This Will Be the First Smoke-free Casino Resort on the Las Vegas Strip

The Park MGM and NoMad Las Vegas will soon open their doors once again. But, when they do they will welcome guests with one major change: Both hotels — which are located in the same building —will become the Strip’s first fully smoke-free casino resort.

“Opening Park MGM and NoMad represent significant milestones, as they are the last of our properties to welcome back employees and guests alike,” Bill Hornbuckle, MGM Resorts CEO and president, shared in a statement. “The last six months have presented extraordinary challenges and I could not be prouder of the MGM Resorts team for the tireless effort required to get us here. There is much work ahead as we remain focused on the health and safety of our employees and guests, but this is an important moment for us.”

As the Strip’s newest resort, Park MGM will open with limited amenities. However, guests will still be able to visit Eataly, dine in Bavette’s Steakhouse and Primrose, and can even still lounge by the pool. Meanwhile, NoMad Las Vegas will also open but with limited hours of operation across its venues.

Upon reopening, The Park MGM and NoMad Las Vegas will now be smoke free, meaning it's the first smoke-free casino resort on the Strip.

1. I would think they'll all become non smoking with maybe a smoking section.

The Aruba casinos all reopened smokeless, same with the CT casinos.

2. the airport has enclosed plastic bubble areas

where smokers can smoke and gamble.

I suspect that wouldn't be very aesthetically pleasing in the casino proper, but maybe they can come up with some sort of smoking area with gambling, particularly the large casinos.

4. About time.

Given that only a small minority of people still smoke, I don't think the casinos have any clue how many nonsmokers simply don't go in them because of how they stink.

A separate and separately enclosed room for smokers would make the most sense.

5. They should have done this years ago.

Smokers should not be the default.

6. Seems strange to me, the smoking situation you describe in Las Vegas

I can't believe that there are so many places where people can smoke. Good grief, 20 years ago I went to a conference in Minnesota and was shocked even back then that smoking was allowed in my hotel's lobby.
