Hard Rock International Announces $850 Million Hotel And Casino In San Juan
Hard Rock International announces today it is partnering with Misla Hospitality, Stonecrest Investment Management, and The Interfin Companies to develop the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino San Juan. The $850 million new-build project is slated to open in 2029, with construction commencing mid-2026.
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s first Puerto Rico destination and residence project will honor the rich soul and rhythm of San Juan, while striking a bold new chord for the future. Designed by Klai Juba Wald and CMA Architects, the space will be inspired by the island’s cultural and musical heritage, integrating beautiful work from community artists. The San Juan resort will join the company’s prestigious global hotels portfolio, bringing world-class entertainment and one-of-a-kind amenities to modern travelers who seek a reprieve from traditional, predictable hospitality experiences.
Governor of Puerto Rico, Jenniffer González-Colón, said: “The launch in San Juan of the first hotel, casino, and residential complex by the prestigious firm Hard Rock International, with construction set to begin mid-year, opens a world of possibilities for economic development. This significant $850 million investment, in addition to generating jobs and becoming another attraction for the island, helps continue positioning Puerto Rico as an ideal destination in the Caribbean — a destination for tourism, living, and global investment.”
Offering views of both San Juan Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, Hard Rock Hotel & Casino San Juan will feature approximately 415 rooms, 58 suites, and 186 Branded Residences. The property will amplify the island’s music culture by introducing event venues, a recording studio, and local memorabilia. It will be the first integrated casino in Puerto Rico for a complete travel-entertainment experience.
“Music is at the heart of both Hard Rock and Puerto Rico, making this a perfect union,” said Jeff Hook, Chief Operating Officer at Hard Rock International. “San Juan is a natural extension of our portfolio, creating a seamless Hard Rock experience for guests traveling between our international properties. We’re honored to create a destination that celebrates Puerto Rico’s rich music and arts scene, and we look forward to welcoming visitors and locals alike to experience the island’s dynamic cultural landscape.”
Guests will enjoy diverse dining experiences spanning from casual poolside fare to upscale cuisine and multiple bars throughout the property. When they are not exploring the historical landmarks and vibrant streets of San Juan, guests will relax and recharge at the signature Rock Spa®, fitness center, and three terrace-level pools. Appealing to all generations, young visitors will enjoy dedicated amenities including a kids’ club, kids’ arcade, and curated teen hangout spaces.
“Drawing from five decades of global development experience, and shaped by my own upbringing in Italy surrounded by history and architecture, we are proud to partner with Hard Rock on this transformative project for San Juan,” said Giorgio Borlenghi, Chairman of The Interfin Companies, the development team. “Working closely with trusted local partners, artists, and community leaders, we have approached this development with a strong focus on cultural preservation, environmental responsibility, and community engagement. Our intent is to deliver a world-class destination that reflects Puerto Rico’s heritage while generating lasting economic and social value.”
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino San Juan is expected to deliver significant economic impact, including over 2,500 direct construction jobs and 1,250 permanent team member opportunities once opened. Hard Rock is committed to maximizing local benefit through strategic partnerships focused on community empowerment, economic opportunity, and supporting initiatives that showcase Puerto Rico’s rich culture.
“We welcome Hard Rock International’s first hotel project in Puerto Rico as a significant milestone for our tourism industry, strengthening our lodging portfolio through the addition of new hotel room inventory, supporting job creation, and enhancing the island’s visitor experience while elevating a strategically located area near the cruise ports and historic Old San Juan, and supporting the island’s long-term destination growth,” said Willianette Robles Cancel, Executive Director of the Puerto Rico Tourism Company.
Jorge L. Pérez, President and CEO of Discover Puerto Rico, noted: “This is an ambitious project that expands Puerto Rico’s hotel capacity in one of the island’s most iconic and attractive areas. The initiative strengthens the destination’s tourism offering in a comprehensive way by complementing the cruise segment, expanding the culinary scene, and enhancing our ability to attract international-caliber events and conventions. At Discover Puerto Rico, we welcome the opportunities this development represents for the island’s sustainable economic growth, and we congratulate the teams at Hard Rock International, Misla Hospitality, Stonecrest Investment Management, and The Interfin Companies on this strategic alliance that drives investment, creates quality jobs, and continues to position Puerto Rico as a globally competitive destination.”
The property is easily accessible from nearby Luis Muñoz MarÃn International Airport and is adjacent to Old San Juan, a historic city that enchants visitors with its Spanish colonial architecture, colorful streets, historic museums, galleries, and fortresses overlooking the sea.
Stefano Attuario Releases Conceptual Album ‘Babele’ Exploring Inner Chaos And Redemption
Italian singer-songwriter Stefano Attuario releases ‘Babele’, a conceptual album exploring inner chaos, emotional fragility and the human search for redemption. Produced by Max Zanotti of The Elephant Man, Deasonika and Casablanca, the record represents a decisive step forward in Attuario’s artistic evolution following singles “Insetti,” “Amen” and “Arianna.” The album unfolds as a mosaic of voices, images and sensations where disorder becomes meaning and dissonance reveals unexpected beauty. Abandoning rigid genre boundaries, ‘Babele’ merges rock, darkwave and poetic songwriting into a cinematic sonic landscape where acoustic instruments and synthesizers coexist in a constant play of light and shadow. “Babel represents my personal chaos, a state of confusion and disorder of words, gestures, images, and thoughts accumulated in my mind, crying out for freedom in written and musical form,” Attuario explains. “In this album, I found order in the chaos, a beauty hidden in dissonance, where each fragment finds its place in a larger picture. I didn’t think about style or genre; I wrote what I wanted, the way I wanted.”
Drawing inspiration from diverse artistic sources including Goya’s paintings, Gabriele Basilico’s photographs, poetry by Montale and Merini, and writings by William Seward Burroughs and Bukowski, Attuario created a record that complements his debut ‘Nemesi’. Producer Max Zanotti, with his underground indie background, proved crucial to achieving the album’s restless, aggressive sound. “During the studio sessions, discussing the lyrics and the concept for the album and the cover, we realized we had to be bold and not be afraid to tackle complex subjects and use expressive language,” Attuario says. Music videos for “Insetti” and “Amen” were directed by Amaro, with Davide Forleo directing “Arianna.” The project explores themes of poetry, rebellion, desperation and rebirth through a raw and authentic sound influenced by artists including Mark Lanegan, Nick Cave, Marlene Kuntz, Marilyn Manson and Afterhours.

George R. R. Martin Discusses Creating Dunk And Egg For HBO Series
George R. R. Martin met with James Hibberd of The Hollywood Reporter at Milk of the Poppy, Martin’s medieval apothecary bar in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where he shared how he was inspired to create the characters of Dunk and Egg for his Hedge Knight stories. The characters are being brought to life in the HBO series ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’. “I had the idea that I wanted to write a prequel, so I would set it before ‘Game of Thrones’ started. And I wanted to write it about a tournament. I’ll set this entire one around a tournament,” Martin said. “One thing or another, Dunk and Egg came from somewhere. I had to figure out who starred in this. This story and the characters Dunk and Egg really came alive on me.”
