Located in the historic Gaslamp Quarter, at the epicenter of San Diego nightlife, the new Hard Rock Hotel San Diego has taken shape and is turning up the volume. Hard Rock Hotel San Diego boasts an upscale, contemporary design, signature restaurants, a sophisticated nightlife, superior customer service and, of course, the distinctive thread running through all Hard Rock properties: rock 'n' roll. It's where rock star service meets urban chic design with every amenity — the perfect antidote to the plain vanilla hotel experience — from world-famous Nobu restaurant to ultra-hip bars Sweetwater Saloon and Moonstone Lounge to signature treatments at Rock Spa. Additional features include Maryjane's Coffee Shop, a landscaped rooftop pool deck with private cabanas, a Rock Shop and a Pinkberry yogurt store. With 420 amazing guestrooms, including 176 suites — one designed by the Black Eyed Peas — Hard Rock Hotel San Diego is the ultimate destination for a one-of-a-kind hotel experience in a city and setting unlike any other.
