A look inside the Skylofts at MGM

MGM Grand recently introduced "Skylofts" as the latest penthouse rooms at the world's largest hotel. I just saw the suites featured on TravelChannel last night as a matter of fact, so I thought it was time to share the info with the world. Besides the gorgeous suites and spectacular views, one of the coolest aspects to this $10k a night room is the 24-hour personal butler, spa butler and a $430,000 Maybach (that's a car) for your personal use to be driven around the city. Scha-wing!
