This is Why HARD ROCK Is the Hottest Hotel in Atlantic City

[@jojogirl5811]

When I’m at the hardrock AC I eat at the buffet, food court or the hardrock cafe…all reasonable prices and good!

[@IzunaSlap]

theres a White House Subs location inside the casino as well

[@lizzys6954]

Funny story I needed to share from when this was Taj. In the late 90s they did a remodel. My mom found strips of the new carpet in a dumpster and made them into rug runners for our home. They were so tacky being bright purple with the trim being little Taj Malahs. 😂 I have soooo many childhood memories at AC.

[@thelastlaugh40]

James, so happy you are doing experience videos in AC. Really want to know if it is still worth going to, so looking forward to the next two. I have watched your Vegas experience ones a ridiculous amount of times. They are really enjoyable and comfortable to watch and really helped me with my recent stay at Luxor. I'm glad you teased the idea in your live stream of doing Reno as well. Keep up the good work mate. Big fan from New Zealand.

[@CigarAttache]

You did your best to promote AC. It's actually surprising they survived COVID. The city was falling apart before that with several of major boardwalk casinos closed down. It's definitely worth experiencing one time...maybe LOL

[@Coolist]

AC has major weaknesses but some redeemable qualities too. I think the city is top-heavy with a few top resorts feasting, creating famine for the rest of the competitors and consequently a lot of the city. The whole ecosystem isn't thriving as a whole like Las Vegas.

[@johniii8147]

Yes, one and done

[@michaelkillins3318]

@Coolist you’re exactly right, I grew up by there. Borgata, Ocean, and Hard Rock are all nice properties and get the lions share of business in AC. Golden Nugget and Harrahs are handicapped by the lack of walkability on the marina side. The Caesar’s properties there are all outdated, but they get players wanting to cash in on their loyalty program (ex. play in AC to earn comps for a Vegas trip). The Pool after Dark at Harrah’s was fun for drinking though.

[@Piggy-Oink-Oink]

A.C. is still in decline. All Caesars properties are in bad shape. The staff don;t care, the rooms are dirty and out dated, slots very tight, there are insects in Trop , and Ceasars doesn;t give you the room you reserved months ago trying to strong arm you into their worst tower. Bally's is now not part of Caesars and doesnt offer much. Few food options. Borgata has low quality standards, plays loud hip hop all night, caters to the Jersey Shore tank top types. It's got Golden Nugget and Ocean..that;s about it .

[@michellejones8508]

I love Borgota and the Hard Rock. The Resorts is cool. I love to to AC for the change of scenery from Vegas. It's a lot less hustle and bustle 😂...They have some great restaurants there such as Dougherty at the Resorts. The Boardwalk is always exciting and sexy in the Summertime 😂❤ I LOVE AC FOR BEING AC AND NOT VEGAS ❤

[@PokrPro21]

Really good video. A.C. looks good and the casino looks nice with some good food!

[@thebestlifejeremy]

Well done as usual. I spend a lot of time in Vegas and recently went to AC for a few days and I truly don't understand why AC isn't more popular? It's Vegas on a beach 🏖

[@Coolist]

It should be much more popular. Seasonal weather & dreadful flight options combined with prolific Las Vegas expansion.

[@thehammer4625]

One of the problems is that there is a lot of negative stories about AC, but as you experienced, I believe most people would return if they visit and see it for themselves.

[@whobilly1]

It is only beach weather in late May, June, July, August, and part of September. That, and don't walk a few blocks off the boardwalk unless you want to get robbed.

[@CoreyLippin]

@@whobilly1 this is true, thats why I only stick with The Ocean (hotel), Hard Rock, Borgata and Harrahs. If I want to walk on a boardwalk I go to Ocean City or Wildwood

[@seascape35]

I live 100 miles from AC, but what draws me to LV are the incredible shows. Each night in Vegas, we would attend a different performance.

[@UNCLECHUDKINZ]

this year I went with caesars. already getting comp rooms all 3 casinos with very little play. free parking 10 tier points or stay. Walking to the nice north tower in HR was hell. 50$ late check in. tier credits update next day, caesers is instant plus online play counts. way better in my opinion but i had some fun times at HR

[@actinglikeseals]

My husband and I always joke about the lobby bar at the Hard Rock. At around 730-9pm, the average age must be 60+, and they’re all getting DOWNN to music from the 60s-70s. It’s absolutely amazing. Anytime we are somewhere and music of that era is playing, my husband and I die laughing at the “hard rock lobby bar music” Side note - there are consistently solid concerts / performers at the Etess Arena! Recommend checking out their schedule if that’s your thing!

[@Coolist]

The crowd in Atlantic City makes me feel so youthful :). And yes, hard rock does pull some BIG names.

[@Orlando_Steve]

It's not really like that at the Hard Rock Hollywood lobby bar.

[@RadioClambake]

I'm old now, but when I was a teen I was seconds from being shot to death in Rosarito Beach, Mexico. It's the Wild West down there, There's generally law, but it's not everywhere. But the tourist zones have a vested interest in keeping everyone safe. Great video!

[@anthonylagano]

Hey hey Mr James ! I remember the Taj Mahal. I went with my parents when it opened back in 1990 . The Hard Rock looked good except for that tragic outdoor pool lol. I only live 30 mins from the Hollywood Fl Hard Rock which I really like. I agree the Boardwalk adds a cool and fun vibe to the AC experience. I recall the beach sand being as hot as hades in the summer . Caesars Palace was where I would stay the most . I do get a lot of comp offers for the Borgata but have not been yet . Great review Sir 😎😎😎

Before Covid they had Daer nightclub in the Hard Rock. Got a table there with a bunch of my buddies and it was one of the best nights ever. Stumbling into the casino at 3AM after drinking is always a fun time too haha

[@JWD1992]

I love your comments on the AC beaches, which I think are very underrated. I love going there in the summer. But that's AC's problem: you can only enjoy the beaches here in NJ for like, at best, four months a year. It's really more like three months, and even then plenty of weekends get rained out. The rest of the year the weather in this state is cold and dreary, so AC loses the beach advantage and just becomes "the local craps game." And yes, there are far fewer restaurants open in AC during the week, as so many of the visitors are weekenders.

[@Coolist]

The unpredictable weather and short tourist season is a major hurdle for AC. Also, the dining is absolutely 2 rungs down from Vegas, maybe more.

[@bodyloverz30]

@@Coolist The same dining options are at the Hardrock Hollywood, as the Seminole Tribe owns them all. Oddly Atlantic City is family oriented, as the other Seminole properties aren't.

[@thehammer4625]

People were on the beach October 28 and 29, is was 78 degrees and sunny. There are plenty of local restaurants open 7 days a week. Dock’s Oyster House, Knife and Fork, Cafe 2825, Chef Vola’s. Next to Hard Rock is Resorts, they have several restaurants as well.

[@boganpainter1638]

*Council Oak Steakhouse. Council Bluffs is a city in Iowa. The rooms in the North Tower (formally Chairman’s Tower) were very mildly renovated when Hard Rock transitioned. The South Tower rooms were gutted as they were filled with mold. As for the flow of the place, it’s not any worse than it was as Taj, I wish they did more to improve it.

[@hurleyintl84]

Lol thanks as an Omaha resident. Why would they name a fine dining restaurant the same as the worse city in Iowa lol

[@nysavvy9241]

Thx James. I used to go to AC quite ofen from 2000...2007. All seasons every 6 weeks. All rooms were comped. We stayed mainly in Ballys but sometimes the Claridge and Cesars. Loved the location. Did lots os shows and even saw Madonna. Usually did a cafe for breakfast and buffet for dinner. There was a really good deli I believe in Ballys and sometimes we had dinner at Mortons steak house or an Italian restaurant in Cesars. I went once in 2013 as well. Must go back. Is Ballys gone?

[@lauradubose7233]

James, good & fair review- I wonder if the lack of night life & 21+ is because they’re riding the coattails of the Boardwalk -activities? And i was frustrated when the two best restaurants in our hotel were closed. Both pool areas were disappointing. Eh oh well. Where are you staying next in AC? All the best to you!

[@Coolist]

It's that, and also family hotels are destinations and major revenue drivers. Hard rock must've ran the analytics / demographics and spotted a gap in the market. It is definitely the premier family / all ages resort in AC

[@thehammer4625]

@@Coolistas for Hard Rock being a family resort, you seem to be basing that on a visit to the indoor pool in the summer. I’m guessing you don’t have kids, because this is what they like to do. If you walked next door to Resorts, you would have seen the same thing. Borgata has an adults only pool, I believe Bally’s has one and Caesars has one too.

Il Mulino is the best restaurant at The Hard Rock. Five star food and service. Very impressed on my last visit back in August. Overall not that impressed with the property. Sure it looks great and is a big improvement over the old run down Taj Mahal, but Atlantic City as a whole is amateur hour compared to Las Vegas.

I just stayed at the Showboat last week and regretted it completely; I definitely should have stayed at the Hard Rock; which is next door. Showboat had NO pool, one skeleton of a restaurant/diner that is open all day (the other that is only open after lunch). No Casino. And just flooded with families with kids. Most of the people there must have come from the community to go to the indoor waterpark (which of course is a SEPARATE purchase from the hotel).

[@GeeBree]

The biggest problem with Atlantic City is the rooms cost too much! We can go to Vegas for less. This area is blue collar so charging $500 + for a room is one of the main things that killed Atlantic City from the consumer side. Everyone just stopped going and then we started getting casinos closer to our cities. AC got greedy and it hasn't been the same. I remember staying in a huge suite at the Taj and playing poker and eating one of the best cheese steaks in the poker lunch room. The taj was soooo beautiful. People gambled at the taj and resorts but everyone stayed at the taj lol. The borgota came just as AC was going down. So everyone who could afford it started going to the Borgota. It's sad how bad it's fallen!!

Interesting about the lack of bars at the Hard Rock AC. The remodels of the Tampa and Hollywood Hard Rocks also de-emphasized the bars. It can be very difficult to even get a drink at peak times.

[@yoyoon9761]

When I went to AC in the 90's and 2000's, the beach had no sand at all. I mean, I guess the beach ground was packed sand, but it was hard like concrete, so even during the summer season, there was no one at the beach. Then in the early 2010's they dumped enormous amount of sand on the beach. It piled up to 3 feet high for miles and miles, I couldn't believe it. With that much sand, yeah, there were a whole bunch of people at the beach, but also sand was everywhere inside the casinos as well. I went back to AC a few years later, well, guess what, all that sand was gone. Obviously, AC beach has lost the ability to accumulate sand naturally with all that buildings on the beach front. I haven't been there for about 10 years or so, and judging from the amount of sand at the beach, they must've dumped sand there 2,3 years ago, and they need to do it again in the next year or so.

pool at hard rock is terrible with kids, they didnt change a thing. left it the exact same as Taj. They need an outdoor pool.
