We stayed at the Revel recently, did not gamble a single penny, but we got a great deal on the room. The hotel part is really beautiful; wonderful views, lovely rooms, fantastic Spa and very good & varied eating places (both cheap & pricey). However, the residential area just outside of the hotel is blighted, with places I definitely would not walk at night, and the beach was pretty blah, too. Still, we were planning on going back ... guess not.
