Hello Travel Ruby, would you ever consider (in the future) to review the Casino Hotels in Macau? Its now the gambling capital of the world (overtaking Las Vegas) they have a Venetian, MGM Grand etc. I’ve never been myself, but its always interested me. Love your channel by the way!
We stayed at Park MGM for a week at the end of July, loved it! We had a great room on the 26th floor, the safe didn't work when we checked in, they sent an engineer the same day and gave us $100 dining credit and $100 beverage credit for the inconvenience. Just fixing it would have made us happy enough!! The pool area is really nice, great to chill. Would and will stay here again - recommend!!!
Just came back from Vegas, stayed at MGM Grand. It’s amazing how different the atmospheres are between Park and Grand, and they’re just across the street from each other. Found Park to be much cleaner, smelled nicer, less crowded and less crazy overall. Next time will stay at Park
Ruby, your editing is 100%! You do such a great job at giving us the info we need, hi lighting the best there is to offer and keeping the videos fun and fresh! Vegas is my happy place and you make it better!
Great review Ruby as usual!!!! We just stayed at the PARK MGM in the beginning of July and we loved our stay there. The pool was awesome and went there every morning to enjoy the sun and the Vegas heat. Primrose was awesome!!! We went there for breakfast a couple of times and the service and food was excellent. The rooms were comfortable and we got upgraded to a strip view room which was nice. One of the main reasons we stayed there too was the fact it was totally non smoking both hotel & casino which is rare in Vegas. We will definately stay there again!!! Keep making those great reviews we love watching them!!!
Park MGM Grand is highly underrated, definitely my go-to place to stay on the strip! You really can't beat the amenities, cleanliness and location for the price.
Just stayed at Park MGM. Many positives! Staff was incredibly kind-bell, valet, check in-all friendly and welcoming. Felt at home! The restaurant selection is plentiful for a hotel this size-I was happy with the selection and quality of food. I also appreciated the smaller scale-casino floor was not packed and queuing up for taxi was never more than two/three people and there was a constant flow of taxis. We were there on a busy weekend with concerts and sports, and it was the perfect location to venture out from. I also loved the color scheme and the decor of the main floors. A few things to note: the room is basic and expectations need to be managed; This is not the Palazzo or the Cosmo. Great water pressure, nice furnishings, and comfortable beds. I could hear our neighbor opening their blinds every morning, but shockingly could not hear anything else. There was some dust in the corners, carpet has seen better days, and the silicone in the bathroom on the door needed some TLC, but all other tiles and fixtures were clean. I definitely did not get grossed out. Random but one pillow case was super scratchy, just swapped it out and was fine. I would definitely stay again if I need a more affordable option.
@@nicolepentz6002 I will admit that I didn’t gamble in the parkmgm casino, but the tram to the Bellagio and the easy walk to the Aria made it very much worth it
This is one of my favorite channels. There are a lot of Vegas travel videos but most of them feel like ads. THIS is an informative ad. Before this channel I think I just came to Vegas blindly blowing money but not really knowing what I’m doing. I’ve learned so much about Vegas from this channel. I can’t wait to apply what I learned from you. Also I’m doing elevator dances every chance I get, thanks to you.
I'm not even planning a Vegas trip anytime soon, but this is still one of my favorite channels. I also just had to comment how much I LOVE the stripey maxi dress, Ruby! Your sense of style is always so on-point.
I have stayed at park mgm with a free room offer. I thought the room was fine. No complaints. But I wanted to mention how times have changed with the food in vegas. Now it is all about the food and expensive eating. Back in the 70's it was all about cheap food.
Only a few places have the good deals of yesterdecades. Station Casino's have a deal after a certain time. I miss being able to get the food cheap. Now with MGM rewards, you actually get more points buying food than gambling.
My biggest regret is not going to Vegas in the 1980's when my Grandma always wanted me to come along on her vacations there - we lived in Canada. I had no interest. I'm now so in love with going there, and went for my first time just a few years ago. I now live in L.A. so drive over once a month for 4 day holidays. But I wish I had been in the early 80's with Gran, to have seen all the long demolished resorts back when they were up and running.
This video makes me rly excited for my trip to Vegas in Nov 2024. Will be my 2nd visit here and decided to stay at Park MGM due to the overall rating and price. Based on this video, I'm feeling more confident that i made a good choice 👍🏾. Thank you!
Hey Ruby, we’ve been watching your guides for 3 months before coming to Vegas. Thanks for all the great advice. You are by far the best on RUclips for Vegas reviews.👍
Great review! Entry level room reviews are so relevant and useful. Thank you Ruby! I have been in the casino and Eataly, and have never stayed there, but it’s on my list of places to stay, thanks to your review. Being smoke free is awesome and being next door to the fabulous Crack Shack is a real plus.
My wife and I stayed here early 2024 for the Sofia Carson concert, and this video was detrimental to us choosing to stay here, so I figured I would travel back in time and say thanks on the day you first published this Ruby!
I stayed there not long after the rebranding and at that time most of the restaurants were not in or open, but because of the newness and lack of food amenities, meant the room rates were quite low, like in the $39 to $59 range if memory serves. I liked it. It was a good Thanksgiving weekend.
Great review Ruby! (and Mr. Ruby). My wife and I absolutely love Park MGM. Especially how Starbucks is just outside the main elevator lobby. The pools are great (the nachos from the bar are MASSIVE), and the pools are nice and calm. Very clean. The beds are just comfortable as hell and I sleep great on them. You summed it up perfectly when you said it's a property that most folks sleep on. Totally agree. This is a highly underrated property!
Thanks for all of your entertaining videos, so glad I got to see Park MGM very nice looking, laid back property! Always love seeing pool options, so THANK YOU TRAVEL RUBY !!!
As always, knocked it out if the ballpark. Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Ruby. Stayed at Park MGM a few times. Love the place. Smoke free. Pool area is great. Great options all around. Viva!
Park MGM was awesome. The room was the only negative but I loved how organized the Uber drop off and pick up was. The air inside was crisp and they had plenty of food options. The best part was the pool. Super chill and relaxing pool area with 3 options so you can hide from the sun. Definitely recommend.
To add onto the thin doors, you can clearly hear people next door to you. I’m assuming since it looks so empty, you were there on a weekday. You can hear normal conversations in the rooms connected next to you. My fiancé and I were woken up by someone on a phone call next door
I just got back from a 5 day stay at Park MGM, and its my new favorite casino to stay at. Being smoke free makes it so much more wnjoyablw to walk around! Loved all the options in Eataly. The pool was fantastic. My friends and I did a day bed for $75 on a weekday, which felt like a good deal. Nomad Library restaurant was the most incredible dining experience I have ever had in my life. I cannot wait to stay at Park MGM again.
Thanks for the great video, Ruby. We live next door in City Center, and love going to the Park MGM for dinner and shows (at Dolby Live). Our favorite restaurant in the Park MGM is Bavette's Steakhouse...you'll have to try it! 😋
I've stayed several times when it was Monte Carlo, and loved it because it's a smaller casino,and my favorite thing is the garage escalator goes directly to the lobby/elevators to rooms,instead of walking thru the whole damn casino! Would like to stay at Park MGM.
I’m surprised people never mention Off The Record, the club inside Park MGM. I went there while Silk Sonic was doing their residency. The place was packed and tons of fun!
We stayed at Park MGM in our most recent visit in the nomad rooms, and we LOVED it! Closets are bigger too! The property being smoke free was the big draw for us but I also really loved the pool. I also just love the decor style of the hotel, it feels like a boutique hotel. Your review was spot on as always!! 😊
Love Park MGM. Location, lower minimums, clean casual feel, nice bars and restaurants, shows, sports venues, easily get to Aria, Belagio, Cosmo, NYNY, no smoking!
Have stayed here 6-7 times since it was renovated/name change. It really is a great location, especially if you are looking to go to events at T-Mobile. The Casino is also smoke-free, and they have some good food choices(Bavette's, the Italian Market). It really is a solid choice for value/location/quality.
Park MGM use to the Monte Carlo...So even tho you said it opened in 2017, the property actually opened in 1996. They did a good job on the renovations. You mention T-Mobile Arena, it's a very cool atmosphere during the game days. If you have a chance to go to a game, go - Since I am a Packers fan, it's like going to Lambeau.
Just booked here (all nights comped) for July 2023 for our 20th anniversary. 1st thing I did was come to see your review. I'm glad you liked it. We haven't actually been in Park MGM yet. We spent a good full day at MGM Grand, and part of a day at NYNY. I'm super excited about this trip now.
I love the pool!!! And, my drinks were big, strong and comped!!! And, I loved the non-smoking....we visited other casinos and I was always ready to come back to smoke free Park MGM. Awesome review❤❤
Mr and Mrs ruby I went to Vegas this weekend and your RUclips helped make trip memorable. Thank you for being awesome and informative even though PAC is rolling in his grave it was still entertaining. Stayed at MGM Grand’s stay well and it was 10/10
Hi Ruby & Mr. Ruby, New viewer from Wisconsin GO PACK!! Love Vegas, your videos & reviews. Your maxi dress was awesome too. So happy to have found your channel. TFS Stay safe & ✌
We stayed at the NoMad, which is the top 4 floors of the Park MGM, just two weeks ago. Everything you said about the resort is 100% accurate. The non-smoking casino was fantastic! We are planning our trip for next year and will definitely check out Best Friends! So many choices, so little time! Thanks for the great review!
Park is our go to place. We regularly get good comps and love the fact that it is smoke free. We certainly like to splurge from time to time and go to Vdara (**** another smoke free property****) but the money we save here allows us to go upscale on our diners. Primrose and the coffee (Lavazza) is an excellent way to start the day off.
If you stay at Nomad, there is also another pool only accessible to Nomad guests. Best Friend isn't cheap. It just appears cheap to today's $100/person/meal strip standards.
Haven't stayed here, but my husband and I love Eataly and the casino. We stumbled upon their Learn to Play Craps lesson at 11am on a Friday. I think it might be every day? I've wanted to play at a table forever but was too intimidated to walk up to a table to learn! It was seriously the BEST.
Great video Ruby, and 100% correct on every point! We love Park MGM, it's affordable and easy to navigate, has great restaurants and a relaxed vibe, plus it's attached to the Park Theater. On our next stay at the Park we'd like to try Nomad for a couple of nights, the attelier rooms look incredible!
I really liked the Park MGM. I had that same type of room when I stayed there this past 9th-11th. I hadn't stayed there and I really liked all it had to offer. I was there to see Silk Sonic at the Dolby Live so of course the proximity was great, but I was definitely pleasantly surprised for staying there because that's where the venue I was going to was located.
100% agree! I stayed here for 1 night for a concert a few weeks ago and it exceeded my expectations. Staff is so friendly and kind and it’s super comfy. My only critique was the same as yours, the walls are too thin. I also wouldn’t stay in this room type for a longer trip because I LIVE for a good bathtub on vacation but for a short, overnight stay, I definitely would return. The shower is nice and powerful. Primrose is delightful as well. I will have to try that Best Friends place. :)
I am staying there in June. Coming in town to bowl the USBC Women’s National Tournament at South Point. I was able to score a comp room for my entire stay from our play last summer. I chose it because of it being nonsmoking. Looking forward to my stay there.
Been there twice have another trip in Nov. Love the ZERO smoking policy, just nice not to smell like an ashtray. Love the the offerings like the affordability and it's a bit more chill than the other Go Go Resorts.
HI RUBY, I LOVE THE WAY YOU GIVE US THE TOUR AROUND PLACES AND DETAIL ON FOODS ETC, GOOD INFORMATION AND LOVE THAT YOU PROVIDE PRICES COST OF ALL YOU EXPERIENCE, NICE AND THANKS
I just got home from an eight day stay at the Park MGM and it was fantastic. It was clean, well located and had great dining options. Not only was it right next to the T-Mobile Arena (I was there for UFC 279 and the Canelo vs. GGG fight), it had Crack Shack next door, a CVC five minutes walk away and Denny's across the road for a cheaper eating option. My one negative was the check in when I arrived at 3pm and the self check in didn't work. I then had to wait in line for 30 minutes and then another 45 minutes when my room wasn't ready. After seeing numerous people receive keys without issue I then lined up again and was finally given my room. Apart from that it was a very pleasant stay at this underated hotel/casino. And the no smoking was awesome!
I stayed there in 2021 for my daughter's wedding. Loved the location of it.the tram wasn't going due to covid but we enjoyed it. The non smoking and the cvs close by were a plus.
WOW Thanks Ruby for the room tour. Very nice!!!! I always wondered about how nice they look. Hey I just heard on KTNV that Ballys will become Horseshoe Las Vegas!! I can't wait to see the changes. I know you will keep us posted. It been 70 yrs since the first Horseshoe Casino opened downtown. I'm really excited about seeing the MSG Sphere coming to Vegas. Thats going to be massive! I see U2 will be the opener for it. Thanks for sharing all your super videos. Your the best!!! :) You rock!
Love your videos Mr ruby you do such a good job with the music And Ruby - you are such a joy And love ParkMGM and you so caught the vibe Had a room like this with a view of the roller coaster and the arena - so loved it Also dig the target across the strip - great prices and selection and friendly staff
Has anyone ever stayed in Vegas around November and December ...wondering what the weather is like then. Thanks ! PS ...I love Park MGM ....staying there again.
Yes. We head to Vegas every year. One of our trips was in late November and will probably never do that again. About 7 years ago our party of six were staying on the strip and decided to head down to Freemont. Well once the sun went down we froze and had to buy jackets. The women all bought sweaters. We're all from Canada and are used to a colder climate and thought Vegas was always warm so shouldn't need a jacket. While the sun is out, November weather is quite nice during the daytime hours. It was a learning experience about night time in the desert in the month of November. Just don't forget to have a jacket or a hoodie if you venture out at night. We've been to Vegas at different times of the year and since we don't use the pools, we've opted out of going in the summer months also. The heat is brutal. We're booked for late September at NY, NY.
Been a minute since I have stayed there but still an elegant, lovely casino. I miss the Sports Pub in the back and do remember the rooms being small, thanks Mr and Mrs Ruby.
I stayed in April and it was nice! At that time my only grip was the pool has lots of shade coverage in the morning from the surrounding buildings and at that time of year that made it a little too cold to enjoy until later in the afternoon - but to be expected! Smoke free is definitely a life saver and a refreshing break from the rest of the casinos on the strip if you're a non-smoker :)
I stayed at Park MGM for 3 nights this past January and I thought it was fine for what I paid. It's a great location and along with the convenient CVS there is also a Target Express across LVB which I really appreciated. Just avoid the Denny's that is right there... not good in my experience. I really liked that Park MGM was so close to NYNY, Ex, MGM, Aria etc. It was super easy to take a lazy Sunday morning walk and explore some places that I really hadn't planned on visiting. Also, for those who like off strip casinos there is a free shuttle from Park MGM to Palace Station.. just something to consider (I'm someone who prefers to be off-strip but I got a great deal at P-MGM... the room was essentially free with my flight, just paid the resort fees) I would gladly stay here again if I got the right deal. Just know you're not going to find cheap tables, cheap food or cheap drinks at this property. They fancy themselves a premium offering and they charge like it.
@@rikkitikki1256 My comment was specifically about the Denny's directly across LVB from Park MGM. I thought it was overpriced and wasn't up to my expectations of Denny's food.
I stayed at the Park MGM in April and it was great. Love the location, that it is non-smoking, and tram! Used the MyVegas reward for 2 comp nights and tied it in with a paid reservation. Would def stay there again!
For a single guy (like myself) the room and the closet space was fine. I smoke so I went across to the NYNY to gamble and have fun. Bathroom and bed were great as was the rest of the room.
I love your videos, Ruby!!! Your voice is perfect to just listen to while I work and Iearn so much about Vegas while doing so ahaha. I have a trip planned next week and I'm super pumped!
I stayed in the basic 2 queen room back in May, and it looked almost identical to your room but just a smidge bigger. Similar couch, table, tiny little tv console table set up. Park MGM has the potential to be one of my favorite resorts, except for one thing..... the closet/storage situation! I was traveling with two other people, and there was literally not a single place to store clothes. The closet was too small to fit more than a few hangers (and certainly could not fit even a closed suitcase). There were a few tiny drawers in the closet, that could fit underwear or other small things, but no dresser or drawers in the room. So with three people the room quickly became covered in exploding suitcases, piles of clothes and stuff all over the table. It's too bad because I LOVE everything else about that place.
I have stayed at the Park MGM and I agree with most of your comments. I love that it's non-smoking hotel and casino. Where I don't agree with you is on the pool area. Where it use to be a fun and lively area with three different types of pool area's to visit. Now it just a sleepy boring area with two rectangle pools and a square pool.
Staying for four nights in May for my birthday! We have a comped room - I am hoping to get an upgrade to the room you have in your other video. Thanks for all of your videos!
Thanks for the insight Ruby! Loved the production of the video too (so thanks Mr Ruby too!) We love Park MGM We’ve been staying here every time we go back to Vegas (since I think 2018) and it never disappoints. The 2bed room is our preferred, and last we were there we were on floor 25 facing T Mobile arena too and had an amazing view (like the one on the video!) Waylay, Starbucks, the Gaga place. It’s all so well decorated and the smoke free… amazing! You walk on there and it’s like you’re smelling fresh air for the first time. I definitely recommend it to everyone now and like you said in the video, people are sleeping on it! I love to hype it up and I haven’t heard complains yet! And the pool! It’s so peaceful (the 18+ one at least). Lovely video, thanks again… and I can’t wait to be back at Park MGM!
Just stayed here last month for the Usher concert! Pros: Great customer service! Starbucks being right at the base of the elevators. Easy navigation. Great location on the strip. Cons: Rooms wasn’t clean when we arrived. Has to call front desk TWICE before someone came to clean. The safe was broken- was fixed right away. The air conditioning in the room was horrid. In 115 degree July Vegas heat, the air was cool never cold. It was hard to get comfortable. Also the hallways are dark and narrow. Overall I really enjoyed stayed at the hotel for the concert!
Best Value Hotel in Vegas. Nice Pool, Fun Casino and Easy to get to Aria, Bellagio and Center Strip via the Tram. I didn't LOVE The food options but that didn't stop me from having a great time.
I always call it the "Pay-to-Park MGM." Went there once to see Lance Burton back when it was still the Monte Carlo. I think they had a brewpub and we had a beer or two. Haven't been back. Burton's last show there was in September 2010, which gives you some idea how long it's been.
Thoughts on Park MGM?
Would you stay here?
Hello Travel Ruby, would you ever consider (in the future) to review the Casino Hotels in Macau? Its now the gambling capital of the world (overtaking Las Vegas) they have a Venetian, MGM Grand etc. I’ve never been myself, but its always interested me. Love your channel by the way!
Maybe
We are actually staying here now!! August 23! Got the 2 free nights with the MyVegas! Love the room and property!!
@@Luis.Emilio Ooo! We have that same coupon with MyVegas - what kind of room did they put you in??
Enjoy!!!
It's not too bad. I stayed in their studio suite last year. The location is good even got a handpay in the casino.
We stayed at Park MGM for a week at the end of July, loved it! We had a great room on the 26th floor, the safe didn't work when we checked in, they sent an engineer the same day and gave us $100 dining credit and $100 beverage credit for the inconvenience.

I have a 4 night 3 day comp available to me a Park MGM but was hesitant to pull the trigger on it. This review may have changed my mind. Thank you.
I had the same thing Bro, the room was great and very comfortable.
I had the same and it was perfect! Plenty of room for my friend and I and the tram to the bellagio was convenient
Use your MGM comps elsewhere . Park ..sucked rooms sucked SMALL.. casino was boring
@@nicolepentz6002 I will admit that I didn’t gamble in the parkmgm casino, but the tram to the Bellagio and the easy walk to the Aria made it very much worth it

Hey Ruby, we’ve been watching your guides for 3 months before coming to Vegas. Thanks for all the great advice. You are by far the best on RUclips for Vegas reviews.👍
Been so obsessed with your channel for the past few months! Love learning about your Vegas discoveries!
Love that first outfit that you’re wearing, very bright colors. Looks good on you!
We love Park MGM. We stay there almost every time we come to Vegas including next month.
Great review! Entry level room reviews are so relevant and useful. Thank you Ruby! I have been in the casino and Eataly, and have never stayed there, but it’s on my list of places to stay, thanks to your review. Being smoke free is awesome and being next door to the fabulous Crack Shack is a real plus.
Love the idea of non smoking casino 🎉👏👏👏👏👏❤thank you Ruby !! ❤
Great timing. Staying here for the weekend starting tomorrow. Thanks for the review
Sooo looking forward to staying here in a couple months!! Very excited!! ❤️
Discovered your channel few weeks ago! Great job 👍 ☺️
Cheers from San Diego California
we just stayed at Park and we loved it. We said everything you did, pool was outstanding and we did very well in the casino.

Have always loved the Park and the Nomad. The Park's pool area is one of the best. Thank you for reviewing this gem!
Thank you so much for the video!! We are planning on staying at the Park the next time we are in Vegas, and I am so glad to see it up close!!!
Every time I go that's where I stayed. It so mellow it's not overcrowded.

Park MGM is one of my favourites. Very friendly, love the vibe and love Eataly. Gerry serving the cocktails in Eataly is a great guy.
Park is our go-to when we go to Vegas (2-3x/year) for all the reasons you mention. Happy to see this positive review!

I like the layout of the room and where the bed 🛌 is located ! For the “cheapest” room it looks pretty fabulous!
👍
Love Park MGM. Location, lower minimums, clean casual feel, nice bars and restaurants, shows, sports venues, easily get to Aria, Belagio, Cosmo, NYNY, no smoking!
Agreed! I stayed here on a solo trip in 2019. I will definitely stay again. It is a bonus that is non-smoking.
Have stayed here 6-7 times since it was renovated/name change. It really is a great location, especially if you are looking to go to events at T-Mobile. The Casino is also smoke-free, and they have some good food choices(Bavette's, the Italian Market). It really is a solid choice for value/location/quality.
Park MGM use to the Monte Carlo...So even tho you said it opened in 2017, the property actually opened in 1996. They did a good job on the renovations.
You mention T-Mobile Arena, it's a very cool atmosphere during the game days. If you have a chance to go to a game, go - Since I am a Packers fan, it's like going to Lambeau.
Just booked here (all nights comped) for July 2023 for our 20th anniversary. 1st thing I did was come to see your review. I'm glad you liked it. We haven't actually been in Park MGM yet. We spent a good full day at MGM Grand, and part of a day at NYNY. I'm super excited about this trip now.
I love the pool!!! And, my drinks were big, strong and comped!!! And, I loved the non-smoking....we visited other casinos and I was always ready to come back to smoke free Park MGM. Awesome review❤❤
Mr and Mrs ruby I went to Vegas this weekend and your RUclips helped make trip memorable. Thank you for being awesome and informative even though PAC is rolling in his grave it was still entertaining. Stayed at MGM Grand’s stay well and it was 10/10
Hi Ruby & Mr. Ruby, New viewer from Wisconsin GO PACK!! Love Vegas, your videos & reviews. Your maxi dress was awesome too. So happy to have found your channel. TFS Stay safe & ✌
Great presentation as usual, Exceptional video editing and the backing music as well.
We stayed at the NoMad, which is the top 4 floors of the Park MGM, just two weeks ago. Everything you said about the resort is 100% accurate. The non-smoking casino was fantastic! We are planning our trip for next year and will definitely check out Best Friends! So many choices, so little time! Thanks for the great review!
Park is our go to place. We regularly get good comps and love the fact that it is smoke free. We certainly like to splurge from time to time and go to Vdara (**** another smoke free property****) but the money we save here allows us to go upscale on our diners. Primrose and the coffee (Lavazza) is an excellent way to start the day off.
If you stay at Nomad, there is also another pool only accessible to Nomad guests. Best Friend isn't cheap. It just appears cheap to today's $100/person/meal strip standards.
Haven't stayed here, but my husband and I love Eataly and the casino. We stumbled upon their Learn to Play Craps lesson at 11am on a Friday. I think it might be every day? I've wanted to play at a table forever but was too intimidated to walk up to a table to learn! It was seriously the BEST.
Great video Ruby, and 100% correct on every point! We love Park MGM, it's affordable and easy to navigate, has great restaurants and a relaxed vibe, plus it's attached to the Park Theater. On our next stay at the Park we'd like to try Nomad for a couple of nights, the attelier rooms look incredible!
I really liked the Park MGM. I had that same type of room when I stayed there this past 9th-11th. I hadn't stayed there and I really liked all it had to offer. I was there to see Silk Sonic at the Dolby Live so of course the proximity was great, but I was definitely pleasantly surprised for staying there because that's where the venue I was going to was located.
100% agree! I stayed here for 1 night for a concert a few weeks ago and it exceeded my expectations. Staff is so friendly and kind and it’s super comfy. My only critique was the same as yours, the walls are too thin. I also wouldn’t stay in this room type for a longer trip because I LIVE for a good bathtub on vacation but for a short, overnight stay, I definitely would return. The shower is nice and powerful. Primrose is delightful as well. I will have to try that Best Friends place. :)
I am staying there in June. Coming in town to bowl the USBC Women’s National Tournament at South Point. I was able to score a comp room for my entire stay from our play last summer. I chose it because of it being nonsmoking. Looking forward to my stay there.
Been there twice have another trip in Nov. Love the ZERO smoking policy, just nice not to smell like an ashtray. Love the the offerings like the affordability and it's a bit more chill than the other Go Go Resorts.
HI RUBY, I LOVE THE WAY YOU GIVE US THE TOUR AROUND PLACES AND DETAIL ON FOODS ETC, GOOD INFORMATION AND LOVE THAT YOU PROVIDE PRICES COST OF ALL YOU EXPERIENCE, NICE AND THANKS
I just got home from an eight day stay at the Park MGM and it was fantastic.
It was clean, well located and had great dining options.
Not only was it right next to the T-Mobile Arena (I was there for UFC 279 and the Canelo vs. GGG fight), it had Crack Shack next door, a CVC five minutes walk away and Denny's across the road for a cheaper eating option.
My one negative was the check in when I arrived at 3pm and the self check in didn't work.
I then had to wait in line for 30 minutes and then another 45 minutes when my room wasn't ready.
After seeing numerous people receive keys without issue I then lined up again and was finally given my room.
Apart from that it was a very pleasant stay at this underated hotel/casino.
And the no smoking was awesome!
I have the same dress. Enjoyed your review.
I stayed there in 2021 for my daughter's wedding. Loved the location of it.the tram wasn't going due to covid but we enjoyed it. The non smoking and the cvs close by were a plus.
WOW Thanks Ruby for the room tour. Very nice!!!! I always wondered about how nice they look. Hey I just heard on KTNV that Ballys will become Horseshoe Las Vegas!! I can't wait to see the changes. I know you will keep us posted. It been 70 yrs since the first Horseshoe Casino opened downtown. I'm really excited about seeing the MSG Sphere coming to Vegas. Thats going to be massive! I see U2 will be the opener for it. Thanks for sharing all your super videos. Your the best!!! :) You rock!
Love your videos
Mr ruby you do such a good job with the music
And Ruby - you are such a joy
And love ParkMGM and you so caught the vibe
Had a room like this with a view of the roller coaster and the arena - so loved it
Also dig the target across the strip - great prices and selection and friendly staff
Great video and review as always! ❤️ I wish there were more smoke-free properties in Vegas!!
Has anyone ever stayed in Vegas around November and December ...wondering what the weather is like then. Thanks ! PS ...I love Park MGM ....staying there again.
Yes. We head to Vegas every year. One of our trips was in late November and will probably never do that again. About 7 years ago our party of six were staying on the strip and decided to head down to Freemont. Well once the sun went down we froze and had to buy jackets. The women all bought sweaters. We're all from Canada and are used to a colder climate and thought Vegas was always warm so shouldn't need a jacket. While the sun is out, November weather is quite nice during the daytime hours. It was a learning experience about night time in the desert in the month of November. Just don't forget to have a jacket or a hoodie if you venture out at night. We've been to Vegas at different times of the year and since we don't use the pools, we've opted out of going in the summer months also. The heat is brutal. We're booked for late September at NY, NY.
Been a minute since I have stayed there but still an elegant, lovely casino. I miss the Sports Pub in the back and do remember the rooms being small, thanks Mr and Mrs Ruby.
came here for the review of park mgm but my goodness. cinematography and music in this video is off the chart. keep it up!
I stayed in April and it was nice! At that time my only grip was the pool has lots of shade coverage in the morning from the surrounding buildings and at that time of year that made it a little too cold to enjoy until later in the afternoon - but to be expected! Smoke free is definitely a life saver and a refreshing break from the rest of the casinos on the strip if you're a non-smoker :)
Room's okay. The art is super cheese ball 😂
Always enjoy your content!
Hey you finally got your Aerpol Spritz 🍹🍹🍹
But I really wanted to see your big Birthday Bash & all the fun...🥂🍾🎂🧡
The lazy River was so much fun.
Easy hotel to navigate through. Used to have a great brewery as well.
I stayed at Park MGM for 3 nights this past January and I thought it was fine for what I paid. It's a great location and along with the convenient CVS there is also a Target Express across LVB which I really appreciated. Just avoid the Denny's that is right there... not good in my experience. I really liked that Park MGM was so close to NYNY, Ex, MGM, Aria etc. It was super easy to take a lazy Sunday morning walk and explore some places that I really hadn't planned on visiting. Also, for those who like off strip casinos there is a free shuttle from Park MGM to Palace Station.. just something to consider (I'm someone who prefers to be off-strip but I got a great deal at P-MGM... the room was essentially free with my flight, just paid the resort fees)
I would gladly stay here again if I got the right deal. Just know you're not going to find cheap tables, cheap food or cheap drinks at this property. They fancy themselves a premium offering and they charge like it.
WHAT? where do u get the palace station bus?
what’s wrong w dennys? i ate there before? roaches or?🤔
@@rikkitikki1256 It's at the rideshare pickup area. Opposite side from valet
@@rikkitikki1256 My comment was specifically about the Denny's directly across LVB from Park MGM. I thought it was overpriced and wasn't up to my expectations of Denny's food.
@@michaelzack5581 every couple hrs? how late it runs do u recall? not seeing anything abt it on mgm site
I stayed at the Monte Carlo on my honeymoon in 1998. I have a room with an awesome view and saw Lance Burton's show. The spa and pool were amazing.
Staying there in June!! Can’t wait! Thanks for your reviews Ruby!
Great video Ruby !!!!!....Always love your videos..keep up the good work...Can't wait to be in Vegas again !!!!!
I love how you aren’t afraid to eat big meals!!!!!!!! I live for the food segment
I stayed at the Park MGM in April and it was great. Love the location, that it is non-smoking, and tram! Used the MyVegas reward for 2 comp nights and tied it in with a paid reservation. Would def stay there again!
Love your videos so much. Been waiting everyday in preparation for our first ever trip to vegas from the Uk ❤️❤️
Most definitely. I stayed there before and will do so again. Great content Ruby.
Just came back from Park MGM. Loved the pool also and smoke free is fabulous!
For a single guy (like myself) the room and the closet space was fine. I smoke so I went across to the NYNY to gamble and have fun. Bathroom and bed were great as was the rest of the room.
Ruby!!!!! Best intro yet! Btw your dress is so cute 😍😍
I love your videos, Ruby!!! Your voice is perfect to just listen to while I work and Iearn so much about Vegas while doing so ahaha. I have a trip planned next week and I'm super pumped!
I stayed in the basic 2 queen room back in May, and it looked almost identical to your room but just a smidge bigger. Similar couch, table, tiny little tv console table set up.
Park MGM has the potential to be one of my favorite resorts, except for one thing..... the closet/storage situation! I was traveling with two other people, and there was literally not a single place to store clothes. The closet was too small to fit more than a few hangers (and certainly could not fit even a closed suitcase). There were a few tiny drawers in the closet, that could fit underwear or other small things, but no dresser or drawers in the room. So with three people the room quickly became covered in exploding suitcases, piles of clothes and stuff all over the table.
It's too bad because I LOVE everything else about that place.
Highly recommend staying in the “nomad” which is their boutique hotel, it has a chest of drawers and a closet :)
I had the same complaint. No dresser to put clothes in. No place to even put your suitcase.
I had to use the couch for my friend and I’s suitcases but I can’t imagine having another person’s stuff too!
I have stayed at the Park MGM and I agree with most of your comments. I love that it's non-smoking hotel and casino. Where I don't agree with you is on the pool area. Where it use to be a fun and lively area with three different types of pool area's to visit. Now it just a sleepy boring area with two rectangle pools and a square pool.
The quality of editing and production is amazing
Staying for four nights in May for my birthday! We have a comped room - I am hoping to get an upgrade to the room you have in your other video. Thanks for all of your videos!
Excellent overview of the Park MGM
Excellent review. Have to say your recent camera work and editing has been getting better and better. Looking forward to more!
Thanks for the insight Ruby! Loved the production of the video too (so thanks Mr Ruby too!)
We love Park MGM
We’ve been staying here every time we go back to Vegas (since I think 2018) and it never disappoints. The 2bed room is our preferred, and last we were there we were on floor 25 facing T Mobile arena too and had an amazing view (like the one on the video!)
Waylay, Starbucks, the Gaga place. It’s all so well decorated and the smoke free… amazing! You walk on there and it’s like you’re smelling fresh air for the first time. I definitely recommend it to everyone now and like you said in the video, people are sleeping on it! I love to hype it up and I haven’t heard complains yet! And the pool! It’s so peaceful (the 18+ one at least).
Lovely video, thanks again… and I can’t wait to be back at Park MGM!
Not at all a bad room. SO much nicer than the "cheapest" room at Excalibur.
You guys make very high quality videos, reviews are top notch thank you
When Monte Carlo was renovating I stayed in the same type room with same view. Nice experience. Great Denny’s across the street.
Just stayed here last month for the Usher concert!
Pros: Great customer service! Starbucks being right at the base of the elevators. Easy navigation. Great location on the strip.
Cons: Rooms wasn’t clean when we arrived. Has to call front desk TWICE before someone came to clean. The safe was broken- was fixed right away. The air conditioning in the room was horrid. In 115 degree July Vegas heat, the air was cool never cold. It was hard to get comfortable. Also the hallways are dark and narrow.
Overall I really enjoyed stayed at the hotel for the concert!
Any issue with dogs? I see that it is dog friendly. I have a room booked here but not sure I like the idea of animals having been in the room.
Nice. Thanks for keeping us updated!
I was waiting for this review, thank you so much Ruby. Your work is fantastic as usual ❤️
Best Value Hotel in Vegas. Nice Pool, Fun Casino and Easy to get to Aria, Bellagio and Center Strip via the Tram. I didn't LOVE The food options but that didn't stop me from having a great time.
I always call it the "Pay-to-Park MGM." Went there once to see Lance Burton back when it was still the Monte Carlo. I think they had a brewpub and we had a beer or two. Haven't been back. Burton's last show there was in September 2010, which gives you some idea how long it's been.
We stayed here many years ago when it was Monte Carlo. Lance Burton took our son up on stage and made him disappear! Wonderful memories.
It's SO EASY to get free parking at all MGM casinos..................get the MGM credit card
