The architecture of the Luxor pyramid must be seen to be appreciated. Truly incredible. You have two options for rooms at the Luxor... a Pyramid room or a Tower room. I've stayed twice in the tower rooms, and they are VERY nice. Floor to ceiling windows, nice furnishings. As of last year they had not yet converted to flat screen TVs, but this may have changed. No in-room safe. My second visit was in a Luxury Suite, highly recommended, and really not that expensive. Tower check-in was quick and courteous. Express check out is simple, from the TV in your room. If you elect to stay in the towers, note that it's quite a hike to get down to the casino. When I stayed there, the slot selection was very limited. Not a lot of machines I liked. Table games had reasonable minimums, and good availability. On a more recent visit to the Luxor casino, I found a better selection of slots, but I still prefer Excalubur (adjacent to the Luxor, accessable by corridor or tram). While I'm not a "club" person, Luxor offers great nightlife choices... LAX always seems to be where the young people party.
There's nothing like sleeping at a replica of the pyramid in Egypt! The Luxor Hotel & Casino is one of the most expensive and luxurious hotels in Las Vegas.
The hotel is designed as a pyramid with pharaohs and sphinx outside the hotel. Inside at the lobby, most of the decors are Egyptian-style.
There is also a museum of the King Tutakhamum at the hotel. We visited the museum while we were there at one of our many visits in Las Vegas.
Also, there is a place at the hotel where you can have a recording of your song. There is a fee involved and I am not sure if it already increased. You can sing inside the booth and record your own song. After recording, you can have a copy of your own CD! This is very special to some people as they have their own memorable experience being a recording star!
The Luxor Hotel & Casino also has a very nice restaurant that the ambience is like eating in the old days in Egypt. The restaurant is designed with huge logs and wells. The food is really, really good.
I can't describe my stay in the hotel because we didn't book here. We just came and visited the hotel and used some of their amenities like the restaurant and casinos.
Unique Quality: Once inside the hotel, you can see all the rooms in a pyramid-stye. The lobby is very beautiful and it looked like you are in a foreign country. Most of the staff are dressed like the pharaohs and Queen Cleopatra.
There are a lot of Egyptians stuffs inside the hotel as the motiff is Egyptian.
Directions: It is close to Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino. Located at the end of the North Strip
The Luxor Hotel & Casino is not quite as luxurious as it appears. The famed Egyptian themed casino hotel has nothing more to offer than 2 Starbucks. The hotel rooms are on the small side (smaller if you stay in the Pyramid). Take the Tower rooms if you are going to brave this place. The casino is worn down and old. The bars/lounges are never full. The pool area is uneventful and does not attract a fun crowd. Overall, the spirit in this casino hotel is as dead as the pharaohs of ancient times.
We stayed here once and it was ok. Not all that impressive, but the décor is nice and comfortable. Service was good and the room was clean.

The Luxor hotel was amazing everything about it was themed, from the giant statues leading up to the hotel to the sphinx that was the monorail. There were plenty of café’s and restaurants to choose from McDonald, pyramid café, bistro, backstage deli and the cathouse. I was in heaven because there was three Starbucks within the hotel.
Unique Quality: We had a lovely room with views of the strip and we were overlooking the airport.
The rooms were very comfortable with hieroglyphics on all the furniture and bedding.
Me and my wife stayed here as one leg of our honeymoon in September 2007. We booked a Spa Suite and I have to say it is probably the best hotel room we have ever had. Also Las Vegas is tha place to cash out on some fine rooms, since most of their income is fom the casinos, rooms are relatively cheap. I would recomend Luxor to anyone.
Unique Quality: The hotel has a lot of tourist sights and experiences, like the casino, a copy of Tut-An-Kamons grave, spa, pool, dining, shopping, shows etc. Which is all good and well, but remember that most of the hotels have similar stuff, so don't forget to check out the other ones. Luxur has indoor airconditioned walkways to Mandalay Bay and Excalibur, which I highly recomend because of the heat. Also there is a monorail but you have to wait outside in the sizzeling sun for it, so we prefered the walkways. Also remember to try the steakhouse restaurant at Luxor, it is great!
Directions: South end of the Las Vegas Strip, you can't miss the black pyramid.

Check In, on Sunday afternoon, was a MESS! I waited in a zig-zag line for WELL over an hour! When I got to the desk, eventhough I was told (over the phone when planning my trip) a cashiers check was acceptable payment, it was NOT! They sent me (lugging my HEAVY suitcases across the casino) to the cashiers cage, to get cash for payment (I diddn't PLAN to use a credit card for payment, I wish I had). I supposedly, upgraded my SMALL spa suite, to a LARGE spa suite & was disappointed. I expected a couch, coffee table, BIG TV & a view - to lounge around after a full day of site-seeing. Instead, I got a small table, with 2 wobbly chairs around it (very uncomfortable), a 27 inch TV (that was SMALL, when viewing from the bed) & a view of "THE Hotel's" air conditioners. The suite (if you can call it that) was VERY spartan indeed (I wonder how their Small spa suite was furnished) - CLEAN (good housekeeping daily), but NOT worth the $200 per night I spent. I loved the hot tub (VERY relaxing), but diddn't spend very much time in my room at all, during my trip.
Unique Quality: The worst part of my stay, was having to zig-zag my way through the casino, avoid the ongoing construction project (that completely closed off the center of the casino) several times a day, just to get to & from my room. After getting lost MANY times (inside the casino), having to ask directions from employees (who would point & say that-a-way) & retracing my steps often, due to BAD signage (that diddn't take construction into account) I finally got to know my way around, by the END of my 4 night stay.
The Inclinators were a hassle also! I was on the 10th floor & was not expecting a motion ride on every trip. People told me they were no big deal, believe me, THEY WERE! Having to hug the right wall at the start of the ride, then the left wall as the ride stopped, in order to keep from falling over, almost made me ill. The motion rides (excluding the inclinators) were LAME & outdated. The shops had all the same stuff (if you had seen one of them, you saw them all). The Carrot Top show was WAY too expensive, but always sold out, go figure...
Even with these few problems I still had a good stay. The location (being at the far side of the strip) was GREAT!! Everything (except Mandalay Bay) was to the North & 5 hotels within easy walking distance. The valet parking was very useful & the staff very friendly (other than the lady who wouldn't accept my cashiers check). The Best part, was that the Poker Room was within sight of my inclinator. I'd finish every night with their midnight poker tourney (gobbling many free drinks) & wobble my way to my room without a problem.
I chose the Luxor because I am very interested by the Egyptian theme, BUT I hear that they are getting RID of that, in the VERY near future! Glad I got to see it (at least what was left of it, half way gone) before they completely get rid of the theme.
Directions: S Las Vegas Strip
the luxor is an interesting egyptian themed hotel that is built in the shape of a glass pyramid. the luxor offers all of the amenities of a first class hotel. one plus about it's location is that you can take a free monorail to the mandalay bay casino and the excalibur.
Directions: the strip, (las vegas blvd).
Disappointing! Received a room with a view of the hotel next door and that was nothing to look at. Room seemed dirty and was poorly lit. Way too expensive for the quality of service.
Unique Quality: After flying in from the Philippines, just wanted to get to our room. However they have timeshare salepersonnel all over the casino floor. Really didn't like the hotel. Also felt buffet was overpriced for the quality and selction of food.

I'll be staying with my husband at the Luxor hotel this summer, and i was wondering what was the best: choosing a room in the pyramid ( it seems a lot of fun to take their inclined elevators, but the rooms look pretty tiny....) or choosing a room in one of their towers (they look much bigger on the Internet site, with nicer furniture.). Has anyone experienced both? Which one can offer the best view?
We'll be travelling from France, so we're really concerned with the quality of our stay!
Thanks for your help!
We had a room in the pyramid facing the Excalibur and the room was certainly large enough. Huge bathroom with separate shower and bathtub. I would probably recommend the pyramid for the novelty of it and ask for a room facing the strip though the view isn't a big deal since you probably won't be spending much time in your room.
I Stayed In A Pyramid Room Last Year And Though The Rooms Are Smaller Than In The Tower I Would Hardly Call Them Small And I Did Had A Great View Of The Mountains.
If You Do Stay In The Pyramid And Want To Use The Inclinator Lift Be Sure To Get A High Floor Because I Was On The 3rd Floor Which Uses Just A Normal Elevator And Unless You Have A Room Key You Are Not Allowed In The Inclinators Which Have A Security Guard At Every One.
I stayed in the tower closest to the Excalibur this past May. The room was very nice and I would say it was average size. The view was good out of the North Tower. The pyramid is definitely a shorter walk to most of the hotel's attractions.
Stayed in a Pyramid room, and it was nice - even though I spent very little time in it.
I highly recommend the Pina Colodas at the pool. And the spa is nice, too.

Expedia has asked for my "review" of our recent stay, I posted;
The Hotel was ok, should have expected that because of the price. There was a STRONG smell of mold & mildew in the "Halls", although the "rooms" didn't smell like it, ALL of the towels & tissues had a moldy smell. Mold on the ceiling of the showers. If you have mold allergies STAY SOMEPLACE ELSE! Buffet was mediocre. I brought a party of 15 people it was our son's 21st birthday. Day 2 we went to the nightclub "Lax" downstairs. We had "bottle service & VIP room". Our bill for 15 people came to $1099.00 with tip. I gave them $450 in cash & put $649 on my mac card. The club charged me 3 times on my mac card & the cash I paid totaling to the amount if $2,198.00! I was counting on that money for the remaining 2 days of my trip. When I discovered their error the next morning & called the hotel manager, which directed me to the club manager, which directed me to accounting, everyone kept directing me in circles & no one was responsible nor helpful! Management at the club said that the charges were "holds" which would be returned, however when I called my bank from Vegas, they said NO, they were charges! When I explained to everyone that they had taken the last of my finances & my family & I were in Vegas with NO MONEY left, they said, sorry we can't help you. THANK GOD FOR THE FAMILY I BROUGHT WITH ME. They helped us with our final 2 days, & when I returned home, my bank challenged the charges & a week later I got my money back & paid my family back.... STAY SOMEPLACE ELSE!
