Atlantic City Casino Offers Free Lodging To Hurricane Victims

ATLANTIC CITY — Anyone displaced by Hurricane Florence and needs a place to stay can come to the Ocean Resort Casino here, a hotel official said.

The offer is open to any who lives in the Hurricane Florence impact zone and was displaced by the storm, said Bruce Deifik, chairman of Ocean Walk LLC.

“We completely understand the concern for families and the community during times like this, so we want to do our part by providing somewhere safe, warm and dry to those impacted by Hurricane Florence,” Deifik said in a release.

Visitors must present a current valid driver's license that shows they live in an area adversely affected by Hurricane Florence.

All efforts will be made to accommodate visitors, based on availability of space and rooms, he said.

The casino is located on the boardwalk and is the tallest building in Atlantic City. It has 1,399 guest rooms and suites.
