I've been to Tropicana Casino & Hotel in New Jersey probably since it opened when it first was called TropWorld. On this last occasion I went with my daughter and her family because she received an offer from Tropicana for a special room rate of $169 ...

Pros: New, updated, BIG, excellent restaurants.
Cons: Expensive shops, crowded stores, impossible to eat dinner without reservations.

Atlantic City will never be Vegas but it sure is giving it the old college try! In this attempt to update its image and compete with the west coast casino extravaganzas, the Tropicana Hotel & Casino has added a new addition to its former self... ...

Pros: All under one room: hotel, casino, shopping, shows, restaurants, right on boardwalk.
Cons: Hotel service below-average, I did not feel anyone cared about us.

To celebrate our 17th anniversary, my wife and I decided to take the drive to Atlantic City, which is about an hour and a half from our home in Staten Island, New York, for a special night at the Tropicana. We stayed at their new “Havana” Tower. We ...

Pros: The casino area is nice enough...
Cons: but the rooms themselves are disgraceful in the extreme.

You are, of course, an experienced and sophisticated traveler, and you know - indeed you do - that your average casino sees you as a walking dollar sign.  That's it.  They don't see you as a guest, or a customer, or even as somebody that they ...

Pros: Diamond Club Rewards, Low minimum bid table games, Elegant decor, Gorgeous rooms
Cons: You will lose everything :(

As I stepped out of the door of my room in the Ascot Motel, in Atlantic City, NJ. I gazed upon the huge construction site in front of the Tropicana Hotel Resort & Casino. By 2004, the Tropicana Resort will not only be a place to gamble and vacation, but...

Pros: Acceptable quality, a slew of slots if that's your thing.
Cons: Odd, sprawling layout. It's in Atlantic City.

Last weekend, I reported for duty to the Tropicana in Atlantic City. It's not something I would just do - I don't much care for A.C. - but it was my brother in law's bachelor party, and attendance was required.

The first thing I noticed about...

Pros: Doesn't feel like your average casino, feels like a "vacation."
Cons: Have to walk to the midtown shops. Questionable surrounding area. Hard to get comps.

Historically if you ask an average tourist what hotels come to mind when thinking of Atlantic City (AC), and you'll likely hear Caesars, Bally's, Taj Mahal, Harrahs, and in the past Sands. Nowadays with the new Renaissance of Atlantic City, you'll more ...

Pros: Great indoor getaway- plenty to do for a long, laid back weekend. Some great restaurants.
Cons: You could easily go broke in the resort alone; Their Carmine's is awful.

We stayed at The Tropicana for three nights last week, a Thursday night through Sunday morning (March 2006) for one of my husband's continuing education symposiums. Before we left, I read these reviews, and did not know what to expect. I'm too frugal ...

Pros: Rooms, The Quarter
Cons: Can be expensive

The Tropicana Resort and Casino has been around for a while, but in fall of 2004 they opened "The Quarter", a new Havana-themed section that is beautiful. I stayed in the Havana tower (the new part) in February of 2005. LOCATION Directly on ...

Pros: Price, the New Quarter, Large Casino
Cons: Long Walk from Casino to Hotel Areas

This was the 3rd time I've stayed at the Trop in 2yrs so I guess I must Like the place! LOCATION Directly on the Boardwalk approx. 6 blocks or so South of the Main Group of Casinos at the "Center" of the Boardwalk but only 4 blocks North of the ...

Pros: Very clean hotel and casino, courteous employees, great comp program
Cons: During certain times it can be extremely busy and a little pricey.

This is my first review so hopefully I will be as thorough as possible.

My first contact with the Tropicana was on their website at www.tropicana.net. I was looking for cheap rooms and ended up calling their reservation center to book. I was...

Pros: Convenient for people on the East Coast, The Boardwalk
Cons: Variety, Atmosphere

The Tropicana Casino and Resort is located in Atlantic City and it
is a pretty good place to stay for one or two nights for anybody looking for a gambling expedition. It is a nice spacious hotel and casino. The service within the casino is...

Pros: Lots to do and see. Great restaurants! On the Boardwalk.
Cons: VERY expensive. Confusing layout. Rude Staff.

I just returned from my 3rd stay at the Tropicana Hotel. There is so much to do and see here. It is like being on a cruise ship or staying in a mall that is open late. The hotel staff here is not friendly at all. They will look at you with a blank stare ...

Pros: GREAT FOOD - BARS - ENTERTAINMENT - ATMOSPHERE
Cons: AVOID THE HAVANA TOWER ROOMS! NO OR FEW $5 $10 TABLES. PROPERTY OVERALL IS CONVOLUTED

Feb 17 2005 Hello, I book a standard room king non-smoking room at the "Trop" for my partner and I as a late Valentines getaway! We've stayed there many times before and always stayed in either the old North or South towers of the property and always ...
