Monte Carlo becoming Park MGM

The 3,000-room Monte Carlo in Las Vegas will undergo a two-year, $450 million makeover that will create a new luxury brand for MGM Resorts International and bring the NoMad Hotel concept to the Strip.

MGM and the New York-based Sydell Group announced that work on the transformation of the property, which will become known as Park MGM, would begin this year and be completed by the end of 2018.

The Monte Carlo won’t close during the project and that workers will move floor by floor during the course of construction. Some public areas will be closed as work progresses.  The final name change will not occur until work is close to completion and changes can be made to websites and room-booking search engines.

The 32-story Monte Carlo opened on June 21st of 1996
