With live entertainment, an on-site casino and 21 restaurants to choose from, The MGM Grand Hotel and Casino is the apex of the cosmopolitan standards set by the Las Vegas strip. It is the largest hotel in the United States, and the third largest hotel in the entire world, boasting culinary treasures from Wolfgang Puck and Emeril Laggasse and the MGM Grand Garden Arena. It's located in the heart of the Las Vegas strip, where energy and elegance meet just a splash of kitsch, and where grand casinos, all-you-can-eat buffets and world-class entertainers reign supreme in the desert haze.

Entertainment knows no end at the MGM Grand, where numerous boutiques, nightclubs and entertainment venues are engineered to enthrall every taste. The hotel is home to Cirque Du Soleil's critically acclaimed Ka, and you'll also find the quirky charm of TV personality Brad Garret filling the expansive estate. The Grand Arena hosts artists from Justin Bieber to Neil Diamond, and if you came with your game the casino offers slots, poker, blackjack and more. Nightclubs include a re-creation of New York's famous Studio 54, Tabu Ultra Lounge, and the unique Republic Pool Party complete with saltwater pools, a full service bar and world famous DJs.

The New Orleans Fish House at MGM is run by legendary celebrity chef and TV personality Emeril Lagasse whose dynamic personality lit up the Food Network with shows like Emeril Live and Essence of Emeril. In addition to boasting Emeril's fare, the MGM is home to Mexican, Chinese and Italian inspired cuisine whose accolades include "3 Star Michelin Guide Winner" and "Chef of the Century". After a delicious meal the rooms are ready to receive you with plush bedding, stylish design and marble bathrooms, or you can relax with the many spa services or indoor pools.

Though New York was long ago dubbed "the city that never sleeps", the endless string of restaurants and casinos in Las Vegas are ready to cater to your needs 24 hours a day. Endless buffets, overflowing drinks and carefree casinos populate this city, where you can travel the world in a day. Take a stroll past perfectly recreated skylines of New York and Paris, marvel at the 36-storey pyramid of Luxor, or experience Excalibur - a mock medieval castle complete with drawbridge and towers.

No trip to Las Vegas is complete without a visit to its two most famous attractions - Mirage and Caesar's Palace. Mirage wows crowds with a fiery, volcanic eruption every fifteen minutes and legendary entertainers Siegfried and Roy's famous stuffed white tigers, and Caesar's Palace has a moving walkway past marble staircases and Roman centurions in period dress. Visit these venues and others that distinguish Las Vegas and its world-class reputation as a gem shimmering amid the Nevada wilderness.
