Always double down on 11. #DontBlowIt -
I left 5000 of my best friends here. -
They have the most uncomfortable pillows to sleep. So bring yours from home if you wanna stay here. -
-
Yeah, fucking warp. -
If you are staying a bit get the prima card. Free club access, drinks, desserts, show and room upgrades ( must spend $500 total$ -
-
-
Don't mess around with the wannabes , MGM Grand is where it's at!! -
Home of my favorite game in Vegas, the Sigma Derby. -
Best tables in Vegas, bring your balls -
Could the conference rooms possibly be any further away from the hotel rooms. No exaggeration, 15 minute walk. Buffet also subpar. -
Had a wonderful stay! oct. 6th-9th 2010. - will be back @mattwenkman -
The lazy river is a lot of fun on those hot summer days. -
Also, to get discounts all around MGM Hotel, play the TEXT Scavenger Hunt ~ just text the word "HUNT" to 50435 and enjoy the discounts on drinks and more! -
-
-
Go to Wet Republic if you're pretty. -
The burger and secret sauce is amazing... -
Try The Big Cheese at Studio Cafe... absolutely the best cheese omelet! -
check out the lion habitat between 11am & 7pm -
Visit lv-vip.com for a vip experience while in vegas. U will be glad u did! -
Ka show is great !! -
The Queen slot machine is fun and plays clips from several hits. -
Walking down the Strip there is a show about every 50 feet -
Thanks for the great stay! Excellent room and staff. -
Go to Shibuya for the best Sushi in town.
-
-
Prepare to walk if ya come here! Largest hotel in Las Vegas means lots of walking. -
Viva Las Vegas -
I'm used to luxury 5 star hotels. I got bumped to mgm grand since THE HOTEL over booked. The rooms are decent, I'm usually very fussy and I'm not complaining. Beds are super comfy! -
Be sure to check out David Copperfield while you are here. Amazing show, and there is no greater magician around. -
Watch the Cirque du Solei's Ka Show! It is awesome! -
Would you like your very own patio for amazing views of the Las Vegas Strip? Then you'll love our Terrace Suites! -
If you self park: save it into your memo pad....this garage is huge! -
Bicycle!!!
-
Hit up Fat Tuesdays before walking the strip! It's cheaper overall and will get you crunk! -
Nice to visit but need to work on the lion show! -
Had a great time at the blackjack tables -
Lazy river, fat Tuesdays and a decent casino. -
The breakfast buffet is hardly worth the walk from your room -
Carol is the best BlackJack dealer in all of Vegas. She works dayshift, next to Rouge. -
Going to a concert?? Don't bother to sneak in a camera.. The staff hound and harass you. Its terrible. If your gonna stop me stop the rest of the 10,000 people snappin pics. Horrible! -
CSI way over priced for what you get. Come on MGM. -
I can't wait to go back. Awesome room, bad view though. Great casino, bars, and clubs in here. I'll stay again. :) -
West wing rooms are cool for couples and are quite sweet. -
-
David Copperfield show was definitely entertaining! Very mind boggling. Check it out. -
Check out KA (and others) for $50! http://bit.ly/caRaJ7 -
Wet Republic!! -
Loved the West Wing rooms even if they were a bit of a long walk from the elevators. They were clean, trendy and ultra modern. -
-
go see the Crazy Horse show -
Be sure to check out the Lion Habitat! -
Avoid the west wing... Trendy and ultra-modern styling makes for a dull experience- Rest of the hotel is great, though! -
Save your energy and go to a real hotel like the Encore/Wynn... Makes MGM look like a Motel 6
-
Go to the Sports Book for the Blackhawks vs. Sharks game. -
If you need free wifi go up to level 28 in the elevators. Connect to 'skyloft' and accept their T&Cs for access. Ask for a room on this level. Save yourself 15$ on room wifi and ask for a room on 28. -
I got engaged this weekend at Craftsteak in MGM. The food was amazing and the staff went above and beyond expections in helping me make this a very unique and romantic proposal. -
Nice young crowd and Wet Republic makes this hotel so much so much more fun. -
I'll be here tonight! -
Try to avoid the West Wing. Rooms are tiny! -
Great Hotel!!!
-
See if you can solve a murder. Check out the CSI Experience -
I wanna be the mayor! -
bravo place -
go see the lion habitat open 11-7. they feed them around 1 and if they have cubs you can get pictures taken. -
One of my favorite casino / hotels in Vegas, the Monorail will be your friend. Hit the Studio Cafe for breakfast or Tabu for night drinks. Buffet sub-par. -
New food court has good food: Bonanno's has good cheap Italian. Nathans has good breakfast. -
Hold your breath because the Grand Tower elevators (a.k.a. poo-vators) smell like sewage. -
the craft steak house is the best.
-
If you are a guest of MGM Grand, you can get a 40% discount on tickets to KA. That's nearly a buy 1 get 1 deal. Call concierge desk for details. -
See the Crazy Horse Paris show. Unless you can get toCirque de Soleil (Love). -
