Resorts Casino Hotel opened in May 1978 as Atlantic City’s first legal casino. While most of its early competitors have since folded, Resorts has survived at its Boardwalk location for more than 40 years. Resorts certainly shows its age compared to some of its neighbors, but nonetheless offers a classic feel with plenty of casino gaming options, lots of choices for dining and entertainment, and a 940-plus room hotel.
