Aria Resort Fee 2026: $55 a Night, $165 for Three Nights
Aria's resort fee is $55 a night, before tax. (aria.mgmresorts.com, updated Aug 26, 2026; verified Nov 12, 2026) MGM Rewards members with Gold status or higher can have it waived if they book direct under their own name.
What the $55 covers
The resort fee includes six items. Aria's terms page states them in one sentence:
"The resort fee includes: In-room wireless internet access; unlimited local, domestic long distance (the 50 United States and DC) and toll-free calls; access to Paramount+ with SHOWTIME On Demand via in-room television; airline boarding pass printing; digital newspaper and magazine access; and 24-hour cardio center access for guests 18+. Amenities, such as cardio center access, are subject to availability and guest demand. *ARIA Sky Suite guests receive additional amenities, inclusive of exclusive access to Sky Pool." (aria.mgmresorts.com, updated Aug 26, 2026; verified Nov 12, 2026)
Three of the six items are long-distance calls, Paramount+ with SHOWTIME, and boarding pass printing. Use none of them, and the $55 still appears on the bill.
Who gets it waived
The waiver is for MGM Rewards members with Gold status or higher, and it comes with conditions. Aria's terms page states the waiver in one sentence:
"Daily resort fees will be waived (i.e., removed from the bill at check out) for eligible members with Gold+ Tier Level status with eligible reservations (subject to eligibility and other terms and conditions available at https://www.mgmresorts.com/en/mgm-rewards/daily-resort-fee-waiver.html)" (aria.mgmresorts.com, updated Aug 26, 2026; verified Nov 12, 2026)
The waiver terms page states the conditions in full:
"Applicable daily resort fees will be waived on up to two room reservations per trip when an eligible member books direct, under their name, with MGM Resorts International and his/her eligible MGM Rewards account number is attached to such reservations. To be eligible, must be a member with Gold+ Tier Level status at time of stay. To redeem, the eligible member may be required to visit the Front Desk during their stay to confirm eligibility and request waiver of the daily resort fee (e.g., if member advances to eligible Tier level during stay). Not applicable to reservations associated with convention, trade show and/or group sales unless billed to the qualifying member. Subject to MGM Rewards Program Rules available at www.mgmrewards.com/rules." (mgmresorts.com, Nov 12, 2026)
The tier benefits footnote adds one more condition the waiver terms don't mention: "Not applicable to reservations for all-inclusive room packages." (mgmresorts.com, Nov 12, 2026)
The waiver has no end date on either page. It is a standing benefit for members with Gold+ status at time of stay, not a dated promotion.
Aria vs Vdara: the same $55, two more items at Aria
Vdara, another MGM Resorts hotel, charges the same $55 a night before tax. Vdara's terms page states:
"Daily Resort Fee. A daily resort fee of $55.00 plus applicable tax will be applied to all reservations. The resort fee includes: In-room wireless internet access; unlimited local, domestic long distance (the 50 United States and DC) and toll-free calls; access to Paramount+ with SHOWTIME On Demand via in-room television; airline boarding pass printing; digital newspaper and magazine access." (vdara.mgmresorts.com, updated Aug 26, 2026; verified Nov 12, 2026)
Vdara's fee covers five items. Aria covers those same five, plus 24-hour cardio center access for guests 18 and older, and exclusive Sky Pool access for Sky Suite guests. Same $55. The catch is in the fine print: Aria's terms page says amenities, such as cardio center access, are subject to availability and guest demand. Vdara's fee paragraph states no such limitation.

Aria covers two more items: 24-hour cardio center access for guests 18 and older, and exclusive Sky Pool access for Sky Suite guests, subject to availability and guest demand.

What the official pages do not state
Neither the Aria terms page nor the resort fee waiver page states whether a complimentary room pays the resort fee. (aria.mgmresorts.com, updated Aug 26, 2026; mgmresorts.com, verified Nov 12, 2026)
The Aria terms page does not print a tax rate. It states only "plus applicable tax." (aria.mgmresorts.com, updated Aug 26, 2026; verified Nov 12, 2026)
The numbers, before tax only
The official site does not print a tax rate, so the totals below are before tax only. One night: $55. Three nights: $55 x 3 = $165. Seven nights: $55 x 7 = $385.
Parking is a separate charge, not part of the resort fee. Registered guests pay $20 a day for self-parking, Monday to Sunday. Non-guests pay $20 Monday to Thursday and $25 Friday to Sunday. Valet is $40 a day for guests and non-guests, Monday to Sunday. (mgmresorts.com, updated Dec 18, 2024; verified Nov 12, 2026) Aria's parking rates are listed beside the rest of the Strip's on our Las Vegas parking fees page.
| Charge | 3 nights | 7 nights |
|---|---|---|
| Resort fee, before tax | $55 x 3 = $165 | $55 x 7 = $385 |
| Self-parking, registered guest | $20 x 3 = $60 | $20 x 7 = $140 |
| Self-parking, non-guest | $25 x 3 = $75 (Fri–Sun) | $20 x 4 + $25 x 3 = $155 |
| Valet | $40 x 3 = $120 | $40 x 7 = $280 |
| Fee + self-parking, guest | $165 + $60 = $225 | $385 + $140 = $525 |
| Fee + self-parking, non-guest | $165 + $75 = $240 | $385 + $155 = $540 |
| Fee + valet | $165 + $120 = $285 | $385 + $280 = $665 |
Non-guest self-parking for 3 nights assumes a Friday-to-Sunday stay. A Monday-to-Thursday stay would be $20 x 3 = $60.
Over three days, valet costs $60 more than self-parking for a registered guest ($120 − $60 = $60) and $45 more for a non-guest ($120 − $75 = $45). Over seven days, valet costs $140 more than self-parking for a registered guest ($280 − $140 = $140) and $125 more for a non-guest ($280 − $155 = $125).
Registered guests get in-and-out privileges within the same parking type across MGM Resorts Las Vegas destinations within the same 24-hour period. Non-guests get no in-and-out privileges. Nevada residents get the first 3 hours of self-parking free, except during special events, with a valid Nevada driver license.
