Situated directly on the famous Boardwalk of Atlantic City, the Tropicana is one of the city’s largest casino resorts, and is the second-largest hotel in the state. The Tropicana is within walking distance to 10 other Boardwalk casinos and offers easy access to the marina district casinos – Harrah’s, The Borgata and Trump Marina – as well as a variety of other non-casino attractions, restaurants and more.
The Tropicana has more than 1,600 guestrooms and suites, all of which feature 24-hour room service and all the modern amenities you’d expect from a first-class resort. Guestrooms are comfortably designed in soft pastel colors, with contemporary furnishings and décor. Many of the rooms feature beachfront vistas. In fact, the hotel has the unique distinction of offering Atlantic City's "Best View From a Room."
The Tropicana is recognized as one of the better Atlantic City casinos for mid-level gaming. Though “high rollers” might find the table-game betting limits too low, the average player may find it a relief. Gaming takes place in an attractive 124,000-square-foot gaming hall, divided into smaller sub-gaming areas. Table games include Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, Mini-Baccarat, Craps, Pai Gow, Sic Bo, Poker, Keno, and Simulcast. Smoke-free tables are also available. The casino’s Poker Room is notable, with a specially designed photo identification system that ensures players receive the “comps” due them.
The Tropicana boasts a huge assortment of slots, one reason why the casino is the first and only casino to be voted #1 in slots three years in a row. Play the Worlds of Cash progressive slots and get sent into orbit. Go Piggy Bankin' and build cash in the bank. Win jackpots and strike it rich when Black Gold's wild symbol delivers a gusher of winners. This place even has slot machines with chairs that double as exercise bikes! That’s right, get your workout in while you gamble!
The Trop is home to the luxurious Crystal Room, designed with crystal chandeliers, vaulted ceilings and vibrating high-back slot chairs. The Crystal Room has more than 80 slot machines in denominations ranging from $2 - $100. Slot denominations altogether range from 5 cents to $100.
The Tropicana offers a number of things to see and do without ever leaving the premises. Guests can get a full workout in at the resorts fully equipped health club, which also includes a Jacuzzi and a mentholated steam bath.
