Hard Rock International is expanding across the pond. The Seminole Tribe-owned casino and hotel chain announced Tuesday that it will open a Hard Rock Hotel Dublin in 2020, its first hotel in Ireland. It will partner with Irish hotel company Tifco Limited. Hard Rock is based in Broward County.

"Dublin's vibrant cultural scene makes it one of the hottest European cities to visit, attracting over 5.5 million overseas visitors annually," Enda O'Meara, Tifco CEO, said in a release. "Hard Rock Hotel is an iconic, global brand that will be bringing something very different in its own distinctive style to this vibrant part of the capital city."

The Dublin hotel will have 120 guest bedrooms and suites and its restaurant will focus on "showcasing (the) freshest Irish ingredients."
