“Great location, pricey and staff are not all nice.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

Positives.
Close to La Guardia Airport. You can actually walk to the airport if you're not carrying too much luggage. Otherwise the free shuttle is very handy. It is also within walking distance to Budget which was great for me. Room was clean and cozy. No airport noises.
Negatives.
Staff are hit and miss. First person I dealt with was super friendly and accommodating, 2nd one was not so to the extent that she couldn't even be bothered to print me a receipt for my stay! Pricey. Rooms arn't all the same. 1st room I stayed in appeared to be newer and had an lcd tv 2nd room not as new (though both were perfectly clean). Bath was poorly designed, I'm not a big person yet showering was a tight squeeze.
Despite the negatives I still feel this stay was overall very good. I would consider staying again but maybe only if the price is cheaper.

Room Tip: There are lots of rooms some are furtherer then others. Try to get one in the main building but not...

Dear Shazam10,

Thank you for taking the time to review our property. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the accommodations comfortable. As you mentioned our hotel is super close to LaGuardia which does make walking possible--and on a nice day can be quite pleasant. That said, our shuttle to LaGuardia does run 24hrs a day and takes under 10 minutes to get from the hotel to the terminal. We are the closest and our shuttle service is top notch. With regards to the rooms--all the 169 rooms were fully renovated in the last two years and just last month we completed the TV upgrade and ALL 169 rooms now have LCD Flat screens, I am happy to say. We are constantly striving to improve all our services, so I hope you have the opportunity to stay with again and see what changes have been made.
Thank you again,
Vanessa Penson
Manager

“Great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

Myself and my employees have stayed here a couple of times and will do many more times in the future. The hotel is very clean, the beds comfortable, the staff extremely courteous and attentive, the manager Vanessa was very professional and took personal care of my reservations even though they were last minute and changed on a moments notice.We do work in Manhattan and this place is ideally located. The food is excellent and reasonably priced.

Tim

Room Tip: All of the rooms are great.

Hi Tim!
Thank you for your kind words and review. Like the rest of the staff here I try hard to make every stay special. Meeting the varying individual needs of my groups and guests can be tough, but keeps me on my toes!
As always I thank you for choosing the Clarion whenever you are in the area.
Have a great day!

“Decent airport hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012

Ideally located for the airport, and from the airport the NYC Airporter bus drops you right in Manhattan.
Comfortable room, quiet, down to earth (not corporate & stuffy like so many airport hotels). Restaurant = basic, but free continental breakfast.

Dear Andrew D,

Thank you for your review. It is always good to hear guests are pleased with their stay. I'm particularly pleased to see that you feel the Clarion is down to earth and not stuffy. We strive to make people comfortable and feel at home. I see that you tried our on site restaurant. We have daily specials to spice up the established classic menu fare always available, hopefully next time you will be able to try something new.

Our prices coupled with our convenient location do make us a great choice when visiting New York.
I hope we will have the pleasure of serving you again in the future.
Best,
Vanessa Penson

“Ok for a night”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

I stopped here because flight was delayed and it was too late to drive upstate. The room is adequate for a brief stay, but it needs serious remodeling. The tub finish is almost worn off and generally the bath is small and minimalist. The bed is comfortable, however. I would not want to be here for much more than a night.

“Small rooms but perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

The regular rooms are a little bit small, location is perfect to la guardia airport. Parking is not too expansive for a new-york hotel. Very clean A1 service.
