Another great video. I appreciate all of your efforts and talents. I look forward to the old ones I haven’t seen and the new ones that will be coming. Cheers!
Stayed in the hrh tower last summer, thought it was top notch with an amazing view of the pool and strip (in the distance), staff were friendly and pool was amazing, would def go back
Seems your videos are one of a kind there in southern Nevada. Great the you are vlogging and documenting things as they are now. We'll all get to look back a decade and more in the future at what things were like now - in 2018.
I just got back from staying at the Hardrock. Not a bad hotel, but regardless of rebranding it was just a little too far from the Las Vegas Strip for us at around 1.2 miles away. If you are cost conscious, the Uber rides add up at around $11 each way with a $2 tip. Tried the buses, but they were not very efficient, but you can get a $5 bus pass that is good for all day.
That was the first hotel I stayed in on my first trip to Vegas...I've stayed in just about all the hotels on the strip now but you never forget you're first 😍
I love the Hard Rock so much I miss that place I stayed there a few times and when I took my roommate with me we got a suite at the Hard Rock. God Rest his soul he had a blast in Vegas even though he only got to go once
Probably PBC (Paradise Bay Club) I lived there too at that time and worked for the company that owned it (ConAm). What a great place to live and work back then. They tore it down to build "The Residences @ the Hard Rock" which never happened due to the economic collapse. Now it's the vacant lot in the end of this video. :(
The poker room at Hard Rock is also legendary. I've never been there because they don't spread the games I play; but they have many devoted professional grinders who hang there almost exclusively, day in and day out. I'm sure this change will, for the most part, be unwelcomed by them.
I actually love it here. Have stayed various times. It would be GREAT if it was on the strip. I wonder if they will still host "Rehab" after it is rebranded.
John Entwistle passed away in room 658 in the casino Tower so if you stay in that room remember drunk people will stop by periodically knock on the door screaming for John I know because I stayed in that room
Stayed there last year. They were in the process of renovating the center bar. The rooms are large, but it definitely could use a renovation. Furniture & pool area are getting a bit long in tooth.
I've never been inside the Hard Rock. Thanks for the tour before it gets re-branded. The Palms has been remodeled and has a great new buffet. I'd like to see you to a video at the Palms.
I am so sad to hear that the Hard Rock Hotel is not gonna be there in Vegas no more. When i moved to Vegas in the early 2000s that was the first place I went too. Being a musician I always loved going there to Eat out and see concerts. I met alot of cool people and had alot of fun. Ill never forget the Good times i had at the Hard Rock Hotel.
Lived in Vegas from 96-02. Went to the Hard Rock all the time. The center bar was great along with the side bar to the right of the main entrance. You should do a vid on the Rio. That casino was the shit back in the late 90's. They started the whole nightclubs in casinos scenarios.
It is a bit sad to see it change in the future. This was my party stomping grounds for years especially the circle bar in the casino. It used to just be a wooden bar with table n chairs. A fun pick up joint, although I 'm sure it still is.
Thank you for capturing. Im anxious to see what it will look like next. You may already know this, but we have a giant Hard Rock casino here in Tampa. Not as majestic tho
Thanks Dani....we made a special effort in the spring to look over as much of the Hard Rock as we could after hearing it was changing hands. Funny how you said it was to hot to walk from the strip, when we went it was so windy it blew sunglasses out of my shirt pocket across 3 lanes of traffic.....not chasing them..lol
This Hard Rock is not affiliated with Hard Rock International Seminole which just recently opened HR Atlantic City. This one was a stand alone and Richard Branson bought it. There was a rumor that HR International was going to purchase The Cosmopolitan. This one has more personality then the AC one by a mile.
Great video love all the rock and roll paraphernalia thank you so much for posting I sure hope they keep all the rock and roll stuff after the rebranding Have you guys ever gone up to the bull ring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on a Saturday night it doesn't cost much and it's great entertainment you should check it out , take care
If your driving from LA to Vegas, you might want to stop at Buffalo Bill's casino in Primm, Nevada, and go on the amusement rides. It might make a fun video of you on the roller coaster and the other rides. Primm is on the border between Nevada and California, and is about 30 miles from Las Vegas. there are about 4 or 5 casinos in Primm.
Thanks for the video! The Hard Rock Cafe was outside the hotel towards the street at the intersection. It's been closed for more than a couple of years. I guess part of the renovation?
Napster is building an underground network of cellular chambers beneath the strip. A series of small theaters connected by dark tunnels. It's called The CopyRight. Live music will be offered by cover bands performing re-creations of the music people love. Each chamber has it's own theme, patrons are bound to endure stellar performances. Universally, the place will be nostalgic. Children welcome, accommodations provided, attendance limited, reservations warranted, highly secured. Performers, staff, and management make-up the experience of a lifetime. Everyone in Las Vegas knows but No-one reveals this secret, revolutionary surprise that lurks beneath The Strip. It's The CopyRight. This place will be lit!
1 of the guys from Motley Crue who bought a motorcycle off a Hells Angel had the bike on displayed there & The Drug Addict from Sublime who overdosed had his note book full of lyrics had them there also.
About the only reason I ever enjoyed going to the HRC was because they kept it relatively dark inside so it had a better atmosphere, even when it was noon and 105 outside.
Do you think the Hard Rock Pool parties will go away? Damn I really liked the pool side black jack they had there. Back to NY NY I guess. Thanks Dani for the video.
Lydia is wonderful & a dear friend~ she would be very happy to meet you. I think she is there 10pm-2pm Tues- Saturday. Tell her your TH-cam subscriber recommended her to you! Mike Shevlin
Adriana M In Vegas change is their business model. Keep it fresh, keep it new, or people won't come back to see what the latest thing is. And if you cater to the drunk and drugged, your hotel is eventually going to be too run down and smelly for those who are neither. The city is famous or infamous for total renovations and if it is cheaper, implosions and starting over. This is a place where the "historic" buildings date from the 1940s and 1950s. Most of us have living relatives older than that. :) If you are sad over change in Vegas, you are going to be sad a lot.
Great Job! I was just driving by the place a few days ago and wondered what was going on? I remember late 90's Hard Rock Hotel, always bumping into celebrities. Palms copied their formula
There will be a lot more of them closing in the next decade as sports betting is metastasizing in the USA.The NYC area will have a sports book at the Meadowlands on Saturday.People will come to NYC for the Super Bowl from now on.
Dunkin, Chill, Day & Nite and Hoottenanny are staying after the rebrand. They are just getting a face lift so they look less Hard Rock and more Virgin...
the memorabilia is pretty cool, although they took down many of the pics on the wall near Paradise tower. The casino is weak as far as games/service/ and benefits. I also don't like that they evened out the casino floor a few years back. Previously it had a unique layout where everything on the outside was a few feet higher than the actual gambling area.
Thanks for letting us come along. Stay safe and careful take care 🌝😀
Vegas is changing so quickly but it's nice that somebody documents it as it changes
Thanks Lyle!
Vegas is always changing. That is why people keep coming.
@@Dani702 love I love you girlfriend

Thanks. I lived right next door to the HRH the first 4 months in Vegas about 15 years ago. Them were the days... :)
I bet you have some cool stories! Was Hofbrauhaus around when you lived there? I had so much fun there for Octoberfest. :)
Was it the Harbor? Must've been tough days ;-)
Probably PBC (Paradise Bay Club) I lived there too at that time and worked for the company that owned it (ConAm). What a great place to live and work back then. They tore it down to build "The Residences @ the Hard Rock" which never happened due to the economic collapse. Now it's the vacant lot in the end of this video. :(
PBC. Yes.
SUCH A FANTASTIC VIDEO THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING, I REALLY ENJOYED IT
Thank you Tracey!

Good vid, thanks for taking the time..I love this casino...hope the change doesn't kill this cozy little place,
I actually love it here. Have stayed various times. It would be GREAT if it was on the strip. I wonder if they will still host "Rehab" after it is rebranded.
Richard Branson owns the casino and will change the name to The Virgin Hotel. The employees will be known as Virgins and hotel guests as Hos.
John Entwistle passed away in room 658 in the casino Tower so if you stay in that room remember drunk people will stop by periodically knock on the door screaming for John I know because I stayed in that room
Oh no! haha.
chrisbayridge1 he died while in a famous sex act they said
Same thing happened to me
he o.d. on blow....
Who?
enjoyed your vids and gave me some good ideas for traveling. Subscribed. Keep up the great work.
Glad I stumbled across this... thanks for the fun video!
Stayed there last year. They were in the process of renovating the center bar. The rooms are large, but it definitely could use a renovation. Furniture & pool area are getting a bit long in tooth.
We'll always have the memories, what happened at The Hard Rock will stay at the Hard Rock!
Cool video.Keep 'Em coming. Thanks.
I've never been inside the Hard Rock. Thanks for the tour before it gets re-branded. The Palms has been remodeled and has a great new buffet. I'd like to see you to a video at the Palms.

That was an interesting tour of the HRH. Thanks :)
Giving it up for Vinnie! ❤ The new HellYeah album is coming out soon. I can't wait! Take care girlie! Love your channel!! 💋
The Gin Blossoms playing in the background LOL 👍🏼👍🏼
90's paradise!
Was a great Hotel. I hope Virgin remodel and rebrand its recently acquired hotel to perfection!! I cannot wait to see newly updated version
It is a bit sad to see it change in the future. This was my party stomping grounds for years especially the circle bar in the casino. It used to just be a wooden bar with table n chairs. A fun pick up joint, although I 'm sure it still is.
The Prince display gave me so many feels 😂🎸🎼🎤
Yes!! They had the whole outfit and guitar!
Thank you for capturing. Im anxious to see what it will look like next. You may already know this, but we have a giant Hard Rock casino here in Tampa. Not as majestic tho
I saw The Stones play The Joint in ‘97 (when it was an 800 seat venue.) Great show!
Love your walkthroughs!
Excellent Video! Thanks for sharing!!!!
You are so great and your videos are fantastic love seeing you on your adventures thanks
Thanks
I used to go hard rock hotel a lot. It's amazing inside^^
It is super cool! They have a ton of stuff in just the one hotel. Not much need to leave the resort.
The Center bar is bee YOU tee ful.
they probably send the rock n roll artifacts back to there warehouse/ archives building .
I saw Lucinda Williams in the Joint in 2002. She performed 2.5 songs and walked off the stage.
Nice video. I was only there in 2006. 🎸🤘🏼🇺🇸
Thanks Dani....we made a special effort in the spring to look over as much of the Hard Rock as we could after hearing it was changing hands. Funny how you said it was to hot to walk from the strip, when we went it was so windy it blew sunglasses out of my shirt pocket across 3 lanes of traffic.....not chasing them..lol
Oh no! Haha. The wind out here gets crazy. Yikes.
I live super close to there.. it's been a minute since ive been inside though. I guess I'll have to go take a look
Going to Vegas now you get that feeling like when you've stayed too late at a party after all the cool people have left.
Thanks for sharing. I don't think I'll get to the HRH before it's rebranded (I was at the cafe in '93). It was nice to get a peek inside.
Thank you for watching Gord!
Ty for sharing. Sharing is caring another great video
Thanks for watching Bruce!
Hahaha I love how you pan toward Nickelback but didn't mention a word about them. Great video! :)
Didn’t know it was sold!, thx for the info
First time I went to Vegas in 02 my family stopped in there I was only 14 and got a t-shirt.
I'm glad you did this video because I didn't know Virgin was taking over. Need to go see it again before it happens.
Christain, you will have to check it out before it's "erased from existence". haha!
I remember in the movie "Con Air" the giant guitar was smashed by a crashing plane
Did the baby in "honey I blew up the kid" play with the guitar too?
Dani.702 it was the one standing next to the restaurant that the baby's took off not the one on the yawning by the lobby.
Crazy that 4 years later it’s coming back and the mirage is Leaving.
Wow your videos get tons of traffic for such a small channel. Good for you. The google checks must be pretty nice.
cool i like the place was there 6 mouths ago for 2 weeks nice.

Just came across this Channel. Definitely subscribed
Great video love all the rock and roll paraphernalia thank you so much for posting I sure hope they keep all the rock and roll stuff after the rebranding
Have you guys ever gone up to the bull ring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on a Saturday night it doesn't cost much and it's great entertainment you should check it out , take care
Thank you! We've never been to the bull ring. That would be something fun to check out!
If your driving from LA to Vegas, you might want to stop at Buffalo Bill's casino in Primm, Nevada, and go on the amusement rides.

I was there the day that it opened. We were in a line at the front door waiting for them to let us in
great video Dani. Hard rock already looks nice but I can't wait to see what the Virgin Hotel looks like
I stopped in during the NHL awards....apparently I missed a lot of the hotel! Thanks for this.
another great video !!!!
Thank you Joey!
Thanks for the video! The Hard Rock Cafe was outside the hotel towards the street at the intersection. It's been closed for more than a couple of years. I guess part of the renovation?
That's right! I forgot the cafe was detached.
Wife and I have some awesome memories from partying at Rehab pool party. (: Hope the take over is a huge success? g-
Thanks for sharing!

you failed to mention one of the best shows in vegas raiding the rock vault that plays there!!!
1 of the guys from Motley Crue who bought a motorcycle off a Hells Angel had the bike on displayed there & The Drug Addict from Sublime who overdosed had his note book full of lyrics had them there also.
About the only reason I ever enjoyed going to the HRC was because they kept it relatively dark inside so it had a better atmosphere, even when it was noon and 105 outside.
3:20 Glad you didn’t list Nickleback as a “big band” 😄
....cool video...yeah it's a long walk from the strip ....they still have the Kurt Cobain display...with his iconic green sweater...
Do you think the Hard Rock Pool parties will go away? Damn I really liked the pool side black jack they had there. Back to NY NY I guess. Thanks Dani for the video.
Great video!! Can anyone use their shuttle to the strip or is it only for hotel guests? Do you know how often they run? TY
I'm just glad they're keeping DJ Lydia Ansel at The Center Bar!
I didn't realize until I was editing that the center bar had lights around it that in sync with the music. I'll have to check out DJ Lydia Ansel.
Lydia is wonderful & a dear friend~ she would be very happy to meet you. I think she is there 10pm-2pm Tues- Saturday. Tell her your TH-cam subscriber recommended her to you! Mike Shevlin
Thank's for a great video!! I ❤ LasVegas !!

Stayed there weeks ago. It was dead. The casino dealer blamed it on the location as it’s just off the strip. Location makes a huge difference.
Love your videos!
It was great when Morton ran it and it was a boutique casino and hotel with great rules and odds. Gone now.
Thank you Dani
Glad I’ve stayed there!
Great video, it’s kinda sad seeing Vegas change 😭

Great Job! I was just driving by the place a few days ago and wondered what was going on? I remember late 90's Hard Rock Hotel, always bumping into celebrities. Palms copied their formula
Thanks Dario! I can definitely see that with the Palms. That's another location I need to check out soon.
I want one of those guitar door knobs
Thanks for the info..great stuff.. Will you be doing ARIA? I love that place😎
Great video!!
Pretty cool video
GREAT VIDEO.............
There will be a lot more of them closing in the next decade as sports betting is metastasizing in the USA.The NYC area will have a sports book at the Meadowlands on Saturday.People will come to NYC for the Super Bowl from now on.
I totally see the gaga thing 🤨
I get it all the time. Even when I'm brunette haha.
I used to live in the apartments that are next to the Hard Rock Hotel.
You're definitely much prettier than Gaga. thanks for the tour before the rebranding.
New to your channel ..way cool😎
Great videos! :)
Just got home from Aria on Saturday!
Good, their casino is small and not impressive at all. That'll be good for the property.
Dunkin, Chill, Day & Nite and Hoottenanny are staying after the rebrand. They are just getting a face lift so they look less Hard Rock and more Virgin...
Thumbs up excellent video.
Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up!!!
Thanks for watching Sergeant Slotters!
Thanks for sharing that video Danny what are they going to do with all that memorabilia
Thanks Claire! I am not sure but I hope they put it someone accessible for us to see it.
Great vid thanks.................
the memorabilia is pretty cool, although they took down many of the pics on the wall near Paradise tower. The casino is weak as far as games/service/ and benefits. I also don't like that they evened out the casino floor a few years back. Previously it had a unique layout where everything on the outside was a few feet higher than the actual gambling area.
What places allow you and disallow you to record in the casino??
