In 2023, we saw the Hyatt and MGM partnership dissolve, while a new partnership between Marriott Bonvoy and MGM Rewards was announced. Details have been slow to emerge, and then we got a list of benefits for 2024 only. Now, we know what perks members will enjoy in 2025.

Let’s take a look at the details.

New Details of the MGM and Marriott Partnership

Almost immediately after ending its partnership with Hyatt in September of 2023, MGM Rewards announced a new partnership with Marriott, which included the creation of the MGM Collection with Marriott Bonvoy.

Last year, Marriott and MGM detailed elite benefits for their members, but those were only confirmed for 2024. What would 2025 hold? The picture is now clearer, as we know what benefits you can expect on your stays.

What Marriott Bonvoy Members Can Expect at MGM Resorts

Marriott Bonvoy members will soon be able to earn and redeem Marriott points at 17 MGM Resorts (about 40,000 rooms), including locations like Aria Resort and Casino, Bellagio Hotel & Casino, and The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

In addition, Marriott Bonvoy elite members will be eligible for additional perks at MGM properties when booking through Marriott. These benefits will be available in early 2024.

As a Marriott Bonvoy member, you can expect the following based on your elite status level when staying at an MGM resort:

Hot Tip:

Marriott Bonvoy members won’t be able to status match to MGM Rewards. However, they will receive a set of perks and benefits at MGM properties when booking through Marriott.

What MGM Rewards Members Can Expect at Marriott Properties

MGM Rewards members will be able to status match to the Marriott Bonvoy program.

  • MGM Gold members will match to Marriott Bonvoy Silver Elite status.
  • MGM Platinum members will match to Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite status.
  • MGM Noir members will match to Marriott Bonvoy Ambassador Elite status.

Final Thoughts

It’s good to see more details emerge about how the new Marriott Bonvoy and MGM Rewards partnership will work. While Ambassador Elite members enjoy the most benefits, those with other status tiers can still enjoy perks in Las Vegas this year through the partnership.
