Our stay at this hotel was quite the experience. The convenient location made it easy to explore Traverse City, but the cleanliness and condition of the room left a lot to be desired. While some aspects were nice, like the well-kept pool area, the dining options were disappointing, and we felt that the price we paid didn't match what we received.

The Park Place hotel is situated in a central location of Traverse City, making it easy to walk to various attractions and restaurants. While my room was clean and the check-in process was efficient, the overall experience was marred by some dated infrastructure and less-than-ideal customer service. The dining options were not tried during my stay, and although I found the room acceptable, there were certain inconveniences that may make me consider other options for future visits.

I had a mixed experience at the Park Place Hotel. The service was truly exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to help my family during a tough time. The location is perfect for exploring downtown Traverse City, but I found the rooms to be needing some updates, and the overall value for the price seemed a bit lacking. It’s a lovely hotel with some great features, but you could get more for your money elsewhere.
