Why People Love It

- Eataly marketplace is arguably the best quick-dining hub on the Strip
- Boutique feel that's less overwhelming than the mega-resorts

Reviewed by @maliciade9785: I stayed in this room at Park MGM and the vibe was incredible. The bold red bathroom tiles gave it such a cool, edgy feel, and the layout was perfect for getting ready. It felt cozy, stylish, and totally different from the massive, impersonal resorts nearby.
Guest Who Stayed Here Said
Reality check
You aren't booking this for the room; you're booking it to be near the Arena and Eataly without smelling like an ashtray.
- You have asthma or hate the smell of stale cigarettes
- You're seeing a show at Dolby Live or T-Mobile Arena
- You prefer a hotel you can walk across in 5 minutes vs. 20 minutes
Cleanliness & Maintenance
8
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some reports of missed dust in corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean tile and grout, but the small vanity area can get cluttered easily.
- Maintenance: Furniture shows nicks and wear; carpets in hallways are starting to look tired.
- Linens & towels: Standard MGM quality—clean but not ultra-plush. Check mattress seams upon arrival.
- Odors & scents: Fresh, clean, and completely free of the stale smoke smell that plagues every other casino.

Insider Tips

The rideshare pickup is one of the most efficient and private on the Strip (located near the lobby, not a mile away).

Bavette's has a hidden 'back bar' that often accepts walk-ins when the main dining room is booked.
- ✨
Use the NoMad hotel entrance for a quieter arrival experience and arguably the nicest lobby bathrooms in the complex.
5 things to know before you go
💡The 'red' vs. 'green' room decor is a toss-up; green feels fresher, red feels darker/moodier.
💡The walk to the Strip sidewalk is longer than it looks because the building is set back behind Eataly.
💡You can hear the plumbing from the room above you flushing.
💡The 'Stay Well' shower infuser is often empty or unnoticeable.
💡Eataly closes earlier than you'd expect for Vegas (11 PM on weekdays), so don't count on it for late-night munchies.
