Delano Las Vegas (formerly known as THEhotel) is a 45-story 1,118 room luxury suite hotel. It is owned and operated by MGM Resorts International. It is located within the Mandalay Bay complex on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. It was renovated and rebranded as the Delano Las Vegas on September 2, 2014, under a partnership between MGM and Morgans Hotel Group.[1]


Historically, all rooms in the hotel were suites of at least 750 square feet (70 m2). Each suite comprises two rooms. Floors 39-41 (marked 60-62 in elevators) house Penthouses, which range from 1,500 to 2,500 square feet (140 to 230 m2). There is also a single Presidential Suite, named "HP", that is over 4,500 sq ft (420 m2). There are also "deluxe" suites available. While similar in style to the hotel's traditional rooms (single room), they are located on the Penthouse level and feature upgraded sheets, bath products, and other amenities not found in the standard suites below.


The hotel is home to an Alain Ducasse restaurant called "Rivea" and a lounge called "Skyfall" at the top of the hotel.[2]



History


On May 23, 2002, the Mandalay Resort Group announced plans to build a 1,122-room all-suite hotel tower. The 41-story tower would connect to the company's Mandalay Bay resort on the Las Vegas Strip. The new tower's target clientele was attendees to the resort's Mandalay Convention Center, scheduled to open in January 2003. The tower would cost between $200 million and $225 million, with groundbreaking scheduled for September 2002, and an opening expected for October 2003.[3]


In September 2003, Mandalay Resort Group announced that the tower's then-scheduled Thanksgiving opening would be delayed to late December 2003.[4] The company also announced that the tower, located northwest of the main resort,[5] would be named "THE hotel at Mandalay Bay". Mandalay Resort Group spokesman John Marz said, "We put some names out in front of the public and tested their response. THE hotel at Mandalay Bay is all about style. It's fresh and new." The tower would have its own porte-cochère, check-in area, restaurants, employee uniforms, and spa, all separate from the Mandalay Bay resort.[4] The tower was topped off on October 17, 2003,[5] and Mandalay Resort Group announced that the tower's name would be spelled "THEhotel at Mandalay Bay".[6]


The hotel hosted more than 100 local reporters for a media preview the night before its official opening on December 17, 2003.[7][8][9] Although the gold-paned, 43-story tower had the same exterior appearance as the main resort, its interior design was entirely different.[10] The company stated, "While Mandalay Bay represents an idyllic tropical paradise, THEhotel embraces modern architecture, contemporary design and comfortable surroundings."[6] The tower, with 1,118 rooms, brought the Mandalay Bay's total room count to 4,762.[9] It offered the largest standard suites in Las Vegas.[11][non-primary source needed] The new tower employed approximately 700 people.[6] In January 2005, the hotel was among other establishments to win AAA's Four Diamond Award.[12][13]


In 2006, the lettering at the top of the tower changed to "THEhotel" to distinguish the property. Formerly, the lettering was identical to the "Mandalay Bay" letters at the top of the original tower.


In 2011, the hotel became one of the few Las Vegas Strip hotel properties to allow dogs.[14] Later that year, Travelocity included the hotel on its list of the top 10 hotels in Las Vegas, based on customer reviews.[15]


On August 6, 2012, MGM Resorts International announced the rebranding of THEhotel into the Delano Las Vegas. All of the suites at the hotel were redesigned, along with new bars, lounges, restaurants and nightclubs.[16]


The Delano opened on September 2, 2014.[17]
