This was a girls getaway weekend, 3 of us shared a room. The Pro's: Room was
large, beds were comfy, and bathroom was big with 2 sinks and 2 showers (1
stall, 1 over the bath). The Con's: The lighting in the room was horrible, the
showers were super slippery and hard to move in (one of us actually fell), our
straighter blew out the fuse in the bathroom, the couch was super uncomfortable
to sit on, the hot water too forever to get to our room (one night we gave up)
and the TV's are small and old. The bars inside the MGM were boring!! We had to
leave the hotel every night to find free music and dancing. If the price is
right, stay here....but seriously I think we could have done a lot better.

I intend this to be informative rather thsn critical. This was my first trip to
Las Vegas. I was traveling with my wife and 7 other couples celebrating
birthdays. I don't care to gamble. Just walking from lobby to my room I estimate
to be 1/2 mile. When my room key card didn't work that meant walking that far to
get a new one. Room was clean, small window, shower only. Had a nice Bose wave
radio which I appreciated. No coffee maker. Getting coffee in morning requires a
bit of a walk or paying $25.00 from room service. If you like coffee, I suggest
purchasing a cheap coffee maker locally and leaving in the hotel room when you
leave - you'll come out cheaper. Calling concierge always required long wait on
hold but staff were courteous and helpful once you got them. We stayed in the
west wing and there was a second set of elevators close to our room that got you
out to las Vegas blvd quickly - that was nice. Plenty of lounges and places to
meet up is another plus. Lots of restaurant options - everything in las Vegas is
expensive - but good dining options from gourmet to very casual are available on
the hotel property. The pool was closed ( a disappointment), no hot tub. They
have a small exercise room with just treadmills and a few elliptical trainers -
but you get plenty of walking in just checking out the strip.

Check-in and out at the MGM was extremely efficient. Our room was ready when we
arrived a little early and the room was very spacious. To make it ideal, it
would have had 2 sinks in the bathroom, in-room coffee, and a mini-fridge,
however, the beds were comfy and room service accommodating. Most of the
restaurant service was "perfunctionarily" performed with a couple of servers as
stand-outs, but staff that we asked questions of regarding directions, etc. were
more than accommodating. Wolfgang Puck's had delish pizza. The buffet was okay,
but not great. The resort/casino is spacious with a Capital S. It is helpful
that it is on the monorail line which is easy to use and to get to other places
along the Strip too. Since there is so much walking in LV, I would probably
choose a smaller place next time (if value was the same). It is a long way from
one restaurant to another or to the elevators and down the floors from the
monorail after walking all day. Pack very comfortable shoes. The MGM does not
have a theme, per se, so we hoofed it to view other hotel/resorts. Not to miss
are the Bellagio fountains and conservatory (fabulous), and our second runner-up
was the Paris-themed resort. Take plenty of small bills...tips are expected for
everything. Cabs are very expensive. Try the bus passes and/or monorail first.
No matter, though, you can't help but have fun in Las Vegas.

Stayed at the MGM Grand. Had a great time. You most visit Freemont street the
light show is excellent. Also take a flight to the grand canyon mind blowing.

I stayed at the MGM for 3 nights in January and I was beyond impressed by this
stunning hotel and the customer service.
The hotel has just been renovated and we stayed in one of the new rooms – wow!!!
The room is beautiful. I loved the attention to detail and how fresh and hip the
hotel feels.
The staff was just incredible. Everyone from the valet, bellman, front desk and
room service staff were so nice and attentive and everyone said “are you having
a nice stay….can I do anything to help you……have a wonderful day” etc.
The Assistant Front Desk Manager Jeremy went above and beyond to help make our
stay just perfect!
I ordered room service 4 times and I ate in one of the restaurants downstairs
and thought the food was amazing.
This hotel has everything! Its right in the middle of the action, has great bars
and restaurants and is newly renovated! What more could you ask for? This will
be the place I stay in Vegas from now on! |
