Yes it is true - you're on Lake Erie! Also true what the other review said - hard to see through the dirty windows. We stayed there while at our wedding. The whirlpool jets fell apart when we first truned it on. Lousy patch jobs of holes in the walls. Used a bank VISA card to pay and it wouldn't... More

One of the better hotels in the area. Room comfortable, but I hate in the wall heat controls that are noisy. More

Decent food. Horrible service. Sat for a 1/2 hour before we even saw a waitress. They ran out of Pepsi. What restaurant runs out of Pepsi? Waffle station was extremely slow. Had 2 wait in line for a tiny waffle. Not worth it. Will never eat here again & wouldn't recommend to others. More

The best part about this stay was the view of Lake Erie... But it was hard to see out of the room window because of the dirty windows... and Im not sure if it was because we were so close to the water or not but there were spiders EVERYWHERE! through the stairwells and outside the building and if you...

We stopped by for a night in late rainy night in December. It wasn't very busy, which is to be expected, as it appears that this place really shines in the summer with it's lakeside location, outdoor pool and deck bar. I'll have to come back then. Otherwise, our visit was great. Speedy check-in, spectacular lobby and good room. Comfy... More

We stay here each year in September for a Western NY/PA winery tour and grape picking weekend. The property is nice (right on the lake) next to the public boat launch, the rooms are clean, and the internet works great. Check in and out has always been easy (both right at check in time and late in the evening), and... More

We've stayed at four different Dunkirk/Fredonia hotels over the past few years, but never the Clarion until recently. It is certainly superior to the hideous Days Inn and decent if not spectacular. Parts of the facility are well maintained (nice lobby, decent restaurant/bar) while other areas are tacky (the carpet in our room was repaired with duct tape in two... More

First let me start out by saying that my husband & I have stayed @ this hotel many time over the years. There appears to be some up dating going on. Outside of the front lobby landscapers were erecting a retaining wall. The lobby was pleasant & inviting looking. Check in was easy we asked for an early check in... More

Was here for a wedding. Goods and bads. First the bad- Incompetent and rude staff messed up my reservation and then wanted to charge me more. Poor water pressure in shower. Oh, and my phone would not work at all in the room. Also, it's in the crap-hole of Dunkirk, so..... And the goods- pretty comfortable room and bed. And... More

Dunkirk is not Palm Beach and doesn't pretend to be. The other chain motels might be nicer, but rather than having a view of a magnificent Great Lake you can see ( and hear) the interstate. Nice spot to be 'stuck' in....nice view of the marina, cute shopping area next door ( ice cream, gifts, Irish pub) a perfectly adequate... More

Thank you for a positive review. Due to summer rush, our renovations fell behind schedule, and we will be working to finish them as fast as possible. We do hope you visit us again, in the near future. Thank you again, and we look forward to seeing you again. More
