Virgin Hotels Las Vegas

Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, Curio Collection by Hilton is a casino hotel resort in Paradise, Nevada, east of the Las Vegas Strip. The hotel, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton, includes 1,504 rooms. The casino is 60,000 sq ft (5, 600 m2) and was originally operated by a subsidiary of the Mohegan Tribe, making it the first Native American tribe to operate a Las Vegas casino. The resort also includes music venue The Theater at Virgin Hotels. Virgin Hotels Las Vegas previously operated as the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, which opened in 1995. Virgin Hotels and a group of investment companies purchased the Hard Rock in March 2018, for $500 million. Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Group, had wanted to enter the Las Vegas casino industry for more than 20 years. The Hard Rock closed on February 3, 2020, to allow for a $200 million renovation. The resort reopened under the new Virgin Hotels Las Vegas branding on March 25, 2021, after being delayed more than four months due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Nevada. The casino struggled under Mohegan, which exited the property in early 2025, with management transferring to Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.
