Caesars Entertainment and Lisa Vanderpump are partnering once again, but this time, to bring a bold, new brand and an original concept to the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. The Cromwell, a standalone boutique hotel on the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road, will undergo a complete renovation and transition into a first-of-its-kind destination, The Vanderpump Hotel, early 2026.
“I am thrilled to once again be partnering with Caesars Entertainment, this time to venture into the hotel business,” said Lisa Vanderpump. “What an extraordinary opportunity to develop this iconic location into something unique, playful and upscale. Hospitality has always been our passion, and our mission is to create something sumptuous with a unique atmosphere. Our successful history has always been based on the individuality of the location. Through my design company, Vanderpump Alain, with my partner Nick Alain, we can’t wait to breathe new life into this property and make it something truly magical.”
The Vanderpump Hotel marks the television star and entrepreneur’s first foray into hotels and follows the success of her many ventures in wine, spirits and restaurants and lounges, including Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace, Vanderpump à Paris at Paris Las Vegas, WOLF by Vanderpump at Harveys Lake Tahoe and, most recently, Pinky’s by Vanderpump at Flamingo Las Vegas.
“We’ve had a phenomenal partnership with Lisa, developing three very successful restaurants in Las Vegas,” said Sean McBurney, Regional President of Caesars Entertainment. “Now we get to take Lisa’s vision and expertise to the next level – infusing her talent and creativity into an entire hotel at the most incredible location on the Las Vegas Strip. Nowhere else in the world can guests experience The Vanderpump Hotel, and we couldn’t be more proud to debut it.”
Vanderpump will bring her stunning aesthetic and distinctive design to enhance the hotel reception and front desk area, introduce an all-new lounge and redesign the 188 guest rooms and suites. The design will feature signature Vanderpump Alain furnishings and lighting fixtures and, as always with Vanderpump projects, everything will be bespoke and created specifically for the location. As a hotel, there will be an emphasis on sexy elegance and comfort, with gorgeous rooms and a fresh, new feel to the casino floor. Vanderpump will also hand-select the amenities for hotel guests.
“The Vanderpump Hotel represents the identity behind the name we know and respect – Lisa Vanderpump – whose strong, signature style and passion for hospitality are unmatched,” said Terrence O’Donnell, SVP and General Manager of the property. “We couldn’t be more excited to collaborate on this unique project that not only transforms our hotel but also changes the Las Vegas Strip.”
The property is currently home to Giada De Laurentiis’ namesake restaurant – GIADA, Bound lobby bar, Interlude casino lounge, Drai’s Beachclub and Nightclub, Drai’s After Hours and a Caesars Sportsbook.
Additional details on the hotel’s renovation will be announced as the project evolves. The Cromwell will continue to operate during its transformation to The Vanderpump Hotel, which is set to be complete by early 2026. For more information, guests can visit www.caesars.com/thevanderpumphotel.
