Check in was slow and done by someone who didn't seem to care. Room wasn't vacuumed and a pile of garbage just outside the door, tub didn't drain properly. The service and servers at Minerva's were excellent however

Trouble checking in. They were waiting for the confirmation.
Manager was very helpful
4.1
I enjoyed the hotel's rich history, its proximity to the downtown area, the helpful staff, and the immaculate room. Additionally, the rooftop bar was a highlight, and the ample free parking was a great convenience.
4.1
Room outdated. No staff in rooftop bar. Front desk check in employee was rude.
4.1
This was simply the most expensive night I have ever spent at a hotel where the bed was so uninviting i did not want to sleep in it. Linens gray, rough and unclean feeling. Some towels had something yellow and crusted on them. The sink area was at knee level (this was not an ADA room). The elevator was very dirty. Very disappointed to have finally stayed a night at what should be a Traverse City historical landmark. Unacceptable for the all in price of +$400.
4.1
Would recommend this hotel for location and convenience when wanting to explore the downtown areas. It was walking distance to everywhere we wanted to go which was great, however we were not impressed with the cleanliness. We asked for our room to be cleaned twice at the front desk and once to the staff in the hallway cleaning other rooms, but it never happened. Disappointed with the service, but overall, everything was fine.

This was a profoundly disappointing stay. Park Place USED TO BE the premier hotel in TC. It has it slid straight to substandard in seemingly no time - yet they command top prices - not from me again. We should have known as we drove up to dead or overgrown, unkempt landscaping - weeds and untrimmed plantings - it looks abandoned. The evening staff was unwelcoming and largely disinterested in our presence; cleaning staff listening to personal music on cell phone - clashing with the music coming from the restaurant. I know help is hard to come by but is that REALLY tolerated? in ANY hotel? The lobby of the hotel is worn and tired, woodwork scuffed and beaten up - just everything tired and in need of replacement. The elevator looked worse than most service elevators I have been in. Hallway carpet coming up with squares overlapping - a trip hazard they will probably soon be paying for. The room was fine but no great shakes. Obvious scab-on electrical updates are substandard. The bathroom was not very clean. The bed was comfortable, though. The restaurant was the shining exception - very pleasant staff and the food was fine and not ridiculously priced - but not enough to move the needle on this experience. Overrated and overpriced for an unmaintained and undermanaged hole. So sad.

Good but old
4.1
Property needs some room renovations older and a little musty. Rather than that it’s fine and suitable for staying downtown TC as you don’t want to drive in the area this time of year.
4.1
Expensive stay without the amenities. This hotel used to be the Ritz of Northern Michigan but not anymore. One, small working elevator usually occupied by hotel staff. Had to pass on 2 to 3 elevators each ride. Desk staff totally disinterested and rude. Had to ask for a shower curtain and towels. Room was hot and humid. The stay was a real stinker. The one bright spot was breakfast. Food was good and the ladies running breakfast were funny and friendly.
4.1
Great location. Room had crumbs in the closet when we arrived. Never came to clean during our stay. Shower knob did not turn off easily. Kept dripping.
4.1
Check-In was great, the gentleman was very kind, but this property needs major help. The staff is great, the actual property is terribel. The restaurant, the rooms, cleanliness, there is clearly something going here with management. This hotel is not what it once was. So very sad as we were married here. And want to love this place!!
4.1
Not worth the money. Showing it’s age and lack of care which is even worse.
4.1
Price for room. Was an older hotel. Highly priced tor atmosphere . Did not know dog friendly. Dog next door barked work me up
4.1
Excellent location and great property. Quick check in and nice amenities. The top floor bar has stunning water views. The pool and hot tub area looked newer and was expansive in size. The fitness center had well-working cardio machines and free weights, was clean with windows. The gift shop was unexpectedly different with antiques and other collectibles that were well-priced. We would stay here again. Very dog friendly too!
4.1
The place is a scam. We paid almost 500 dollars a night, thinking that it’d be a decent place. The online pictures are severely photoshopped. The carpet looks like it hasn’t been cleaned for 20 years. Our room stinked so bad that everytime we enter, we had to open the window and turn on the AC to air for 10min, before it was bearable. You would think for a hotel of almost 500 dollars a night they would give you decent towels. No…. The towels were so thin and over-used that you can almost see through them. In all fairness, they have a decent swimming pool and the hotel is very walkable to all the stuff in the city, but other than that, all other aspects of the hotel were severely subpar. Terrible experience.
4.1
We loved the location and the view from our room. Location was amazing, right within minutes of everything. Safe parking was a plus as well. Will definitely stay here again.
4.1
No fresh towels or changed room
Had to ask at 10 pm

This hotel is a bit dated but charming. The room was very spacious and had everything you needed. The staff were very helpful and provided great recommendations. The best part of this property is the location. It located near downtown walkable to many shops and restaurants.
4.1
Get some new carpeting....
4.1
Good spot in close proximity to shopping and the beach. Restaurant was good, but options somewhat limited. I've stayed here before, would stay here again.
4.1
Hotel was nice, but there was an up charge for everything, you even have to pay for the coffee in the lobby. My tv remote didn’t work. The front desk said they would send someone no one ever showed up.
4.1
Nice view

Older property, convenient to downtown Traverse, needs some updating. Has business center & gym.
4.1
Aesthetically beautiful hotel in a quaint Michigan town, this is an iconic building with a lot of charm and amazing architecture inside and out. But there are three major issues with this place. First, the employees are not trained very well. The fellow at the front desk when we arrived was not charming or helpful in the least. Instead, he was dismissive and condescending. When we approached him about a problem with our bedding, he did not call housekeeping to have the sheets changed after we requested it. Simple act. Unresolved for the guest. Hire people who represent your brand better, please. We also had a room with a clogged sink that would not drain that, when I approached the same gentleman with the issue, as I was checking out, he never apologized. Now, there was a very kind and charming man at the desk later in the evening who was very helpful. But this other employee--who I dealt with originally--definitely needs more training in hotel management and customer service.
While I find this hotel very handsome, the place could use an updating. The aforementioned sink was tiny. The rooms were on the small side. The grounds themselves (especially at the rear entrance) were embarrassing--overgrown with weeds, etc. Also, the in-house restaurant was less than impressive. For such a beautiful building, in a great location, you'd think the holding company would want this place to be extra special. Considering the nightly rate, my expectation was not met.

NICE

I liked the location, the pool and the hot tub.
However our room was in pretty bad shape with wallpaper peeling off all of the walls, badly stained carpet and a plugged bathroom sink.
4.1
Park Place Hotel is a beautiful hotel and is within walking distance to a lot of good restaurants and entertainment. The only thing that I wish was that they spent as much time and money on updating the rooms as they have the lobby.
4.1
Good downtown hotel with downtown accessibility

Dated

Room was not clean. Stains on comforter, dirty sheets, dirty bathroom. Shower did not get hot. AC vent was condensating and dripping on the floor all night. Staff was very friendly, hotel is in a great location and parking was great.
4.1
Excellent location right in the downtown area, just a few short blocks from the waterfront. It was nice to be able to easily stop by the room for dropping off and picking up things during the day. The bed was very comfortable. My only negative would be that the towels never dried completely. They were still damp even a day after showering. The lobby had an old-timey elegance. The parking lot had many shady spots available. All in all, a great hotel to stay in right in downtown Traverse City.

If Jesus had traveled to Traverse City this hotel would have been there waiting for him it’s that old!!!
Smallest hotel rooms I’ve ever seen in America
4.1
The room was dirty. The windows were almost impossible to see through. Had a view of lake couldn’t see it from dust and dirt and spider webs. Walls had stains. Pillows had stains. Bathroom had mold, dirt, stains, hair from previous visitors. Towels are so old they are not white anymore. It’s a motel with hotel prices.
4.1
Sheets had stains on them’. Too
Smelled! Not worth the price at all! Completely disgusted by shower.
4.1
We were not able to check in at 4 like guaranteed per our reservation. Didn’t get in the room until 5 pm and missed our dinner reservation. Other than that the stay was good. Room could have been cleaned better but for the little amount of time we were there it was ok. Perfect location.
4.1
Beautiful hotel right in the heart of everything! It is an older building with small imperfections. But the staff were incredibly kind & helpful. Our room was lovely and comfortable. And we walked to 99% of the activities we had planned for our vacation. They even gave us a last minute early check in. Our family will definitely be returning here.
4.1
Great service. Parking was easy. Room was clean. Slept soundly.

Great stay!

We chose this hotel to be in the heart of downtown Traverse City. Great location but the hotel is old, my blanket had a blood stain, and AC wasn’t cold enough. The restaurant downstairs also opened late for breakfast.
