Some of the Cradlepoint routers do WiFi as WAN.
They basically have dual radios.
One can be used for your internal network.
The other can be used to connect to a WiFi network.
In your case, this would be the hotspot of your phone.
You would still have to start your hotspot manually.

You really don't need the main feature of this router, which is connecting to the internet through 3G/4G carrier service.
However, I don't know of any other routers that have the equivalent of WiFi as WAN.
