The highly-anticipated 181-room boutique hotel, the world's first Nobu Hotel at Caesars Palace Las Vegas, is a masterful collaboration between Caesars Palace, Chef Nobu Matsuhisa and Nobu Hospitality primary shareholders, actor Robert De Niro and Hollywood film producer Meir Teper.

Nobu Hotel Caesars Palace is the first celebrity chef-branded hotel venture in Las Vegas. David Rockwell and his firm the Rockwell Group led the overall interior design for the boutique hotel, which features 181 guest rooms including 18 suites.
