Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino

This may be one of the last bastions for smokers who miss the days of lighting up whereever and whenever they wanted... I would recommend that the casino spend some of the earnings from myself and others and invest in a new ventilation system, cause the cigarette/cigar smoke here is horrendous.  I've been to Vegas and Atlantic City before and no where is the smoke this bad....

Besides the smoke, it is nice for Tampa to have such a nice entertainment complex with plenty of bars and restaurants along with a very cool hotel.  I liked that they expanded the gaming options, have plenty of food options, a dedicated poker room, and plenty of parking.  Most of the casino floor, like most other casinos is full of slot machines and other gaming machines.  There aren't that many table games but probably just enough as they're usually completely full.  

I've had dinner at the buffet (Fresh Harvest) and the sushi place (Rock N' Raw Bar), both places offer an enjoyable "less smokey" area and a great selection of food all reasonably priced and pretty good... Really besides the cigarette and cigar smoke, I'd probably come here more often...

Had a fabulous stay here!!! Stayed here twice in the king spa suite, and there was a spa tub in the middle of the room! The bed was super comfy, and everything about the room was great.  Awesome room service, and so much to do in the hotel.  The Fresh Harvest is a must try as well.

This is a really nice entertainment complex.

They have probably 6 or more different restaurants - Asian, upscale, food court, hard rock cafe, and a few more.

We had dinner in the Hard Rock cafe one.  Very nice looking restaurant inside.  Later a live band got up and played a bunch of summery songs (Bryan Adams).

The food was just what you'd expect from a Hard Rock cafe - perhaps slightly better flavor and quality.

We had a great time and would go again if in the area.
