Park Place Hotel Antique Mall's owner Barbara Olmstead has always been interested in antiques. Her grandmother used to take her antiquing when she was just a girl. Her husband's family has always owned and enjoyed antiques as well. So when the two of them started to go to auctions together, their home inventory grew. Opening a store just became the natural progression of their mutual passion.
Olmstead says that Marion is a great destination town for a day trip. It has seven antique stores and many specialty shops. Park Place Hotel Antique Mall is home to about 30 dealers. Park Place Hotel Antique Mall has every kind of antique one could be looking for as well as vintage clothing. Park Place Hotel Antique Mall does appraisals for a fee and will consign furniture.
