San Diego: Viva PB and Banana Sammies at The Hard Rock San Diego

Jennifer Kester — 2009-12-22T15:04:48-05:00

The Hard Rock San Diego will get all shook up and throw Elvis a birthday party January 8, which would have marked the King's 75th.

The daylong celebration will include free cake and an update on Elvis' favorite snack, the peanut butter and banana sandwich. Mini Hot Elvis sammies are made with a thick brioche bread smothered in butter, spread with peanut butter and banana slices, then griddled until melty. The minis will be free for hotel guests staying overnight January 8. But if you crave more, the hotel's Maryjane's restaurant will serve up full-size versions that come with fries for $4, which is half off the regular price.

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/32083/elvishotel.jpg" class="top"> Don't call the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Loews+Vanderbilt+Hotel/ian/122733">Loews Vanderbilt Nashville</a> the "Heartbreak Hotel." At least, don't plan on it unless you're booking their "Elvis in the Music City" package in celebration of The King himself. Elvis Presley's 75th birthday falls on January 8th of next year, and in honor of the music icon, the Nashville hotel has cobbled together a over-the-top package that's all glitz, glam, and calls to mind images of gold lame jumpsuits. Expect plenty of royal extravagances to be included, with a price to match: $3,975 for accommodations and a host of Elvis-themed activities. We're still "All Shook Up" after hearing the price, but if you're an Elvis-lover, this hotel news couldn't have come at a better

<![CDATA[ Cubicle Dreamin' is a feature in which we ask the hotel mavens to take some time out of their busy work day, surf the Internet, and tell us what hotel they wish they could beam themselves to right that very second--all on the slave driving companies dime, of course. Oh, like these people aren't surfing aimlessly anyway--at least now their purposeless clicking will be cobbled together into useful hotel stories--we hope.

We've been following the plans for a <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/8/10/132151/065/hotels/The_Riviera_Hotel_and_Casino_May_Turn_into_Elvis_Themed_Casino">Las Vegas Elvis-themed hotel</a> for a while now but TradeMork also speculates that a hotel could go up near Graceland in Memphis. While we don't doubt that will happen someday, we are guessing the Elvis Las Vegas is the actual hotel that will go up in Las
