The Hotel opened in 2003 as a smaller, nongaming alternative to the attached 3,300-room Mandalay Bay. The 1,100-room property has a separate entrance, larger rooms and the penthouse Mix nightclub and restaurant.
The transformation is a collaboration between MGM Resorts and the Morgans Hotel Group, which owns the Delano brand.
