Hard Rock Hotel and Casino

Love 6am construction, literally outside your window.... Went to this place for a WEC MMA fight... the venue is very small, but I like that... you can come in and out of the venue without any issues... walk up to the bar, buy some $12 drinks... outstanding! A couple fights I wasn't interested I headed out to the casino and won a couple hundred.. that's always nice. Long story short... my bitterness stems from the construction outside my room. Ok, I get it, you're remodeling the hotel. But freaking 6:30am start time... in VEGAS? forgedaboudit. i'll try and post a picture...…

messy people. I just wish I could give the Hard Rock pool 3 fab points. It's LLE, bitches. The pool is sooo.... is sooooo soooo uhhhh The hard rock pool is that one place i just. kinda. really. wanna. love.

I wish I felt love for Relax Pool Parties. I want to give them our highest rating...I just can't.

Now- I know that Relax and Rehab are very different. In fact, I have yet to enter the dangerous, cutthroat world of Rehab. Going to Rehab on a Sunday requires about a 40 pound deficit and 4 inch heels. Relax doesn't require all that jazz- cause it isn't a modeling contest.

But I think I'm not the only one who knows that.

In fact, I think that Relax kinda treats it's goers as C-level while Rehab is treated as quite A-list indeed. Herein lies my conflict.

I'm a local- I want to looovvveee Relax.

And I just do not....

Reinterpreting the swanky vibe of old Vegas for the rock-and-roll generation.. The Draw
Las Vegas' undisputed king of rock-and-roll hotels, the Hard Rock signaled the trend of a newer, cooler Vegas ever since it opened its gold guitar-handled doors in 1995. True, it's set off the beaten Strip path, but this place has no trouble reeling in the crowds thanks in large part to its two not-so-secret weapons: The Joint and the Beach Club. The former is the music venue which has seen everyone from The Rolling Stones to Velvet Revolver rock its stage, while the latter is an outdoor playground featuring a nearly mile-long pool replete with a sandy shore, thatched roof cabanas and walking hard bodies in perpetual "Spring Break" mode.

The Details
By Sin City standards, the casino itself is relatively small, with a simple circular layout--but that's a good thing. It makes elbow rubbing between celebrities (often spotted playing blackjack) and hot singles inevitable. Along with the "Tower of Power," an imposing display of LCD monitors, guests can pore over the mind-numbing amount of rock memorabilia, ranging from Axl's guitar to vintage Beatles merchandise and a wall devoted to Elvis. The calmest part of the hotel: The spacious, minimally decorated rooms, set with rare tour posters and French doors (which actually open), and amenities like a Bose CD stereo system, cotton robes and cable TV.

Hits: The pool area is truly unbeatable and the on-site restaurant choices--Mr.Lucky's 24-hour diner, Nobu, Ago and Pink Taco--make it unecessary to step foot onto the Strip. Plus, how cool is it to get into a leopard-print elevator and have (the non-Muzak version of) Aerosmith blasting?

Misses: Those who want to shop with their winnings will have to head out to one of the other big casinos--the few onsite boutiques are pretty one-note and limited.…

fun hotel. Their pool is great if you like to show of your bod or check out others. Plus they actually play decent (comparably) music in their casino, as I should hope they would. And I loved the flat screens and purple shiny bedspreads, best hotel decor I've seen in Vegas. Body English was just ok, I wouldn't pay to get in.…
