The MGM Grand Las Vegas

The MGM Grand Las Vegas is a hotel casino located on the Las Vegas Strip, which opened in 1993 as a Hollywood themed resort. The hotel is located in Paradise, Nevada but markets itself as a Las Vegas resort and uses "Las Vegas" on its addresses.

Owned and operated by the MGM Mirage company, the 30-floor main building is 293 feet (89 m) high and features five outdoor pools, rivers, and waterfalls that cover 6.6 acres, a 380,000 square foot (35,000 m²) convention center, the MGM Grand Arena, CBS Television City, and the Grand Spa. It also houses numerous shops and night clubs, 16 restaurants, two food courts, and the largest casino in Clark County, which occupies 171,500 square feet (16,000 m²).

The hotel rooms are located in several buildings including:

  • The world's largest hotel building, with 5,044 rooms (4,293 rooms and 751 suites)
  • The three The Signature at MGM Grand towers each with 576 suites
  • SKYLOFTS at MGM Grand with 51 lofts
  • The Mansion at MGM Grand with 29 villas

Located on the Tropicana - Las Vegas Boulevard intersection, pedestrians are not allowed to cross at street level. Instead, the MGM Grand is linked by overhead pedestrian bridges to its neighboring casinos: to the south across Tropicana Avenue, the Tropicana, and to the west across the Strip, the New York-New York.

Paris Las Vegas Hotel

Paris Las Vegas Description(paris las vegas)

The City of Light is faithfully reflected in every square inch of Paris Las Vegas. Anchored by scaled-down replicas of the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, the resort feels worlds removed -- not just from Las Vegas but from time itself.(paris las vegas)

Entering Paris Las Vegas is akin to visiting Paris proper, in all its beauty and ineffable charm. Paris Las Vegas staff members greet guests with a cheerful "Bonjour," and the restaurants that flank the walkways resemble Parisian cafes, complete with "outdoor" seating.(paris las vegas)

The 85,000-square-foot casino has a vaulted ceiling and is adorned with fountains and statuary, and the legs of the Eiffel Tower protrude into it; the gaming tables sit under faithfully reproduced Art Nouveau-style Metro arches.(paris las vegas)

The shops and restaurants of Le Boulevard sit on a cobblestone "street." Intimacy is stressed above all: The dining rooms are cozy, the shops small and humble, even the buffet is broken into a series of smaller dining rooms, with fireplaces, mirrors and mantels.(paris las vegas)

As you walk down Le Boulevard, you will notice lifelike bronze statues along the way. Watch for a few moments, and you'll witness another bit of Paris magic -- some of those statues look lifelike for a reason, they are real people.(paris las vegas)

Guest rooms are spacious and beautifully appointed, and the list of amenities seems nearly bottomless: dual-line phones, data ports, full-length mirrors and more.(paris las vegas)

There's much more to Paris Las Vegas, including the fine pastries of LenĂ´tre, the European-style health spa, lounges, a sports book and luxurious convention areas. The Paris Las Vegas resort has a lot to live up to and does so with romance and style. (paris las vegas)
