"The MGM Grand top-floors Skylofts, the working MGM Forbes Five-Star tier."
Why this rank, MGM Grand Skylofts occupies the top two floors of the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino on the central Strip, opened as a separate hotel-within-the-resort in 2004 with separate elevators, separate check-in lobby, and Forbes Five-Star service standard. Forbes Five-Star recognition has been continuous since 2010. 51 suites only across the Skylofts floors; the One-Bedroom Loft at 1,400 sq ft, the Two-Bedroom Loft at 2,400 sq ft, and the multi-bedroom Penthouse Loft are the property's signature accommodations. The Skylofts' separate-elevator privacy combined with the MGM Grand pool deck (the property's six-pool complex including the Wet Republic Ultra Pool day-club) and Hakkasan Nightclub at MGM (the working MGM nightclub) produce the working Skylofts campus. Mizumi (the Wynn-relocated Japanese restaurant), Joel Robuchon (one of two three-Michelin-star restaurants in Vegas), and L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon (one Michelin star) anchor the in-house dining. Best for the central-Strip Vegas stay at the working MGM Forbes Five-Star tier within the MGM Grand resort.
Best room: Two-Bedroom Loft, 2,400 sq ft, Strip view
"Hakkasan Nightclub, multi-pool complex, the value bachelor-weekend base."
MGM Grand opened in 1993 and remains one of the largest hotels in the world by room count, 6,852 rooms across the main tower and the Signature at MGM Grand condominium-suite tower. The asset is the value tier, the entry-level rooms run 30-40% below the Wynn or Bellagio rates and the suite product (the Hollywood Suite, the Two-Bedroom Bungalow) provides working group-of-eight infrastructure at a Strip-tower-base rate. Hakkasan Nightclub (the in-house club, on the multi-storey Hakkasan Restaurant building adjacent to the casino) is the venue centerpiece, and the MGM Grand Pool Complex (six pools, including the lazy river and the wave pool) handles the dayclub-equivalent without a cabana-rate surcharge. MGM Grand is the right pick for the bachelor weekend on a budget, the working bachelor infrastructure (suite, club, pool, group dining at Tom Colicchio's Craftsteak) is present at a 30-40% rate discount versus the higher-tier competitors.
Skyloft (the multi-room flagship via the Signature tower private check-in) or Two-Bedroom Bungalow for the entry-level group option.
Skylofts is the upgrade tier, the private check-in, private elevator, butler service is the working luxury option above the standard MGM Grand rooms. Hakkasan Saturday at 11pm, the host-arranged table is the bachelor centerpiece. Craftsteak (Tom Colicchio) for the group dinner.
MGM Grand sits within our broader Top 20 Hotels in Las Vegas for a Bachelor Party list. It scored an aggregate 9.3/10 across the three editorial criteria, competitive against the field but, on a bachelor party-specific factors, the angle above is what earned its rank. For the alternatives in the same Las Vegas neighbourhood, see South Strip and adjacent. For a different city entirely, see the related lists below.
If you have already chosen the dates, our editor recommends booking the room twelve weeks ahead. The best suites with the right view orientation go first, and inventory for the popular months is quoted in months, not weeks. Suite-level rooms with private plunge pools or terraces, the ones that earn this rank, are typically the first to sell out.

MGM Grand Skylofts' case for the Las Vegas stay is the working separate-elevator MGM Forbes Five-Star tier. The 2004 property occupies the top two floors of the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino on the central Strip with separate elevators, separate check-in lobby, and Forbes Five-Star service standard.
The 51 suites only across the Skylofts floors include the One-Bedroom Loft at 1,400 sq ft, the Two-Bedroom Loft at 2,400 sq ft, and the multi-bedroom Penthouse Loft.
Forbes Five-Star recognition has been continuous since 2010. The Skylofts' separate-elevator privacy combined with the MGM Grand pool deck (the property's six-pool complex including the Wet Republic Ultra Pool day-club) and Hakkasan Nightclub at MGM (the working MGM nightclub) produce the working Skylofts campus. Joel Robuchon (the working three-Michelin-star Vegas anchor and one of two three-star restaurants in Vegas), L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon (one Michelin star), and Mizumi (the Wynn-relocated Japanese restaurant) anchor the in-house dining. The MGM Rewards points-earning at the Skylofts tier suits the MGM-aligned traveller. Best for the central-Strip Vegas stay at the working MGM Forbes Five-Star tier within the MGM Grand resort.
