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."
OysterUpscale
"The biggest hotel (by room count) in Las Vegas has the biggest casino in town, many of the best restaurants, an enormous and fun pool complex, and a huge range of on-site entertainment options." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Despite being one of the largest hotels in the world, the Grand maintains a relaxed ambience. It boasts a luxurious spa."
Star Service "This is one of the world's most exciting and energetic hotels, and also one of the largest." Full review
Gayot "When this hotel boasts about its superlative size, it's not kidding."
Lonely Planet "If you're looking to escape the hubbub on the Strip, these serene condominium oases may be just what you're looking for." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The MGM Grand, with its commanding location on the Vegas Strip marked by a 100,000-lb bronze lion statue, is a Las Vegas experience in itself." Full review

Concierge "In Vegas, folks looking for a bargain often try out less expensive "nongaming" properties but find themselves either far from the Strip or bored silly. Cue the nongambling Platinum Hotel."
Fodor's "This swank, nongaming, condo-hotel has become a fashionable hideaway for Vegas regulars who prefer top-notch amenities but don't need to stay on the Strip." Full review
OysterUpper-middle-range
"A classy condo-hotel tucked behind the big casinos, this 255-suite property is one of the best off-the-Strip values to be found." Full review
Time Out "The second condo-hotel to open in Las Vegas (the first was the Residences at the MGM Grand), this highly impressive property sits within a five-minute walk of the Strip." Full review
Gayot "This non-gaming, non-smoking hotel is a nice respite with its one- and two-bedroom suites, which range from 900 to 1,100 square feet."
BlackBook "A desert-toned, high-rise exterior with office-park aesthetics rocking all-suite accommodations in a gaming-free zone just a few minutes’ walk from the Strip."
Zagat4.8
"Sophisticated and hip, this all-suite boutique property is just over a mile from the Strip and has no casino, but the smoke-free haven lures trendy business and leisure travelers."
Gayot13.0
