Stayed two nights mid-week in November at Trump Marina.

This may be the worst choice of the casino hotels in Atlantic City. First, it is at the Marina (no surprise as the name states) which is several miles from the boardwalk. Second, although it is across from AC's best hotel in Borgata, you can't easily walk there based on the road setup. Third, this was the most boring of all the casinos we went to (more on that later).

The Hotel - it is not a bad looking place but does not blow you away. The hallways and common areas are clean. Security was good. Parking was convenient and free with a Trump player's card. Staff was mixed. The check-in people were not the most friendly. Parking booth attendants were courteous and should be at the front desk.

The Restaurants - we did not eat anywhere. First, it looked like most of the nicer restaurants were closed on Wed & Thurs. Second, the buffet did not look great for breakfast nor did the cafe. We ended up driving to Borgata for breakfast which was great - $13.99 for their buffet (only a $1 more than Trump Marina) and you did not feel you were in a cafeteria. The Metropolitan at Borgata was the best choice for breakfast.

The Bars - very disappointing. The only bar I could find that was not in a restaurant was right in the middle of the lobby and very uninviting. Hooters was open but that scene looked dead. The club (Wave) looked like it could be good but not open during the week. No casino entertainment (i.e. a good band). We ended up partying at Borgata (the Gypsy Bar) and had a good time. Tropicana & Caesar's also has a good scene.

The Rooms - they were decent. King bed was comfortable and room was clean. Bathroom was very small. Rooms had a swanky look to them. The best part was the very good rate - $99 per night - which beat the other casino hotels by quite a bit.

Others - did not see the pool, gym or spa.

Overall, although the rooms were decent and the rate very good, there are much better choices. Previously stayed at Borgata, Trump Taj and AC Hilton which were all better choices. But if you are looking for a low rate and don't mind using a car, taxi or jitney, this may be acceptable.

Since it was a mid-week stay, I asked for an upgrade.
We were given a beautiful corner mini-suite, with nice views to the north and east.
The room had two flat screen TVs, a large sitting area, and a raised four-poster bed.
We had fun with a lot of the new slot machines.
The restaurants had good food and portions, decent prices, and service was very impressive.
Everyone from the doorman, registration desk, maids, servers, cocktail waitresses, etc., were just so friendly; nobody had "an attitude".
Would definitely recommend for a short vacation.

The rooms at Trump Marina are pretty good for the price -- well appointed, if a little small (like many other AC casinos). There were minor issues, like a sizable coffee stain on the bathroom vanity, but the view's great. The public areas are dated, though, and the place seemd on the whole a little empty.

We got this hotel for an offer of $75 on Priceline ($94 inc tax). I was a bit nervous after seeing some photos and reviews, but my room seemed much nicer than some of the bad pictures in the candid photos (but not a suite).

The room had all the gaudy Trump style - lots of gold fixtures, etc., but at least it all looked shiny and new. We had a modern comfy chaise lounge by the large window overlooking the pool deck. The bed was very comfortable.

It can be noisy, especially if the people above your room like to walk around a lot. Found it difficult to take a catnap b/c the people above us were in their room. Try and keep different hours than your neighbors.

Overall, for the price I was extremely impressed with the modern, nice room with good bathroom amenities. They allowed us to check-in early, around 11am. We were definitely the youngest people around, but as long as you're making your own fun, go for it!

Regarding location, we enjoyed walking to Harrah's which will give you a free $30 dinner buffet if it's your first sign up with them and you play for 30 minutes. We didn't find it a problem bolting across the freeway home from the Borgata at midnight either. Only a few cars to dodge. Took 7 minutes as opposed to waiting and riding the Jitney for an hour.

I would stay here again.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at the Trump Marina Hotel. We booked directly with the hotel and got a very good price for a crystal tower corner suite. Staying on a weekday will save you a lot of money. Upon check in we were upgraded to a one bedroom crystal tower suite without even requesting it. The room was beautiful. It even had two luxurious his and her bathrooms. We had a nice sitting area with a flat screen TV and a dining area with a wet bar, mini fridge and table for four. The air was always cold and never a problem. After having a drink in our room to celebrate our good fortune,we went downstairs to sign up for our trump one cards. We took advantage of a promotion they were running where the casino would cover your losses up to $100. Playing on their dime was a lot of fun. We had tried the marina buffet before and enjoyed it but decided to head over to the borgata to try their buffet,also very good. We then went to the boardwalk and had a few drinks at bally's beach bar and listened to live music. The jitneys are a very easy and convenient way to get around atlantic city. We headed back to the marina and stopped in at the Wave nightclub where they had a band playing 80's rock. This was a fun time. Our bed was very comfortable and cozy with the nicest comforter and linens. The next day we went over to the deck at the marina where we enjoyed watching the boaters dock and come up on deck for a drink or casual meal. This is a nice spot to relax. At night they usually have a deejay or live band performing. We would recommend the trump marina and would definitely stay here again.
