"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."

Rough Guide
"Everything is of an impeccably high standard, but the building itself is much less interesting."
Frommer's
"The Palazzo is an expansion of the impressive Venetian, but one that functions as a separate hotel, with its own massive grand lobby, own restaurants, and own rates." Full review
Concierge
"You could almost say the casino at the Palazzo is "boutique" compared to other megaresorts."
Fodor's
"Though it has struggled to keep restaurants, the hotel's an understated blend of style and sophistication." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"With a two-story fountain gushing in its entry, the 3,066 room high-rise resort is a memorable new arrival." Full review

Gayot
"From the team behind The Venetian comes The Palazzo: a fifty-story, all-suite property with European-influenced, plush guest quarters varying in size from 720 up to 3,000 square feet."
BlackBook
"This sister casino to the adjacent Venetian works a luxurious theme that's part vintage Europe, part modern Beverly Hills."
