• The location was excellent and the room was spacious for the price.
• I thought the breakfast was a bit pricey for what it was.

“This hotel had an updated feel and the location was in close proximity to Okemo Mountain. The standard room included two comfortable queen beds and a gracious bureau. The buffet style breakfast was good but a bit pricey at $11.95 per person. Overall, this was a nice place to stay for the price. With the proximity to Okemo Mountain and the village of Ludlow easily compensating for whatever shortcomings in value the hotel may have had. It would be nice if the free wireless Internet service was extended to the rooms instead of just the hotel lobby.”

• Nice, modern.
• The continental breakfast.

• Room was spacious.
• Lack of attention to details; desk clerk not particularly friendly or helpful.

“It was difficult to find the place because it goes by a different name on its exterior signs. Although the room decor was updated with a woodsy ski lodge decor, there was little attention to detail. (Tissue dispenser in the bathroom was empty, floor lamp was missing a light bulb.) Public spaces were not cozy or inviting.”

• Astoundingly nice furnishings.
• Poorly identified, incorrectly located by Map Quest (wrong address?).

“Spectacular room. As with any hotel, don't ask the late night desk clerk for anything, she has bigger problems of her own. I asked about in room free Wi-Fi and she looked at me as if I expected too much and laughingly said I must pay for extra services. Undoubtedly she's in debt above her head yet looks down upon others that want anything more than a room for the money paid for staying there. I was lucky enough to get a room by the lobby so I did receive poor reception Wi-Fi in my room (free wireless access in lobby). Go to Rutland for breakfast and don't miss Dakin Farm up route 7 if you head towards Shelburne.”

• Exceeded our expectations on every level. Will definitely return!
• The dining facilities were not open the night we were there.

“We had to call the hotel because we got lost on the way. The staff was very helpful In guiding us to their location. Once we arrived, we were greeted by the same, friendly staff that also provided us with a list of restaurants In the area. The facility was much nicer than we expected, especially for the price. I've paid almost twice the rate we got for a facility that wasn't half this nice. The entire facility was very clean and the room was Immaculate - very nicely furnished and had an HDTV In the room, as well! Clean, comfortable and quiet - with a very accommodating staff. What more could you want? We will definitely plan to stay at this hotel again when visiting Vermont/new Hampshire again! I highly recommend them.”

• There was a computer available for guests to use for free.

“The signage for this hotel is terrible. It is not the Clarion Hotel, which made it confusing & difficult to find. The room was quite dark with a floor lamp that was broken. The desk clerk prepared us to see yellow water from the Fawcett, but there wasn't a good explanation as to why. The continental breakfast was sadly lacking.”

• Continental breakfast consisted on one muffin, which was warm.
• Dump carpets in public areas and three rooms shown were stained and stiff with dirt.

“Needs complete renovation. Three rooms, all with stained, dirty carpet and chipped, old, dirty furniture. Public spaces had stained, dirty carpets; and were poorly maintained. After much persistence on our part, finally given a recently renovated room. The hotel makes the offer of rooms at a price they set, and no matter how a customer obtains the room the product should be the same.”

• The room was very spacious and the shower head was the best I've ever used.
• Nothing.

“I arrived late and was greeted very nicely by the desk clerk. Check-in was quick and our room was great. The hotel was very accommodating as I had called earlier in the day to notify them that we would be traveling with one child and would our room be able to handle it. The clerk instantly changed our room to one that solved the problem. The continental breakfast was a great surprise and our check out was quick and smooth.”

• The front desk clerk was foreign and not really informed.

“The hotel was fine for an overnight and was convenient to nearby town for food and entertainment.”

• Great location - near Okemos and a half hour ride to Killington and Pico.
• The hotel fronts a two lane highway - not really an issue if windows are closed.

“The Clarion is a great place to stay if you are looking for a inexpensive ski weekend. Rooms are large and can accommodate 4 adults nicely (ask for a room with 2 queen size beds). The indoor pool was being renovated, so we were able to use the outdoor spa at the Castle Resort next door - -fantastic perk! See if you can get a comp pass to go there. Eat at Sam's steak house right down the road and Wicked Pizza.”

• The private hot tub was lovely.
• The hot tub in the pool area was not hot enough.

“A very pleasant place to stay with friendly staff. The decor was in keeping with the Vermont countryside and our room was ample in size.”

• A great place if you are going to ski Okemos.
• Not enough hot water, very disappointing after a day on the slopes - pool and hot tub not inviting due to a high iron water problem and discoloration.

“A great place to stay to ski, large rooms, hot tub and indoor pool terribly unattractive- won't they know how to shock treat their pool? Nice staff.”

• Very close to Okemos and spa.
• Indoor pool "heated" but cool temperature.

“Very close to Okemos. Very good value. Spa was excellent, even if you just spend the little $ to have access for the day to the hot tub, heated outdoor pool, and fitness equipment.”

• Nice pool near good restaurant.
• Not much around.

“Nestled in the rolling Vermont hills the Clarion is adjacent to the Castle Spa which has a wonderful restaurant. The nearby town of Ludlow is quaint if not a tad dull. We stayed here on our way to the Calvin Coolidge site in Plymouth Notch which was only 20 minutes away. The indoor pool and hot tub were a nice feature.”

“Very nice clean hotel, however breakfast was not included on weekends which we did not find out about until arrival at the hotel. However, we found a very nice little diner in Rutland for breakfast.”
