Lisa Vanderpump and Guests Celebrate Grand Opening of The Vanderpump Hotel

The iconic Lisa Vanderpump has added a sparkling new gem to her hospitality portfolio in the heart of Las Vegas.

The Vanderpump Hotel is a first-of-its-kind destination on the Las Vegas Strip, created by renowned restaurateur and television personality Lisa Vanderpump in partnership with Caesars Entertainment. On Thursday, June 11, Vanderpump celebrated the official grand opening of The Vanderpump Hotel, her first hotel venture.

The evening began with a dramatic and unmistakably Vanderpump arrival. Vanderpump pulled up in a custom Rolls-Royce and made a theatrical entrance along the main casino floor flanked by bellmen. Wearing a shimmering silver dress with purple and green accents and long sheer gloves, Vanderpump was greeted by invited guests, VIPs and media attending the highly anticipated debut of the 188-room boutique hotel.

After a red-carpet event, invited VIPs continued onto the hotel’s rooftop—the massive 65,000-square-foot oasis, Soleia Beach, located 11 stories above the Las Vegas Strip and featuring open-air panoramic views, three pools, bungalows, and immersive LED displays.

Guests enjoyed a curated selection of bites and cocktails inspired by Vanderpump destinations, complemented by offerings from GIADA, reflecting the hotel’s broader culinary experience. Countless bottles of Lisa’s delicious sparkling wine were uncorked.

Vanderpump was joined by some of her famous friends for the event, including Sharon Osbourne, Lance Bass and Garcelle Beauvais. Additionally, cast members from Vanderpump Rules and Vanderpump Villa enjoyed the party.

The evening concluded with a 600-drone show above the Las Vegas Strip.

Designed by Lisa Vanderpump and Nick Alain through their design company Vanderpump Alain, The Vanderpump Hotel brings Lisa Vanderpump’s signature “industrial romantic” aesthetic to life through a layered, highly personal approach that combines feminine elegance with a masculine edge. Bespoke Vanderpump Alain furnishings and lighting shape the space, while thoughtful details create a cohesive narrative throughout the hotel.

Playful nods to her British heritage are woven throughout the resort, including an iconic red telephone booth and a classic English taxicab installation welcoming guests from Las Vegas Boulevard. A gallery wall of black-and-white photographs showcases cherished moments from Vanderpump’s life, from family and close friends to a mix of famous and furry faces.

Across the casino floor, a dramatic walkway is lined with chandeliers from the original resort, reimagined with new crystals and custom shades. The Vanderpump Hotel recently opened Gigolo, a sexy cocktail lounge named after Lisa’s beloved late Pomeranian “Giggy.”

“The Vanderpump Hotel has been a true labor of love,” said Lisa Vanderpump. “Like all my passion projects, this one is deeply personal. I think of it as my very own jewel box on the 50-yard line of the Las Vegas Strip – intimate, inviting, and filled with carefully curated details that each tell a story.

“To finally share it with the millions of Las Vegas visitors from around the world is a dream come true. Working with the Caesars Entertainment team has been such a wonderfully collaborative experience, and I feel very fortunate to have such an incredible team and to have opened this beautiful hotel.”

Sean McBurney, Chief Commercial Officer and Regional President of Caesars Entertainment, said, “Being part of Lisa’s next chapter in hospitality is a very special moment, and we couldn’t be more excited to open the doors of The Vanderpump Hotel and welcome our guests.”

Vanderpump rose to fame on Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and is the star and Executive Producer of the successful spinoff Vanderpump Rules. The Vanderpump Hotel marks the star and entrepreneur’s first foray into hotels and builds on the success of her expanding Las Vegas footprint.

Her collection of celebrated venues includes Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace, Vanderpump à Paris at Paris Las Vegas, and the recently opened Pinky’s by Vanderpump at Flamingo Las Vegas, located just steps from The Vanderpump Hotel. Beyond Las Vegas, she continues to grow her hospitality brand with popular destinations such as WOLF by Vanderpump at Caesars Republic Lake Tahoe and, most recently, WOLF by Vanderpump at Caesars Republic Scottsdale, alongside her successful ventures in wine, spirits, and lifestyle entertainment.
