MGM Grand Detroit
Detroit, Michigan
Have you ever prayed your vacation would last forever? You will here. An anchor to the city’s entertainment district, MGM Grand Detroit is a palatial, $800 million Four Diamond AAA award-winning resort destination that’s the equal of nearly any mega-casino—including its own Vegas namesake. At MGM Grand Detroit, guests enjoy exquisite accommodations, impeccable service, and a stream of entertainment options including everything from 24/7 gaming on the 100,000-square-foot casino floor to all manner of nightlife at their popular nightclubs, bars and lounges.
Home base for your stay is one of 400 chic and stylish guest rooms (starting at 510 square feet) or one of nine rooftop VIP suites and 56 opulent corner suites on the highest floors of the 18-story tower. Rooms feature contemporary interior design that emanates a warm ambiance with chocolate, dark cranberry and lime accents. Oversized guestroom bathrooms, which make up nearly a quarter of total room size, boast spacious walk-in showers with double showerheads; a 15-inch plasma TV embedded in the mirror; Palisandro marble countertops; double vanity sinks; separate water closet; lighted make-up mirrors and products by H2O spa.
For techies, room features include a telephone “butler” with color touch-screen technology that enables guests to access property information, schedule wake-up calls, order room service and connect to the Internet without picking up the phone. With a simple touch of buttons, guests even may access stock updates and airline flight status. All rooms are appointed with a 42-inch wall-mounted plasma television and an IPOD docking station.
Should you feel the need to branch out, the hotel offers a special guest-only private “Living Room” which features wall-length fireplaces and a dramatic backlit wall complete with cascading fountains to enhance the scenery. Look for oversized ottomans, plush sofas, and contemporary artwork from acclaimed Michigan artist Herb Babcock, which unites the décor. The living room serves as a gathering place to relax, wait for friends and business associates, or make reservations and requests via the dedicated concierge.
