Atlantic City: Recommendations?

[liucipher]

Sorry if this is a repeat question - tried searching for Atlantic City and didn't get anything too helpful.

I'm trying to plan a family event in Atlantic City for around New Years - any recommendations on good package deals, cardrooms/casinos, hotels, etc.?

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, for you the period around Xmas/New Year's in AC is the extremely high end stuff. The casinos know this and the rates and comps are taken by the high rollers.

In fact I know the New Years party in many of the casinos are geared to those who have pumped them with the loot and the casinos feel its a nice *gift* if the get them drunk during he celebrations. Its a great time to party and Ive done it regularly since I got my place there.

We were planning on going the 29th. I wasn't expecting much in terms of comps.

Hotel/casino recommendations? More specifically, any rooms spreading $1/$2 NL?

Thanks for the recommendations.

We're considering: Hilton, Sheraton, Sands, and Bally's

Anybody know which is the nicest? I know Bally's is the most expensive ...

I glanced online and only the Sands offers a poker room, but I heard it's smokey as all f*ck. So the poker room in the actual casino doesn't matter since I'll probably walk over to the Borgata or Tropicana.

Thanks for the help folks.

I'm pretty sure Bally's has a room too.
And I'm pretty sure you're not walking to the Borgata from there.

AC Sheraton is a very nice hotel...I highly recommend it. Also, you won't be walking to Borgata unless dancing amongst highway traffic is your idea of a vacation. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Have fun!
