Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino

The Seminole Indians have created a miniature Vegas within Hollywood, Florida, and it's doing a booming business, especially after the massive, 130,000-square-foot casino added blackjack in addition to thousands of Vegas-style slot machines, baccarat, and all kinds of poker tables that are always packed. The main draw here is the casino, but the guest rooms are surprisingly cushy and swank, with flatscreen TVs, Egyptian-cotton linens, and big bathrooms with massive shower heads; the suites are hyperluxurious. Equally impressive is the 4 1/2-acre lagoon-style pool that's very similar to the one at the Hard Rock in Vegas, with waterfalls, hot tubs, wireless Internet access, and, of course, a bar. There are lots of bars here, especially at the attached entertainment complex, with two clubs open 24/7, as well as restaurants and stores. There's also a food court, or you can choose from several on-site, full-service restaurants, including a swanky steakhouse, Gloria and Emilio Estefan's Bongos Cuban Café, and a branch of Fort Lauderdale's disco-licious Italian hot spot, Café Martorano . If all this action has you feeling wiped out, there's always the spa, which, in Seminole Hard Rock fashion, is also pretty sizeable.

Anna Nicole & "Room 607" -- Anna Nicole Smith died tragically in Room 607 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel on February 8, 2007. Because the hotel didn't want to create a macabre tourist attraction, they took the room number "out of inventory," meaning the room is still there, but the number has been changed.

Facilities:
