Very nice place. I’d say likely the best in Kenora for sure. It’s all been renovated recently. The prices are a bit higher than others in the town but looking at all the others the Clarion is by far the winner
Nice dock area to walk out on and relax

Berzon

Liked: Staff & service
hotel is nice because its new. But the room is small for a family. Hotel room rate is sooo expensive for a small room. Everything inside the room (garbage bins, sink, microwave, space inside room is sooo minimal). Not worth the price, but staff are accomodating and nice. 3 star rating for the stay and rate.

Nice lake view room with floor to ceiling windows. Newly renovated rooms are clean and comfortable. A continental breakfast should be included for this price. Especially considering the restaurant is not open due to renovations.

Cozy and clean room with a great view of the lake (Room 611), especially of the Canada Day fireworks! Staff is friendly and efficient. Walking distance to downtown area and lots of shops/restaurants. Wish their restaurant was open for convenience
