HARD ROCK MOVING INTO EUROPE

Hard Rock International reports that the Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza is expected to open in May 2014. Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza will represent the first Hard Rock Hotel to open in Europe. Palladium Hotel Group, pursuant to a license agreement from Hard Rock, will transform two former Fiesta Hotels, Club Don Toni and Hotel Don Toni, into the Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza, slated to feature the brand’s legendary music-inspired style. The two buildings will be united by a remodeled lobby and multi-purpose space, which will include various dining, shopping and entertainment outlets. True to its musical roots, the Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza will also offer live music and DJ performances for guests, a perfect synergy with Ibiza’s existing scene as a centre for electronic dance music and a hub for international artists. Offering more than 480 rooms, Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza will blend Mediterranean island inspiration with the Hard Rock energy throughout its 235 suites and amenities, such as the Rock Spa, Body Rock workout facility, meeting space, music memorabilia and Rock Shop featuring Hard Rock’s iconic merchandise. The hotel is also anticipated to include dining and entertainment, such as a lobby bar, kids club, teen venue and beach club. Guests can also enjoy the natural beauty of Ibiza with private swim-out pools for specialty suites, in addition to two pools enhanced with bars, private cabanas and poolside service. There will be entertainment by local and global icons for up to 2,500 guests to experience live at the main outdoor pool stage. In addition, pop culture fans will be treated to iconic music memorabilia lining hotel walls. (http://www.hardrockhotels.com)
