This is extremely exciting for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The music-influenced Hard Rock brand began in London in the 1980s with the Hard Rock Cafe on Park Lane, and it grew into an international brand with 253 properties.<\/p>\n<p>Along with the venue, the hotel houses RT60 rooftop bar and lounge on the 34th floor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause we were designing a brand-new building, we had the ability to create an amazing indoor-outdoor space with a canopy,\u201d said Allen. \u201cWe spent a lot of money on creating the DJ booth and the sound system to create an ultra lounge venue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also on site, NYY Steak continues Hard Rock\u2019s partnership with the New York Yankees, adding a third location \u2014 Yankee stadium and Coconut Creek, Florida, house one each \u2014 for steak and seafood, plus a switch from music memorabilia to sports.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitebedroomview.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Rooms start at $475 per night. \" class=\"wp-image-22026421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitebedroomview.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitebedroomview.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitebedroomview.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Rooms start at $475 per night. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Hard Rock Hotel New York<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitelivingroom.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"The sprawling hotel will feature a massive indoor\/outdoor space. \" class=\"wp-image-22026424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitelivingroom.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitelivingroom.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hrhny-rockstarsuitelivingroom.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>The sprawling hotel will feature a massive indoor-outdoor space. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Hard Rock Hotel New York<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The brand\u2019s signature breakfast-through-dinner Sessions restaurant and bar on the main level has a three-story atrium, open-air terrace and a grand staircase. Acoustic musical performances are planned there. Constant Grind, a cafe for tea, coffee, pastries and a casual bite, completes the food offerings.<\/p>\n<p>The eye-catching 36-story structure also goes down 80 feet below ground level.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s close to 40 feet ceiling height of usable space. It has a balcony; the whole thing is incredible,\u201d Allen added of the subterranean space, which houses the Venue. \u201cIt has an underground, speakeasy type of vibe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Guest rooms and suites feature a warm design, with caramel and royal blue highlights, and floor-to-ceiling windows. The Rock Star Suite on the 36th floor is a glam bi-level glass-enclosed penthouse with a 1,600-square-foot terrace and direct access to the rooftop bar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the highest-level suite,\u201d said Allen. \u201cIt is designed to also function as an event space for product launches and that type of thing.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Brand-wide bells and whistles include Crosley turntables and Fender guitars delivered upon request. But the Hard Rock heart is its notable music memorabilia, the largest private collection in the world, with about 86,000 pieces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Hard Rock of the \u201980s and \u201990s was more simplistic,\u201d said Allen. \u201cThey basically applied memorabilia to the walls. Now it is more a museum-quality presentation, with history and the story behind each piece and the artist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the Hard Rock Hotel New York, large-scale iconic images of Hendrix and Bowie line the walls, and New York\u2019s music scene is honored by touchstones such as Joey Ramone\u2019s leather jacket, Lady Gaga\u2019s silver patent leather boots and handwritten lyrics for John Lennon\u2019s 1972 ode to his adopted home, \u201cNew York City.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith New York\u2019s important place in musical history, we wanted to create something special,\u201d added Allen. \u201cWe always look at geographical location and the artists who worked in the area, and then layer in global acts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Allen thinks New Yorkers will enjoy the hotel, particularly the Venue, as much as hotel guests.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I walked into the Venue for the first time, it was still raw concrete at that point,\u201d he recalled, \u201cand I always say check your ego at the door, but I was highly confident that we had created a great venue. I just said, \u2018We got it!\u2019\u201d\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
