| - I booked Luxor last minute for an event and I wasn't sure what to expect, but I figured why not I have always wanted to stay in the cool pyramid hotel with the blue light shooting up to the Vegas Sky! I was skeptical because of the Yelp reviews and normally I stay further down the strip but this trip I needed to be closer for an event at Excalibur.
From the very beginning at check in Luxor was great! My check in experience was just fine, I asked where the gym + pools were located and the front desk gal showed me on the key card map.
I agree the rooms do need updating (tapestry, bedding/furniture) but it's not a deal breaker. Bed is comfy and housekeeping peeps would say "good morning and hello" when passing by. (To me that's a extra nice gesture!) Bathrooms are cool and clean. Our room was in the pyramid and in back of the Sphinx, so it was neat to look out and see that! You will do some walking due to the pyramid elevators being only at one location on your floor so keep that in mind if you're traveling with children that hate walking! (I didn't mind I need the extra steps!) Luxor connects to Excalibur and has a free tram with Mandalay.
Heads up: There is a resort fee so keep that in mind when booking. (Wi-fi and gym, pool)
I checked out the gym and it's pretty cool. Must wear shoes in there too no flip flops!
My favorite part of Luxor is the pools! Wow I really like the vibe out there! It's hot it's Vegas cool off at the Luxor pools! If you want a spot on the chairs you gotta wake up early! There is also a paid pool area and if you are interested in renting cabanas that's available as well. I wasn't too keen on the shows, last time I saw Jabbawockeez here but they have since moved to their new show to MGM. Not interested in the current ones, so if there was something I was interested in I would definitely pay the money to watch while staying here!
(That's a minus star for show, ok bites+ outdated room decor/tapestries)
If you live Starbucks I believe there are 2 here! Convenient if you need that daily coffee and want to get work done without being in your room, I did just that! Keep in mind they are Vegas prices. I needed an extra key and the front desk is divided into various services which is really convenient. A manager approached me asking what type of assistance I needed, and told me I was in the correct line and to have my ID ready to speed up the process. That was perfect and her tip was spot on. My party wasn't too keen on the eating establishments offered here, so we ate elsewhere but it wasn't a big deal. Checking out was a breeze there are so many options: front desk express lane, TV checkout, calling front desk, drop card by elevators or email checkout.
One of the closest hotels to the airport soon it was a breeze to take transportation straight to Mccarran!
All in all my family and I enjoyed our experience at Luxor!
