MGM Hotels Are Now Bookable with Marriott Points
The new Marriott-MGM partnership is finally live. MGM Resorts announced its switch to the Marriott Bonvoy loyalty program back in July 2023 after dropping World of Hyatt. Eight months later, MGM properties are now available to book through the Marriott Bonvoy reservations system, meaning members can earn or redeem points for stays.
This is a welcome addition for Marriott Bonvoy members headed to the Las Vegas Strip. Previously, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas was one of the few Marriott options on the Strip; with the addition of the MGM portfolio, there are nearly 10 properties.
Not all is lost for Hyatt members and the once-hefty Las Vegas Hyatt portfolio, though. Hyatt added the Rio Hotel & Casino (with more than 2,500 rooms) to its offerings, and is currently renovating the property into a Destination by Hyatt hotel.
For now, here's what you need to know about this major loyalty program swap. Plus, learn how you can take advantage of the chance to use Marriott points in Vegas, or enjoy Marriott Bonvoy elite status benefits at an MGM property.
Marriott Bonvoy redemptions start at an incredibly low 5,000 points per night.
If you’re looking for the cheapest redemption among these newest additions, it’s most likely at the Excalibur Hotel & Casino, where you can often find some 5,000-point nights.
