Description and Basic Information ::

 Located at Brighton Avenue and the Boardwalk, the Tropicana Casino Resort is the largest hotel in the state of New Jersey. It has more than 1,600 hotel rooms and suites, in addition to eight restaurants, several lounges and numerous other amenities.
The Tropicana is recognized as one of the better Atlantic City casinos for mid-level gaming. Though most highrollers will find the table-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, as a specially designed photo identification system is used to ensure that players receive the “comps” due them.
Slot machine denominations range from 5 cents to $100. The Trop is home to the luxurious Crystal Room, a slot area with more than 80 slot machines in denominations ranging from $2 - $100. The Crystal Room features crystal chandeliers, vaulted ceilings and vibrating high-back slot chairs.
The Tropicana’s Showroom is Atlantic City’s first $1 million, Broadway-style-seating theater. All seats face forward and the aisles are wide and easily accessible to avoid crowding and obstructed views. Visitors are afforded the opportunity to select a preferred seat in advance.
Perhaps Tropicana’s greatest contribution to Atlantic City entertainment is the Comedy Stop located on the casino’s first floor. The Comedy Stop is an intimate comedy club that features celebrity comedians as well as rising-star comedians at an affordable price, seven nights a week. Showtimes are 9pm Sun.-Thurs., 9pm & 11:15pm Fri.-Sat. The price is $15 Sun.-Fri. and $17 Sat. Tickets can be purchased by visiting the Tropicana Box Office, located on the first floor, North Tower, (609) 340-4020, or by calling Ticketmaster at 1-800-736-1420. |
