You won’t see dogs playing poker — they’re banned from the gaming room floor — but one casino in Atlantic City has turned dog friendly, welcoming dogs into guest rooms and providing treats, food and water bowls and even a keepsake duffle bag.
Showboat has officially marked its territory as the only dog-friendly casino in Atlantic City.
The casino-hotel has set aside a collection of rooms in its New Orleans Tower to accommodate all kinds of canines.
“We’re thrilled to bring Pet Stay Atlantic City to our guests and provide the royal treatment to man’s best friend,” said Joe Domenico, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Showboat and Bally’s Atlantic City. “This initiative puts Showboat at the forefront of Atlantic City’s world-class offerings and will bring more customers to our casinos without having to leave their pets behind.”
On March 3rd Showboat Atlantic City presented a $1,000 donation to the Ocean City Humane Society in honor of their new guests. A party to kick off the new program was held last week in Showboat’s Club Harlem.
The pet program is open to dogs only and allows a maximum of 2 dogs up to 50 pounds per room. There is a $40 fee per night for pets, but the fee will be waived during the first two weeks of the program’s launch.
Dogs are allowed in the hotel but are not permitted on the casino floor or in food and beverage areas, the spa or retail shops.
