Frommer's Review

Thanks to a combination of factors, the Trop's future has been in flux for years, with the result that little has been done to this hotel for much too long. Staying here is advisable only if location and price are more important to you than upkeep. But as a result, we can't say precisely what you are going to get when you come here, and it should be understood that any Trop attractions referenced in the rest of this book could be gone by the time you read this. In the meantime, rooms are basically clean '70s motel rooms, but a little bit nicer. You are better off staying in the Trop's Paradise Tower, where the rooms are slightly bigger and much easier on the eyes -- mock provincial, to be sure (check out the plaster molding and ceiling cornices -- a curious and welcome little touch). Bathrooms are also bigger here, but dull, except for the ones with Jacuzzis. The pool area is one of the best around and is the place's biggest draw. Note, however, that their touted swim-up blackjack is seasonal (read: summer only). The showroom currently hosts the Folies Bergere revue.

Facilities:
6 restaurants; 3 outdoor pools; casino; showrooms; wedding chapel; small health club; spa; video-game arcade; tour desk; car-rental desk; business center; salon; barber shop; laundry service; dry cleaning; executive-level rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
