Hard Rock Hotel and Casino

You’re probably going to hell anyway, might as well enjoy the ride!
The Hard Rock Hotel is a place for rock stars (and wannabes) to see and be seen, although gambling may not be the top activity at this hot spot for the young and young at heart. The entire place is decked out in rocker paraphernalia, from the motorcycles once owned by members of Guns N’ Roses and Motley Crue to the lines of cases featuring leather jackets from the likes of Aerosmith and U2. This hotel rocks the party 24/7, and while it may not get five stars for food or accommodations, it manages to pack a full house weekend after weekend.
Accommodations for Partying All Night Long
The hotel currently offers a selection of six different types of rooms and suites. The basic guest rooms are small, but feature sexy styling complete with leather furnishings and French doors that open to a stellar view. The suites provide different sizes that range from about 540 square feet for the executive suite to more than 1300 in the celebrity suite. The penthouse suite is a sight to behold, with a mosaic hot tub and a single lane electronic bowling alley. This room is definitely made for all kinds of action, baby.
Skip the Food – and Head Straight to the Party
The restaurants at the Hard Rock provide a nice selection, but most find the food to be less than stellar. But what rock star has time to eat when there are so many parties to attend?
The entertainment is where Hard Rock shines, with headline bands coming to play and party with guests. The Joint is a top concert venue, and Body English combines edgy music with seriously gorgeous women.
Speaking of women, it seems that all of Vegas’ hot ladies with a bad-girl edge are lounging at the Hard Rock pools. Don’t miss the eye candy lying out on the sandy beaches under the palm trees during the day. The pools also offer swim-up blackjack, so you can play a few hands while you work on your tan. Celebs often show up for Sunday Rehab, which is a highly touted event among visitors and locals alike.
Gambling with Go-Go Dancers
Of course, there’s gambling at the Hard Rock, although the casino area is small and noisy. The poker lounge offers private iPod docks so you can rock out while you play, and Hell’s Belles gives you a shot of hot go-go dancers that make it tough to concentrate on your blackjack game.
All in all, the Hard Rock lives up to its reputation for edgy rock and roll style. This place is made for the young partygoers, but the seasoned Vegas pros will also enjoy the memorabilia and the rockin’ ambiance.
