Overall, I would rate this hotel average. You had to wait 5-10 minutes for hot water for the shower, the fan motor for the room heat was loud, and the Buffet was definitely not worth the price. Mr. Trump should fire himself for offering it. The manager of the Buffet should go to the Virginia City Buffet at the Wild West Casino to get an idea on how to run one.
As far as the casino goes, in three days I did not see one person getting a jackpot, there were many machines that were "out of order", and Security needs to be "beefed up". Every day I had people walking up to me begging for money, and in one section of the casino, every day there were groups of Asians who would sit and watch the people play. One or two of them would get up and sit down on either side of you when you sat down to play, for what reason I can't say, but it did make me and many people around me uncomfortable. You do not see these things at the Indian Casinos in upstate New York. All things said, we would probably stay at Bally's if we were ever to go back to Atlantic City.

We had previously stayed at the Trump Marina, and were satisfied with that location. This time, we decided to try a different hotel, and picked this one. It certainly had a different feel from the Trump Marina. We thought it was a bit more sterile, while the Marina had a more comfortable feeling. However, the room was extremely clean and comfortable. We did not find there to be too much to do in the evening, besides the casino. We would have liked to see a night club of some sort, especially for people over 40. A piano bar might be a good idea. The hotel is very convenient to shopping, restaurants, etc., and that was a plus. When we decide to come back to Atlantic City, we will try a different hotel.
Also, we had a bad experience with a total jerk with a Comp Card in one of the cafes. We were the only people in line for a table, and were about to be seated, when he came up and got in our faces and in the face of the hostess, complaining about our being in the wrong "location," and preventing him from being seated immediately. Get a grip, there was no one else in line.

Convenient to Caesar's Pier Shops and Restaurants. We visited because of the Boat Show - shuttles were provided. Dinner at Phillip's Seafood (on the pier) was excellent. Be sure to catch the water show at the end of the pier. Prices in Trump Plaza bars are outrageous. BYOB ! We were fortunate to get an ocean view room which was certainly a treat. If you arrive in a car, be sure to visit nearby Smithville and folks who enjoy the outdoors will certainly enjoy the 7 mile drive through the Brigantine Wildlife Refuge just a few miles north of Atlantic City off Rt 9.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel, and am very likely to return. I wish that the casino provided some poker tables. I feel like that would complete that area of the hotel. Everything else was very good, the service at check in/out was well done and the dining was also good. Perhaps a bar and/or restaurant geared more towards my demographic could help bring more people in. We considered staying at other hotels for that very reason. However, the stay was enjoyable and I'm sure we will be back

The staff was accommodating in room selection. The front staff gave my wife and I a beach front room when I requested it. The price was right so I booked the room. The room was clean when we checked in. I would consider booking the Trump Plaza again on our next stay in AC.The room was very nice. We ordered a King size bed No smoking and the mattress was of very good quality.
The view was beach front was looking over some debris from another facility.
The staff were accommodating.

Great hotel the room were very clean and the location was easy to get to off the highway. The Casinos could have had lower table playing amount at night. The hotel allowed us to check out late which was great after a long night of partying. The band that was playing in the hotel did a great job of getting the people to really enjoy them. The valet parking was just what every hotel needs and it was only five dollars. Great time all the way.

The hotel is located in a good spot. Centered on the boardwalk. The room was clean but the bathroom tile was cracked and the water in the sink ran very very slowly. For as much time and we spent in the room it was fine. The beds were comfortable and the t.v. worked what more do you need? The Casino was sufficient that I spent the whole night playing on their machines and found enough to entertain myself.

We stayed at the Trump Marina for our honeymoon. Although we lost all the money I did the dollar dance for, we still had a really nice time! We really enjoyed the rainforest cafe. Max's was a bit pricey but the food was excellent. One small annoyance was being hounded by all the people pushing us to go on the tour of the other casino opening. It got to a point where I was almost afraid to pass them. Some would'nt take no for an answer! But we would definately go back. It was worth it.

The Hotel is like living in a fantasy world. I fel like I was in a dream. The staff the cleaniness and everything I look foward to having on my time away from home. My companion and I were only there for one night, but we enjoyed our time there together. We spent time in the casino then we went for a nnice long walk on the boardwalk. We also went to our favorite restaurant P. F. Chang's for dinner.

I was very disappointed whenI got into my shower. I ended up standing in 2" of water. When I told the front desk at check-out,I was told "OK, I SORRY, WE'LL GET SOMEONE UP THERE SOON". My opinion on that is this. They mostly likely knew this from the last patons who stay in that room.As fror being a trump casino and hotel it definitely didn't seem to be any big deal.I guess I just thought it would be with more gaming tables and such. Thank-you for giving me a chance to give feed-back on my stay.

We absolutely loved the view and the customer service, however, the bathtubs were very small and narrow which is one of the things that my pregnant wife looks forward too when getting away is a good sized tub.
While we were mostly at a convention for the weekend with the mummers, we found that the hotel was georgeous. We really did not spend much time gambling but they really need to make the odds a little better.
Places like Bally's and Wild Wild West had tons of slots and the odds are much higher than with Trump.
We were very pleased with our ocean view room.

This was my second time staying at the Trump Plaza. My boyfriend and I were bummed because we went to the spa to relax together only to find out that the spas were separated for men only and women only. We were also upset because we requested a king size bed and the only room they had ready for us was a handicapped room. Also, our room did not have a booklet of all the dining/shopping/spa..ect. in the hotel. We called the housecleaning and they put us on hold for ten minutes. Then they finally picked up and said they would bring one up right away. Unfortunately, they never brought one to us. I do not suggest to play blackjack at this hotel because the tables are too expensive and they do not use enough decks so you will lose. However, I really enjoyed the slot machines this hotel had. They were different and fun!

It was our first return to Atlantic City since 1970!!!!!!!!!!!!!; quitw a few changes since then Had a fine time and will return. Tired of the Ct. casinos.
It's an easy place to get to for us as we jump on Interstate 91, to Interstate 84, then NYS Thruway south till Garden State direct to your door.
I am looking forward to coming back when Beach Season is in.
You should Market it as such.Also as an great stopover for those using the Cape May Ferry, the alternative to the road from hell when going south., I 95!!!!!
Trump can comp a stay to be sure we come back there, thanks

It was a little disappointing that after spending almost $800 on a two night stay that we couldn't receive a smoking and king bed size room. Then the room we were given was not cleaned properly, had a broken tv closet door and a splendid view of a/c ducts. But, upon notifying the staff, we were upgraded to a lovely suite and were very pleased with the expedited response due to our concerns. The dining and casinos were adequate, but the most disappointing aspect of the stay was the hour and a half wait for my car upon checkout.
