MGM Grand Hotel & Casino

For my 1st trip to vegas, to celebrate my 30th, MGM Grand was a good choice! On sight Entertainment and location was great1 I wish the hotel would of alerted travelers to the amount of renovation going on prior to our arrival. I also wished the hotel was more accomodating to late check out for travekers with late night flights. Overall, I would stay at this hotel again!

My mother and I came to MGM for her birthday celebration and had an amazing and pampered time!!! The staff were helpful and gave exquisite service!! We will return later this year!!! Thank you for everything!!!

We stayed here 4 years ago when we got married and thought the room was fantastic. This time, although very clean the room is not as practical as I remember. The bathroom light is straight in the middle of the mirror (a horror for females trying to get ready) and the television in the mirror is to the left. Privacy in the toilet area is far from private so don't go there with a new or prospective love! Other than these few things the room is still pretty cool...

Pretty much the very moment we got to our hotel we were disappointed because when we went to check into our luxurious sweet we were told we had to down grade rooms because they screwed up our reservation even tho we called two days before to confirm then when we got there they said that room was no longer available. Our tv kept cutting out even After we switched remotes once just to add to it. They did give us one hundred dollars food credit for our huge down grade room but a simple breakfast at a cafeteria style cafe (nothing fancy) cost us about fifty dollars and the food was terrible, under cooked eggs and almost raw potatoes. The location of the hotel was rather far away from the central action as well. I would never stay at the MGM again, it seemed like each day we were there the worse and worse our stay at the MGM grand got.

Everything was o.k, good location. Clean room, nice view.

Got great price for a stay and upgraded to a suite. the TV was new and was searching for a signal at times so it would cut out once in awhile, but who goes to Vegas to watch tv?

It was just beautiful! Comfortable, large bathroom.

The MGM is very clean and comfertable and is in the perfect location for a Vegas stay. I loved the beds super comfy after a night of drinking and the bathroom had a great vanity.

The MGM is beautiful. The lobby deserves the name Grand. The men out front are very professional, good thing because the MGM hosts conventions all the time. My room was great. It had an art deco feel like you might see in Miami. The shower was huge. It had a big, comfortable bed and perhaps a 30 in tv. Who goes there to watch tv? One thing, its not for the weak in the knees. Its a long walk to anywhere. I was told it was 300 steps from the elevator to my room. It was a 20 minute walk, plus an elevator ride to the conference center. There is no indoor pool at this time. If you want to sit in a whirlpool, there is one in the spa. They have several spa packages for men and women. As for walking outside, I don't know why sidewalks are optional in Vegas. Be prepared for that if you walk. It took me a long time to get to Harrahs. Methinks the maps are not to proper scale. The buffet at the MGM was $18. At one of the nicer restaurants the smallest steak was $29. The skirt steak and the shrimp were both delicious. It was a good place for people watching too. I'm not a gambler, I was there on business, so I can't report on how the gaming goes. They have the usual machines, as well as blackjack. There are several eating places like McDonalds inside too. Restrooms are few and far between, so the long walk advisory applies there too. There are shops for medium priced clothes, and even a wedding chapel. The MGM has a little bit of everything and is well run.

I was turned off by the idea of paying a $25/day resort fee but decided to give MGM a chance. I am so glad my family made the decision to stay there! Our hotel room was on the 7th floor and was amazingly easy to get there. The room was very clean and decor was beautiful. We didn't have much of a view but didn't care about that much since we were only in the room to sleep and get ready to have some Vegas fun. It kind of sucks to not have your own refrigerator or microwave in your room but that's pretty much how it is at all the major hotels on the strip. We called to see if we could get a fridge but was informed that it was $25/day... NO THANKS! Good thing they have ice machines. I read other reviews complaining about the scent around the hotel and I will warn you that it is definitely overwhelming but you will get used to it where you don't notice it anymore. I didn't smell it in our room but all over the casino and hallways it was there. The WiFi was blazingly fast! I was very impressed with how fast I could upload and download stuff on my phone and computer. I've stayed at other Vegas hotels where they charged $19.99 for one freakin' day of mediocre service so the $25 resort fee was well worth it in my opinion. I can't comment on how the pool was since we went in February when they are closed. I was very sad to see the lion exhibit closed... Apparently they are building another night club (just what Vegas needs, right? Another night club?!). The hotel is far in my opinion, I usually stay in the middle of the strip. We had a rental car so it wasn't really a big issue for us. They also have trams (we didn't use it) so if you aren't renting a car make sure to wear good walking shoes if you want to check out other sites! Overall I would definitely stay here again. Staff was very warm and welcoming and our room was the best I've stayed in!
