Insider Info

Caesars Republic Scottsdale, a Hilton Hotel, quietly doubles as a celebrity chef playground, bringing together concepts from Lisa Vanderpump and Giada De Laurentiis under one roof. It’s one of the few places in Arizona where guests can move from rooftop cocktails at Wolf by Vanderpump to signature Italian dishes at Luna by Giada, all within the same stay.

Scottsdale summer just got a serious upgrade, and Caesars Republic is making sure no two pool days feel the same.

At Caesars Republic Scottsdale, a Hilton Hotel, the heat comes with options. Not one, but two distinct pool experiences are setting the tone for the season, giving guests a choice between laid-back rooftop luxury and full-on party energy, all under one very stylish desert sun.

Seven stories up, Wolf Pool is the elevated escape. Think sweeping Camelback Mountain views, craft cocktails in hand, and a scene that leans more chic retreat than chaos. During the week, it’s a sun-soaked sanctuary for hotel guests, with VIP cabanas available for those who prefer their lounging with a side of exclusivity. Non-hotel guests can join in with a day pass or cabana rental.

Come Saturday, the vibe shifts. The Vanderpump Rooftop Society takes over Wolf Pool from noon to 5 p.m., bringing DJ sets, a vibrant Spritz Bar, curated bites, and bottle service into the mix. The experience is reserved for hotel guests, though locals can secure access by booking a private cabana.

Down below, Cleopatra’s Pool & Bar is where Scottsdale’s pool culture shows up in full force. Open daily from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., it moves easily from relaxed daytime lounging into a high-energy weekend scene. Hotel guests have complimentary access, while locals can tap in with a day pass, which includes one bar beverage.

Weekends bring even more to the table. A new poolside menu rolls out Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., serving up tacos, sliders, and signature cocktails designed for long, sun-soaked afternoons.

Starting May 2, Cleopatra’s Pool Parties return every Saturday from noon to 5 p.m., turning up the volume with live DJs, handcrafted drinks, and an open-air atmosphere that defines Scottsdale summer. VIP cabanas are available for those looking to lock in their spot.

For those turning a pool day into a full weekend, the “Unleash Your Alter Ego” package leans all the way in. Guests who stay Friday or Saturday night receive a $50 daily food and beverage credit, late 1 p.m. checkout, and access to the Saturday pool parties.

Opened in March 2024, the 11-story, 265-room Caesars Republic Scottsdale stands out as the first non-gaming Caesars property in the U.S., built for a more modern, lifestyle-driven stay just steps from Scottsdale Fashion Square. Whether it’s rooftop lounging at Wolf or a full-scene Saturday at Cleo’s, this is where summer plans start to write themselves.
