Wow..... people no likie the Luxor.
Not me tho! I'm a fan of this place.
I had a trip scheduled to Vegas for 4 days, staying at Aria.
I then decided to go out a day early and didn't want to pay another night of the high Aria price so I pulled up Luxor on their website.
I have stayed here a couple times since it was built and always liked it.
Price online $58 which included the $14.50 'resort fee'. Killer price.
I stayed in the older Pyramid Rooms because I like being at the top of the pyramid. it totally freaks me out!
The room was exactly the same as I remembered. Nothing flashy, but it was clean and great for the price.
The resort fee included wired internet which worked perfect.
(Internet at Aria?? $15.00 per day!)
So they have totally changed the vibe at Luxor. No more boat ride or motion rides or anything for the 'family'. This place is now strictly for adults. To me the place has a dark, erotic feel to it.
It is very dark in the place, but that just adds to the whole Pyramid eeriness.
I was on the 27th floor of the pyramid. It still freaks me out and makes me sick to my stomach to stand against the short little wall and look down to the inside of the pyramid. Definitely nothing like it around!

Yes the place is a little worn, but they are slowly bringing it back to life.
I'm not a fan of Criss Angel so I wouldn't pay to see his show. It was weird to see all the tattooed look-alikes walking around the place!
Definitely a younger, more casual crowd the night I was there.
Great music blasting throughout the casino was a nice touch too.
When is the last time you heard "Erotica" by Madonna??!! I should probably give Luxor 5 stars just for that!
