Signature @MGM grand
Stayed here on our honeymoon in January, this is a marvellous hotel.
We drove up to this hotel through security controlled gates; our names were checked by the security guard on duty. This made me feel very safe (maybe I have watched too much CSI Vegas?)
We were in Tower 2.
The reception of Tower 2 is lovely, quite contemporary and full of sumptuous sofas and red roses. The staff and bell men were lovely, very welcoming and helpful. There was a resort fee, but we were made aware of this on booking and it was reasonable and covered our wifi acess.
We had a one bedroom suite on the Penthouse floor. Being that high up the lifts are sometimes a concern but rest assured these were super fast.
The suite was really spacious, décor wise it was not as elegant as the lobby (the carpet got a bit loud and some of the furniture was a bit faux antique) but everything was really good quality and spotlessly clean. We had a well appointed kitchen although there was no kettle, just a coffee percolator so no way to make tea. However I am sure if I had raised this a kettle would have been provided. We didn’t really use the fridge for anything except left over’s and wine however it could have comfortably taken a 2 weeks worth of food for a large family.
We had in suite dining, set out at a proper dining table in the living room on our arrival and the food was excellent, delicious but a bit pricey compared to eating out at restaurants in the main MGM. We had a bathroom, complete with large shower off the living room and another huge en suite bathroom with, ample worktop, a seperate WC, shower cubicle, Jacuzzi bath and ‘in bath’ LCD TV.
The windows are cleverly tinted so privacy is not an issue; it also gives the towers their distinctive gold appearance.
The bed room was well appointed and proportioned with plenty of drawer and hanging space and a HUGE flat screen TV discreetly hidden inside the desk.
We also had a balcony with beautiful views of the Nevada dessert and mountains where you could watch the sunrise.
The hotel provided us many useful ‘where to go and what to do in Vegas’ guides in the suite and the concierge service (located in another tower) was excellent, very polite, really efficient and organised everything we required with no fuss and excellent recommendations.
Another nice touch was the ‘housekeeping’ alarm. Just outside the front door of the suite there is a small control panel where you indicate whether you want the room cleaned or ‘do not disturb’. This alerts the maids and saves fuss with cards on the door handle.
We had to check back in (our flight home was delayed by 24 hours) and this time had a different suite with a strip view, I would recommend the Mountain view every time as there is too much construction going on on the strip to really see anything good and the mountains were very beautiful.
The hotel is attached to the main MGM by a LONG covered corridor (it has a motorised walkway if you are feeling lazy) and has a pool, beautiful gardens, coffee shop (which does excellent breakfasts and pancakes) and bar where we enjoyed a complimentary cocktail. We were here in January so we did not spend any time in the pool.
I would say this hotel is a perfect base for exploring Vegas, quietly elegant and relaxed with lots of greenery but still really close to the action.
