Atlantic City Boardwalk Hotel Recommendations?

Trying to set up a bachelorette party in AC the last weekend in August. Can anyone recommend a good hotel on the boardwalk, preferably one that has rooms with balconies?

My sister stayed at the Borgota recently and she loved it... I have no idea if it has rooms with balconies.

The borgata is beautiful but it's not on the boardwalk - it's by the marina that doesn't have a boardwalk.

On the boardwalk there is Caesers, Showboat, Tropicana, Ballys, Claridge, etc. I don't know if any of them have a balcony. Bally's has a nice pool deck area that overlooks the boardwalk though.

My Favorite hotel is the Taj Mahal. I am going there the 18-20th actually. There are no balconies though. My FH is going that weekend for his bachelor party. I think they are staying at the Borgata. That is not on the boardwalk near the other casinos though. It is kinda far away from the others.

I know the Showboat has corner suites with balconies.

I think the suites in the Taj Mahal have balconies but they are VERY small.

I'm thinking the bride to be will have to get over the balcony thing - the suites are 3X the $ of the regular rooms.

Thank you guys for your input, I'll pass it on to the rest of the bridal party. If anyone can think of any place else, that'd be great.

Re: Atlantic City Boardwalk Hotel Recommendations?

I just remembered that years ago we had a family GTG in AC. We all stayed at the Atlantic Palace Suites - there were kitchens & living rooms that made it comfortable to just hang out vs. sitting in a traditional hotel room. They were less expensive then the casino hotels. It's located right on the boardwalk next to ripleys.
