Room 25-133, MGM Grand, Las Vegas

1 August 2014

Words: Gareth Rees / Images: MGM Grand, Las Vegas

The MGM Grand is one of Las Vegas’ most iconic properties, and after an impressive US$160 million remodelling of its rooms, now is the time to visit. The Grand King Premier View isn’t ‘luxurious’, and it doesn’t pretend to be, instead choosing to simplify the stay and nail down the basics, such as an easy to navigate television system on a centre-piece flat-screen.

Ultimately, this hotel room, with its tempting view of Vegas life on the street below, is merely a base. It’s all about location in Vegas, and there’s no better place to be situated than the MGM Grand. Inside you can dine at Wolfgang Puck or one of Joel Robuchon’s two restaurants, while outside Hakkasan delivers exceptional Chinese dining before turning post-midnight into one Vegas’ most happening nightspots.

Among the options for after-dinner entertainment are William Shatner’s one-man show and club-come-circus Beacher’s Madhouse. Enjoy it all, safe in the knowledge you’ll have somewhere comfortable to rest your head in the morning.
