HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (AP) It looks like a rock n roll guitar. But this one is 450 feet (137 meters) tall and is a light-beam hotel that the Seminole Tribe wants to become South Floridas latest tourist destination.

The Guitar Hotels grand opening is Thursday on the tribes land in Hollywood. Its the latest step in the Seminole Hard Rock empire, which includes naming rights on the Miami-area stadium where the 2020 Super Bowl will be played.

Its a unique addition to South Floridas tourist landscape and no hotel is like it in the world. It has more than 600 rooms and at night, beams of light will mimic the strings of the guitar.

The $1.5 billion project also has a refurbished venue for concerts and other events, starting with Maroon 5 on Friday.
