US: Hard Rock International has unveiled plans for the launch and redevelopment of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City.
The former Taj Mahal building will undergo a $375 million renovation and will reopen in summer 2018. The upcoming Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City is situated on 17-acres of prime Boardwalk real estate, offering views of the city and Atlantic Ocean.
The partnership between Hard Rock International and the Morris and Jingoli families will create more than 1,000 jobs during construction and 3,000 permanent jobs.
“From world-renowned music events to innovative dining concepts, we’re excited to bring the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino experience to the Atlantic City boardwalk – which has been home to our Hard Rock Cafe for more than 20 years,” said Jim Allen, chairman of Hard Rock International. “Our commitment to Atlantic City has never been stronger and we look forward to being a catalyst for further growth and development of the area.” Â
Upon arrival at the hotel, guests will enjoy a new check in experience and lobby lounge. Guestrooms and suites will undergo a complete renovation and redesign, and meeting space will be updated to accommodate both large conventions and smaller events.
Other features will include a full-service spa and The Sound of Your Stay music amenity program, which will offer complimentary in-room Fender guitar checkouts.
