MGM Grand Hotel & Casino

MGM is the Vegasiest of Vegas resorts - it's got Michelin restaurants and cheesy food courts, incredible suites and some of the most outdated rooms on the Strip if you book without paying attention. It's a truly massive resort with a big casino, tons of restaurants, and major events at the arena next door. By all means stay here, but make sure you know what room you're getting (and where you're parking).
