This was my second stay in Showboat, and first stay in the Bourbon Tower (tower closest to the boardwalk). Compared to the Orleans Tower room I had on a previous occasion, this room had a flat screen TV and a much larger, double sink bathroom. But otherwise there really is not that much of a difference. Of course the view... More

We reserved a premium room, at a regular price, for an overnight getaway to celebrate my sister’s bday. My sister and 2 other couples got their rooms as a groupon deal, but I did not. We arrived at the hotel, and everything started to go wrong: 1. Check-in – at time of checkin, around 1:30pm, we were informed by a... More

I travel frequently to gaming areas and I must say Showboat did impress me. Stopping in all the casinos/hotels on the strip I found Showboat had the largest variety of slot machines. As far at the room goes was spacious and comfortable. Could of been a bit cleaner (felt the mattress cover and sheets weren't too clean) and the front... More

It was clean, a beautiful room, staff was great. Michael on Roulette table friendly and Dana on black jack table very friendly and helpful. I didnt win but... More

We booked a room here for one night because we were seeing a concert at Revel, next door, and their prices were really out of our range. I didn't have high expectations for this hotel, and I truly am a pretty low-key person, but I was still disappointed. We stayed in the older tower (Orleans tower). The room, though I'm... More

We have stayed in several harrahs properties including the showboat. This trip was a last minute decision and showboat was available although we prefer caesars. The staff was extremely friendly and check in was a breeze. The view from the room does not matter to me as much as the room itself. That turned out to be helpful since our... More

I recently stayed at the Showboat on May 18th for one evening. We checked in at 4pm and stood in a 5 minute line, nothing too crazy. We requested a non smoking room on a higher floor. We were accomidated with a non smoking king size on the 17th floor of the New Tower. The room was basic and not... More

After reading some of the horrible reviews for Showboat in Atlantic City, I almost cancelled my room. After expecting the worst, I found the property to be overall, very good. Front desk people were nice and we got our room early. There were enough machines to choose from and bars all over for a drink. We stayed at the one... More
