Once ready, the first phase of the five-star MGM Grand Ho Tram will offer 541 guestrooms, a conference centre, a gaming area comprising 90 live table games, 500 electronic games and VIP facilities, and a variety of recreational, F&B and spa facilities.

The second phase of MGM Grand Ho Tram will incorporate another tower with 559 guestrooms, and an additional 500 electronic games.
