Yes, we went to the Guitar Hotel aka the Hard Rock!!!

The hospitality shown to PBSC TRIO EOC at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino was second to none!

They provided an excellent tour of the front and back of house, a fantastic presentation, and a complimentary breakfast and lunch!

With tourism being a humongous driving factor in the Florida economy it was important to us that participants learn about the opportunities available to them in hospitality that are outside their preconceived notions.

We were able to explore different aspects of the Hard Rock and it was awe-inspiring but the most valuable thing was the information the students and TRIO staff received and the connections made!

TRIO EOC participants are often adults looking for ways to make money and go back to school. The Hard Rock offers tuition reimbursement and excellent benefits for its team members that participants can take advantage of. The hotel being open 24/7 is a huge plus for participants!

Don't miss out on our next trip!
