The city, which had 12 casinos when August began, now has just eight.

Revel announced that hotel guests had to be checked out on Monday morning, and that all reservations for stays beyond that date had been cancelled. Room deposits on such reservations were to be refunded.

The casino would remain open for an additional day, with all free slot play and gift cards required to be redeemed before 6 a.m. Tuesday. Casino chips and slot vouchers will still be able to be redeemed at the Revel General Cashier Office during weekday business hours until Sept. 30.

Revel also cancelled all events and concerts beyond Sept. 1.

The casino and hotel, which had been open just about two years, warned its employees earlier this summer that they could be out of a job if a buyer wasn’t found in bankruptcy court.
