Skylofts at MGM COTAI, now honored with a Five-Star rating for the fifth consecutive year, continues to represent the pinnacle of refined luxury through its distinctive loft-style accommodations atop the resort’s M Tower.

Meanwhile, the Forbes Five-Star Imperial Court at MGM MACAU offers an elevated interpretation of Lingnan cuisine that celebrates the culinary heritage of Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, and Hakka regions.
