    Cute Halloween display 10-25.
    Kimberly K.

    MGM is definitely the most beautiful/fanciest casino out of all three Detroit casinos. MGM charges for parking when there's an event going on downtown unless you're Pearl status or higher. It's a bummer because the parking is free at the other two local casinos. The steakhouse at MGM is excellent. I had a ribeye cooked to perfection. You'll pay some $$$ but that's expected at a high end casino steakhouse. The hotel is very nice. Rooms are modern, clean, and spacious. Again, expect to pay quite a bit even on a quiet weekday ($300 and up) for just their basic room. For the most part MGM is completely smoke free except for special designated rooms. You won't smell any smoke unless you go on the designated smoking rooms. For me I just don't have any luck here. The times I've come up here I've lost my money quickly. If a casino wants to get you to come back they need to offer better perks and MGM hasn't really made the juice worth the squeeze as the saying goes. If you're looking for glitz and glamour this is your place. If you're looking to stretch your dollar and have more of an authentic Detroit experience check out Hollywood Casino in historic Greektown.

    Celebrated our daughters 21st Birthday with family at the casino! We parked in the garage, FREE, then headed inside to the rewards desk where daughter signed up for a card and got $10 in free play for her bday! She even got a free spin at one of the kiosks. After playing a bit we all headed over to eat at TAP. The food and staff were amazing! We ended the night at the bar, and watched the live entertainment! Amazing night, highly recommend! There were 9 of us at the table to eat at TAP and they made us put it on one bill + 18% gratuity.

    Wish I could give this 6/5 stars if I could. Exceptional, amazing property that offers free parking which many places don't. Fantastic food options, and the staff seems happy and treats you with amazing customer service. Good service in the industry is hard to find these days. Poker room is phenomenal and professional. Hotel is great too, but expensive on the weekends. I travel to make this my primary destination. Amazing job staff!

    Front desk with my package from door dash and the same woman saying she's not responsible

    The customer service is piss poor. I've never been to a hotel that won't ring you or hold your delivery from door dash or Uber Eats, and instead lets anyone just take your stuff or they keep it for themselves. As per my experience with my Walgreens delivery from door dash. It literally has my room number on the order when I place it. And I was spending over $100 for the second night in a row at the D Prime steak house for just myself. Didn't realize it was too much to ask for them to hold a package delivered for me until I was done with dinner on the way to my room. Won't ever stay at this hotel again, in Detroit, that's for sure. I'm an MGM member too. Disappointed and highly do not recommend. The walk is too far from the conference center - .7 miles - which yes, doesn't seem far for the body but is too far for DETROIT. And uber each way is $10-$16 and a long wait.

    It is a very nice hotel with a casino. It's very clean and the shower in the room was the best shower I have ever had in my room. They have garage parking or you can do valet parking. There are a couple of different restaurants you can choose for food. The staff was very nice. Greg W, who works in the casino, is awesome. He went out of his way to find me coffee, and I appreciate that so much. They were in the middle of a remodel when we were there, but there were still plenty of games to play. I hope to be back.

    Located in downtown Detroit. There's a self park garage located to the right of Casino. This MGM Grand is not as big as The Las Vegas chain, but all the perks are still available. The food court is available 24/7 and is a great one stop shop for all kinds of food. Bring your luck and A game for a night of adult fun to win some money.

    The room was beautiful, with a nice view of Downtown Detroit. Nice bars/ restaurants to dine in.

    Very nice hotel with a great location and great service. However, the Casino was noticably "tight".

    Ask the Community - MGM Grand

    Do casino have Bingo?

    Unfortunately they dont

    Do they have Keno live and/or video?

    I think it’s live

    Are they still on strike?

    Unsure at the moment. ...just don't take MGM's word on anything if you don't live close by. - You'll be sorry you did. I might suggest looking at Detroit newspapers online to get honest information about what is currently going on there.

    Is the casino open thanksgiving day?

    Yes. 24/7 365 days.

    Do the hotel rooms have bathtubs?

    Some just have stand up showers besides the jacuzz suites.

    Blackjack in person dealer rather than machine or video?

    Yes. Real live dealers!

    Are alcoholic drinks complimentary while gambling?

    No not in Detroit casinos. Only Vegas that I know of.

    Is breakfast included?

    Palette opens Monday and Tuesday at 4PM. Wednesday through Saturday 11AM. Sunday 9AM. I do not believe dining to be included with lodging. Good luck, hope you need an armored truck service to haul your winnings home!

    We have never been here at all and not too sure on what to wear. We're going to the Wolfgang punk restaurant. What would you recommend We wear?

    Wolfgang Puck is the nicest restaurant at MGM. We "dressed up" when we went. There are casually dressed diners also. Many use their comps to pay for the meal.

    What are the parking options? Is there valet, if so how much?

    The options are self parking or valet. The valet is complimentary.

Located in an old downtown office building with a four-story atrium, they've converted the offices on the first 5 or 6 floors into hotel rooms. The rest of the building is converted into residences ... and nice ones at that. We were here for a Tigers game on a nice warm Friday night. The hotel and surrounding area were really jumping. Hotel staff was friendly and accommodating, if a litte overwhelmed on a game day ... the first room they assigned us was already occupied. After straightening that out, it was pretty smooth sailing. Nice appointments in the rooms, comfortable bed, great views of the baseball park. Valet took care of the car, so we could just walk to the game and not have parking problems. There is a dining facility off the atrium (Preseley's Kitchen & Bar), so once you're here you can stay. All in all a nice setup and visit ... just keep in mind you're downtown and near a MLB park ... so for sleeping at night, it is very noisy.

This property is housed in the 1925 Metropolitan Building, a stunning Neo-Gothic "Jeweler's Building" that sat vacant for nearly 40 years. Seeing it restored to its former glory rather than being demolished is a win for the city.  The entrance lobby and the grand stairway to the second floor are phenomenal--the restoration team clearly put a lot of heart into preserving the marble and the ornate details. Because the hotel has to conform to the original historic footprint, the rooms are unique and oddly shaped. It was a refreshing change of pace to stay somewhere that broke out of the usual "cookie-cutter" hotel mold. My room featured a long internal hallway, a small kitchenette, and enough windows to provide a fantastic view of the Detroit skyline.  Check-in was seamless, and the staff were excellent throughout my stay. I initially considered subtracting a star because my room lacked a steamer, but the breakfast service won me back. The made-to-order omelets and the yogurt granola station were top-notch, and that high-quality start to the day made up for any minor room omissions. If you appreciate architecture with a history and a bit of character, this is definitely the place to stay in Detroit.

As soon as I entered the room and saw its condition, I turned around and went back to the front desk. I explained that I was not satisfied and could not stay in the room. The staff member told me there were no other rooms available and advised me to contact Agoda regarding a refund. I followed those instructions and contacted Agoda immediately. Because I had to find accommodations at the last minute, I ended up paying approximately double for another hotel. I was especially disappointed because this property was advertised as renovated. Based on the room I was assigned, that description did not match what I personally experienced. To make matters worse, I am now having to go through an extended process trying to obtain a refund even though I checked out immediately and never stayed in the room. Travelers should know about my experience before booking. Had the room been in acceptable condition or another room been available, this could have been handled very differently. Unfortunately, neither was the case, and I cannot recommend this hotel.

The location is definitely the highlight, it's right next to Tigers Stadium, close to Ford Field, and within walking distance of the NBA arena, plus tons of great restaurants and bars nearby. If you're in town for a game or event, the location is hard to beat. That said, the hotel itself felt small and a bit cramped. The room was on the smaller side, and the bed wasn't particularly comfortable for a hotel at this price point (around ~$350/night). For that cost, I expected wayyy more space and comfort. One downside was the hotel bar,I couldn't even get a seat and didn't realize you needed a reservation, which was frustrating and took away from the experience.
