Signature MGM Grand Jr. Suite or Mandalay Bay Deluxe Room?

Hi Guys,



I am going to Las Vegas for Labor Day weekend and we have the opportunity to stay at either the Signature MGM Grand or Mandalay Bay. I am 38 and my gf is 32. We don't mind walking. We plan on spending at least a couple of hours a day at the pool and prefer excitement to peace and quiet. If you have stayed at either or both I would appreciate your feedback! Thanks in advance for your help!Signature MGM Grand Jr. Suite or Mandalay Bay Deluxe Room?
hey guys. im a little younger than the two of you, but im a local here in las vegas. from reading what you guys are looking for, i would say the mandalay bay is a way better choice. the MGM is a large hotel with honestly, nothing inside it to do but gambling. and yes, they do have an "ok" pool. the only good thing i can say about the MGM, is that its pretty much in the heart of the strip. the mandalay bay on the other hand... is a very nice, exciting hotel with alot more to do. and since you guys dont mind the walk, it would be better. the mandalay bay is on the far end of the strip, but the pool is AMAZING, the rooms are great, and you wont have one dull moment in the hotel itself. i hope i helped and you guys have a fun time when you get here!! enjoy!
I would definitely say Mandalay Bay, I have stayed at both and prefer Mandalay to MGM, although they both have their good and bad points. MGM has the lion habitat and a huge selection of restaurants, Mandalay has a nice selection of restaurants as well but Strip Steak and RM Seafood (both at Mandalay) are probably the best restaurants I have eaten at in Vegas. Mandalay also happens to have a nicer pool and seems like a more friendly casino. If you happen to choose Mandalay, ask for a room on floors 60, 61 or 62, I always stay on 62 and it's quiet and has a private elevator. Signature MGM Grand Jr. Suite or Mandalay Bay Deluxe Room?
Both are within 1/2 mile of each other. Mandalay Bay is further south on the strip but you can walk to many places. Those you can't walk to are easy to reach by taxi.



The MGM has one of the best buffets in town. I have heard that the suites are very nice and enormous, but haven't had an opportunity to stay. The Mandalay Bay is exceptionally luxurious. They have one of the best pools in town and is definitely a great place to see and be seen. It's more than a pool. It's three pools and a wave pool with a sand beach. You'll forget you're in Vegas and think you're on some tropical island. Maybe not, but it is nice.



Given the choice, I would stay at the Mandalay Bay.


Well both will offer you more peace and quiet than excitment but there is probably more excitment at Mandalay but Signature is closer to the Strip Excitment. The room at the Signature is bigger than Mandalay and will have a kitchen if this is important to you. The pool at Mandalay is more grown up and seems to have less children. I guess I am not really helping you here.
I think Mandalay Bay is going to be the place for you! It will have more of the enviroment that you want, and when you want to see more of the strip, you can take the tram to the Luxor, or Excalibur then walk to the MGM Grand or NYNY or take a quick taxi down The Strip to Planet Hollywood or Caesars.

Have fun!
