Brief History of The Cromwell Hotel Las Vegas
The Cromwell Hotel in Las Vegas has a long and illustrious history going back to the 1950s. It was a motel at first, changing several owners and names, before becoming more recognizable in 1979. When it first opened as the Barbary Coast Hotel and Casino, it was a popular hangout for entertainment seekers and gamblers. Over the years, the building saw many ownership changes and renovations until it became Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall and Saloon in the early 2000s.
The hotel had a major makeover and rebranding in 2013, becoming The Cromwell. It developed into a chic and affluent destination on the Las Vegas Strip with a lively casino and rooftop beach club thanks to its boutique-style architecture. Since then, The Cromwell has gained recognition for its romantic atmosphere, and opulent lodgings, all of which contribute to a unique and unforgettable Las Vegas experience.

Conclusion
The four-pearl boutique hotel The Cromwell, which has its own casino and retro-style décor, is located right in the center of the Las Vegas Strip. All 188 of the rooms and suites feature tasteful design, however, most are devoid of coffee machines. Many of the accommodations offer views over The Strip.
Among the leisure-oriented amenities is Drai’s Beachclub Nightclub, an indoor/outdoor club with extended hours and many pools; however, entry is limited to those aged 21 and above, and you have to pay to enter. There are also a few eateries, including a classy Italian restaurant designed by famous chef Giada De Laurentiis and a 24-hour snack bar. Overall, it’s a terrific venue for younger partygoers, but families would be better served going to the much bigger MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, which is kid-friendly.
