Trump Plaza promises luxury and glamor, and charges for it. They deliver a reasonable accommodation with some nice touches and some drawbacks, which is my experience generally with the boardwalk casino hotels.
I stayed in the east tower, in a room facing the ocean. The floor-to-ceiling window provided an awesome ocean view, if compromised by the dead moth on the outside of the window and by the all-night mega sign from the Caesar's shopping pier roof blasting light into my room. Drawn curtains solved the light problem, but couldn't fix the thin-wall problem that kept me awake most of the night when I had loud neighbors.
The furniture was solid and substantial (hence my heavy lamps title), but stylishly unremarkable. Towels were lush, but the bathtub was narrow and I had to keep the shower curtain outside the tub to keep from getting wrapped up in it. Room service and hotel restaurants provided mediocre to good food.
When I was there in late September 2009, the Trump hotel and casino crowd were mostly retired folks from surrounding states and tourists from Asia. The casino was unremarkable. Directional signage was poor. Staff was pleasant and usually tried to be helpful, though they couldn't give directions to save their lives. Once I was lost in the middle of the casino, and I asked a floor manager how to get to one of their restaurants. She responded, "Oh, you have to go to the front!" and then promptly walked away.
The Trump Plaza is at a good location if you want to be near the Convention Hall, the shopping mall pier, and the Tropicana and Caesar's casinos. There's a more pre-gambling era feel to the boardwalk up north past Bally's--if you prefer that neighborhood, stay at one of the casino hotels or off-boardwalk places north of Bally's. This customer's view does not reflect the opinion of Atlanticcity.com Inc.
