MGM Grand Detroit taking reservations13 June 2007DETROIT, Michigan -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- MGM Grand Detroit, an MGM Mirage (NYSE:MGM ) property, is now accepting hotel reservations for November 1, 2007 and later. The entertainment venue will be the first and only urban gaming destination built from the ground up and will add 400 luxury rooms and suites to the city of Detroit when it opens this fall. Reservations are available via www.mgmgranddetroit.com or (888) 646-3387. MGM Grand Detroit will feature 400 lavish guest rooms, nine rooftop VIP suites and 56 opulent corner suites on the highest floors of the entertainment destination, delivering panoramic views of the Detroit skyline. Rooms will include contemporary interior design by acclaimed hospitality firm Laurence Lee and Associates and some of the most technologically advanced features in the country. Guests also will enjoy 24-hour in-room dining by the original celebrity chef, Wolfgang Puck. Nightly rates begin at $299 for the luxury king; $499 for executive and luxury corner suites; penthouse suites range from $900 to $3,000. "Upon the opening of MGM Grand Detroit, corporate travelers, meeting attendees and leisure guests will be invited to experience a new level of rooms, amenities, services and restaurants never before available in Detroit," said John Hutar, Vice President of Hotel Operations at MGM Grand Detroit. "We believe we will deliver downtown Detroit's first true luxury experience and have built our hotel and casino from the ground up to ensure our guests will be delighted and inspired at the turn of every corner." MGM Grand Detroit will feature a private valet and entrance for its hotel guests, an intentional design attribute that offers separation from the casino. The lobby will envelop patrons in a modern yet tranquil atmosphere with grandiose 20-foot ceilings, a private "LIVING ROOM" with a stunning fireplace, and a dramatic backlit alabaster wall adornment with a cascading fountain. Featuring oversized ottomans and contemporary artwork from Detroit's most prominent artists, the living room will serve as a gathering place to relax, wait for friends and business associates, or make reservations and requests via the dedicated concierge. After stepping through the comfortable lobby, guests need not look too far for decadent culinary choices. MGM Grand Detroit customers will enjoy Wolfgang Puck's signature WOLFGANG PUCK GRILLE, featuring the legend's inventive California-style cuisine. Michael Mina also will introduce two new concepts to his culinary repertoire: SALTWATER, an opulent seafood dining experience; and BOURBON STEAK, which will deliver imaginative interpretations of traditional steakhouse favorites in a modern setting. Additional hotel offerings will consist of casual dining, unique lounges including a relaxed piano-style bar, high-energy nightlife, the only resort-style spa in southeast Michigan and 30,000 square feet of meeting space. Laurence Lee and Associates is renowned for its luxury hotel design throughout the country. Their list of projects include: The Ritz Carlton, Huntington Hotel & Spa in Pasadena, Calif.; the Borgata in Atlantic City; and the Kapalua Bay Hotel in Maui, Hawaii. |
