Luxor Hotel and Casino

I think this hotel is just a little too large for its' own boots. It's more of a huge cave, with lots of ants running around.
The queue's for check-in were a little long for my liking, and we ended up in a ground floor room that I wasn't overly pleased about because outside of the window you could see one of the main doors to the hotel.
We were in one of the towers rather than the main pyramid, even though I went for one of the more expensive rooms.
That said. Vegas really is worth a few days. We saw a show (mamma mia), flew around the city at night in a helicopter, went for a flight to the canyon, and went horseback riding in the mountains.... not to mention going on a gondola, and up the Eiffel tower. There's so much on offer, and I'll be going again, but perhaps not to the Luxor, which had the feeling of Tesco rather than M&S.

The Luxor was a fantastic hotel. The casino was enormous, and the staff were very friendly.
Only slight problem that we had was that a few of the pools were closed for maintenance while we were there, and so with only 1 available to use it was very full. There were poolside waitresses who were always around to come to your sun lounger, and get your orders, and then bring the drinks to you. I sampled a few Budweiser’s (Ice cold) just what you need in the heat!!
Would definitely go back to Vegas in the future, but would like to try one of the other hotels next time. Cezars palace looked like a great one to try. Nothing wrong with the Luxor, but would just like to try somewhere different.

Well, this was my 3rd stay at the Luxor and it was still up there with the top Vegas Hotels! The Casino feels more 'airy' than most and is pretty well laid out.
The rooms are quite spacious and have always been very clean.
It is quite novel beginning in a pyramid shaped hotel and if you can get one of the higher pyramid rooms (rather than the towers) then you will be able to go in the 'inclinator' which is pretty cool!
The food has always been excellent and the service has been fantastic. The hotel is in an excellent location if you have hired a car and you are close the McCarren Airport.
If you like planes etc, get a room with Mandalay Bay side and you will be in for a treat (you can watch the Area 51 staff flying out to the base on the unmarked planes)!!
All in all a fab hotel, one of the best in the City, and at a good price too!

The Luxor is excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and concur with most of the other reviews we've read.
Loved the spa suites (well worthwhile) and the ambience in the hotel. Only one pool open when we were there but didn't affect us too much.
One serious gripe though. 8 of us had a meal in The Steakhouse and it was simply appalling. Our party had a range of tastes from medium rare to well done, and our steaks were simply not done as we requested.
Worse they would not accept they weren't cooked correctly. It's pretty obvious with blood dripping from the steak it’s not well done. Overpriced, incompetent chef, rude waiting staff - eat somewhere else!
But don't let it put you off the Luxor, its good!

We went to Las Vegas to get married and had the time of our lives. The hotel was great and the whole Las Vegas experience was one we will never forget.
A visit to the Grand Canyon should be high on your list of things to do while you are there. There are so many things to see and so many wonderful shows that you just don't have time to see and do everything as there is so much happening.
Las Vegas is definitely the city that never sleeps not New York! It has something for everyone and I can't wait to go back. There really is no place like it in the world.

The accommodation was excellent in the Luxor. There was plenty of ways to get around Vegas and all were an experience. The hotel and tour staff were very helpful, they were able to provide knowledge on numerous subjects all of which came in use.
The tours were very easy to arrange and we did this through an independent tour operator. They were well organised and we saw some breathtaking views such as the Grand Canyon and the Hoover Dam. I would definitely recommend the Luxor and would say to anyone that goes there to go to the grand canyon as it was an amazing experience.
We got to have dinner with the Red Indians and were able to go right down into the deepest part of the canyon via a helicopter and then a boat.

We stayed in one of the corner spa rooms which provided us with a little more luxury and sitting in the spa looking out over Vegas especially after the long flight was heaven.
The Luxor is quite an impressive hotel and you cannot stop looking around. Unfortunately the desk staff were a little unhelpful and it was only when I asked about my free extras (it is worth looking at the extras available on their website if booking with them direct as you can get 2 for 1 on the museum, I-max etc) that I was given them. She also did not properly organise our "tab" which proved a little embarrassing later on
The casino was very nice but again the croupiers were not as friendly as in other hotels such as New York New York and the atmosphere was maybe a little more sedate than some of the others on the strip.
We had a fantastic meal though in the Luxor steakhouse. All the staff there were lovely and attentive and the food definitely made our stay
The inclinators were an experience though!
Overall I will be staying in another hotel on my next visit but i wouldn't say not to stay at the Luxor.

I went to the Luxor as part of a group of three friends who all had dreams and ambitions to hit the jackpot in Vegas. It was very telling of our surroundings that there wasn't one argument throughout the whole 10 days of our holiday, it was just one big rollercoaster of fun.
We found the Luxor hotel to have all the facilities that you would need and there are great finds to be made that you really have to look for in the hotel. The fancy restaurant in the hotel is Isis, I highly recommend this to anybody as a treat, its quite expensive (maybe £50-75pp with wine) but its such a great venue with superb service.
Gambling wise we didn't stay in the hotel for too long, it was our first trip to Vegas and so we naturally had to explore the rest of the strip and some of the favourite casinos from our travels included MGM, New York New York, Casers Palace and Belaggio. I never get over the fact that you get free drinks while you are playing the machines, even if you are playing some 5p a go slot machine (always best to tip a dollar though if you want the waitress to come back).
It is a very expensive holiday is the only downside if it is one. If you go there you just relax so much that money isn't going to hold back your enjoyment and you become more liberal with it or at least I did.
Would highly recommend the Luxor as a hotel to stay in as it ticked every box for a mid priced accommodation although next time we will probably stay in mid-strip or potentially down-town to get a better flavour of the whole area.
Viva Las Vegas!

Almost all the hotels on the Las Vegas strip blow your mind with their sheer size and extravagance. Luxor is no exception and on first exploration is a fabulous luxury hotel. The hotel's sheer size does make it impersonal but service was always first class. Plenty choice for eating to suit all budgets and some good entertainment. Having seen the hotels on offer in Las Vegas, however, this won't be my first choice if I should return. It is too far from the action and getting anywhere is a very long walk. If you are not a serious gambler, you will soon find there is no exit or walkway that does not have an indirect route to it through the casino and this gets extremely tiresome!! Hotel rooms are reasonably cheap in Las Vegas for what’s on offer so I think it is worth splashing out and going for the much more spectacular hotels such as the bellagio.

The Luxor a world renowned hotel, which features an ancient Egyptian theme. The rooms are clean, spacious and well decorated. We stayed in the pyramid rooms, so also went up in the inclinators-elevators which go up and down at a slant-a definite experience!
The pool at the back is great, especially in August, when the temperature is always in the 100Fs. There are three separate pools and plenty of loungers to sit on.
Because we were on a family vacation we did not gamble, as under 21s are not allowed on the casino floor. We visited the M&M shop and the Pepsi shop, both of which were worth it. One of the highlights was being able to try Pepsi products from around the world.
I would recommend walking as much of the strip as you can, since it's wonderful to wander around and look at the sights. However because of the distance and the heat, this isn't always possible. Therefore a great deal is to be had with the Deuce bus service, which runs every 6 mins or so from almost every strip hotel & downtown. It costs $5 for a 24 pass.
