This hotel was great! The people are so nice and friendly! I have a family of 5 2ad and 3ch. The front desk staff was so nice to my kids and made them feel so at home.
The gentleman in the bar was great, good customer service, always had a smile on his face.
The pool was great big and roomy. Kids were in the pool when we would get back from Disneyland.
Shuttle was very easy just bought tickets and the shuttle came up to the hotel and right to Disney.
Both restaurants the food was very good. Service was excellent!! Great promotions.
I will be back for sure, Thank you Clarion and Disneyland for such a great vacation.

Due to my career I have stayed at many hotels over the years, this was probably the worst. The carpet had a grimy feel to it, the couch was stained with god knows what in several places, the shower floor felt and sounded as though it was going to give way under feet ( I'm an average size guy 195#'s), I got bit several times by something while sleeping, there is no Jacuzzi (who in the world owns a hotel with no Jacuzzi), I will say the service in the restaurant for breakfast was excellent (even though the food was horrible), they have two different bar tenders that they trade from one night to the next, Bartender A (early thirties/nice guy) did a great job, good service excellent food and drinks, Bartender B (mid twenties/smaller guy) Was horrible, it was impossible to get anything but a bad attitude from this guy... Had my reservations not been previously made by my employer I would have checked out and went to one of the other hotels. I have already contacted the individual that schedules our out of town trips and suggested that we no longer use this hotel.

good value for money
clean and tidy.
jeff the concierge was very good. only issue was the 4 block walk to disneyland
would stay again

Pros:
* This hotel is located within easy walking distance (< ¼ mile) from the Anaheim Convention Center. The Disneyland/California Adventure entrance from Harbor Blvd is about ¾ mile away.
* This hotel is considerably less expensive than the Marriot and Hilton hotels which are located between it and the convention center.
* Free LAN (wired) and WiFi (wireless) internet access.

Cons:
* I have stayed in nicer hotels for much less money in the area. These hotels are further away (1/2 – ¾ mile) from the Convention Center, but are closer to Disney.
* Parking fees.
* Small pool, no hot tub/spa.
* Noise – one night there was a noisy late night drinking party (until about 2 AM) on the balcony of another (non-adjacent) room in that kept me from sleeping.

Recently I have returned from a large conference at the Anaheim Convention Center. The Clarion was one of about two dozen “official” hotels for the convention which were located in the Convention Center/Disney area. The Clarion was chosen by the company that I work for because of its close proximity to the convention center and its lower cost than the adjacent Marriot and Hilton Hotels. The “convention” room rate for a standard room at the Clarion was $129; and up to four guests were allowed per room. (Note: Sometimes you can find discounted room rates on the web which are much better than official convention rates – but, since I didn’t make the reservation at the Clarion, I did not investigate this option.)

I have rated the Clarion as average because it met my basic needs (-- a clean place to sleep and an internet connection)..

The Clarion’s main advantage to me was its close location to the convention center. (However, since I enjoy walking and since conference bus service was available from the other hotels, this had limited value-added to me.)

The Clarion’s main disadvantage was its cost: Based on my two prior trips to the Convention Center/Disney area, I would rate this hotel as a poor value (at the $129 room price plus parking) as the other hotels/motels I have stayed in have offered better amenities at a fraction of the Clarion’s price. (Because I had considered having my family join me in Anaheim after the conference, I checked the price of one of the other hotels. It had a weekday $68/night rate for two adults/1 child and a weekend (Friday/Saturday) $99/night rate), with free parking. This hotel is closer to Disney, but further from the convention center.)

In conclusion, if close proximity to the convention center at moderate cost is important, the Clarion may be a suitable choice for you. However, if you are on a limited budget and/or are more interested in being closer to the main gate of Disneyland, you should investigate other hotels.
