The Vanderpump Hotel

The Vanderpump Hotel is the Strip's newest boutique — the former Cromwell, reimagined by Caesars with restaurateur and television personality Lisa Vanderpump and reopened in June 2026. At just 188 rooms it's one of the smallest hotels on the Boulevard, and that's the appeal: it trades the sprawl of a mega-resort for a single, tightly styled address on arguably the best corner in town, at Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo, directly across from the Bellagio fountains.

The redesign is pure Vanderpump — an "industrial romantic" palette of moss green and dusty lilac, mixed gold-and-silver metals and reflective, glamorous furnishings that carry from the rooms into the lounges. Dining centers on GIADA, Giada De Laurentiis's upscale Italian room on the second floor with floor-to-ceiling views of the Strip and the fountains, backed by a Starbucks and Gigolo, a sultry cocktail lounge named for Lisa's late Pomeranian. Downstairs, a 40,000-square-foot casino runs 60 table games and around 450 slots. Up top, the rooftop is a destination in its own right: Drai's Beachclub by day, Drai's Nightclub and its LIVE concert series and Drai's After Hours by night, wrapped around the Soleia rooftop pool eleven stories above the Strip.

Be clear-eyed about the trade-offs. This is a boutique, so it has one signature restaurant rather than a dozen and no full spa or shopping arcade — you borrow the rest of the Strip for that. It also sits directly beneath one of the busiest nightclubs in the city, so it leans social and late; light sleepers should book higher and away from the rooftop, and expect energy rather than quiet. A resort fee applies and Caesars parking fees apply. But for location, design personality and a front-row seat to the fountains, nothing else on the Strip feels quite like it.
