New OC Hotel Completed

OCEAN CITY – Gillis Gilkerson President Dwight Miller recently announced the company’s completion of the new Hilton Tru Hotel at the former home to Planet Maze and Lost Galaxy Golf.

Some COVID related and others that were normal in a project of this scope,” said Mike Meoli, Hilton Tru, co-owner. “We were grateful we didn’t have to shut the site down. Gillis Gilkerson was professional in every way and thanks to them we have a wonderful hotel that is now open for business.”
