Recognized worldwide as the ultimate Las Vegas entertainment destination, MGM Grand today revealed designs for its new rooms and suites.

Underway this week, the $160 million remodel includes all 3,570 guest rooms and 642 suites in the hotel’s main tower and is expected to conclude by September 2012. The initial set of redesigned rooms will be complete by the end of November 2011.

“Our new rooms complement MGM Grand’s incredible collection of accommodations,” said Scott Sibella, president and COO for MGM Grand. “This is one of many exciting announcements on the horizon, all of which will solidify MGM Grand’s position not only as an entertainment destination, but as a premier hospitality experience.”

Featuring warm, yet vibrant designs and color palettes with contemporary furnishings, the new room and suite designs create comfortable and functional spaces within a sophisticated setting.

Created by the talented team at MGM Resorts International Design, the remodeled Grand King and Grand Queen guest rooms showcase a stylish combination of interior finishes and accents, creating a modern sensibility with an inviting ambiance.

For guests seeking additional space for entertaining and relaxing, a variety of one and two-bedroom suites also will be redesigned, several of which feature expansive outdoor terraces with sweeping views of the famed Las Vegas Strip.

In keeping with MGM Grand’s commitment to sustainability, the newly remodeled rooms and suites incorporate environmentally responsible elements including LED lighting; improved thermostats and solar shades to better manage temperature and guest comfort; upgraded faucets and showers; and bath amenities that are 100 percent biodegradable.

Guests are invited to visit www.TheGrandRenovation.com for additional information and updates about MGM Grand’s new rooms and suites.

BOULDER STATION COMPLETES HOTEL REMODEL

Stylish rooms and suites offered for an exceptional value

The 300 guest rooms and suites at the AAA Three Diamond Rated Boulder Station, just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip off Boulder Highway, now sport a contemporary boutique feel resulting from a top-to-bottom interior remodel. Surroundings include new wall coverings, fixtures, furnishings and carpet that perfectly suit both leisure and business travelers. Nightly rates begin at only $29.

The rooms were re-designed to be reminiscent of a simple Ralph Lauren style with a modern aesthetic twist. Standard guest rooms have a clean and fresh look using earthy browns, blues and gold with pops of red. Suites feature a similar look, taken to a higher level, which is comfortable and fresh featuring rich woods and two-tone drapery. Bathrooms now sport a more modern and luxurious look with new granite countertops and light fixtures.

Other guest room amenities include:

40-inch plasma televisions
Beds with pillow top mattresses and triple sheeting
Computer desks and high-speed Wi-Fi
Room service
Built-in custom closet

Artwork was custom designed and commissioned for the rooms by Las Vegas artist Greg Miller. Pieces are meant to convey a nostalgic “Americana” feel while serving as a subtle reminder to have a good time while in Las Vegas. Miller’s art is featured in businesses and hotels worldwide, and in private collections held by celebrities including Jessica Alba.

The guest room project follows similar remodels completed in the past few years of common areas including the Feast Buffet, The Broiler and the poker room.

Boulder Station is located at 4111 Boulder Highway, Las Vegas, NV 89121. For more information or to make reservations, call (702) 432-7777 or (800) 683-7777; or head to www.stationcasinos.com.

Bellagio Unveils Newly Redesigned Guest Rooms

AAA Five Diamond Resort Enhances Experience with Fresh, Elegant Designs

Poised to set a new standard in luxury accommodations, Bellagio unveiled a fresh, elegant collection of newly redesigned rooms this week. Each of the three distinct color palettes was carefully created to further enhance the AAA Five Diamond guest experience at one of the world’s most iconic resorts.

“We want guests to feel inspired from the moment they step off the elevator,” said Randy Morton, president and chief operating officer of Bellagio. “The incredible combination of vibrant, yet warm, colors, beautiful botanical imagery and the overall crisp ambiance should set the tone for a very special experience.”

Created by the talented team at MGM Resorts International Design Group, the new rooms reflect an updated, elegant feel pairing modern conveniences with the warmth of home. Three unique designs elicit a distinct sensibility based on the colors and patterns utilized throughout each concept. The Resort King Rooms feature either an indigo and silver combination or a green tea and plum palette while the Resort Queen Rooms welcome guests with an amber and butterscotch motif. All three designs also are offered with the popular Lakeview option, overlooking the breathtaking and majestic Fountains of Bellagio.

The three color schemes incorporate the essence of Bellagio through botanical macro-photographic images displayed in the rooms and guest hallways, many of which were created exclusively for the hotel.

Providing a streamlined and contemporary focal point within each room, the dresser and connecting mirrored wardrobe are made of a deep, rich eucalyptus topped with a marshmallow smoke stone. Within this centerpiece, guests will find eight spacious drawers, a fully stocked mini-bar, a tray of snacks and novelties and a media connectivity hub.

The new room design creates enhanced functionality with the addition of benches at the end of each bed, brighter lighting in the bedroom and bathroom and a full-length mirror in the foyer. Guests also will enjoy the comfort of an ergonomically designed desk space and chair as well as two plush armchairs for those moments of relaxation.

Ensuring guests enjoy a restful sleep, each of the redesigned rooms features the luxurious new Bellagio at Home® mattress, developed by Serta®. The cashmere-covered mattress provides continuous support and temperature adjustment throughout the sleep cycle, making guests feel as comfortable at Bellagio as they would in their own home.

Convenient amenities can be found at every turn including a 40” mounted flat-screen television; a bedside iHome docking station; a centralized media hub designed to accommodate a variety of digital devices; electrical connections on the bedside lamps; and a laptop safe in one of the nightstands.

In keeping with Bellagio’s commitment to sustainability, the newly remodeled rooms incorporate environmentally responsible elements including: LED lighting in corridors and guest rooms providing 60 percent greater energy efficiency; organic carpeting primarily made from wool and furniture made from eucalyptus, both renewable resources; a new double towel bar in the bathroom for increased ability to dry and reuse towels; and a 180 percent improvement in air circulation from the previous room.

Bellagio began the $70 million remodel in June and anticipates all 2,568 Resort Rooms in the main tower will be complete by mid-December.
