Lisa Vanderpump is leveling up her Las Vegas empire. The entrepreneur, restaurateur, and reality television icon is set to take over The Cromwell — a boutique hotel perched on the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road — and transform it into a property that fully embodies her brand: The Vanderpump Hotel.
A Hospitality Power Move
In a bold expansion of her footprint in Vegas, Vanderpump is partnering with Caesars Entertainment to overhaul The Cromwell into a luxury destination with her signature flair. The newly imagined hotel is slated to open in early 2026, delivering what Caesars calls “sexy elegance and comfort” to the heart of the Strip.
From Cocktails to Keys
Though this marks Vanderpump’s first hotel venture, her history in hospitality is extensive. Alongside her husband Ken Todd, she has created a successful portfolio of restaurants and bars over the decades — and already has three high-performing venues in Vegas through her partnership with Caesars Entertainment.
“We’ve had a phenomenal partnership with Lisa,” 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.”
What to Expect at The Vanderpump Hotel
The rebranded property will remain operational during its transition, but guests can look forward to some major enhancements:
- An upgraded hotel reception and front desk area
- A brand-new lounge crafted in Vanderpump’s signature style
- Redesigned guest rooms and suites
- A refreshed casino floor with a new ambiance
The project promises to retain The Cromwell’s boutique charm while adding a healthy dose of glamour — a hallmark of Vanderpump’s aesthetic sensibility.
What Happens to Current Attractions?
The Cromwell currently boasts a variety of popular spots including GIADA by Giada De Laurentiis, Bound bar, Interlude casino lounge, Drai’s Beachclub and Nightclub, and a Caesars Sportsbook. Caesars has yet to confirm if or how these venues will be altered, but said additional updates will be announced as the project evolves.
From Reality TV to Real Estate
Lisa Vanderpump is no stranger to the spotlight. Known for her starring roles in “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” and the spinoff series “Vanderpump Rules,” she has translated her television fame into a powerful lifestyle brand. With this hotel, she enters a new phase — one where her influence extends from the bar to the bedroom, and from reality TV to real estate.
Expect The Vanderpump Hotel to be more than just a place to stay — it will likely become a fully immersive experience, tailored for fans and luxury travelers alike. As Vegas continues to evolve, Vanderpump’s latest endeavor may well become its most talked-about address.
