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."

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."

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."

Upscale
"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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."
