Mirage Resort & Casino

A great stay

By far, one of the best offers I ever received was for the Mirage this year. We were given a room at $100 a night, plus $50 in resort credits a day per room. Since we enjoy several of the onsite restaurants, this was a steal. I arrived late, so I didn't deal with the check-in process, but I can tell you security doesn't let you get to the elevators without a key! The hotel is starting to become one of the older kids on the block, but you wouldn't know it from the modern, clean rooms. The beds were very comfortable, and housekeeping does a great job as well. We did check out the pool one day, and either it's heated and the heater is broken, or they generally rely on the sun to heat things up and it was October. Either way, we froze a little bit and didn't stick around. That probably was the only quarrel with the property. We tried out the buffet, coffee stand, yogurt shop, and Burger restaurant, and they were all really good. The casino is enormous, but table limits still are a little higher than I like. Plenty of video machines to choose from. And there is a tram to TI next door, which may or may not be worth taking depending on if you have to wait for it! The location is superb, with many big time casinos nearby. All in all, this was a great stay - I highly recommend the property.

On the Strip

The Mirage Hotel is perfectly placed towards the top end of the Vegas strip for anybody visiting. I had a chance to wander around all the main hotels on the strip to take a few photos and each of them, in common with the Mirage, are self-sufficient venues. Clearly so, why would they want you to go into someone else's casinos? The city as a whole gives the impression of a Disneyland for adults. Walking down the strip can be a chore as the streets are lined by persistent latinos trying to hand out cards for strip clubs and prostitution services and they don't seem to be able to get the message if you are not interested! There is a booming trade here for marriages but gambling is the raison d'etre for the city. There is no need to leave your hotel if you come here but get out and about and take a look around, the design of all of the hotels is worth seeing. If you manage to do well at the tables then there is are plenty of venues in which to shop with your luckily won cash...spend it before the casinos win it back! There are numerous shows here by Cirque de Soleil, I went to see 'Ká' at the MGM Grand, impressive stuff. Having said that I have spent four days in Vegas; seen it, done that. Time to expand my world now then, next stop Colombia.

Unique Quality: There are several bars and restaurants on site and also entertainment. The pool areas, in keeping with the rest of the hotel are immaculately kept. The distinctive attraction here is the Volcano in front of the hotel reception which during the evening displays every hour on the hour.

Now a Classic and Still Impressive

The Mirage is quite the show piece in Vegas. Go to the hotel lobby and be mesmorized by the giant seawater aquarium. The atrium has beautiful plants. My daughter and her friends seemed to enjoy this hotel/casino the most because the Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat and the food from the Carnegie Delicatessen. The tram from Treasure Island, where we stayed at, made it quite easy to go the Mirage. This is a place not to be missed!

Most Feel Good Resort in Vegas

The best thing about the Mirage Casino in Las Vegas would be the atmosphere without a doubt. The pool is large with a great feel music throughout the grounds. We would eat breakfast by the pool each morning and then head to our sun lounges. I visited a lot of the other pool areas for example New York New York and The Venetian and their pool areas were shaded in the afternoon and I found had little atmosphere.

I enjoyed the variety of the restaurants and the fact I didnt have to eat buffet style every meal. The location of Mirage is hands down perfect if you are into the shows of Vegas. Right next door to Caesars you are right in the thick of it

Unique Quality: Outstanding qualities we found at the Mirage were the pool area. We are pool folk and enjoyed eating our breakfast by the pool each morning and then heading over for a swim.
The service by the pool was good we never had to wait long for a waitress to bring over our favourite cocktail!

Luxury at affordable prices

We stayed at the Mirage in July 2008, during the long weekend. Our stay was just amazing! We wanted to stay at a place with a nice pool and in the middle of the Strip. Mirage was perfect for that! The hotel is old, but it went through an extensive renovation (the Volcano in front of the hotel is still under renovation) that shows all over the place! The rooms are very clean (our room was a little bit smaller than the one at Bally's) and the beds are very comfortable. We stayed in the South Tower, room 11012. We had a nice view of the pool and a little bit of Strip view. The bathroom was on the small side, but very clean and more than enough for us. Everything is very tastefully decorated (room, bathroom, lobby, restaurants). The hotel staff is very friendly and I felt pampered during our stay here.
We spent a lot of time at the pool (amazing pool!) and we went to see "Love" one evening. It was very convenient since July in Vegas is hot. We did not have to go too far to see the show and this was perfect for me!
There are plenty of restaurants in the hotel and we enjoyed a lot the Paradise Restaurant, just by the pool. They have great food and the location is perfect. You can get a quick bite and go back to the pool in no time at all!

Unique Quality: the pool!!!
