We stayed at the Taj Mahal because of it's proximity to the beach. The beach was nice but but the flies were relentless so we left. Casino was nice, the lobby was seriously smokey and stale. Gross. No attention to bling in the lobby. Looked like a nice Holiday inn. Location of hotel was too far away from the retail shops further down the strip. Overall very mediocre won't be back, sorry Donald....not your best work. By the way restaurants super expensive !!!!

15 years ago, my husband and I had just got married. We passed by the Taj Mahal and I got attracted by the lights on the outside of the casino but we'd just got married then and had no money to stay at the fancy hotel like that, so my husband had made a promise to me that if we come back again and we will stay here. Well, after all these years he fulfilled the promise to me, but I'm just surprised by it. You have to pay for the internet service and the pool is not very appealing the hot tubs outside is located on the top of the roof area, beside the air conditioners. Not good at all!!! I am very disappointed with it after all these years. For the same amount of money, I would stay in the Borgata or the Harrahs because they are new and you will be attracted by the grand entrance.

The hotel room was out dated. I stayed quite a few years ago and it looks like it's been twenty years since it's been updated. It really needs re-painting outside. The food needs upgrading too. The band in the lounge was the best. The room could have been much better. The TV only had one premium channel (HBO) The television was the newest thing in the room. Stayed in Room 4822.Take a notes on remodeled Tropicana hotel.

I had a great time playing tournament and cash game poker. Tournaments and tables are around taking place around the clock and I could enjoy playing Poker nearly 24h (I also had to sleep some hours). Professional dealers. Very nice personnel. A must to come back. Strongly recommended for people who love Poker and are just amateurs. I just missed that Sit & Gos are not organized. Otherwise my first experience at a casino was just great. The Taj Mahal offered everything from food, coffee, huge swimming pool, parking, etc.

The hotel room was very clean and it was a good size room as well. The rest of the hotel just seemed very old and outdated. The poker room was very unorganized, and I couldn't play what i exactly wanted to play. The restaurant prices where insanely expensive, and the quality you received for the price wasn't exactly worth " the bang for the buck" If I ever go back to Atlantic City, chances are I will never stay at this hotel again.

Taj Mahal was nice. The room had a great view. The room was huge for us all. I thought everything was fixed nice. I just wish the bathroom would have been a little bigger for me since I use a wheelchair and need enough space. Room service was not so good. They never came to tidy up the bed and took so long to bring me up a shower chair. Besides that though, everything else was good. I would rate the hotel an 8.

This hotel was not what we expected. The Trump Plaza was 100% better. We would not stay here again. The room and beds were too small for 4 persons. The casino was not what we expected at all. Too many employees there were not very friendly at the roulette tables, very snippy and rude. Security persons were very helpful. Bell boy was very courteous, friendly, and informative about the hotel. Valet Parking personel friendly and helpful. Room Service was not that great. Person delivering the food was very nice. Trump Plaza Food is much better in taste. I wuold rate that hotel a 5. Better service all the way around at Trump Plaza.

Rooms directions was poor we could not find a restaurant and kept getting sent to other ones and when we got there they were closed when they said they should be open poor service and bathrooms were not clean. I was very surprised I would have liked a little comp in the store. I would have played a lot more but had to go to another hotel for better comps and food . I enjoy the tables and was surprised by the over-all experience of the hotel nothing was easy to get to this was my first time and I was not happy at the Taj.

we were checked into a dirty room and was offered no apology for the inconvience. We were then placed in a down graded room. the front desk staff were unprofessional behind the desk (using obsenities and rude about other guests). The alarm clock in the room went of at 4:30am when it had not been set by either guests in the room. The breakfast buffet in sultans feast was value for money and open till a decent time. The casino was very good! The hotel is at the end of the boardwalk, which makes it a long walk to any of the other hotels.

my stay at this hotel this time was the worse of the 5 times i have stayed there. construction noise woke me up every morning. Everytime i went into the lobby i was approached by people to buy a timeshare. We had to try to duck these people every time we came in or left the casino. The food and service in the stage door deli was bad to say the least. On the bright side the check in staff did give us a room on the lower floors with a king size bed but all in all it was not as good as our last visit.

The casino smoking section should not be at the bottom of an escalator. Non smokers have to walk through the smoking area to get to the tables. The smoking area for slot machines would better serve in a separate area or room. There was not a night club for singles to go to. The Hard Rock Cafe has great food and service. Access to the beach and boardwalk is right out the back door and very convenient. The staff at the hotel were eager to please guests.

It was just what we needed. A nice ocean view relaxing night away and played some tables in the casino. Bed was very comfortable and the view was nice. Next time we stay in Atlantic City we would consider staying here again. Maybe for a few more nights next time. Over night stay you just can't use all of the facilities and enjoy the entire environment. We also ate at the Plate restaurant. Very reasonable prices. Every one very nice and helpful.

The hotel interior was nice and beautiful but interiors are not enough, also, staff and services should be equally nice and beautiful. We had bad experience in the Casino with a supervisor by the name of Jim who was not as courteous as others and was a bit rude, also, the no-smoking on gaming tables was a bit too much which killed the fun for smokers. The funny thing is that, gaming tables where smoking was allowed one day became a non-smoking table the next day (same table). This created some confusion among players who were embarrassed when they lit their cigarette. Lastly, on the day of our check out, the front desk lady gave me the bill. The bill only showed the amounts we spent at the restaurants and when I asked for the complete bill, the one that shows the room charges, taxes, etc., she said, I cannot give you this bill because you did not make the booking through us, you made it through another company. Make a long story short, she did not give me the bill and I cannot tell at this stage how much this trip cost me, go figure!

The room was not located near the elevators. The bathroom had a roll-in shower but the water drained onto the bathroom floor causing it to be slippery & dangerous. The grab-bars in the shower were not properly located & the handheld shower could not be taken off the wall. We requested a kingsize bed, which would have given us more room for my motorized wheelchair & my wife's walker, however we had 2 queensize beds. The complex is very wheelchair accessible, except for the room. I would not recommend this hotel for the disabled.
