Exterior of pool at the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas.Quite possibly one of the hottest hotels in Vegas, the Hard Rock Hotel has something for everybody when it comes to music.

From lighting fixtures made from cymbals to door handles shaped as Fender guitars, there are reminders of what rock is all about. The entire hotel serves as a museum dedicated to rock legends.

Motorcycles that one belonged to rockers Nikki Sixx and Matt Sorum guard the entry way to the casino while autographed guitars, costumes and articles of clothing from artists such as Madonna, Aerosmith, U2 and the Ramones are all encased in glass for your viewing pleasure.

This hotel isn't just all about sightseeing and memorabilia, though. The Center Bar is a haven for the beautiful, so if you think you qualify then belly on up to the bar. Body English is the hotel's nightclub and gives the chance to dance the night away. If all the rock mementos have you jonesing to check out a live act then head on over to The Joint where you can check out acts such as Ozzy Osbourne, The Rolling Stones, Green Day and Sting.

Tired of constantly being elbowed while you sit at a blackjack table filled with sweaty guys that look like they are rejects from The Sopranos? No problem, head out to the pool area where you can enjoy the tropical landscape, beautiful sights, sandy beaches and a swim up blackjack table. Just be sure you have something to keep your chips in.

No hotel would be complete without gourmet dinning and the Hard Rock has got you covered. You can take your pick from dinning at the posh and elegant Simon Kitchen & Bar, to the get it and go taste of Mr. Lucky's 24/7 and The Pink Taco, or you can sit down and get a taste of classic Vegas as you dine at AJ's Steakhouse.

Much like Sin City, the Hard Rock is an original that has to be experienced firsthand to be believed.
