Cedar Point's Express Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Check-in was easy and the early entry pass is great."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Port Clinton, OH

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay went real well. The staff was very helpful."

Clinton Inn And Suites

10/10 Excellent

"theeeeee best"

Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Port Clinton Catawba Island

8/10 Good

"Stayed in a larger room with two queen beds and a couch which was so nice to have the extra space with 4 adults! Found a used washcloth on top of the shower curtain upon arrival which was somewhat disappointing because it makes you feel like the room may not have been cleaned properly but overall a good room!! The front desk staff were very helpful, friendly, and even funny! The outdoor terrace and fire pit was also very nice with a beautiful view as well. The seating had some stains on it but I’m sure that can be difficult to keep clean. Wish there was a bar and restaurant on site. Overall a great stay though!"

Best Western Port Clinton

"My only complaint is it just doesn’t seem worth almost $400. Seems overpriced"
