“Clarion Hotel Mackinaw City Beachfront emphasizes its direct access to a private white sand beach and proximity to Mackinac Island ferry services; customizable meeting rooms also make this a place to do business. While some areas could use refreshing, the hotel's location and included breakfast still make it a reasonable choice in a popular area. I would recommend it for travelers seeking convenience over luxury.”
