No matter the season, The Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City stands as a premier destination, offering an array of experiences for every preference. Having explored its charms both in the warmth of summer and the crispness of winter, it’s evident why The Borgata remains a top choice for resort enthusiasts.
Originally opening its doors in 2003 as the city’s first new casino in over a decade, The Borgata has continued to captivate visitors. A recent $55 million redesign and rebranding of the former Water Club, now named the MGM Tower, further enhanced the resort’s allure. With over 700 guestrooms and suites receiving a makeover (totaling 2,000 rooms and suites at The Borgata), guests are welcomed into a world of refined luxury.
Our stay in the spacious queen suite at the MGM Tower during the peak of summer offered sweeping views of Atlantic City’s back bay, setting the stage for a memorable experience. Returning in December, The Borgata retained its charm, proving to be just as vibrant and welcoming in the winter months.
Here’s a glimpse into some highlights from our visit and ideas for your potential stay:
-
Casino Excitement: The 161,000-square-foot casino at The Borgata is a hub of entertainment. Explore its perimeter to discover excellent eateries and shops. The BetMGM Sportsbook & Bar offers a great spot for a quick meal and drinks while enjoying sports betting.
