Photos: The Cromwell Nears Completion

Construction continues on The Cromwell, the new Las Vegas hotel set to welcome its first guests beginning May 21. The Cromwell will feature 188 rooms and suites, a 40,000-square-foot casino, hotel lobby bar, lounge and restaurant by television personality, celebrity chef and first-time restaurateur Giada De Laurentiis and game-changing rooftop pool, day and nightlife venues by Victor Drai.

The distinctive porte cochere continues to take shape at The Cromwell. This $185 million renovation of the former Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall & Saloon features whimsical details of a boutique hotel including black Parisian-style awnings and ornate black railings, repurposed from the original structure, punctuating each room window.

Fun Fact: The gold and red chandeliers photographed above were refurbished and are the original fixtures from Barbary Coast.

The 40,000-square-foot casino continues to take shape. Architect Leo A. Daly and Las Vegas-based design studio Tandem Las Vegas designed The Cromwell to blend vintage with modern. The Cromwell will feature 66 table games, 440 slot machines and a reserved gaming salon.

The hotel bar and lounge, Interlude, with its centralized location and close proximity to nightlife, will serve as a social-inspired gathering place featuring cutting-edge mixology. A warm palette of red, gold and browns will fashion the sexy, intimate Interlude bar and lounge.
