Next time I'll know to upgrade to the Luxury King Suite in the West Tower, which ranges from $499-849 and includes a bathtub with jets, floor-to-ceiling windows, and contemporary, custom-crafted furniture that likely feels more worth the inflated price. But even though I live in Miami and registered for the account, I wound up shelling out, with taxes and fees, $685.85 for a room overlooking the parking lot. And that's without the upgraded pool view.īeing a Florida resident and signing up for a Wild Card can help reduce costs as well. On coveted peak nights, these standard rooms run between $599 (West Tower) to $619 (East Tower). I booked a standard Deluxe King in the East Tower, which typically starts at $269 and drops to $219 in the summer. I decided to go and check out all these numbers - and play a few of my own, because I'm something of a blackjack addict.

Finally, 600 parking spots were tacked onto the 6,000 that already await wheels. Six shops and a 200-seat Italian restaurant, gelateria/coffee shop, and wine cellar were also added, as well as three enticing pools and a 120-seat pool bar and grill. The new enhancements include a 15-story, 564-room East Tower, which brings the lodgings to a total of 800 rooms and suites, as well as a 25,000 square-foot Rock Spa & Salon, and a 30,000 square-foot Seminole Hard Rock Event Center.

It debuted in 2004 but has undergone a glitzy $700 million expansion that was completed in fall 2019. Founded on nine acres of land, it sits relatively isolated, with only the Florida State Fairgrounds and its MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre nearby for competition.īut the self-contained complex doesn't really need any company. Located just off I-4 on the Tampa Reservation - one of the six governed by the Seminole Tribe of Florida - the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa is a massive compound.
