Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "Disappointing to say the least" view full review

( 5 of 6 people found this review helpful)

Jul 18, 2009 : AtlanticCity.com customer

Ask me a question

I was very disappointed as I thought Bally's was more up-scale. For the price, our room was no better than your average motel. We have stayed at other casinos and found the rooms to be much nicer and even better priced. I do admit the lobby is very spacious and quite attractive and the casino was pretty much average, but does have quite a few older slot games. The Wild Wild West casino was Very disappointing. It certainly was not what I expected. But as the saying goes, live and learn.

Ask me a question

When we booked our room we were told it would have a king size bed or 2 doubles. When we arrived 3 hours after booking the room we were told that they had neither one left but they would give us a room with a view and a queen size bed. Nope,when we got to our room it was not a queen it was 1 double and my husband and myself being use to sleeping in a king size bed did not sleep well at all. The bed was way way to small for a restless sleeper like my husband. We had a nice view of the ocean though.

Comments : - I am sorry to hear this. However when beds, room types are requested, it is only based upon availabilty upon check in. Call us next time and we will make sure to take care of you.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "The Switch" view full review

Jun 17, 2009 : AtlanticCity.com customer

I made my reservations at Ballys through Atlantic City.com expecting to my hotel room to be in Ballys. When I got to the front desk I was told that if I booked through a third party I would be placed in the older part of the hotel the Claridge Tower. If that is the case I should have been told up front that the room was in the Claridge Tower and not Ballys itself. The room was older and worn and the elevators were slow and most of the service comes from Ballys.

Comments : - I am sorry to hear this. But there was no switch here, as the website says clearly the towers. Call us next time and we will make sure to take care of you.

Apr 19, 2009 : JeanneAnn Garito

I have stayed in this hotel before and I was very satisfied. This past weekend was not at all enjoyable. I first made reservations at Arturo's restaurant for a Friday night on Wednesday and on Thursday night I get a phone call from the restaurant saying that they had to cancel my reservation due to a private party. One of the main reasons for staying in this hotel was for this restaurant. The room next to use had sick coughing kids all night and I was unable to get any comfort or sleep. The bathroom was dirty and not kept nice. The paint was chipping off the wall it was just not clean.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "Horrible would never recommend to anyone" view full review

Mar 3, 2009 : AtlanticCity.com customer

Ask me a question

I was completely dissatisfied with the hotel. I thought I booked Ballys and was sent to the Claridge wing which looks like it hasn't been updated or cleaned since it was built. When asked to change rooms because I reserved a king bed for my husband and I to enjoy on what was supposed to be a romantic weekend getaway and was stuck with two double beds there was conveniently nothing available and I was unable to get my money back since I booked online so I was stuck staying there. We were also stuck staying next to a couple who we nicknamed Ike and Tina because they fought loudly throughout the night and morning. I swear the walls were made of paper. I will never again book Ballys for fear I will end up in the Claridge wing again nor will I recommend to any friends to stay there.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "Bally's Valentine's Getaway" view full review

Feb 19, 2009 : AtlanticCity.com customer

Checking in at Bally's took an hour. There were 3 representatives working the check-in desk and 4 or 5 standing around watching.
Other than that, it was a great stay! The restaurants we patronized were very good, although a touch on the expensive side. The hotel employees we asked for help and directions were all very friendly and courteous. The casino was clean (but not generous!) And the doughnut shop was really good and very popular with the guests.

Comments : - Great review. I wonder why these people were just standing around? Glad you had such a nice time! Thanks for using AtlanticCity.com.

Feb 17, 2009 : AtlanticCity.com customer

The Casino was absolutely awesome! I give the casino a 10! The room we stayed was very poor. Very over priced. No fridge or microwave, no balcony. Could not reserve a King Bed. Had to get two doubles. All in all, there's really not much more I could say. It was nice that the Casino was right on the boardwalk. I liked that it was close to all the other casinos. The rooms were the only bad part of this stay. We stayed at a days in for our third night and it was alot better room and half the price.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "AC too expensive" view full review

Ask me a question

Have had better rooms at a motel six, had a room in the older section of Ballys. Really like the tower, casino's and the resturants although you can get a weekend with a flight to Vegas for less money at a newer hotel. Seems that the Claridge section was another hotel taken over by Ballys and was not updated. The fitness center was fairly decent, really liked the steam room, although the jacuzzi was out of order (looked like that was permanent and unsightly.) Will stay at Caesars next time and most likely in Vegas.

Ask me a question

The hotel is good for what it cost. It is convenient as it is right next to Trump Plaza and even connected to Ceasars Palace. I spent most of my time at Ceasars because the employees at Ballys were very nasty. I ordered breakfast to the room and it was cold when it arrived 2 hours later. I recieved an attitude anytime I called for service whether it was to order food or to ask a question. Basically you get what you pay for. If you want to stay cheap and don't mind being talked down to then stay at Ballys.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "Bring your horse or donkey it's a long walk!" view full review

Oct 6, 2008 : Pearl Underwood

This place doesn't make accommodations for the elderly that are handicapped. My Dad has cancer and is limited to walking great distances and was forced to stay at the hotel next to the Wild West (owned by Ballys). I checked with the desk clerks on arrival and we were given rooms that required a great distance of walking to get to his room. I indicated to the check-in clerks several times that it was extremely difficult for my Dad to do a lot of walking. Nothing was close to the Casino without walking great lengths. Most of the time he stayed in his room to avoid the lengthy walk. We travel to Atlantic City twice a year and this is my Dad's favorite place to play the slots so we thought it was best to book rooms in the Casino he liked the most. We loved Atlantic City just to visit for his enjoyment but we are now considering other places with accommodations for the elderly and handicapped. Someone should have made suggestions on what was available because on our final day there we notices several scooters that we could have rented or at least have gotten a wheelchair to make his visit a little better. We spoke to numerous people there about accommodations to avoid walking such lengths and most acted like we were crazy and stated it is just up the hallway, maybe for them but not for an elderly man with a bad hip and one lung!! It was a great disappointment for all of us trying to find ways to get food and fun into Dad's schedule without him having to walk great lengths.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "Ballys offers great location " view full review

Sep 26, 2008 : AtlanticCity.com customer

Location, Location, Location! That was the best advantage to staying at Ballys. Also it has great casinos to choose from. The rooms were nice enough with great views of the ocean & boardwalk. Only problems were at check-in, we arrived after 2am and our reservations had been deleted therefore delaying us getting a room for 2 hours! Front desk staff were not eager to assist with it and offer any suggestion requiring hotel management to get involved. After lots of negotiations we were finally given a room that we had already paid for. It was worth the headache we loved the amenities, and the wonderful proximity to the boardwalk, outlet shopping, high end merchants, restaurants, action packed top notch casinos. I would definitely go back and very soon.

Sep 8, 2008 : AtlanticCity.com customer

The hotel was not what I has expected.My room was not clean when I came.I had to wait almost one hour to check-in.Only one restaurant available after 8 pm that was not too expensive and we had to wait in line so be seated for 30 minutes.The pool was small for everyone to swim in at the hotel.What entertainment do you have at this hotel at night besides casinos? This hotel had the lowest price when I was looking for rooms and this is why I stayed here.

Ballys Park Place & The Wild Wild West Casinos : "Awful Stay at Bally's" view full review

( 6 of 6 people found this review helpful)

Sep 8, 2008 : Elizabeth DePass

Since my husband and I only go to AC once a year and because of the economy, we decided to stay at Bally's, or we thought we were. We checked in with no problems, but they did not tell us that the room was in the Claridge House, not Bally's. Well, the room was very old and looks like it needed a bad makeover. It was very noisy and the low class people staying there were slamming doors and talking loud at all hours during the night. There were no security guards at the elevators so you have to be careful that you don't get mugged getting on the elevators. So it you do plan on staying at Bally's, make sure at check-in that you don't wind up in the Claridge House. It was just a terrible stay and would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Next time, we'll stay at the Borgata.

Ask me a question

The check in was very slow due to bus traffic- which we were part of. But the staff is friendly and the dining options were good. A bistro open 24 hrs with a really breakfast and excellent service; plus a bagel outlet and upscale dining.
Stay away from Johnny Rocket on the Boardwalk and avoid the casino ATM machines, if possible.

A great value is the Atlantic City Bar and Grill on Pacific Street; near the Boardwalk for seafood and a fun time. Ask for Gino.
