What guests think

The Guitar Hotel at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino impresses with its striking design, spacious rooms, multiple pools, concerts, and on‑site dining and shopping, but guests repeatedly note very high prices and a smoky casino environment.

Service ranges from friendly and accommodating to disorganized, with common complaints about slow or delayed check‑in, long waits for assistance, and inconsistent responsiveness. Cleanliness and housekeeping are mixed, with many clean stays but recurring reports of missed room service, leftover debris, or maintenance issues. Pools and public areas can be crowded, chairs hard to get, hours and access sometimes restricted for events, and parking or valet logistics can be frustrating. Expect a lively, self‑contained resort stay best for those who enjoy on‑site entertainment.

The experience is amazing. Valet, then being smacked in the face with an entrance that is amazingly opulent. Walk by the steakhouse into a luxurious room. Beautiful view of the pool. The Spa so good. The pool area is 10/10. A Concert right on the premises topped it off.

2nd time staying. Our first day was a bit of a write off, the lobby was having construction done so they shut down all the pools for a few hours … the old HARDROCK pool is not open during the week anymore either . Marc , the pool manager was helpful but had no power to give us any perks or compensation of the resort fee for the day we couldn’t go outside until lunch.

Pros: Restaurants are nice and expensive as expected , services are top notch ~ Swimming pools are nice , not too crowded. Cons: if you travel with an electric car , expect all the charging ports taken . People are parking their non-electric cars on the EV charging spot and nobody cares . We finally chose to pay for valet parking and let the staff take care of charging our car for us . It’s $35/night. Smokers are everywhere !!! And I’m not talking about inside of the casino cause that’s allowed so it’s expected . We’re talking about smoke-free public area , hotel lobby , elevators etc . It’s horrible . The Hollywood hotel rooms are very outdated . AC is not working, carpet is old and moist , bathroom is the old shower-tub with curtain situation . Room smelled like pot. No sound proof so expect to hear drunk yelling after 11pm . We stayed one night and couldn’t take it anymore so switched to the guitar hotel , it’s much pricier but worth it . The whole hotel management system is not efficient . We had some issues with the room switching and stuff left behind , and it took quite a hassle to get our stuff back . Looks like the housekeeping department and the front desk don’t have a good communication channel. Nobody knows anything .. I will say Sabastian from front desk is the only staff who was being helpful and prompt during our whole stay . Overall not very impressed and probably won’t go back again .

What a shame that the housekeeping department can bring down my whole rating of this hotel. There were food crumbs from a prior guest's cookies, unwiped table, hair and debris on the floor due to the lack of proper vacuuming and extensive mildew in the shower. At the premium rate I paid for this hotel I am very dissatisfied with the lack of cleanliness. I spoke with Andrew to rectify the situation and all they did was make the bed. They never vacuumed or sprayed the mildew. Disgusting and disgusted!

Unfortunately people can smoke almost everywhere in the hotel so it’s not pleasant for non smokers. The staff at the bar and grill at the pool were very rude and difficult. The rooms were very big and beautiful but our sheets were ripped upon arrival, we called to have them replace the sheets and they would send somebody but nobody came. We also asked to change the sheets the next day when the roomservice came by, they just made the bed with the same sheets again.

Check in took a while because we didnt have a membership and people with memberships get to cut your line. Tha AC did not get very cold, someone was singing happy birthday in the hall (I think staff at the housekeeping room across from ours) at 8AM. The room was really nice as well as the pool.

Room was nice. Check in was easy and accommodated us with room closed to elevator. The bed was comfy, but the pillows were too bulky/hard. Had a very large shower with 3 choice of sprays. LOVED low night light feature that would come on automatically when making trips to the bathroom in middle of night. Wished other hotels had this! Pretty view of pool and very nice area. Plenty of shelving and drawers for storage, ironing board/iron and safe in closet. Plan on doing some walking though! Main casino covers large area and your favorite machine may be in on the other end, as well as food court. There is a nice variety of gaming machines and table games. Really enjoyed our stay and looking forward to a return trip.

Stayed here a couple of days before a cruise out of Miami. The hotel is simply wonderful! The room isn't very family friendly though, as there is no door to the restroom and the panels behind the sink can slide open to view from inside the room. Other than We enjoyed breakfast every morning at Rise and loved the food court options.

Nice place but terrible customer service. And very expensive. I arrived with my mom and they had no wheelchair available. They said the only three they had were already reserved. I had to pay $100 for a scooter. Check in was too far from the valet right now and took way too long. Rollaway bed took about three hours to be delivered. Room service to two hours and was 100 bucks for a Caesar salad and french fries.

This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had, both personally and for members of my team. We stayed for a company event, and from the moment I arrived, the level of customer service was unacceptable. Staff made it clear that basic inquiries were an inconvenience, and requests were often ignored or not fulfilled. Operations were disorganized across the board, from valet services to bellman assistance. Overall, an extremely disappointing stay.

The property is average if you compare it to Vegas hotels. The staff was poor. We booked 2 rooms and we went top check in at 4pm. We were told we had to wait to get rooms together as 1 on the 4th floor was ready but the room next to on the same floor was not. I was not feeling well so i took the room that was ready and went to rest. We kept calling about the other room and they kept saying it was not ready. We spoke to the staff cleaning the rooms who stated the room we were getting was cleaned already nd just waiting inspection. Despite u calling every 15 minutes we did not get our 2nd room until after 7pm and the staff later found out that the room inspection took place before we even arrived. We were told at heck in that the show for the lights was at 9pm and again at 930. 1 of our guests staying with us was there for only 1 night nd wanted to see the show. We went at 920 to see the 930 show only to be told that on Sundays there is only 1 show at 9pm. Why would they tell is 2 shows and there only be 1. The staff does not know what is happening it seems. My friend missed the show. The rooms are hugely overpriced and definitely not value for money. The food in the restaurants are average. Not a great experience by any means.

Called down for extra towels bec only 2 sets were in the room. We had 4 people in room. Took and hour and half to get towels. We had dinner reservations at 645pm luckily I was able to bump reservations to 715pm. Still didn’t have towels to shower before dinner. So 2 people used the big towels, one person used the hand towels and one person used the robe to dry off! I did call down to for towels again after an hr they were not there. They did acknowledge it’s taken too long. After that still took another 30 min to get the towels..but too late we had to make do w/what we had. In general…everything takes forever at this hotel. Dinner..drinks..getting rooms ready..checking in..

I recently stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and I can’t stop raving about the experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff and bellmen were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to make our stay unforgettable. They went above and beyond by upgrading us to an absolutely incredible suite, and let me tell you, it was a game-changer! The suite itself was pure luxury, a perfect blend of rock-star vibe and modern comfort. The room was spacious, impeccably designed, and had that signature Hard Rock flair with stylish decor and top-notch amenities. The shower was a dream—think rainfall perfection—and the separate dressing area added such a thoughtful touch of convenience. But the real showstopper? The bathtub. It was massive, relaxing, and honestly made me never want to leave. Every detail of the room screamed quality, from the plush bedding to the stunning views. The entire experience was elevated by the outstanding service. The staff anticipated our every need, and the bellmen were quick, courteous, and made checking in and out a breeze. Whether you’re there for the casino, the vibe, or just to soak in the luxury, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino delivers on every level. I’m already counting down the days until I can return to this rock-and-roll paradise! Highly recommend!

We were celebrating my dad’s 84th birthday. Everything was perfect. The pools were gorgeous, the pool side restaurant was good. The room was huge and clean and spacious. The steak house was hands down the best food I have ever had in my life truly worth every penny. The steak was life changing and the potato au gratin made me want to kiss everyone in the restaurant. Not only was the food phenomenal, the staff was lovely and made every second magical.

It would be great if some information about the calendar events that are scheduled during your stay. Missed out on a pool party because unaware tickets needed to be purchased and it sold out. Heads up on making reservations at the restaurants would have been good to know as the waits for non reservations was over 3 hours. Never visited the property so a little more information provided during check in would have been greatly appreciated

Everything great except cocktail servers never came around while we were gambling. Like for hours, eventhough the dealers would ask them to come back. Also, breakfast place called Rise had terrible service. Hardly ever saw waiter. My food came out completely wrong and it took another 25 minutes to get meal replaced with correct order.. No apology or comp or anything. But Irwin was the sweetest man ever and helped us more than our own waiter.
