. he offered us a room w/o a... more

My husband, 10 year old daughter and myself stayed at this hotel over Memorial Day weekend this year. We got a great deal through Gold Key resorts, $299 for 5 days and tickets to the Patriotic Festival on the beach. But we did have to take a tour of the Ocean Beach club for 90 minutes to get this deal.... more
