MGM Resorts Reopening

MGM Resorts International announced its planned June 4 reopening of Bellagio, New York-New York, MGM Grand Las Vegas and The Signature, following the closure earlier this year of all of its U.S. properties amidst the coronavirus crisis. At opening, amenities at all properties will be limited. As demand for the destination builds, additional venues within these resorts will open and other MGM Resorts properties on The Strip will reopen.

“Our hearts go out to everyone in the communities where we operate, and around the world, who has been personally impacted during this time of crisis,” said Bill Hornbuckle, MGM Resorts’ Acting CEO and President, “As we plan for these openings, the health and safety of our guests and employees is at the forefront of all we do. Getting many of our employees back to work and welcoming guests through our doors once again will allow us to do what we do best – entertain. The team is ready and we can’t wait.”

Key Initiatives include;

  1. A physical distancing policy will be implemented, with floor guides serving as reminder
  2. For areas where physical distancing presents challenges, plexiglass barriers will be installed, or other measures will be used to reduce risks
  3. Standalone handwashing stations designed by MGM Resorts conveniently located on casino floors
  4. Contactless Check-In through the MGM Resorts App will allow hotel guests to go through the check-in process on their personal devices, minimizing interactions
  5. Guestroom Attendants will wear masks and gloves while cleaning each room and will change gloves between guestrooms
  6. In addition to increased and enhanced routine cleaning of guestrooms and public spaces based on CDC guidance, electrostatic sprayers will be utilized in many large public spaces so that disinfectant is applied efficiently
  7. Digital menus will be available to view on personal mobile devices via QR codes in the company’s food and beverage outlets
  8. To minimize groups congregating while they wait, restaurant guests receive text message notification when their tables are ready
