Rough Guide
"A great standard of accommodation for the price."
Frommer's
"We've grown very fond of this hotel, and we have to admit that it's gone to some efforts to make the ridiculous size work to its -- and, thus, your -- advantage." Full review
Fodor's
"A regal, bronze rendering of the roaring MGM lion mascot fronts the four emerald-green, fortress-like towers of the MGM Grand, one of the largest hotels in the world." Full review
Insight Guides
"A prime example of the ‘supersize’ Vegas mentality: a huge property at a great Strip location. Rooms in the West Wing are the best."
Oyster
Upscale

"This full-service golf and spa resort offers a Mediterranean-style oasis less than 20 minutes from the Strip."
Zagat
