The Borgata in Atlantic City is now part of MGM, and they are offering status matches to Borgata Rewards including to premium MGM M life Rewards members.
Status matched members receive their first stay free at the casino hotel.
And don’t forget, Hyatt Gold Passport Platinum members get MGM’s Gold status. Diamond members in Gold Passport get elevated MGM M life Rewards Platinum status.
Hyatt Platinum is given out pretty freely, and even comes with Hyatt’s own co-brand credit card also also with United’s premium credit card that bundles lounge access. So those cardholders can get a free hotel stay in Atlantic City.

Premium members of Caesars Total Rewards, Tropicana Atlantic City, and Trump Casinos are also eligible.
TripAdvisor lists the Borgata as the number one hotel in Atlantic City.
The offer is available to people who aren’t already My Borgata Rewards members, complimentary room is based on availability, and you must use it within 90 days of comping over to their Black Label status.

The Wife and i are planning on visiting the Borgata next weekend specifically to match our Mlife status. I did verify a few days ago that this offer is still available since MGM took over full ownership of the Borgata on 8/3/16. I have Mlife platinum and the Wife is waiting on her Mlife gold which takes 7 – 10 days to process. You must now call Mlife to status match from Hyatt to Mlife. You cannot get an Mlife member card sent to you. You need to visit an Mlife hotel to get the member card. Seeing we don’t have Mlife cards, we will try to get the status match @ the Borgata by pulling up our Mlife status page via the web on our phone. Hopefully that will work. I’ve read data points that it will work.
Actually not everyone but only those who are 21+ 🙁
For those of you that have not checked out the Borgata, it is my favorite casino/hotel on the east coast. Very well done and a lot of things to do for the non-gambler as well. Rooms were remodeled in the last five years. Buffet is very good as well.
Thx for the article, Gary.
Could you explain a bit more on how to status match to which program and how it works?
I’m Hyatt Diamond, so do I need to match my Hyatt Status now to “MGM M life Rewards Platinum status” and then match MGM M Plat to Borgota? And how does it work?
I don’t see any submit form for a match here: https://m.theborgata.com/casino/my-borgata-rewards/black-label-trade-up
Thx again 🙂
Nice find, Gary. Do you know if the complimentary room is just for one night or can it be used for a two or three night stay?
@ Gary — Awesome, I can match my Trump status!
I can confirm that they will accept if you show them status on your phone by pulling up mlife status. I did that today.
So no one can confirm the max number of nights that can qualify as a stay? How about a year? Seems like a pretty crucial piece of info to me…
@ Gary I’d like to know as well.
