MGM Grand wraps $3M renovation of nearly 4,000 guestrooms

MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas has unveiled a complete redesign of all 3,969 rooms and suites in its main tower.

Designed by global architecture firm Gensler in partnership with MGM Resorts Design & Development, the $300 million transformation was inspired by the disco era, according to the company.

“MGM Grand has long stood out as one of the most iconic resorts on the Strip and this remodel marks an ambitious step forward in the resort’s evolution,” Mike Neubecker, president & COO of MGM Grand, said in a statement. “Inspired by our guests’ feedback, we’ve designed rooms that deliver what both business and leisure travelers value most, providing a thoughtful balance of style, comfort and functionality.”

Throughout the tower, artwork and retro-inspired patterns are designed to evoke the 1970s. MGM King rooms have walnut finishes and vivid carpeting, while MGM Two Queen rooms incorporate soft gray stone, vertical sconces and tailored headboards, according to the company. Each room has bedside charging stations equipped with USB, USB-C and traditional outlets, along with upgraded media consoles. Custom artwork—including LED installations—is included in both corridors and guestrooms.

Bathrooms now have spa-like walk-in showers with glass enclosures and bright porcelain finishes. Brighter materials are designed to open the space and provide an airier feel, complemented by wall-mounted Smart TVs that free up surface space. Minibar units have been upgraded as well to include separate guest-use refrigerators.

As part of the project, MGM Grand also expanded its suite collection with the addition of 111 new accommodations, bringing the total to 753. The new suites range from 675 to 1,784 square feet and have refined finishes, sectionals and reconfigured floor plans designed for greater privacy and flexible living. Bathrooms were fully refreshed to include double mirrors, quartz benches and upgraded showers.
