Atlantic City has run into a problem as of late. The town is jut too hip. A group of friensd of mine who used to always go to Vegas for bachelor parties were in town this past weekend. It took poking and proding just to get them a room for $400 a night. Holy snikees boss thats some big dough.
I did a little research after they left to see where they went wrong. First off they should have booked the rooms at least 2 months in advance. Maybe not booked but at least start shopping. Prices fluctuate constantly. I think the best place to check this out is probably Atlantic City Hotel Experts or the guys over at City Atlantic. They both offer in depth info on all the hotels in town. I figure with some planning you should be able to save about 25%.
The idea of getting a room comped is practically a myth on a Saturday Night in Atlantic City. You have to be a big player to get that done.
Best of luck. Hope I Helped.
