Skylofts at MGM Grand

The Mister and I spent 2 nights here before Super Bowl, and it was absolutely ridiculous - private pickup from the airport, full time butler, private elevator and floor for Skylofts, VIP room cards with access to clubs, access to the exclusive Mansion restaurant, bathroom that is like an adult water park. We booked Picasso through our butler and got perfect window seats viewing the fountain. I don't ever want to stay anywhere else haha.PRO TIP: for those who want this experience on a budget, look for off-season pricing. We stayed for $700/night, which is basically the cheapest rate of the year. The same room could go up to more than $5k/night!

TL;DR The best purchasable contemporary luxury hotel experiences in Vegas matched only by Aria SkySuites. Note: Sorry no pics. I sat on this review for a few months and accidently deleted the SD card.MGM Skylofts is a hotel within a hotel with a separate lobby, lounge, concierge and private restaurant. The property has received the prestigious Forbes five star and AAA five diamond awards.Lofts range from one to three bedrooms (this review is for the one bedroom loft at 1400sq/ft) and are all loft design (two floors).IMPORTANT: there are stairs (split level in the main living area and to the second floor bedroom). If it's a problem...The loft oozes understated contemporary luxury. Natural warm tones, oversized furnishings, well appointed with artwork. WiFi throughout with plenty of places to charge your tech.Do check out the pillow menu for the best night sleep ever.Do use the combo steam shower / shower. Sweat out the alcohol.Do use the infinity tub. Relax away the stress from gaming.Do laugh at yourself when you hang your two pairs of jeans, five shirts, hoodie, and suit in the MASSIVE walk in closet.Do get room service. Order anything from any restaurant on property and your butler will serve you in your loft's dining room and make you a drink to top it off.Do try the private restaurant; the Mansion Dining Room. (Covered in a separate review)Do take advantage of the Skylounge. A nightly HH in the lobby. A great place to get a drink without having to mingle with a crowd at a casino bar or lounge. Solid selection of wines by the glass and a very well chosen selection of brown libations. You do have to pay for the drinks, typical high Vegas markup.Service is omnipresent without being intrusive and is friendly, never stuffy. The room is cleaned and made up and turndown service happens when you're out. Any staff you meet greets you warmly with a smile.Booking is easiest by CALLING luxury reservations (see skylofts website). Online booking direct is near impossible and you will pay much more using a third party booking site. Be sure to have your MGM Rewards number for the largest savings.Nightly rates vary but unlike "normal" properties, are not always higher on the weekends. This five night stay averaged $850/nt plus the very irritating daily resort fee.Would this be my first choice when "vacationing" in Vegas. No. Aria Skysuites holds that distinction being part of the more contemporary Aria with a better restaurant collection, higher energy youthfully spirited people of means clientele, higher limit poker room and very easy access to the neighboring Bellagio.That said, Skylofts definitely over impresses in all the right ways.

This is the most fancy fancy hotel stay that I had ever had in my life. This is something that you would do for a special occassion or if you just like to really relax and just hang out in your hotel room. You pretty much have everything you need to stay in there all day. If you prefer the Butler to come pick you up at the airport on arrival you just call them. They will come pick you you up in a limo. Once you arrive at MGM, you will go to another area to check in and they will come downstairs to help you with your luggage (if you need it) and escort you to the room. They show you the special elevator that you will use to get your room. Once you reach the room area, you will notice that there is no smell of smoke in the lobby area. The area was very quite, (no rowdy drunk people like the regular MGM resort hotel rooms with beer bottle left everywhere in the lobby area.) The place smelled so good and there is a desk right outside the elevator lobby where they can help you with whatever you need 24 hours a day. They were all very friendly and very nice and helped you with your check in. Once they escorted you inside the room the host will also pour welcome juice and leave you with a plate of deserts, and fruit on the table. The host will show you around the downstairs, show you the bar area, the huge steam shower, the amazing jet bathtub, the big king size bed with 9 pillows of different softness you can choose from. They also leave you a bath bomb for the shower. The soft fluffy robes are also a nice touch. If you need help with the bath tub you can all the butler and they can help you start the bath. There is also a Dyson hair dryer you can use to dry your hair. The view is also amazing and there is virtually no noise and no rowdy people in this area so this is a very calm and relaxing experience. I had ordered breakfast and I must say although the breakfast seemed pricy they give you a lot food that is all very high quality and delicious that you will not be hungry for lunch. Breakfast was very good. Your butler will come an set up the table for you to have your breakfast. If there is any issues with the room at all the staff will come in and help you fix it. I felt really safe and comfortable during my stay here. I really didn't feel like I had to go anywhere. Also! if you want coffee in the morning or afternoon you can always take the elevator downstairs the lodge area and they have a coffee maker and some free snacks and water. Just such a nice experience. I did not feel like I was at MGM. It was a beautiful experience. Don't forget to tip the butler at the end if you do use all the services. They work really hard to make sure you are taken care of. This was the best stay I had ever had in my life! The best service I had ever had.

I've never in a million years thought I'd ever get to experience this place! It definitely isn't your average hotel or should i say lofts! First of all the place is MASSIVE, the rooms are bigger than my entire house! The place is well kept, very clean and organized and everyone was extremely helpful & friendly. I especially loved the room service & butlers. Everyday there was a random sweet treat left in the room for us. Day 1 was some cupcakes, day 2 was chocolate covered pretzels and day 3/4 i can't remember because my boyfriend probably ate them before i could see them! My uncle is the Nior player who gets the rooms, so we shared the 2 bedroom loft.

My review is late, so so late...I actually posted in the basic MGM grand hotel page not realizing that the Skylofts has their own separate page on Yelp.It's been a while, 5 years ago since I stayed here. I usually travel to Vegas at least twice a year but because of Covid, I haven't planned anything. I guess I could but I know it's hard to buy a drink at the bar or sightsee, I definitely don't wanna catch Covid from one of the slots either.Back to the review;)We celebrated my daughters 21st birthday and got a room in one of the Skylofts.Now I know in Vegas their is a lot of nice hotels to choose from. We wanted something fancy and nice and enough room for everyone to party and sleep comfortably.We booked this one because it had 2 bedrooms and lots and lots of space!!We were floored when we arrived. It is absolutely beautiful and the entire staff treated us like royalty. We had our own concierge. She cleaned for us each time we stepped out, even arranging our shoes and cosmetics and putting flowers on our pillows. The hotel room was a 2 story, beautiful polished floors, maybe travertine or marble? The decor throughout was lovely. The bedrooms had their own bathrooms with steam shower, soaking tub, TV in the bathrooms, top of the line body wash and soaps from Paris I think.The beds were comfortable and the pillows were nice and fluffy.We were welcomed with sweets and chocolate covered strawberries.Cleanliness was a ten plus.There was a pool table, an espresso and coffee machine with delicious coffee and a separate seating area to enjoy your coffee with a view of the city.We had everything we needed, even priority check in.This was an experience none of us will ever forget. Worth every penny!!They also offer limo service from the airport and to anywhere else we needed to go. We did use that for the ride to the restaurant.I'm very humble and basic so this was something that totally blew my mind enough to experience and want to do it again once this pandemic winds down and it's safe for me and my family.Price paid 5 years ago for one night was $1500.00Worth every penny, I highly recommend!May book again once Covid is stomped for good, I miss you Las Vegas!!

With the MGM Grand just recently being sold to Blackstone Group, I hope nothing changes in terms of quality and service. With the MGM Groups attempt to make a big splash in the Japan Gambling Market the company was forced to take a huge financial move recently by literally selling off some of its most popular and valuable properties.If anything else, thanks for all the good times!

I always look forward to my stay at the SkyLofts ! Lea does a great job looking out for us and making sure we are comfortable. Brittany, down at the pool complex is without a doubt the best cabana attendant out there (well, maybe she has some competition with David, LOL). And Randall our butler make sure all our in-suite needs are taken care of. Great staff, great property, looking forward to coming back soon!

Awesome rooms but a couple design flaws in the one we were staying in. First, the pool table room was too small for the pool table. Certain shots were impossible because you didn't have the space to navigate. People actually play pool ok MGM, it's not for decor. Second, the staircase was smack dab in the middle so all the first floor rooms encircled it. So instead of having some relatively large areas to congregate, you had to split up into small groups...not ideal when you're in Vegas tryna party.Then the alcohol situation: I guess they require you to source all your alcohol through them and an insane marked up price. That's a bit ridiculous but hey, no one spends this much on a room to complain. Stupid rule though. I'm split between a 3 and a 4 star review but the rooms were really nice. The design flaws may not exist in every single one too so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

Fantastic service and beautiful lofts. Loved the foosball table, the great views, and the B&O sound systems in every room. The staff is incredibly customer focused and polite.

The butler service is without a doubt the best experience. Every butler has been amazing. Each time I've called for service or something didn't work in the room they came in and helped. They are gems. My 4 stars is the room itself; for 2,500 a night the air conditioner shouldn't be making so much noise. Turn on the water and the sound is so loud. The pipes definitely need to have remodeling done. I was finally able to turn the AC off and allll night heard the AC from the Sky loft next door. MGM needs to put some money to remodel this place. They are too well known and charge too much to give crappy rooms that need work. Beside that, the individual who work there are amazing. Bravo to them and their incredible hospitality.
