Where: Penang, Malaysia

If you want to be hip in Malaysia, wait until 2008 when the country's first Hard Rock Hotel will open. The Hard Rock will arise from a transformation of the old Casuarina Beach Resort at Batu Ferringhi in Penang, which closed in December. Hard Rock Malaysia will have 255 rooms and promises to be totally "hip and modern", they say. Just see the blurb from the Hard Rock gang about their hotels in general:

Still staying in the same tired hotels year after year? Ready to live like a rock star instead? Then we've got the Hotel for you! Whether traveling in the US or abroad, Hard Rock Hotels offer you a hip, contemporary attitude in an atmosphere of pure, unadulterated rock n' roll. Why stay anywhere else?

Indeed. These unadulterated rock'n'roll hotels are going through some changes, to say the least, but they still view themselves as a pretty exclusive bunch. There are just eight such hotels around the world (including two others in Asia, in Bali and Pattaya, Thailand), with two more ready to open sometime this year.
