Our family recently stayed for three nights at the Park Place hotel and were very pleased with this property. As other reviews have noted, they are in the process of updating the property - the exterior and common areas have been/are being completed and look fabulous. The rooms themselves have somewhat dated trim and furnishings, but everything was clean and in good operating condition. We booked a king suite (just missed the great deal on the two queen suite), but had ample room for a double-size inflatable mattress next to the king bed. Other highlights of this property are:
- free wireless internet (nice, strong, reliable signal)
- HEATED pool and jacuzzi
- HOT and FREE breakfast buffet each morning (e.g., biscuits/gravy, sausage, scrambled eggs, waffles, muffins, bagels, cereal, etc.) - you'd spend $20/day+ to get the same thing at a restaurant for a family of 4!
- Friendly staff
- Central location (we found that being closer to lots of things was better than being ON the beach - especially for the price).
We had heard that a model of the soon-to-be-renovated rooms was completed and the staff were happy to accomodate our request to see it. I HIGHLY recommend other visitors do the same - they look GORGEOUS! We can't wait to come back when they're all done.

Dear Dr. Wright,
I want to say thank you very much for taking the time to let us and our viewers learn about your stay at the Park Lane Hotel. It put a smile on my face to read your comments and to know that your family had such a wonderful time at our hotel and on Hilton Head! We are so proud of our hotel and of our staff. We are all looking forward to having the rooms remodeled very soon. As you stated, the rooms will be absolutely gorgeous! We plan to start the rooms in September, just after Labor Day. I look forward to your return.
Thank you for staying with us. Enjoy your summer!
Sincerely,
Sheila Baxley
