“happy new year”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 11, 2012

We go to the Clarion every year for their new years eve party.The food is great ,top shelf open bar .The band plays good music and the staff is friendly. We party till it ends at 3 a.m. The next day we relax at the pool or hot tub,watch football at the bar in the hotel and just have a great day.

“Good enough - stayed with my dog.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 3, 2012

Stayed here with my dog. I was testing taking him on trips with me. The hotel is not brand new and spotless but it is not bad. The dog fee is $35 per night which I don't understand. A second person would have had more of an impact than a medium sized dog. The provisions for dogs is very good. There is an outside pet play/do their business area that is fenced in. I have stayed here before and would do so again. The food here has always been very good. They have a new outside pool.

“Nice hotel at the beach.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2012

My wife and I stayed here for Corvette weekend in early Oct. it's big enough to hold a few hundred corvettes and owners, and has a hall for entertaining and food for a crowd. Place is in good shape, and the staff were nice. Check-in and out we're very fast. I'm sure all of the 'vette owners appreciated the large parking spaces as well - no dinged doors!

“First time taking a dog on a trip”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 15, 2012

This was my husband and I first stay at this hotel and also our first time traveling with our dog. I thought the hotel was very nice and clean. Check in was very quick and when I asked some questions the front desk was very knowledgable. The room had a nice view of the beach and was very clean for being a pet room. Housekeeping does a great job!! The dog park area was really nice, that is one reason why we choice this hotel over another Choice hotel. I can't trust my dog off leash, so this was a nice way for him to be off leash and stretch his legs. When we stepped out the second day I let front desk know so that the housekeeper could clean our room and she had it done by the time we got back. Everyone was very friendly! We hope to come again off season, since that is the only time dogs are aloud on the boardwalk.

“Clarion - Ocean City”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

I didn't notice any big problems here. Except I was told I was being upgraded to an ocean view and no extra charge, and I was charged extra. If I hadn't paid attention I would have paid for it all, but the staff was very nice when I brought it to their attention and fixed it promptly. My room was nice. I was here for a conference and the food service was great and the bartender in the ball room was an amazing good sport for our scavenger hunt game. I would stay here again. I did hear complaints about the heaters not working for a few people, but my room was nice.
