Adorable drip coffee maker in the hotel room
Rivka P.

Arrived on a casino plane from FLL. Hotel room is average but has a bathtub. Beds were very old. But you're here to gamble, right? Tropicana has the only Live Poker Room on the strip. Also offers roulette, blackjack, pai-gow, baccarat, and basic table card games. $15 or $25 Craps. The slot machines were the usual suspects, except for Double Joker Poker. I doubled my money on Craps but lost it all on slots. Icy cold slot machines. There are also 15 restaurants all inside this one casino and they offer a pub crawl to get your passport stamped! Fun. The shopping mall is kid-friendly with arcades and candy stores; but also diverse. I immediately bought a new purse. You can exit the Tropicana directly onto the ocean beach or ride a trolley to the Boardwalk. The locals were so friendly to tell me about fireworks over the ocean and where the best bars are. I would have missed it all because the Tropicana has no Concierge! Tropicana is definitely a nice place to stay.

We love Tropicana it's a great place for adults and kids . The room was beautiful as well as the view . They offer tons of restaurants there as well as activities for the kids . It's beach front so you can enjoy the beach, the casino was great as well.

It's a serviceable hotel that's def staring to show its age. We booked a Classic Room in the North Tower over Labor Day weekend (room 841). We were expecting a no frills budget room, but even with that, there were a few basics that were missed. For starters, the door was sticky, the room had a musk of cigarette smoke even though it was non smoking. There was just a single chair in the room as well. It was clean though, so I guess that's something. I know they have recently renovated the Solana Tower as well. Also of note, this end of the boardwalk is MUCH more run down and empty than the North end, so bear that in mind when booking.

This review is solely from my perspective of the businesses and casinos. I have not stayed overnight here unfortunately due to the high number of people that were here during the weekend I arrived. This is one of those casinos in AC that brings the energy. All casinos are the same here but Tropicana for some reason seems to bring in a fun crowd, people with less disputes and better energy overall. This weekend I lost money but I had so much fun that I didn't think too much about the loss. Tropicana has great food, a great view of the beach, perfectly centered on the boardwalk. Even if you're not gambling this is the perfect place to be entertained with your family or on a solo trip. I recommend looking around the entire place because I've been here many times but this time around was my first time really exploring. I enjoyed their Hagen daz, they have a cool sandwich shop around there too and lastly we went to a comedy show in the building. The comedy show was $50 and it was 1/10 but it was so bad that it became a staple memory for us so we are still thankful that we sat through those "jokes". It was still laughable which is the point. 10/10 casino experience. Highly recommend the Tropicana if you're in the area.

We decided to book an overnight stay for dinner (PF Chang's) and a show (The Hook). We stayed in the Solana tower, our rooms looked newly renovated. I had a beautiful view and all new furniture. The room was comfortable, although I wanted it a little cooler but it would not budge. We went to the in-house club, I wasn't a fan, too many teenagers and the DJ was not great. The staff were great and the amenities, stores, restaurants and bars made it a nice getaway. Also, we were right on the boardwalk and were able to walk right over to the beach.

I will say that I love that Tropicana has everything inside it's a casino, hotel, has restaurants, clubs, arcade, imax theatre etc.... We stayed in the new tower the Solana Tower & I loved it. It was very clean. HOWEVER, #1 they have no one that can help we had mad luggage (totally our fault) we know for next time we have to consolidate. That's not a hotel you can be have mad luggage with. The concierge was useless we wanted to take the luggage cart they said no a concierge has to do it. NO concierge in sight. We had to lug it ourselves. We had to walk thru the casino thru the quarter to get to our elevators. #2 ALL pools were closed #3 ALL POOLS WERE CLOSED #4 Leaving was worse than coming elevators were closed were walking around lookin dumb trying to find how to leave again and AGAIN NO ONE TO BE FOUND TO HELP & REMEMBER we had all them bags. Ughhh!!!! Il

Lobby

Great location in center of Atlantic City. They have valet and self-parking. We did valet. I do not recommend. When we picked up our car is was close to an hour. Absolutely insane. This entire complex is a maze. We were trying to find a restaurant and had to ask 3 different people. Ended up having to go to one elevator to get to the 5th floor of another tower then to another elevator in a completely different tower to go down to that lobby and then through several hallways. You will get lost. Check in gets 10 stars! Super convenient and quick. You aren't waiting. Service was great. We were put in the Salona Tower. There's 2 elevators. That's it. Waited in line for 20 minutes just to get on the elevator to go up to our room. Seems like there's a bank of 4 but only 2 are working. This was super inconvenient. Room itself was good. Spacious and all the things you need. Seems as if it has been updated. There's a huge bathroom with a tub, one sink and toilet. The bed was comfy and a king. There's a TV, chair, and small table. I think there was a fridge but not sure as we didn't use. There was an ironing board as well. Safe too. Overall good accommodations. Nothing fancy. Just what you need.

Early morning check out... no lines

Spent three nights. My friend got comped. Used her points for the resorts fees and taxes. Do free. Had a great time with friends. Hotel is ok. Rooms were clean. Didn't use any special services. All's good. Completely satisfied with facilities

The reviews for the Tropicana are certainly a mixed can of worms. Our experience for our 2 night stay was positive. We had rooms in the South tower on the 20th floor. Due to a reservation mix-up we had different rooms for both nights. We got lucky, because both the rooms we were given were huge and had ocean and bay views. We were at a conference with other friends and everyone else's rooms were half the size of ours. The Tropicana is vast and a city unto itself. There are several towers (South, North, Havana, and Chelsea). The Chelsea appears to be the older side of the building and a maze to get to. My recommendation is if you can get a room in the South Tower on an upper level, you shouldn't be disappointed. There are many restaurants, eateries, and bars all within the Tropicana. We actually had all our meals right on the property. There was plenty of entertainment from live bands to dueling pianos. All within the walls of the Tropicana.

Tropicana Atlantic City is very lively. The "quarter" area is full of restaurants. There is something for everyone to have a great time. There is an IMAX theater, escape room, arcade, salon, many restaurants , and bars. The rooms in the north tower seem older but was comfortable.

Chose this place to stay for two nights to celebrate my Auntie's 90th birthday. Online booking was easy. Even when I cancelled and rebooted at a cheaper rate. Check in was easy breezy. We arrived early and was willing to pay the early check in fee but, it was waived when I let them know it was my Aunts actual 90th birthday on the day we arrived. We stayed on the Havana side on the 52nd floor. When we entered our room was clean. The bed was not most comfortable but, because we were only staying two nights it wasn't so bad. Its a little difficult to reach front desk if you need anything it was a wait. From our room you could see the sand and water. Downfall was i think the power cut off in the middle of the night because our room was muggy and stuffy when we woke up and the items that we left in the fridge were warm. Other than that the stay was not bad. The hotel had so much in it. For our short stay it was impossible to see and enjoy it all. You really didn't have to leave the hotel at all. This is not the place if you wanna be near the outlet but, it was fine for me.

Garbage we tried to keep neatly stored

We came a few days before the official Labor Day weekend. We booked the Solana Tower because it was the newly renovated tower. There's nothing special about the room. Only there's no carpet. We were supposed to have partial ocean view. Look at the photos. Can you find the ocean? Also it was 2 people but only 1 chair. To keep it simple this place is the Carnival Cruise of the Broad walk. One day I walked into my room in the afternoon to get something and it smelled like weed - of course it's coming from another room. The weekend it got packed with families, couples, and people that came to gamble. My friend stayed at the Havana tower and her room was MUCH NICER!!! With an actual view! Also don't expect to have your room cleaned, fresh towels, more hand soap, extra toilet paper, etc. we were there 5 days and 4 nights and NO ONE CAME. No one ever comes. You have to run the housekeeper down. When I ran up to her, her face already looked annoyed. All we wanted were clean towels. Customer service is nonexistent. We kept all our garbage in separate bags. Thankfully we are neat. I will say everything we ate was great! We will go back to AC but stay at Hard Rock or Oceans.

View from 19th floor

Cleanliness of bathroom and having hot water for the shower. Disgusting hair covered soap left in shower. Made me throw a hand towel down on shower floor to take my ice cold shower! NO Hot Water!!!! Happy I brought my own HABA products wasn't touching those filthy dispensers. Call on telephone to complain and get the IVY program telling you how to Check out! Elevator was so slow to 19th floor of Chelsea Tower that there was a long line going down the hall and around the corner on the 5 th floor transfer area. Being handicapped it was quite a hike for me on top of that they charge you a fee for a closer room are you kidding me. Weed being smoked in every area of hotel. The shape of the bathroom made me question the cleanliness of everything. Thick dust accumulated behind hanging mirror. For what they charge it should be cleaner and should be renovated it is old! I wouldn't stay here again!

See all

Parking. If I do self parking, does this come with in and out privileges with that same all day rate?

Does Tropicana have complimentary breakfast? Where can you park for free?

Unfortunately no. You pay for everything

WE are coming down in September and staying at Havana tower for 3 nights. I hear conflicting answers about the parking. We are not high rollers. Once we park, our car will stay for the 3 days. How much is parking?

Prices ; Mon-Thu - All day · $10.00 self-park ; Fri-Sun - All day self-park · $20.00 ; Valet - Mon-Thu - All day · $25.00 ; Valet - Sun - All day · $35.00. I'm not sure aht they call it but we were there Monday thru Thursday and used the valet.… 

Do you need ID to enter casino, restaurants?

Only as the previous answer stats . I always notice servers asking for ID if u ordering alcohol with ur meal

What's the cost of valet parking?

25 dollars

Are late check outs accommodated?

You can pay extra for late check out unless you have status

Which tower is the best to stay in?

So I've only stayed in the west tower and the Chelsea. The west tower is the party zone. It smells like weed and gets rowdy. You must have your room key to get to the elevators as security is there waiting. The Chelsea is next door but sometimes you… 

Do I need to stay at the resort in order to visit the restaurants and night clubs?

I've stayed at Marriott properties for approximately 12 years and have accumulated 800+ nights with Marriott, so I have a pretty good understanding of the standards I expect from the brand. Unfortunately, my recent stay at the Borgata was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I've had. We checked in Saturday. That evening, we went to put food in our refrigerator and discovered food belonging to a previous guest still inside the fridge. Gross, but I initially brushed it off as an isolated housekeeping oversight. The next morning, things got significantly worse. The TV in our room wasn't working, and when my friend went to take a shower, she discovered a significant amount of someone else's hair sitting in the shower drain. There was also no soap in the bathroom hand-soap dispenser, so we had to call to have that addressed. At that point, we went to the front desk and spoke with Connor, a manager. We explained everything, and he was apologetic and told us he would put a $100 food & beverage credit on our room and send housekeeping up to properly clean the room. We appreciated the response and went back upstairs. Except housekeeping never came. After waiting, I called the concierge to check on the request, only to be told that there was no housekeeping request in the system. The concierge then put one in and I asked how long it would take because we needed to get ready for dinner. I was actually told that I could take a tissue and remove the hair from the shower drain myself. I'm sorry, but absolutely not. I paid to stay in a hotel room. I should not be cleaning another guest's hair out of the shower drain myself. Eventually, housekeeping did come. However, after the housekeeper left, the hair was STILL in the shower drain. I literally had to follow the housekeeper into the hallway and point out that the hair had not been removed. This is not about expecting perfection. Hotels make mistakes. It is about basic cleanliness and the fact that we repeatedly gave the property opportunities to fix the problem, and somehow the most obvious issue was still not addressed. Then, to make matters worse, I received our folio after checking out and discovered that the $100 food & beverage credit Connor specifically promised us was never applied. So now I'm left wondering what, exactly, was being done to resolve the situation. I have stayed at an enormous number of Marriott properties over the years and have never experienced this combination of poor housekeeping, lack of communication, and failure to follow through on a commitment made by management. Food left in the refrigerator. Hair from a previous guest in the shower drain. Missing soap. Broken TV. Housekeeping request not entered. Being told to clean the hair myself. Hair still left in the drain after housekeeping. And finally, the promised $100 credit not applied. That is an extraordinary number of basic failures for one stay. The Borgata is a major property, and as a Marriott-affiliated hotel, I expected significantly better.

There are 85 rooms and suites within Caesars Atlantic City on the Centurion Tower's top three floors. This is the Nobu Hotel. I am not a huge fan of AC so take that into account, meaning four stars here might be the best of the best. The check in process is amazing. With only 85 rooms there is no such thing as a long line--well, at least when I was there. The weird part, however, is the Centurion Tower is quite a walk from that check-in desk. Floor access is controlled by your keys, which is actually a welcome feature here. The rooms themselves are comfortable, have great views, and while staying there I found nothing to complain about. Overall, for AC this was a great experience.

The manger apologized told me the best she could do was give me a $75 food and drink voucher just charge it to the room. So I went to Starbucks my wife ordered a tall refresher for $10 that's all we used We went to check out the next day and STARBUCKS had charged $32 to the room instead of $10. It was a HORRIBLE experience staying there.

Rooms are clean and modern. I loved the gorgeous marble bathroom, and the bed was super plush and comfortable. The resort has plenty to do on the property. There are tons of seated and fast-casual restaurants and bars. We had drinks at Villian & Saint, dinner at Amada and brunch at Harper's. All were great. Loved the ocean views at Amada. The Eclipse indoor / outdoor pool was really nice. I was here on an unseasonably warm day, and it's nice that they keep this pool open. It seems like most other resorts close their outdoor pool. Even if it's chilly out you could always hang in the hot tub! The views overlooking the ocean are 10/10. If you don't want to hang by the pool there are plenty of other nice outdoor spaces that face the water. I loved hanging out on the rocking chair and could've posted up there for hours. Staff was friendly and let us check in early. Parking was a reasonable $15. This is a splurge - we stayed at the Tropicana the next night and it was a compltely different experience.

I live in Las Vegas and come from a hospitality background, so I'll admit I probably notice hotel details more than the average traveler. That said, I also know every city has its own personality, and Atlantic City is definitely not Vegas nor should it be. I arrived around 8 PM after flying into Philadelphia and making the drive over, so between the long travel day and the time difference, I was exhausted. Check-in was easy, and I was given a room on the 35th floor with an absolutely beautiful view of the ocean, boardwalk, and city. The room was very clean, well maintained, and the bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable. I ordered room service that first night, which was super convenient because the TV has the room service menu and other hotel information right there. I placed my order, jumped in the shower, got dressed, and by the time I was finished the doorbell was ringing. Perfect timing! The food was delicious, and the portions were definitely large enough to share. The next morning I went to the gym, and I have to give Ocean major credit here, the gym is AMAZING. It was also surprisingly busy early in the morning. My only suggestion would be opening it earlier than 6 AM. I'm a 4 or 5 AM gym person when I'm traveling so I can work out, get ready, and still have plenty of time before the workday starts. Having Starbucks inside the property is another big plus, and being able to use the Starbucks app to pay made it even better. I also had brunch at Harper's. The food was good and, once again, the portions were huge. Later I walked the boardwalk, rode the Ferris wheel, and really enjoyed getting to experience Atlantic City for the first time. For dinner, I ate at LaScala's Fire. Our waiter was great and provided excellent service. The food itself was a little under-seasoned for my taste, so I had to doctor it up a bit, but service-wise I had no complaints. One thing I really liked from a security standpoint is that you have to scan your room key before entering the hotel elevator area. The property itself is HUGE. I honestly don't think I explored even half of it during my stay. Since I visited during the off season, it was a little quieter, but I can imagine this place is a completely different animal during peak season. Overall, I had a very good stay. The views were stunning, my room was clean and comfortable, the food portions were generous, the gym was fantastic, and I slept great both nights. If I had one area of feedback, it would be that some of the employee interactions felt a little less warm or personable than what I'm used to. But coming from Las Vegas hospitality, I also recognize that Vegas has its own very particular style of service. Atlantic City has more of that East Coast, straight to the point personality, you know exactly where you stand! I noticed Ocean has some pretty rough reviews, but that really wasn't my experience. I think sometimes people walk into a casino resort expecting every single detail, comp, or interaction to go exactly the way they envisioned. I went in ready to experience a new city for what it was, and I genuinely enjoyed my stay. I would absolutely stay at Ocean again on another Atlantic City trip.

The room was bright enough to make me feel hopeful again. The furniture looked new, the bedding cleaner than the soul of a saint. You could almost smell the paint still trying to dry. The bathroom was beautiful. There was a shower stall with a fake marble bench. I sat on it and felt like an emperor, briefly. Then I noticed a little mold blooming around the shower head. A small rebellion. There were stains on the wall too, ghostly handprints of humidity. That's how things go in Atlantic City, shiny today, peeling tomorrow. My view was of the old Trump Plaza, or what's left of it. A carcass. Concrete ribs showing. It stared at me every morning like an old man who still thinks he's handsome. Not much Caesars can do about that. But it reminded me, again and again, that this city is more memory than place now. The casino felt haunted, though not by spirits, but by the absence of them. Slot machines blinked for no one. A few people were sleeping in their chairs, which seemed fair enough. The table games were quiet as a church on Tuesday. I used to work security at the Trump Marina, grave shift, back when things were merely dying instead of dead. I recognized the silence. It hums in your bones. Most of the restaurants were closed. Tazza Cafe was holding down the fort, serving decent coffee and sandwiches in a space that felt like the corner of an airport food court that had gone to community college. Gordon Ramsay's Pub & Grill was running too. They served over-priced shepherd's pie and image, but little more. Nobu opened on Thursday, like a movie star showing up to an empty theater. Parking was an adventure through the absurd. You go through the Temple Garage, cross Arkansas Street like a pilgrim, then slip into the Colosseum Garage to park. It felt like a test to see who really wanted to be there. Most employees seemed to have mastered the art of avoidance, the kind of indifference that comes from too many shore town winters. The exception was the front desk team, who were unfailingly kind, efficient, and seemed genuinely happy to see another breathing soul. So here's the moral. The rooms in the Centurion Tower are beautiful, even luxurious. If you can snag a midweek off-season rate, it's worth it for the comfort of the bed and the quiet view of decay. But the magic is gone from Caesars Atlantic City. What remains is a gleaming room in a tired city, a testament to how we keep trying to polish what is already sinking.

Bally's Atlantic City -- Good Blackjack, Bad Parking, Elevator Tried to Kill Me…read moreVisited: Friday, July 31, 2026 -- roughly 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. 3/5 Bally's Atlantic City still feels like a classic gambler's casino, and I mean that as a compliment. Not a nightclub disguised as a casino. Not a luxury lifestyle palace where blackjack has been reduced to four tables next to an aromatherapy lounge. Bally's feels like a place built for people who actually came to gamble, drink and periodically question their financial judgment. The blackjack was the highlight. I found $15 tables with standard 3:2 blackjack payouts, which instantly earned my respect. No surrender, but otherwise a perfectly playable game. Better yet, most of the players actually knew what they were doing. No donk-fest. No splitting tens because Grandma appeared in a dream. No hitting a 14 against a dealer 6 because "the vibes said so." The East Coast table energy was excellent--talking, laughing, ball-busting, collective groaning and the occasional spiritual crisis when the dealer somehow manufactures a 21 out of six cards. Two dealers stood out: Russell, originally from D.C., and Stephen, a local New Jersey guy. Both were entertaining, personable and ran a good table. Good pace, good banter, no nonsense. The craps table was also fun, except apparently the dice had joined organized crime. Nobody got much of a deep run going, including yours truly. I controlled the dice twice and produced two legendary performances: Roll. Seven-out. Twice. That is not craps. That is basically a direct deposit into Bally's operating account. Upstairs there's also a cool rotating bar overlooking the casino floor, and I had a very good gin and tonic there while reflecting on my relationship with probability and poor decision-making. Now for the deductions. First: $20 parking. Twenty bucks to park so I can go inside and voluntarily hand you MORE money? That sucks. Second, and much more importantly, the elevator on the way out nearly turned my foot into an orthopedic case study. I was wearing flip-flops and stepping into the elevator behind a family that had just arrived. My right foot moved forward and, at literally the last second, the elevator suddenly jerked upward what felt like about six inches. My toe slammed into the raised edge, I tripped, and momentum plus gravity sent me forward in a full-body swan dive directly onto the poor woman standing in front of me. There was no dignity left. None. One second I'm leaving Bally's. The next I'm basically performing an involuntary Olympic diving routine into an unsuspecting tourist. Thankfully it ended up being more comical than catastrophic, and nobody appeared seriously hurt. But that elevator movement was absolutely concerning. If a lift can shift noticeably while people are boarding, that is something management needs to inspect immediately. Because today it's my toe and an embarrassing midair embrace with a stranger. Tomorrow, if something mechanical goes seriously wrong, it could be a legitimate safety and liability issue. So Bally's gets 3 stars. The gambling itself? I liked it. Good blackjack rules, competent players, fun dealers, energetic atmosphere, decent craps action and a cool rotating bar. The $20 parking irritated me. The elevator attempting to convert me into human origami cost them another star. Come for the 3:2 blackjack. Stay for the East Coast gambling energy. And apparently watch your damn feet when entering the elevator.

9/13 Bed bugs…read more.. My sister-in-law and I needed to take care of business in Atlantic City and we decided to stay at Bally's. To our surprise the room had bed bugs. The following morning my sister-in-law had an emergency meeting she needed to attend so she left me the responsibility of reporting the incident. Initially, I called the front desk to report the incident, they told me that I needed to file a report. No problem, I go to the front desk upon my departure, I tell the attendant my concern, she reports that SECURITY needs to take my information to start the filing/complaint process. Cool, no problem, strange...but no problem. As I'm waiting for security, a manager, I believe, walks to me and asks can he help me. I explain my concern, he reports that filing an incident report was the correct thing to do. He reported something about reimbursing me but seemingly his concern about the bed bug seemed minimized. At this point, a security person walks over and I explained to her my concern. She takes a picture of my sister-in-law's Bally's card, takes a picture of my license and states that my sister-in-law should file a report as well. I leave the hotel, contact my sister-in-law, tell her what she needed to do and leave the rest to her. The following day she attempts to contact Bally's as a follow up and they tell her, the Bally's rewards member, that there's nothing that she needs to do. So what's the resolution...none to this point. My resolution is that it will be a cold day in hell before I step foot back into their hotel/casino. But if you decide to do so...check the linen before you go to sleep.

Our marina community enjoyed the convenience of this hotel/casino. Pros: * Nice marina views from the Chart House. Solid happy hour. * Vic and Anthony's Steak House is always consistent. Order their burger! * Great people-watching at the outdoor H20 pool (6th floor) * Lillie's is one of the best Asian restaurants around! Open late on the weekends. * Renovations are underway. New carpets in the lobby and updated guest rooms/hallways. Nice! * The Deck Bar (outdoor bar) - the only non-private bar on the water in Atlantic City * Strong wi-fi in guest rooms Cons: * This is the SMOKIEST casino in Atlantic City. Your hair will reek. * In-room dining only available on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. * Aged clientele (lots of seniors). * Barn-style guest room bathroom door that offers zero sound privacy. * The Deck Bar (yes, this is both a pro and con). The bands (and their music) are redundant year after year. You will not get lost in here. The casino floor is relatively small, but that's not necessarily a bad thing! The Golden Nugget will always hold a special place in our boater hearts.
