I previewed the updates during an MGM-hosted reception at IMEX 2025, where leadership outlined the design vision and renovation strategy. The hospitality throughout the event was polished and professional — a strong example of MGM’s capability to host high-level business gatherings and VIP receptions.
Why this matters for business travelers.
MGM Grand is one of the most active meeting and convention hotels on the Las Vegas Strip. The main-tower redesign directly benefits business travelers and event attendees. The rooms are brighter, quieter and far more functional — particularly for guests who need a restful space between conference sessions or work commitments.
The hallways feel more serene, giving the tower a calm, retreat-like ambiance. Suite expansions also provide more flexible layouts for working, hosting colleagues or staying productive during multi-day events. Combined with MGM Grand’s meeting facilities, dining venues and entertainment offerings, the renovation strengthens its value as a reliable choice for corporate groups, incentive programs and conference attendees.
