The motto of the MGM Grand Hotel is "Maximum Vegas." Between the MGM Grand Garden Arena, the Hollywood Theater and the on-site Cirque du Soleil show, this hotel successfully delivers all the Las Vegas entertainment guests expect from a mega-resort. Located right on The Strip, the MGM Grand is one the few Las Vegas hotels to merit its own monorail stop.　

A modern day Emerald City, the 30-story hotel has a green glass facade that’s guarded by a 45-foot-tall bronze lion, the symbol of the MGM movie studios. True to its name, the hotel evokes the glitz and glamour of the Hollywood golden era, from the white marble lobby to the Art Deco interior design. Guest rooms are appointed with sleek Deco-inspired furnishings, curved couches and lacquered woodwork. The hotel’s Las Vegas Suites categories (Premiere, Hollywood and Celebrity) boast upscale features, like mirrored whirlpools and vaulted ceilings, as well as expansive terraces overlooking the neon lights of The Strip. Most bathrooms are done in imported Italian marble with televisions embedded in the mirrors of the oversize vanity counters.

Guests of the hotel will find some of the most diverse dining Las Vegas restaurants have to offer. The hotel has 10 fine-dining establishments, many of which are helmed by celebrity chefs, as well as several casual restaurants, cafés and coffee shops. Chef Joël Robuchon serves traditional French cuisine at his eponymous restaurant, which maintains limited seating for an intimate atmosphere. Several well-known restaurants have opened outposts at the MGM Grand, including Tom Colicchio’s Craftsteak, Wolfgang Puck’s Bar & Grill, NYC mainstay Fiamma Trattoria & Bar and Michael Mina’s modern American Nobhill Tavern. More exotic flavors are served at Pearl, a high-end Chinese restaurant, Shibuya, a traditional Japanese and sushi restaurant, and Diego, which features an authentic Mexican menu.

Just like the Hollywood golden era, the MGM Grand Las Vegas Hotel is home to plenty of glitzy nightlife. The hotel has several distinct lounges, dance clubs and bars, the most famous of which is the newly reimagined Studio 54 dance club, which keeps the music going until the wee hours of the morning. Vida! is the spot for Latin-infused beats and dancing and Tabú Ultra Lounge features international DJs and interactive videos. Centrifuge, Zuri and Rouge lounges each feature their own signature cocktail list to accompany each unique decor, from red-hot leather to cool modern minimalism. The entertainment is just as diverse with the Crazy Horse Paris cabaret show, the KÀ Cirque du Soleil show, the one-of-a-kind off-site Lion Habitat and the MGM Grand Garden Arena, which has hosted everyone from Mike Tyson to Madonna.
