“The Hotel Room was fine, the casino was outdated and tacky”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

The hotel room in the Taj Tower was clean and relatively quiet. The hotel staff was able to provide us with extra towels very promptly upon request. Our view was of the ocean. The decor of this hotel was from 20 years ago. The casino area was outdated and the Indian Taj Mahal feel was quite tacky. The vibe at the table games was sort of depressing. We only did minimal gambling at the Taj and decided to have dinner and the majority of our evening at another hotel/casino (The Tropicana). The vibe at the Tropicana was much younger and more full of life. We did go to Ego bar because we had a $20 credit from the Groupon we purchased to buy the room. The Almost Angels performance at the Ego bar was a highlight. The 6 women and two men in the group were actually very good and entertaining. The only reason we booked the Trump Taj was due in fact to the Groupon deal. When we purchased the Groupon deal - we had to book it online. When calling the Taj, they were unable to process our Groupon over the phone. That was fine.

“Very nice”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

We decided to get away for a few days. We stayed at the Trump Taj Majal in one of their suites. I have to say that the bedding was absolutely comfortable. The mattresses were just dreamy! There was a wet bar in the room and a huge plasma tv! The furniture was stained and one of the lamp shades was broken. We figure for 400 dollars a night, everything would be in tip top shape. It was an experience, but we'll stay elsewhere next time.

Room Tip: I would recommend staying in a regular moderate priced room. THe suite was nice but needed fixing u...

“Large family get together”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Our family of about 20 people gathered over the New Year's holiday to enjoy some time together. We chose Trump Taj Mahal for the large indoor pool for our children to enjoy while some of the adults played cards. I remember thinking how impressive this hotel looked years ago. Now it's dated, dark and smoky. Unfortunately, the only rooms available to us were in the main tower which again, is in need of major updating. There is a newer wing where I would have preferred to be. I think we'll choose Caesar's or Borgata next time.

Room Tip: Ask to stay in the newer wing (not sure what it's called)

“AC fun”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012

people found this review helpful

My 95 year old mom and I stayed at Trump's Taj last month. We visited during the week so it was not very crowded. Checking in was a breeze. Unfortunately, the first room we checked into was either on the fourteenth or fifteenth floor. As soon as the elevator door opened onto the floor the smell of chlorine from the indoor pool was overwhelming. To make matters worse the nonsmoking room smelled of smoke. After a quick call to the lobby, we were changed to a room on the forty-second floor overlooking the ocean and the hotels of AC. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset and when the city lit up at night, it was very pretty. The room was immaculate as was the rest of the hotel.

Room Tip: Make sure you are on an upper floor. If you desire nonsmoking, stress this.
