It is owned and operated by MGM Resorts International . The casino hotel features 2,002 rooms and is the largest hotel in New Jersey . Borgata opened in July 2003 and is the top - grossing casino in Atlantic City . </P> <P> Borgata was part of a major project in Atlantic City nicknamed "The Tunnel Project", started around 1999 . When Steve Wynn planned the Le Jardin in Atlantic City, he wanted to connect a $330 million 2.5 - mile (4.0 km) tunnel from the Atlantic City Expressway to the new resort, later named the Atlantic City - Brigantine Connector, which would funnel incoming traffic off the Atlantic City Expressway into the city's marina district . This caused major controversy, as it would cut through a residential neighborhood and competitor Donald Trump sued Wynn for it saying that it was a "driveway" to his casino . The Tunnel Project did go on, even after Le Jardin was cancelled, finally opening in 2001 . </P>
