Pros: I didn't see any bugs, the front desk manager did comp our group for $60 at the buffet

   I Stayed On: March 24, 2009    I stayed here because: price
   Would I recommend it? No Way    My visit was for: Business    My Age is: 35 - 49
 
I came in as part of a group of 15 people. The person who set up our conference got a great price $49 per night with free parking and free breakfasts. Upon checkin, most people received an envelope with coupons for a buy one get one free breakfast, a parking voucher (good for one day, not the entire stay), free admission to the Spa for 2 guests or 10% off any service (closed by time we got out of our meetings, and one for match play. When people questioned the parking, they were told just to get a players card and parking would be free. Some people were not given coupons and the front desk staff was not helpful at all. My first room had minimal water pressure in the bathroom sink. I moved to another room and the water pressure was fine but the towel rack was coming out of the wall and the toilet seat moved (never repaired during our stay). There were burn holes in the rugs (non-smoking room) & wallpaper was peeling off the walls. My husband complained vigorously to the front desk manager and was able to obtain a comp for the buffet (closes at 7) which equated to $5 off per person. For $15 per person, the buffet was satisfactory. When I was trying to check out, there was no one at the front desk. There were 2 employees talking nearby and I asked them to call someone for me. They responded telling me to just "stay there, someone will see you on the camera." Several minutes later I asked them for assistance again and was told to just wait there. While I suppose this is all you can expect for $49 a night, I would never again stay at the Trump Marina, nor would I use ACHotels to reserve - for them to put up a group of business people without informing the person making the reservations about the state of disrepair at the hotel is unacceptable. This company and this hotel do not help in attracting visitors/business to Atlantic City.

I needed a weekend getaway to some place exciting and relaxing at the same time. I enjoyed my stay at the Trump Marina Casino. Rooms very clean and a decent size. Little pricey on the weekends but overall had a great time.

   I Stayed On: September 8, 2008    I stayed here because: Curious, looking for variety
   Would I recommend it? Yes!    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 50+
 
This was my husband's & my first stay at Trump Marina (usually we get comped at the Borgata), & we were pleasantly surprised! We got a good on-line price deal for a Mon./Tues. night stay, & found the basic room quite adequate for our needs (we were renting, not buying). It was clean & comfortable, although the walls were thin, & we did hear our neighbors on either side of us. Luckily, I brought ear-plugs. The hotel layout was compact, which meant we didn't have to do too much excess walking between our room & the casino area or food places. The Buffet, while not even close to the Borgata standards (nothing is), was more "down-home" like (more comparable to the casinos in Colorado), & we were able to find many choices to our liking. For lunches, we discovered a little pizzeria place with very reasonable prices & delicious food. They also had free tennis courts available -- a definite plus, in my book! The staff was friendly & helpful -- I think that tends to be a two-way street, wherever you go. Best of all, I play Blackjack, & was able to do VERY well, even though the number of tables available was somewhat limited. We will definitely include this casino in our repertoire, especially if they start sending us comps!

   I Stayed On: August 9, 2008    I stayed here because: Price
   Would I recommend it? Most Likely    My visit was for: Romantic Getaway    My Age is: 35 - 49
 
My husband and I decided at the last minute to celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary in Atlantic City and chose the Trump Marina for its more affordable room prices. We arrived on Saturday afternoon and enjoyed a few hours at the pool. We did not make reservations ahead of time for dinner, and ended up at the Seafood Buffet. THe food was average, and most of it was lukewarm at best. We then enjoyed a magic show which was part of our reservation package. We spent the rest of the evening between the Deck Bar, (which had an awesome band - - Dont Call Me Francis), the casino, the Casino Bar, and The Wave Nightclub. The room itself was quite nice, however the walls seemed to be paper thin as we could hear regular conversations between our neighbors in the adjoining rooms. Overall we were very pleased with the Hotel/Casino and would definitely return to the Trump Marina.

The overall hotel is beautiful. The room was very confortable and roomy. We had great view of bay and ocean. Ask for a room up high otherwise you'll be looking at the parking garage. The food was delicious but they offered us an "All You Can Eat" plan for $50 per person. They said we could use it for 24 hours. NOT...we could only use from check in to check out (check out was 12 noon...check in 4 pm). Couldn't walk to other casino's. Casino was kinda of dead with no sound of people winning.

   I Stayed On: August 7, 2008    I stayed here because: wanted to be by water
   Would I recommend it? Yes!    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 18 – 24
 
it was my and my boyfriend's first time in AC. The Marina was GREAT! It was clean people very helpful. IT was pretty secluded, not in the mix of chaos but we were still entertained in the casino. You have to take some type if auto to get anywhere. Not walking distance to anything. Little Jitney's 2$ and got us were we needed to go. WEnt to the tropicana, overrated. We weren't impressed and were anxious to go back to marina. THe Plaza, Caesar's, had great shopping, great boardwalk and beach, great restaurants. Still it was nice to go back to the MArina and still be close to the Borgata and Harrah's. We left happy. We would indeed stay again!

Hotel experts, great company,very pleased with internet service, would recommend this site to friends for hotel booking, was able to call and speak live to booking agent and she was very helpful. She was very knowledgeable about Trump Marina. She was extremely helpful with the questions I had due to the fact that I have never booked reservations on line before. Added bonus to the booking, two free tickets to the show at the casino. Great experience.Thanks Hotel Experts!!!!!

Overall, the experience at the Trump Marina was better than expected. Due to a late evening check-in, it was rather difficult to get bell service. It required several calls and a personal trip back to the lobby to have the bags brought to the room. The bell captains had, apparently, changed shifts and the additional help expected didn't arrive while we were waiting. The other negative was that there were not enough towels at the pool during the peak of the afternoon and the outside service didn't bring more for several hours. This necessitated a trip back to the room to get more towels from housekeeping. A very positive aspect of the stay was room service, which was a good value, arrived very quickly and was nicely provided and tasty.

I would not advise anyone staying at this hotel until they get their prices in line! You want to be a 5 star hotel, start representing yourself as such by reducing cost to be affordable to the common people. With this intact, decent people can stay without breaking their banks. The rewards to stay here does not match a 5 star hotel! The employees here do an excellent job but for the cost... get real, this is the real world and to encourage people to stay at your motel, try some incentives to encourage people to stay here. Casinos are now opening in other places and the hotel should give ordinary people an incentive to want to return. Amenities vs. cost to stay is ridiculous! Last time I stay here unless something changes.
