Stayed at the MGM for 4 nights with a business convention. The staff was great (probably because they knew my company booked 3000 rooms!!) and very quick to serve us. The casino is big, clean and non smokey. Matter of fact the whole place has a very nice smell to it. My room was perfectly clean and very comfy.

The sports book is too small for such a large place, but it is nice and clean. The gambling is expensive, so be prepared!
Overall, I would go back if the price was right. If you can search around and find a room here for under $90/night, the place is a steal. Just be prepared to get your exercise. Bring your walking shoes; they say the MGM is the largest hotel in the world and they're not kidding!!

We have just returned from a four night stay at the MGM Grand. We were awakened the last three nights with a horrible sound outside of out hotel window. There was a constuction elevator attached to the outside of our of our room and it scaled the building from 5:00 AM until 8:00 PM every day. This was reported to the front desk and was told I had to live with it. It literally sounded like a lawn mower was riding through our room every three minutes. Since we were there at a business conference we could not move to another hotel. The hotel manager was not sympathetic when my husband explained what had happened to us either at checkout. I left with a headache. If I return to Vegas again, I would prefer to stay in a hotel near the center of the strip. The MGM is located at the far end of the strip which means you need to be prepared to walk alot, especially if you want to shop and see other sites. The monorail system in Vegas takes a bit of hiking to get to and from also. Fortunately we enjoy walking for exercise, so this only meant we needed to make certain that we were wearing comfortable shoes. The shopping is not as good at the MGM but there really are some wonderful shopping opportunities down around Caesar's Palace and the Venetian. The restaurants in Vegas are wonderful everywhere you go, waits are practically nonexistent. and the guacamole dip at Diegos Restaurant in the MGM is wonderful. The casino is huge, but there is nothing eyecatching about the hotel. There is a lion habitat which is quite enjoyable. If gambling is your primary objective, the MGM Grand may suit your tastes, but if you are looking for convenience, respectable service, and a quieter room you might want to check out other opportunities. Our problem fell on deaf ears.

MGM Grand Hotel is a big mess, period. From the long lines of cars waiting for valet parking, to the long check-in lines, to the MAP you have to figure out to get anywhere, this place just sucks. It is a great hotel to stay in if you enjoy walking a lot as you can easily put in a couple miles a day simply getting from the parking area to the casino, to your room and to the restaurants. The rooms are low quality compared to NYNY, Monte Carlo, or Bally's. Thankfully I won about a grand in the sports book and got a bunch of free drinks and comp meals. I would not stay there again for free.

Getting off a 13 hour flight and heading straight to Vegas - we were happily satisfied at our room at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas. It is central to all the action, and has massive rooms with enormous bathrooms. After being in less than ideal size places elsewhere in the USA we were over the moon about the spacious rooms. Plus the price (booked on expedia through trip advisor) was great.

Definately recommend staying here.
