Atlantic County as a whole had 6,192 employer establishments in 2023 and another 21,009 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Atlantic County has 2.3 times the national share of hotels, inns and other lodging: 119 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, travelers compare rooms, rates and location, so the website should show rooms with real photos, amenities, location and how to reserve by email or through your booking channel.
