Location[edit]
Located between Park Place and Indiana Avenue, with an attached parking structure extending to Ohio Avenue, the Claridge is set off the Boardwalk behind Brighton Park. The Claridge stands next to the site where the Sands Atlantic City used to be located.
History[edit]
The Claridge Hotel is different from most Atlantic City resorts, because it did not grow out of a modest boarding house. It was the idea of Philadelphia architect John McShain who designed the 24-story,[1][2] 400-room hotel. Opened in 1930 during The Great Depression, the Claridge became the last of the great hotels built in Atlantic City near the Boardwalk; no new resorts rose in the city until the 1960s when a Howard Johnsons hotel was built along the boardwalk. Due to the Claridge's tall, slick, slender appearance it gained the nickname “The Skyscraper By The Sea'.
The Claridge was a successful hotel during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. Marilyn Monroe was a special guest there in the 1950s when she was a judge of the annual Miss America Pageant. Despite Atlantic City's downturn as a premier vacation resort in the 1960s, the hotel continued to operate and survived into the casino era.

Casino era[edit]
In February 1977, Claridge Associates, a group of Connecticut investors led by F. Francis D'Addario, purchased the Claridge Hotel. In 1979, they took on Del E. Webb Corporation as a partner in order to obtain financing.[3] Del Webb owned several Nevada casinos, including The Mint Hotel and Casino in Downtown Las Vegas. The Claridge hotel was expanded with 200 new guest rooms being built; it had the distinction of being the last of the pre-casino Atlantic City hotels to be refurbished into a casino. The New Jersey Governor at the time, Brendan Byrne, had been dissatisfied with what he called “Patch and Paint” jobs of the city's old resorts, which had been done with Resorts Atlantic City and the Dennis Hotel, which is part of Bally's Atlantic City, and he lobbied hard for the old structures to be torn down and replaced with new resorts.
Del Webb faced a difficult time obtaining a permanent license but finally obtained one in 1982. At that time, Del Webb bought out Claridge Associates' interest in the partnership.
In July 1981, the new casino opened under the name Del Webb's Claridge Hotel and Casino (the hotel eventually became known as Del Webb's Claridge and eventually just The Claridge). The London-themed hotel saw success early on with its multi-level casino and 600-seat showroom that featured names like Aretha Franklin, Donny & Marie, Billy Crystal, Penn & Teller, Joan Rivers, The Isley Brothers, and The 5th Dimension. As larger casinos were built in the city, the Claridge had a hard time competing as a small casino in a large market. In the 1990s, a parking garage was added.
In 2001, Park Place Entertainment purchased[4] the property and a year later formally announced plans to merge operations with Bally's Atlantic City. As a result, the Claridge became a hotel tower for Bally's. In 2009, all of the Claridge's own restaurants ceased operation, but a small cafe, 'The Corner Cafe', that continues to operate in the Gateway area that connects the Claridge Tower with Bally's.
In 2009, the Claridge rebranded its casino floor theRIDGE, and modeled the floor after a dance club, with a dance floor and DJ at its center, surrounded by table games. An extensive restoration was completed during the summer of 2010 through spring 2011, including a $3 million renovation of all hotel rooms and a $17 million facelift of the outside structure. But this was not enough to save its gambling business in the wake of a catastrophic period for Atlantic City's casinos, several of which filed for bankruptcy or closed altogether. theRIDGE ended its gambling and food operations during the winter of 2012; however, Bally's continued to use its 500 hotel rooms for guests.
Current status[edit]
On October 29, 2013, Caesars Entertainment announced that the Claridge tower was sold to TJM Properties of Clearwater, Florida. According to the statement, TJM will continue to operate the hotel and add non-gaming amenities to the property.[5][6] On February 24, 2014, TJM Properties officially took ownership of the Claridge.[7] The Claridge Hotel reopened in May 2014.[8] The Claridge joined Radisson Hotels on October 17, 2016.[9]

New Jersey is one of the few states in the U.S. where you can play in both online and physical (or “brick and mortar”) casinos.

We’ll treat each of these below.
Online Slots in New Jersey
Online slots are the most popular game in New Jersey’s online casinos. Players love the simplicity and variety of these exciting online slots games. Slots do not require too much skill orpreparation, therefore they are easy and entertaining, occasionally bringing in massive winnings for players. Slots have been a casino attraction since before the internet even existed andcomprise around 80% of the games in most online casino libraries.
Best New Jersey Online Casinos for Slots
Golden Nugget has the most slots games of any legal online casino in the U.S. They currently have 618 slots games! These include games like Blood Suckers, with an incredibly high RTP of98%.
Play Blood Suckers at Golden Nugget in New Jersey!
But in fact, all of the online casinos in New Jersey have an amazing selection of slots. These are our recommendations for the 5 Best Online Slots providers in New Jersey:
- Golden Nugget: 610 slots games, 8 Jackpots
- 888: 555 slots, 52 Jackpots (23 Exclusives: Millionaire Genie, Aztec Realm, Noche de los Muertos, Mermaid Millions, Jack’s Pot, Rise of the Pharaohs, Oktoberfest Spins, Irish Riches, the Unholy, Valentine’s Victory, Snack Time, Treasure Fair, Saved by the Bells, Legion of Luxury, Ultimate Universe, Diamonds Delight, Under Construction, Pizza Palooza,Ultimate Grill Thrills, Jackpot Jockey, Transylvania Mania, Happy Faces, Jungle Goals)

Rather than being tempted by the number of different slots games on offer, our recommendation is that you always go for the best promotion being offered by a casino.
Bonus dollars have the best playthrough value on slots (as opposed to some table games), so that’s to your advantage if you’re a slots player.
Online Casino Table Games in New Jersey
The table games in New Jersey’s online casino include most of the table games you’ll find at any casino, including:
- Blackjack
- Roulette
- Craps
- Baccarat
You’ll also find more alternative table games in online casinos, like Hi-Lo Solitaire.
Online Casino Game Variety in New Jersey
There are a number of games that you’ll only find online.
For example, Three Wheel Roulette, where you have triple the action and enhanced betting opportunities, is only available online. While online live games are identical to the kinds of games yousee in casinos, digital games have some exciting options that can give you a new approach to a familiar game.
But it should also be pointed out that you’re more likely to introduce your own variety to your playing when you’re at an online casino. This is simply because it’s easier to switch betweendifferent games in an online casino.
Online Blackjack
Blackjack is the most popular table game at a casino. At New Jersey’s online casinos, you’ll find blackjack versions including:
- Atlantic City blackjack
- Multi-hand blackjack
- American Blackjack
- High stakes Blackjack
- 777 blackjack
Many online casinos in New Jersey also offer live dealer blackjack. Read the live dealer section below to find out more about that.
Online Roulette
Online casinos also offer several variations of roulette, many of which you won’t find in a casino. Roulette variations include:
- Three-wheel Roulette
- Double bonus spin roulette
- Roulette advanced
- Super stakes Roulette
- Roulette master
- American Roulette
- Low stakes and High limit European Roulette
- French Roulette
Many online casinos in New Jersey also offer live dealer roulette.
Online Craps
Online craps is the second most popular table game in many online casinos. Craps has one of the best bets you’ll find in any table game (see our craps strategy article for all you needthere!).
Online Poker in New Jersey
New Jersey online casinos offer up to three kinds of online poker:
Video poker: a software-based game where cards are animated and you play against the computer.
Live dealer poker: here you play with other players at a table with a live dealer.
Online poker tournaments: play with other players but without a live dealer. WSOP allows you to play with other players in states where gambling is legal. So New Jersey pokerscan play against others from Nevada, Pennsylvania, or Delaware, for example.
NJ Poker apps
Online poker apps are legal in New Jersey, as long as you use one of the online casinos we’ve named. NJ online poker apps generally mimic the desktop versions of these games. Mobile pokerrequires quite a bit of information to be displayed on the screen, however, mobile poker apps have done well figuring out the best way to display this.
For those players who prefer to play at a faster pace, there are “fast-fold poker” options now on many different mobile casino apps.
Poker Variations in New Jersey
Online poker is one of the biggest trends in the U.S. right now. If you’re a poker player, New Jersey’s online casinos offer you over 20 poker variations. Here are some of the more popularpoker variations you’ll find in New Jersey online casinos:

- Deuces wild
- Aces and faces

- Destiny poker
- DJ Wild Stud poker
- Double Double Regal poker
- Triple- and Five-play Draw poker (Multi-hand)
Mobile Casino Apps in New Jersey
Online gambling on mobile apps has become a huge part of the NJ online casino industry. The days of playing cards and physical casinos being the only way a person could gamble is a thing of thepast now. We have seen big steps toward evolving the casino industry, and one example is betting on mobile devices. Online casino games were at one point an exciting new innovation, however,now people want to be able to access everything via mobile devices.
Mobile apps offer amazing convenience and simplicity. One could simply play slots and earn real money while waiting in line at the supermarket or in a layover at the airport, for example.
Slots are the most popular of the online casino games, therefore, players can find hundreds of different titles to choose from, depending on the mobile casino app.
Although certain table games may require a significant amount of information to be displayed on the screen in order to play the game online, mobile apps have figured out creative ways of makingthis possible so that these games are available to players on mobile casinos.
Are mobile casino apps the same as the browser-based versions?
All of the online casinos have apps for smartphones and tablets as well. While you still have an enormous collection of games available on the apps, the web pages generally have more games thanyou’ll find on the apps. Unfortunately, you cannot play legal online casino games by accessing a casino’s webpage through your phone’s browser (say, by using Safari on your iPhone or Chromethrough an Android).
You can, however, play live casino games through the apps. That means you have a live dealer in your back pocket, ready to play wherever you are in New Jersey.
Top 3 Mobile Casino Apps in NJ
These are our top 3 mobile casino apps based on our reviews.
- Golden Nugget: best slots selection; bug-free operation; great bonuses and rewards program
- Sugarhouse: great game selection; excellent software; good initial bonuses
- 888: great initial bonus; enormous game selection; good live casino selection
Live Dealer Games In New Jersey
Since the online casino market opened up, there has been a shift toward NJ live dealer games. Live dealer games take place at a physical casino or studio that streams games in real-time. Livecasino games involve real dealers and real players, however, players view the game from their own personal devices.
Live dealer games have achieved so much popularity through combining the excitement of playing casino games in a live situation with the comfort of playing at home on a personal computer inyour own home. Payouts are managed through the player’s online gambling account.
When did live dealer casino games begin?
Live dealer games have been around since 2016 but were made popular a few years later once more NJ online casinos began offering live dealer options. The first to launch a live dealer casinogame was Golden Nugget when they launched Casino Hold’em. Betfair Casino followed suit, sharing a live studio space with Golden Nugget. Now, Golden Nugget offers eight live dealer gamesincluding:
- Blackjack
- Roulette
- Baccarat
- Casino poker
- Live casino floor roulette
What are the major live casino developers?
Several online casinos partnered with Evolution Gaming and live dealer games were launched at 888 Casino, SugarHouse online casino, and Hard Rock casino online.
Are live dealer casino games legal in New Jersey?
These games can be played from anywhere in New Jersey. Players must be at least 21 years of age to play while being physically located within the state. It is also important to have a secureinternet connection. As long as you are of legal age to gamble and within a legal jurisdiction, you can take part in any live dealer casino games.
