Park Place Hotel

Overall it was an ok hotel, overpriced. The internet wasn’t good at all and I ended up not using it. The breakfast experience was mediocre - understaffed so it took a while, watery coffee

Overall not impressed. Staff was not friendly nor overly helpful. Room was loud, dated, tv didn’t work, air conditioning barely worked, took over 12 hours to cool down 5 degrees. Bathroom didn’t drain properly.

The beds were not the most comfortable. Room was dated.

The location was great for the Traverse Lake area without being on Front Street. Easy walking to restaurants, clubs, shops etc.

Pros: great location within easy walking distance to downtown restaurants, bars, shopping, beach. Free parking. Staff was nice. Room was very clean. Cons: old and needs an update. The carpet all over the hotel (hallways and rooms and elevators) is filthy. Wallpaper is peeling off everywhere. Bathrooms are tiny. AC is centrally controlled. We had previously stayed here ~15 years ago. It does not appear that any updates have been done in the past 15 years. For the price of the room, I expected it to be a bit nicer.

This hotel must have been something in its hey day, but that has long since passed. Our room was clean but it smelled old and mildewy. The fact that you can't open a window to air it out doesn't help. The rooftop bar is boring. The bartenders are polite but thats it. They could do so much more up there. And closing at 10 or 11 pm on the weekends doesn't help. The towels need upgrades as do the pillows. We stayed here on the recommendation of a friend who lives in the area. While its location is ideal, next time I'd rather walk an extra block or 2 than stay here. That being said I really hope the hotel gets the upgrades it needs to restore what was once probably the best place in town. And they aren't cheap. Next time I will get an airbnb at a fraction of the price.

A bit worn out. Good location though

The view from the rooftop was lovely, but we could not stay as we had our minor daughter with us. The hotel is well situated to dining, shopping and the beach. We loved that it was a very walkable neighbourhood. Our reservation was lost at check in, which was a little annoying as we had been driving all day and were a little exhausted, but it finally got straightened out. Also, most of the ice machines were broken, so it was quite the hunt to find the only working one by trial and error, since the information we were given from the front desk was not correct.

Front desk staff were great, location of the hotel cannot be beat for downtown activity. Our room was in the "old wing" and it showed its age. That said we had an upper floor, corner room with beautiful bay views..so it was worth it.

Always a great place stay!
