Which Atlantic City casinos have free parking?

I know the Sands used to have free parking, just had to show the club card, but heard they have closed. Would appreciate knowing which boardwalk casinos currently have free parking, and how difficult it is to qualify for it (just get a card like Sands or what)? As close to the Tropicana as possible would be best. Thanks for any info!

Free parking at Showboat with a rewards card. i don't know about anywhere else, however.

I don't know of any others offhand, but FWIW if you park at one site you get a free pass for any other casino. I haven't paid for parking in quite a while but I believe it's a 24 hour pass.

Sands is due for demo and the site is supposed to become a huge mega casino.

I think the Harrah's properties still have free parking with a Total Rewards card. If thats the case, Bally's could be worth a try. Its not that far from Trop if I remember right.

Don't think Bally's or Caesars are free (although at certain hours they might), although IF you have higher tier cards I'm sure some of these places offer free parking.

Trump Plaza and Showboat are the only two casinos on the Boardwalk where you can currently park for free. However, both require you to show your players card upon entry. Harrah's Marina also has free parking for players card members.

At Bally's and Ceasars, you will have to pay for parking on your way out unless you have a Platnium or higher card or earn 25 reward credits in one day, in which you can receive a free parking coupon. Parking costs can vary, from $5 during the week to $15 during weekends and holidays.

I was in AC Thursday night. I stayed at the Trump Taj Mahal and played in the Taj poker room but parked my vehicle at Showboat. I know people who play in the Borgata poker room but park their car at Harrah's Marina and walk becuase it is free. There are plently of ways to avoid paying for parking, you just have to be creative and not mind walking a little.

Hope the information helps.

I went down to AC with my friend the other day for some presentation at one of the non-casino hotels. The lot there was charging 10 bucks to get it. I declined since casinos usually only charge 5 bucks. So we went to the closest casino, Resorts.

They were charging 20 bucks to get in if you didnt have a Resorts Card......

How long a walk is it from the Harrah's Marina to the Borgata? Is it a safe walk while carrying a lot of money at night? Actually I love the poker room at the Borgata but miss being able to take a nice walk on the boardwalk for a break halfway through the day.
