Harrah's Entertainment, the owners of Bally's Atlantic City just finished $60 million dollar renovation of the Dennis Hotel which included a full renovation of the rooms and its exterior.
Then as part of the renovation, Harrah's knocked down the gaudy retail strip that blocked the hotel and it's majestic courtyard from being seen from the boardwalk.
The sad part of this story is even though this might become a draw to those looking for a nostalgic stay in Atlantic City, Bally's does not differentiate the rooms in the Dennis hotel from everything else on their online reservations site. And from what we've heard, the rooms don't look all that different from the rest of the hotel either.
To think: Bally's could actually charge high rates for this type of accommodation! But at least we can now see a bit of the former glory of Atlantic City - even though it was really there the whole time!
