San Diego's rockin' hard these days with the opening this month of the Hard Rock Hotel, above, in the Gaslamp Quarter. The 12-story property has 420 guest rooms, a rooftop pool and, for dining and snacking, a Nobu restaurant and a Pinkberry yogurt outlet.

Rooms are mod, with halo-lighted beds and other electronic amenities. The hotel is near Petco Park and across from the San Diego Convention Center. Room rates run from $295 for studios to $5,000 for the rock-star suites. Info: (866) 751-7625, www.hardrockhotelsd.com.
