Luxor Hotel and Casino: A pyramid in the desert?   Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • I've stayed at Caesars, Treasure Island (twice), Rio, Monte Carlo, Bourbon Street (don't ask), Excalibur (first time, yikes), and the Luxor a couple of times.

    Location? The south end is the nicest, so it's good. It's connected to Mandalay Bay (you can pretend you're staying there ;) Who stays at the north end of the strip? Freaks.

    The buffet is very good for the price ($10.49 for lunch!) and it's laid out spaciously.

    Unique Qualities: Don't go comparing it to the Bellagio or the Venetian. Look at the difference in price! Stay in the towers. They are nicer, bigger, and cleaner than the pyramid rooms. The pool area is nice and the spa is great ($20 gets you 24 hrs of usage, incl the fitness area). Check-in can be long. I've seen the line ups but I've always checked in at odd times so I haven't experienced it.

    Don't ask me about the shows, I was too drunk :) The Luxor, in my opinion, is the best value for your money on the strip. Now I'll be staying at the Luxor again in a few weeks...yeehaw!

    Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino: The Mandy Bay   Check Rates
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Satisfaction:
  • Mandalay Bay is a trendy hip hotel at the south end of the strip next to the Luxor. Beautiful rich people all around. Try o fit in ;)

    Unique Qualities: Wow. Nice beach! It boasts the most unique pool area in Vegas. Must be all that sand in there. No fence jumping here. Bring your key (to prove you're staying there). It keeps the riff raff out. Is that good?

    The Venetian: The hotel with a water problem   Check Rates
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Satisfaction:
  • What a hotel. What an entrance! Don't trip. One of the nicest hotels in Vegas. It has everything. Shops, restaurants, sexy people. They even let us in..

    Unique Qualities: Try out a gondola ride through the canal. The gondolier will sing for you. Funny ours didn't know the words to "Funky cold medina"
