LAS VEGAS, Feb. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- It's award
season and MGM Resorts International is celebrating several
prominent awards from Forbes Travel Guide and U.S. News &
World Report – both globally respected leaders in reviewing and
ranking luxury properties – as well as The Knot, a leading brand
for wedding planning professionals.
"These prestigious recognitions are such an honor for our team
members," said Lilian Tomovich,
chief experience officer for MGM Resorts International. "The
independent review processes validate our commitment to go above
and beyond to create fantastic and memorable experiences for our
guests every single day."
Forbes Five-Star Spas
For the first time, The Spa at ARIA proudly
joins the elite collection of Forbes Five-Star spas. This marks MGM
Resorts International's second spa to be recognized with this
prestigious honor, along with ESPA at Vdara, which has
earned a Five-Star rating for its third consecutive year.
To be considered for this award, Five-Star spas must provide an
extraordinary experience from the moment guests book an appointment
until they depart. This includes impeccable guest service as well
as ensuring all amenities and public areas are in pristine
condition.
Forbes Five-Star Restaurants
Demonstrating their continued brilliance as veterans on the
roster of Five-Star restaurants are Joël Robuchon Restaurant
at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, as well as Le Cirque and
Picasso, both at Bellagio Resort & Casino. Joël Robuchon
Restaurant has achieved a Five-Star rating for 10 consecutive
years, with Le Cirque and Picasso being recognized the past three
and six years respectively.
Restaurants earning a Five-Star rating go through a rigorous
evaluation and training process and must reach the highest levels
of service including exquisite food and presentation.
Forbes Five-Star Hotels
Forbes Travel Guide continued to crown MGM Resorts International
with the highest honors again in 2019 by awarding Five-Star ratings
to ARIA Sky Suites for the seventh year in a row;
SKYLOFTS at MGM Grand for 10 consecutive years; and MGM
Macau for the fifth time in as many years.
Reserved for the most outstanding and iconic properties,
Five-Star accommodations must provide an extraordinary stay with
virtually flawless service and amazing facilities.
U.S. News & World Report
U.S. News & World Report ranks the best hotels
in the country based on an analysis of industry awards, hotel star
ratings and user ratings. In addition to earning a Forbes
Five-Star rating, ARIA Sky Suites was crowned the #1 Best
Hotel in Nevada, #1 Best Hotel in
Las Vegas and #32 Best Hotel in
the USA by the organization.
SKYLOFTS, ARIA and
Bellagio also placed in the top ten for Best Hotel in
Nevada and Best Hotel in
Las Vegas.
The Knot Best of Weddings Hall of Fame
The Wedding Chapel at ARIA and Weddings by Mandalay
Bay had their own "big days" as they were ceremoniously
inducted into The Knot Best of Weddings Hall of Fame for
2019. Inductees represent the top wedding professionals a
couple should consider when planning a ceremony and were carefully
selected after an evaluation of hundreds of thousands of
vendors.
