Robert De Niro Brings Nobu Brand to Vegas Boutique Hotel Within Caesars Palace

It’s the most anticipated event in Sin City this year and it’s less than a month away.

What used to be the Centurion Tower at Caesars Palace was gutted and has been converted into the world’s first Nobu Hotel, the first of four currently in the works.
