The site of Planet Hollywood was previously occupied by the Aladdin, an Arabian-themed hotel and casino which operated until 1997. Real estate developer Jack Sommer demolished the Aladdin in 1998 to make way for a new version, with London Clubs International as his partner. The new Aladdin opened on August 18, 2000. It suffered immediate financial problems, eventually filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September 2001.
Planet Hollywood International and Starwood Hotels took over ownership in 2004, and launched a renovation to convert the property into a Planet Hollywood resort, a project which concluded in 2007. The resort suffered further financial problems amid the Great Recession, with Caesars taking ownership in 2010.
