Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood

Overview

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood is the flagship property of the Seminole Tribe of Florida and one of the most recognizable casino resorts in the world. Located in Hollywood between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, the property's iconic Guitar Hotel — a 450-foot guitar-shaped tower that glows brilliantly at night — has become one of the most photographed structures in South Florida and a symbol of the Seminole Tribe's remarkable rise from near-extinction to billion-dollar enterprise.

The Seminole Tribe opened the first legal high-stakes bingo hall in the United States in 1979 in Hollywood, initiating the legal battle that would ultimately lead to the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988 and the era of tribal gaming across America. The Tribe's acquisition of the Hard Rock International brand in 2007 for $965 million gave them a globally recognized hospitality and entertainment platform to attach to their gaming operations.

The property underwent a transformative $1.5 billion expansion that completed in 2019, adding the Guitar Hotel, expansion of the gaming floor, new entertainment venues, restaurants, and resort amenities. The result is one of the most complete destination casino resorts in the United States — competitive with the largest Las Vegas properties on scale, entertainment, and luxury.

Gaming

The gaming floor features over 3,100 slot machines and 190+ live table games including blackjack, baccarat, craps, roulette, and ultimate Texas Hold'em — all offered under the Seminole Tribe's exclusive compact for banked card games in Florida. The poker room is the busiest in South Florida, running cash games 24/7 at multiple stakes and hosting the World Poker Tour events. A dedicated high-limit room serves premium players.

Hotel

The property's 1,300 hotel rooms span three towers — the Guitar Hotel (two guitar-shaped towers), the original tower, and the Cypress suites. The Guitar Hotel's upper floors offer panoramic views across Broward County to the Atlantic Ocean. The resort pool complex is one of the most elaborate in South Florida, featuring multiple pools, a lazy river, and cabana service.

Entertainment

Hard Rock Live at the Seminole Hard Rock is a 7,000-seat venue that consistently books the highest-profile touring acts in music. Daer Nightclub is South Florida's premier nightlife destination. The property hosts celebrity chef restaurants, the Kuro fine dining experience, and dozens of dining and bar concepts across the complex.
