My husband just picked this place off the web because his friend lives nearby - I was not expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was friendly and helpful and courteous, the rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable (I didn't see or feel any bedbugs!) and the location was very convenient - right next to the subway... more

Stayed for 6 nights in March 2009, neighbourhood is a little bit off putting but I felt very safe both here and throughout the subway system. Excellent clean room with King sized bed ( 7 ft wide) 32" flat screen tv, fridge, tea/coffee, free continental breakfast with plenty of cereals, juices,bagels, doughnuts, bread, bananas, tea and coffee. Excellent location only... more

I found the staff to be courteous and friendly. The hotel was very clean, my room was very quiet and comfortable. My only concern was the amount of parking provided, however that would not prevent me from staying at this hotel again. more

One of the better modest hotels in the area. Clean rooms, although -- as is the norm in New York -- not very large. Comfortable bed. Helpful staff. Location is good. It's in a respectable working class neighborhood of small stores and restaurants. Right next to a subway stop and within walking distance of the Jamaica Station transportation hub (buses... more

I called only to confirm the policy for weather related cancellations since we were anticipating our flight to be cancelled due to the snow in NY. The staff was firm that if not cancelled... more

I arrived late at this hotel, 1am and left early, 8am the next day so I didn't spend a lot of time at this hotel. A cold complementary breakfast is provided by the hotel. It is about 10 minute walk from Jamaica/AirTrain station and 5 minutes from the E train station at Van Wyke. I was in Manhatten within 1/2... more

We stayed at the Clarion hotel in Jamaica, NY Thanksgiving week 2008 and our experience (my boyfriend and I) there was overall very pleasant and comfortable - just what I hoped for and the reviews everywhere online were quite accurate. The room, bed, and restroom were very clean, comfortable, and a good place to leave luggage and sleep well after... more

I'm a frequent business traveler and I pay my own expenses, so I’m always in search of a balance between price and quality. I found it here at the Clarion. The Good: Better pricing and points toward free nights if you purchase through the choicehotels dot com website. Nice, though small rooms. I always stay alone, so space is usually... more
