The new tower will add 638 rooms and suites to the Seminole Hard Rock’s accommodation offerings, and another lower-level building inside the new development also will offer more rooms - for a total count of more than 1,300 units. Meanwhile, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood is undergoing a $1.5 billion expansion that includes a 450-foot-tall, guitar-shaped hotel scheduled to open in mid-2019. Venues include 177 cafes, 24 hotels and 11 casinos, plus Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
Hard Rock hotels, casinos and cafes now operate in 74 countries. It has been based in Orlando, while Seminole Gaming has operated out of Hollywood. The Seminole Tribe bought the Hard Rock hotel and casino chain in 2007. The move is about being “more efficient and more effective in working together as a global company,” Allen said.
