Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel
The Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel is one of the largest hotels in the world and is designed for luxury and grandeur.
The hotel is grand in every sense of the word, with almost seven thousand rooms and suites, sixteen restaurants & cafes, six swimming pools, and its huge casino, which occupies 171,500 square feet of floor space. The Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel is famous for its lions - including "Leo", the huge 45-foot bronze statue that guards the front of the building, and the huge lion habitat in the hotel foyer. Tourists flock into the hotel to see the lions through the glass wall of their enclosure, or walk through the glass tunnel that passes right underneath the lions. If you time your visit well, you can see the handlers hand-feeding, or playing with the lions. MGM Grand Pool ComplexThe Las Vegas MGM Grand has an amazing pool area, - the 'Grand Pool Complex', which consists of 5 pools, 3 whirlpools, and a huge lazy river, surrounded by beautiful tropical plants, waterfalls and fountains. There is a pool to suit everyone, including fun pools, that you can take rafts or other toys into, a pool that is designed for swimming laps, and the lazy river for relaxing. There is an excellent drinks service, and for several hours a day, music is played through speakers, which makes the area fun and lively. This, along with the numerous games and activities makes the MGM Grand Pool Complex a great choice for families. Another advantage of the MGM Pool Complex is that there are lots of sunbeds, so although the area can get quite busy, you shouldn't have too many problems getting a seat. Wet Republic Ultra PoolFor those who prefer an adults-only poolside party environment, the MGM also has the exclusive 'Wet Republic Ultra Pool', which is open to over-21 year olds only. The Wet Republic consists of 2 saltwater pools, 8 individual pools & spas, daybeds, chaise lounges and luxury cabanas & poolside bungalows for rent. DJs play out lively music across the 2,500 square-foot lounge area, where you can dance, socialise, or lie back with a cocktail.
