Security guards said Tomic closed the door on them and refused to turn down the music, so they called police.
When police officers showed up at Tomic's door to evict him, they told him several times that he would be arrested if he didn't leave.
After all the guests left, Tomic "willfully remained in the room" and refused to leave, police said.
Tomic, who is ranked No. 25 in the world by the Association of Tennis Professionals, won the 2013 Apia International Sydney and the 2014 Claro Open Colombia. He also advanced to the quarterfinals at Wimbledon in 2011.
