If you are looking to stay with the young and the hip on your next Vegas vacation, then the Hard Rock Hotel is the place to stay, with some of Vegas’s hottest entertainment, restaurants and nightspots.

Dubbed the world’s first “rock ‘n’ roll hotel and casino”, Hard Rock is all about the music from the drum cymbal light fixtures and Fender guitar-shaped door handles to the leather and steel walls of the parking garage elevator.  And the Hard Rock proudly displays the memorabilia collected from the artists that have stayed and played here.  There are leather jackets from Aerosmith, the Ramones, and U2 decorating the casino walls. Motorcycles once owned by Nikki Sixx of Motley Crus and Matt Sorum of Guns N’Roses guard the casino pit.  And autographed guitars, outrageous costumes, and more can be found throughout the hotel.

And behind the rock ‘n’ roll décor, there is a hedonistic spirit reminiscent of backstage to a KISS concert.  At night, this hotel is center stage for all the young and beautiful of Vegas who in order to ensure they have experienced the real Sin City dance and gamble the night away.  And during the day, the bronzed bodies lounge pool-side at arguably the most lush pool on the strip – with sandy beaches, tropical palms, and a swim-up blackjack table.   

At the casino tables you can rub elbows with rock musicians, models and NBA players who regularly chose Hard Rock for their vacation spot.  And to cater to such clientele, the Hard Rock has a wide variety of fine dining catering to anyone’s palate. 

Hard Rock’s most notable feature is its showroom, The Joint, which has helped bring back live music performances to Las Vegas hotels.  Steely Dan, the Ramones, Sting, Green Day, Ringo Starr, Duran Duran, Ozzy Osbourne, the Rolling Stones, The Who, and so many others have all played at The Joint.  Hard Rock has put rock ‘n’ roll on the Strip.
