Stayed at Clarion because there were a number of newborns staying with my parents during Christmas. They charged us over $100 for one night. For $100, the should be ASHAMED. I knew it was under construction, but the level of it was DISGUSTING. They have been bought be Double Tree, so these reviews won't matter one the construction is done.... More

I did a recent job interview at ESPN and this Clarion is the place they typically shack candidates up at. Not only is the sprawling ESPN campus about half a mile away, but there's a massive tower-like landmark across the street from this hotel: the Otis Elevator company.

The breakfast was nice with fresh grapefruit, bagels, yogurt, cereal, etc. The rooms themselves were clean and very comfortable. That being said, the hotel is a mess with... More

This time we stayed with relatives but we highly recommended the Clarion for her, based on previous experience, and we paid for the hotel. When we entered the parking lot, we were mortified at the horrible appearance of the property's exterior. The outside of the... More

There were 70 friends attending the party, and the food was great, and the service was better! Some of us booked rooms, and they were great. So good -... More
