The Vanderpump Hotel Las Vegas: Inside the Cromwell’s Luxury Rebrand

The Cromwell is gone. In its place, on the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road, sits The Vanderpump Hotel Las Vegas, which opened on May 26, 2026 as a 188-room boutique property from Caesars Entertainment and restaurateur Lisa Vanderpump. It is the most intimate standalone hotel on the Strip and instantly one of the most talked-about, trading the Cromwell’s clubby identity for a design-forward, personality-driven stay. Below is what actually changed, what stayed, and how to book it the right way.

What Is the Vanderpump Hotel Las Vegas?

The Vanderpump Hotel is the full rebrand of The Cromwell, the boutique hotel-casino that had operated since 2014 at the center of the Strip. Caesars Entertainment partnered with Lisa Vanderpump, the restaurateur and television personality, on what is her first hotel venture. The casino, sportsbook, and marquee dining stayed open through the transformation, and the redesigned guest rooms reopened in late May 2026 under the new name.

Here are the key details at a glance:

• Opened: May 26, 2026, on the Las Vegas Strip.
• Location: 3595 Las Vegas Blvd S, at the corner of Flamingo Road, directly across from Caesars Palace and steps from the Bellagio fountains.
• Owner and operator: Caesars Entertainment, in partnership with Lisa Vanderpump.
• Size: 188 rooms and suites, the smallest footprint of any hotel on the Strip.
• Rewards: part of the Caesars Rewards network.

For a city built on scale, that intimacy is the entire point. The Vanderpump Hotel is positioned as a curated boutique escape rather than a sprawling mega-resort, which is exactly why it stands out on this stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard.

Inside the Rooms and the Design

All 188 rooms and suites were reimagined by Lisa Vanderpump and her business partner, designer Nick Alain, through their Vanderpump Alain design line. The aesthetic is described as “industrial romantic,” leaning on moss-green and dusty-lilac tones, mixed warm-gold and cool-silver metals, and soft, tactile textures. Custom furnishings and lighting were created specifically for the property, so the look does not repeat elsewhere on the Strip.

Vanderpump has said her goal was comfort over spectacle. “Our vision was to create a room that feels like a true retreat,” she noted of the redesign, adding that she hand-selected in-room amenities for guests. The result is a stay that reads as residential and personal, a deliberate contrast to the high-volume resort rooms surrounding it.

Dining, Drai’s, and the Rooftop

The rebrand kept the venues that made the Cromwell a destination and layered new ones on top. Giada, Giada De Laurentiis’s flagship Italian restaurant overlooking the Strip, remained open throughout.

The nightlife that anchored the building is still here:

• Soleia: the rooftop daytime pool scene with skyline views, still one of the best table nights in the city.
• Drai’s After Hours: the late-night subterranean club for when everything else closes.
• Interlude and the Caesars Sportsbook: the casino-floor lounge and book carried over from the Cromwell era.

If your day centers on the rooftop, securing a table in advance matters. Our Las Vegas bottle service guide breaks down how table pricing and minimums work at clubs like Drai’s so you are not negotiating at the door.

How to Book the Vanderpump Hotel Like a VIP

Rooms are bookable now through the Caesars Rewards network, but the boutique room count means the best rates and suites move fast on event weekends. Booking through a concierge is the difference between a standard reservation and a stay that is handled end to end.

Through Red Carpet VIP, guests typically save 10 to 40 percent per night on Strip hotels, split payments across a group online, and skip the lines that come with a walk-up arrival. Reserve your stay on our Vanderpump Hotel booking page, compare it against other properties on our Las Vegas hotels hub, or let our team build the full trip through VIP concierge services, from the room to the rooftop table.
