OVERNIGHT SENSATION
Hard Rock Hotel Sioux City is the area’s only AAA Four Diamond rated hotel, a distinction achieved by only five percent of the more than 28,000 properties reviewed by AAA. Perfectly incorporated into the 112 year-old historic Battery Building in downtown Sioux City, Hard Rock Hotel provides its guests with an unparalleled stay. For a building whose original construction was never intended for the public eye, the historic Battery Building has some truly amazing architectural elements. The 54 rooms and suites each have their own unique shape and layout thanks to the historic nature of the building. Preserved brick and exposed wood beams complement the modern luxuries and rock and roll décor in each room, creating a unique aesthetic unlike any hotel in the region.
Celebrating the Romanesque structure of the building, these unique elements were not only preserved, but also highlighted in the construction and development of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sioux City. Plus, as an added bonus, guests of the hotel enjoy a complimentary drink upon check-in at the three-story Lobby Bar, what was once a drop-off station for trains unloading cargo and picking up goods for market.
