The largest Caesars-brand property in town, the only Atlantic City casino with a year-round retractable-dome pool, and the operational benchmark for marina-side conference business.
“The largest Caesars-brand property in town, the only Atlantic City casino with a year-round retractable-dome pool, and the operational benchmark for marina-side conference business.”
Harrah's Resort Atlantic City opened on November 22, 1980, as the city's fifth post-legalization casino and the first off the Boardwalk, on a Marina District peninsula bordered by Absecon Inlet rather than the Atlantic. The property was developed by Harrah's Entertainment as the East Coast counterpart to its Reno and Lake Tahoe properties, and remains a Caesars Entertainment flagship and Caesars Rewards destination. Five separate guest towers (the original 1980 Coastal Tower, the 1986 all-suite Atrium Tower, the 1997 Marina Tower, the 2002 twenty-five-story Bayview Tower, and the 2008 Waterfront Tower) combine into a 2,589-room inventory that makes Harrah's the largest hotel in Atlantic City by room count and the second-largest casino-resort in the state of New Jersey.
Guest rooms vary considerably by tower. The Waterfront Tower delivers the contemporary refit (oversized 425-square-foot Deluxe Rooms with marble bathrooms, the Marina-and-Atlantic-skyline view, and the most current technology package), the Bayview Tower handles the standard inventory at the more competitive price point, and the Atrium Tower offers the all-suite category with separate sitting rooms and the Caesars Diamond Lounge access. The Waterfront Suite, the Marina Suite, and the Atrium Penthouse categories sit above; all premium suites feature dedicated concierge service, the Diamond Lounge, and priority casino-host attention. The Caesars Rewards programme delivers Tier Credits across every outlet, transferable to Caesars Palace Las Vegas and the broader Caesars portfolio.
The property's signature recreational asset is The Pool, a 86,000-square-foot domed indoor pool complex with a retractable glass roof, sand-base poolside cabanas, a swim-up bar, and Atlantic City's only year-round resort pool programme. After dark The Pool transforms into The Pool After Dark, the city's longest-running Saturday-night pool club and a Marina-district nightlife anchor. The Red Door Spa by Elizabeth Arden (the Caesars Entertainment in-house spa partner) operates twelve treatment rooms; the 35,000-square-foot Atlantic Conference Center handles the property's substantial group business; and the 155,000-square-foot casino floor preserves a more contemporary aesthetic than the Boardwalk heritage properties, with 2,400 slot machines, 170 table games, and a dedicated WSOP Poker Room.
Dining runs eight outlets including McCormick & Schmick's Seafood (the chain's flagship East Coast location with the Marina view), Reserve Cut by Albert Allen (the kosher-steakhouse New York transplant), Martorano's Italian American (a Steve Martorano concept), and the 24-hour Eden's Cafe diner. The Marina District location trades the Boardwalk experience for direct waterfront, the AC Expressway connector (the fastest exit from town toward the Garden State Parkway), and the only purpose-built casino-resort the city has from the post-Boardwalk-era development cycle. For travellers prioritising operational scale, conference capability, and the year-round pool over Boardwalk character, Harrah's remains the Marina reference address.
The 35,000-square-foot Atlantic Conference Center across two levels, the dedicated breakout rooms, the Waterfront Suite category for executive accommodations, the Reserve Cut and McCormick & Schmick's options for client dinners, and the Atlantic City Expressway adjacency for fly-in delegates make Harrah's the city's most operationally credible large-meeting venue. Caesars Rewards Diamond and Seven Stars tiers receive priority booking and Atrium Tower upgrades.
The Pool After Dark Saturday-night programme is the city's longest-running indoor day-club, the Atrium all-suite category supports group-host arrangements, the 155,000-square-foot casino floor handles every gaming-budget tier, and the Marina District separation from the Boardwalk gives groups a more contained perimeter than Pacific Avenue. Caesars Rewards group bookings can be coordinated across multiple suites.
The retractable-dome year-round pool is the city's only family-credible swim option outside summer, the Waterfront Tower connecting-room category handles parents-plus-kids configurations, Eden's Cafe and Martorano's run kid-acceptable menus, and the Marina District location keeps the casino floor at arm's length from the family pool area. Caesars Rewards FreePlay can offset family-trip resort fees.
