Atlantic City, located in New Jersey (NJ) is a melting pot of hotels, casinos and restaurants. It is about 3 hours drive from NYC, making it the perfect weekend getaway even though thousands of people across the world visit Atlantic City to explore all that the city has to offer.
Choosing a hotel from Atlantic City’s huge pool can be a daunting task. Let face it, you want a nice hotel with great amenities, but do not want to break the bank.
The Sheraton Atlantic City Convention Center Hotel is a great find. One of the best things, apart from it’s reasonably price rates, is it’s location.
Location Is Key
The hotel is on the outskirts of central Atlantic City where the major congregate of hotels like Ballys and Caesars are located. However, the hotel is within very close walking distance to the boardwalk, all the casinos, restaurants and Tanger Outlet.
This location gives you a great deal of privacy and a peaceful stay. Moreover, there are no casinos, making it ideal for your family.
The hotel and the rooms are very spacious, clean and some has clear view of the city and ocean.
The Amenities
The Hotel’s Lobby is graced with the historic showcase of the Miss America Pageant and its replicated memorabilia collections.
The hotel has a large indoor swimming pool and an outdoor hot tub that can seat about 10-12 persons.
There is a 24-hr fitness gym,free media room with free WIFI, access to a computer and printing.
The hotel also has an onsite restaurants and bar for your dining pleasure.
Atlantic City Convention Center.
The Sheraton Hotel is directly across from the Convention Center. The center houses thousands of square feet with show rooms, meeting rooms and parking garage space.
A garden in-between the Sheraton Hotel and The Convention Center has an interactive bronze statue of Bert Parks holding a Miss America Crown.
When you place your head under the crown, a pre-recorded playback of the crowing of Miss America can be heard coming from speakers behind the statue.
The Wing Craft Kitchen & Beer Bar is about one block away from The Sheraton Hotel or 2-3 minutes walk.
The restaurant’s ambiance has a very rustic feel as its wildly unique flavored burgers, wings and beer selections.
It was a pleasurable and relaxing experience. The staff were provided very good customer service.
This Applebee’s Restaurant are a few steps from the hotel. This fast food chain serves a wide selection of menu items and drinks. The prices will not break your pocket.
Johnny Rockets Restaurant is accessible from the Atlantic City Boardwalk. Their specialty is Burgers and French Fries. It’s not ideal for a romantic dining experience. But you can crab a quick bite after the casino or a long walk on the boardwalk.
The Atlantic City Boardwalk is Atlantic City’s pride and joy. The 2 words that come to mind when you think about Atlantic City is the boardwalk and casinos.
The family friendly boardwalk is nestled between the beach and the wide array of restaurants. hotels, casinos, shops and a Korean War Memorial.

Informative article, just what I needed.
I’ve only ever heard of Atlantic City in films and TV shows, so I had no idea it was in New Jersey. Is Atlantic City the other well known place for gambling location in the US? Have you done any gambling there?
Thanks for dropping by Unwanted Life. Atlantic City is the city of gambling. I do not gamble as much. I mostly play the slot machines when I visit NJ.
