The in-house restaurant has it all
You don’t even have to leave this hotel in order to enjoy a night on the town because the in-house restaurant and bar has it all. The food is delicious and the nightly live music is great. Add to that, the big screen TVs with sports channels, and you will find that you are thoroughly entertained.

The property needs an update
Although the hotel is clean, the décor is dated and a bit past its prime. Carpeting and furnishings that have seen better days are the worst offenders.

There’s a charge for breakfast
Clarion Hotel and Conference Center Toms River does provide a hot breakfast buffet but unlike many hotels in this chain, it is not complimentary and a fee will apply.
negative:
There are only elevators on one side of the hotel
There are elevators on the East side of the property but not on the West side where the rooms are only reachable via the stairs. If you have problems with low mobility or have a lot of luggage in tow, be sure to mention this when booking.
