3, capping 25 years of rockin’ memories and making way for the newest Virgin Hotel. Virgin Hotels Las Vegas opened on March 25, 2021.Las Vegas’ Hard Rock Hotel & Casino will close its doors Feb. The Hard Rock closed on February 3, 2020, for renovations. Virgin Hotels and a group of investors purchased the Hard Rock in 2018 and announced plans to renovate and rebrand it as a Virgin hotel. Morgans ended its involvement with the resort in 2011, when it was sold to Brookfield Asset Management with Warner Gaming as the operator. The project added two additional hotel towers, as well as new restaurants and nightclubs. A $750 million renovation and expansion project began in 2007, and was completed three years later. Morgans Hotel Group and DLJ Merchant Banking Partners bought the resort in 2007, and Morgans handled operations. In 2004, Morton announced plans to add a $1 billion condo hotel, but this was canceled after he received purchase offers on the Hard Rock. The board alleged that the Hard Rock ads promoted casino cheating and drug use, and a battle ensued over the resort's free-speech rights. However, such advertising led to a complaint from the Nevada Gaming Control Board in 2004. The resort catered to a younger demographic, and it began using risqué advertising to compete against the Palms resort, which opened in 2001. The Hard Rock was also criticized for its advertising. In the 2000s, drugs and sexual conduct were common issues at the resort's nightclubs and pool area. It was also a frequent source of controversy and legal problems. The Hard Rock was featured in various media, including television shows and music videos. A new 11-story hotel tower was added in 1999, as part of a $100 million renovation.

Following disagreements, Morton bought out Harveys' share of the resort in 1997. The Hard Rock Hotel began as a joint venture between Hard Rock Cafe founder Peter Morton and Harveys. Plans for a Hard Rock hotel were announced in 1991, and the resort opened on March 10, 1995, as the world's first rock and roll-themed hotel.
