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

My husband and I were visiting family and this is the most convienient place to stay, we have returned to the Clarion for several years. It is currently being remodeled, but this was a minor inconvience. They are now offereing free breakfast, very nice and appreciated. The rooms are ok, but the walls are paper thin, you can hear clearly... More

The idea of a hotel chain is that no matter where you are you know that when you see a particular name your going to receive a level of expected service. Well, sadly for the Clarion chain my experience with the Dunkirk property left me weary of every relying on their properties again. Being under construction is no excuse for... More

We have stayed at the Clarion several times including on the night of our wedding and this stay was just as great as the rest. We had an in room jacuzzi suite. The room was clean, as was the jacuzzi. Service was quick- we called for extra towels once and toothpaste once and both calls were answered very quickly. You... More

We booked this based on the halfway point for us for a recent road trip, and the fact that we thought being on the water would be a pretty view. Wrong. The hotel is in a very bad part of town. The place was crowded, dirty, and loud. The room we were given was unbelievable. The ceiling had fallen in... More
