We decided to try something other than a hotel room for a recent trip to Vegas. We booked into The Signature at MGM Grand - condos connected via walkway to the MGM.

The arrival at the front desk was our first clue - no big long Vegas line ups, dealing with staff who really didn't care if you were checking in or not. We were greeted promptly and provided with all the information we needed.

The suite itself was very nice; only comment we would make is that they should provide kitchen soap and towels to allow for cleanup as we opted to not have daily housekeeping service.

Apart from that, it was very comfortable and we were treated very well. Will never stay in a regular hotel in Vegas again!

After staying in approximately a dozen different hotels in Las Vegas over the years, from the old days at Circus Circus, to more recently Treasure Island, Ceasars Palace and Monte Carlo, we have found a new place to call home while in Las Vegas.

Our stay was from October 23 - 26. We booked through a private owner on ebay. He was very gracious and the rate was about 40 % less than the hotel website or expedia when all was said and done.

Upon taxi arrival from the airport we were directed from the gated entrance to Tower 1. We had a late arrival and were told our room was on the 12th floor. We were escorted up by a very polite bellman who took plenty of time to explain the details of the Jr Suite in detail. As with all of the other service at the hotel, his was first class.

The room was amazing. A great bed. HUGE bathroom with walkin shower and jacuzzi tub, including flat screen tv. Full kitchentte including toaster, blender, stove, etc. Nice flat screen tv, couch, chairs etc. Our room did not have a balcony.

Everything about this property was fantastic. One minor glitch on the last day when we tried to request a late checkout. Since we booked through the owner we had to call a different number and leave a request, but our call was returned within an hour or two and our request granted.

For those who say the walk is to long to MGM...get over it. I timed it at about 5 minutes to the MGM mall and 8 minutes to the casino itself. A short walk by Vegas standards. If you are headed north on the strip or to Paris, go out the front gate, down Harmon and through the Miracle Mile shops. Going this way is no more than a 15 minute walk to Paris.

We loved this property and will return on our next trip to Vegas. Feel free to send any specific questions. Enjoy your stay

There are 3-4 basic things that I look for in a hotel. Location, room, service and amenities. This hotel is outstanding on all counts. I booked via the website. Remember this is not a hotel but condo apartments that are owned by 3rd party owners but managed by MGM. This is not a casino hotel but trust me you are better of staying here than at the main hotels at the strip.

Location: Great location. Just behind MGM it is connect to MGM via a walkway. it takes a few minutes to get to MGM and then inside MGM a few more minutes past all the restaurants to get to the casino. I preferred this as compared to other hotels which always looked extremely crowded. Every Vegas hotel will require you to walk to room through the casino. No such problem at Sig at there is no casino. You have best of both the worlds. I was walking thru other hotels, MGM, Venetian, Palazzo and between the hours of 4-8 PM there were literally 50 people waiting to check in, taking upto 1 hour. When I got to Sig, how many people were in queue. ZERO. Check in took all of 2 minutes.

Room: Really good. I was in a 1 BR suite. There was a full kitchen area, living room with sofas and a flat screen TV, a full bath. Then the bedroom also had a huge bathroom a really large king sized comfortable bed and another flat screen TV that comes out of the work desk. Pretty cool. I found the shower area a bit lacking as I was expecting a better shower but really does not matter. I am clutching at straws here :).

Service: Outstanding. I got to the hotel on a Saturday not knowing it was Madonna night and the hotel was almost full. I had paid a pretty high price, almost 300 for Sat night, must be due to this. When I got in I found out they had upgraded me to a 1 BR suite from a studio suite. My plans had changed and so for Sunday I had made a different reservation (sunday nite rate was 200). The lady at the front desk, Michelle, upgraded my for Sunday also. She is one of the smartest front desk staff I have met in almost any hotel in the US. Very helpful. They have a free valet service. I had rented a car from the airport and was going to return it to the Dollar location at MGM. I asked the valet about where it was, and he told me there was no reason I had to do it. They took care of it for me, I simply had to go to the concierge and sign a paper. Thats it.

Amenities: There are 3 Signature towers. I was in tower 2 which had a cafe. I believe tower 1 or 3 has starbucks. There is 24 hours in room dining and housekeeping. Free wireless (its included in the $20 resort fee that is mandatory per night. They have a pool and a really great gym at tower 3. The gym has brand new equipment and each one linked to a personal TV. Plus u can also use all the facilities at MGM.

Overall: Fantastic stay. For those of u who have been to Asia know that service in US hotels is far from satisfactory. But this hotel totally debunks that myth. The product is great and service is great. Its a bit pricey for Vegas standards, at about 200 a night, but its still not too bad a price. Whenever I come back to Vegas this is the only hotel I am going to stay at.

Having a hotel fetish is hard since I like the best places.The room was beautiful with a nice but unfurnished patio ,although the building I was in had no restaurant. or bar.
So at 1 am- I called to see if I could still get food in the restaurant 2 buildings away.They assured me I could so I went there and even though they were open for food they said no after I walked there .
Then they asked my most hated question! Who did I talk to? Who did they think I talked to ---MAdonna , who's concert was the very best. by the way.
They suggested room service. I really came to Vegas to sit in a hotel room. NOT
The bed was the worst I have slept on in many years.I called the desk in the am to see if I could change rooms They seemed unaffected by my diccomfort and no room change occurred.Basically they said all the beds were the same.
If you really want to stay at Signature bring your own bed and food.Have fun.It is still Vegas .I can't wait to get back to Bellagio!!!
