Las Vegas, in general, is an attractive location for young adults given what the city has to offer. There are plenty of hotels here that are perfect for 20 somethings, but we feel that the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino is one of the best. The property was constructed in 1995, and then in 2010 a $750 million dollar expansion was added so it feels very new. The hotel has all the offerings that anyone, especially young adults, could ask for. The hotel part offers luxury rooms that range in size from one-bedroom guest rooms to massive penthouse suites.
