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

Rough Guide "Despite its very unfashionable location at the far north end of the Strip, the Stratosphere has survived thanks to rock-bottom rates and a steady flow of budget tour groups."
OysterMid-Range
"The 2,444-room Stratosphere Hotel and Casino... is on the northern outskirts of the Strip... but it's still a great pick for the price." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The 2,427 guest rooms are basic but comfortable; “select” rooms contain updated amenities like marble floors and flat-screen TV’s." Full review
Time Out "The Stratosphere strives to be a destination resort out of necessity: it's between the Strip and Fremont Street, essentially no-man's land." Full review
Star Service "This hotel, the northern anchor for The Strip, is hard to miss, even in this city of horizon-hogging landmarks." Full review

Accommodations are in the Premier, World and Regency towers, with those in the Premier tower being the most requested for their decor and views from high floors.
Gayot "This place is good news for bargain hunters --- the service is friendly, and the prices and betting action are great."
Fodor's "Down below, in two hotel towers, standard rooms were renovated in late 2010 and are now downright sumptuous for the price." Full review
Lonely Planet "The bland hotel rooms are not actually inside the tallest tower west of the Mississippi River but they're usually a bargain." Full review
The Telegraph7.0

Jetsetter "A classic casino resort on the north end of the the glittering Strip, with more than 800 slot machines." Full review
