Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa

We enjoy coming to this casino several times a year. There are quite a few slot machines here and in one area there are the Vegas style tables. They do have a smoking session, albeit relatively small. There is plenty of free parking as well, which can get packed, but we usually have no issues in finding a spot on the upper floors. My only disappointment is that we would like to stay a nigh at the hotel here, getting in some gambling, along with spending sometime at the bars, however the prices are rather outrageous for a staycation.

(From August 2024)Review is for the event center primarily.I had tickets to see 311/AWOLNATION/Neon Trees on Sunday in mid-August. It's got plenty of seating behind with a spacious floor for good viewing. While I prefer being on the floor for the best views, you'll get a good view from the seats based on how the seating is structured. I found the sound quality to be solid; fortunately no issues with equipment or sound check.The merchandise vendors are set up outside the room area with several drink options and restrooms. Quite organized and with it being indoors, you can enjoy the air conditioning.Not much of a gambler but the casino itself is tempting with plenty of slots and tables along with retail stores and restaurants. You also get a free t-shirt for signing up for the play card. HArd to beat that right!?

I always have fun at Tampa's Seminole Hard Rock. This hotel and casino offers top notch entertainment. Gambling, sports betting, shopping, concerts, pool days, fine dining, and four diamond rated hotel -something for everyone!One of my favorite local concert venues because it offers ample parking, amazing pre-gaming options, and an intimate concert venue. Perfect indoor space during hot summer months, unlike the amphitheater across the street. Hotel rooms are sleek and modern. The patio features 3 pools (private, adult only, family), and staff is great about keeping children out of the adult pool. Outdoor bar and restaurant hits the spot. I am always down for the habanero mango chicken wings, and a gluten-free wrapped cheeseburger. Live music at the pool always enhances the vibe. The casino is huge! Slots on slots on slots. Spacious and kept clean. FYI: nonsmoking casino is upstairs. Bartenders and servers have been impeccable every visit.

I am not a big gambler but my friend loves the casinos. We visited the hard rock casino twice during our stay in Tampa. I was not use to paying for drinks on the floor while gambling. I was not happy about it! I did purchase two drinks.

I loved how spacious my room was but it reeked of chlorine when I walked into the room. It must of been the cleaning supplies. It wasn't very pleasant to be in the room smelling the chlorine. I was annoyed that there was a glitch in the system resulting in my credit card to be charged multiple times for no reason. I was told that I had to go to the front desk to resolve this situation. Tables here have very high minimums, but I did like the fact that they had a dedicated non-smoking floor.There were lots of restaurants on the property, but it was annoying that I encountered a wait for these restaurants except The Rez which ended up being my favorite.Also, they apparently don't clean rooms here unless you specifically schedule a cleaning. I found that to be funny especially when there is a button at my door to request housekeeping.

I mean the property is amazing . Rooms are beautiful, getting bigger and better every year . Wish the rooms were cheaper and did better comps w your rewards cards . They are the tightest w there money out of all of the hardrock I've ever been too. But other than that it's a vibe . Need more ultra lounges would be nice on each side of casino and floors ..w different music in each one .

I'm laughing that Hard Rock is rated so low: I'd be willing to bet that most of these reviews were submitted by visitors who ended up losing in the casino :)Hard Rock Tampa is beautiful. This is an adult gaming complex, and has grown exponentially since it first opened years ago. It is spacious, offers up some great dining and shopping experiences, and is very well-kept and clean. It is a getaway oasis that gladly meets you at the end of i4 just at the beginning of Tampa.I myself lost in casino last night, but will remain objective for this review. Game responsibly and set forth your financial limit BEFORE you step foot on the floor here because you don't want to be betting on emotion.Oh and they definitely had enough space for parking... you just have to be willing to park a little further away as it gets later and busier into the night.Good luck!!!

This is a place to stay that adds to your vacation. You don't have to leave the building but if you do your surrounded by beautiful Tampa and lots to do. The hotel offers east and west wings which circle around a three pool playground with bars and a large eatery. Various sitting areas for taking in the sun or maybe catching some music on the live stage before the pool closes at sunset.The rooms offer an intimate elegance and simplicity. The beds are very comfortable with lots of fluffy pillows. Rooms are quiet and well sized. The security is top notch, and cleaning service is happy to accommodate. Their unity casino card program is highly rewarding and allows you to earn food, drinks and more. Lots to do here but winning is #1.

I've never in my life encountered worse craps dealers than at this casino. And I'm not alone--many other players say the same. Maybe because this is the only casino in Florida, the dealers think they can treat players poorly.Many of them have nasty attitudes, and some even ask players for tips. For example, I saw a player throw $30 on a horn bet, and the dealer on the stick immediately said it was a two-way bet without confirmation--doing this multiple times. That kind of behavior is unacceptable. Tips are not an entitlement; they have to be earned.I'm a generous tipper when I'm winning, and some dealers recognize that and treat me well. But others couldn't care less. It honestly makes me question whether I should tip at all. The dealers here need serious customer service training.And if you play here, avoid any table where pit boss Johnny is working--his attitude is just as bad as some of the dealers. There are others like him, and I'll name them later.This casino needs to do better.

This is by far the worst casino we have ever been in.1) The smoke is so heavy your eyes burn & my wife has asthma. 2) The music is so loud everywhere in the casino, you can't hear yourself think. 3) My wife's Mimosa, cost $144) We won there money and they will never get it back. I am a Veteran and the Casinos that respect Veterans are in Michigan, the Soaring Eagle & Firekeepers. One point of interest, l went to the Roulette table, they had no Dollar chips, they want you to use $5 chips, the minimum play is $5, so there strategy is to rip you off. Note: Go at your risk
