  • If you are arriving by rail, there is a complimentary jitney service that will take you from the Atlantic City rail station to the casinos. (Scroll to the bottom of the link).
  • It is a one-mile (20 minute walk) from the Tropicana Casino to the Carnegie Center via Pacific Avenue (see image below). Campers may also be interested in walking along the Boardwalk instead, which will add five minutes to total travel time.Walking Route from Tropicana to Carnegie

  1. Just tried to reserve the hotel room with the HSHUM code, only to be told by the system that it wasn’t valid. I entered the data twice to be sure I hadn’t mistyped. Here’s the response I received:

    Reasons for getting this page.
    1. The offer is invalid. (does not exist etc.)
    2. The offer is inactive.
    3. The arrival date selected is after the end date of the offer.
    4. The end date of the offer is before todays date.
    5. The page attempted cannot be accessed directly.
    HSHUM offer currently can not be booked due to one of the reasons above.

    Any explanation? It’s no big deal–if necessary, I’ll fork over the extra $20 for the standard room rate. Just wondering.
