| - The short version: So far, the Luxor hotel is my favorite Las Vegas resort.
Splurge on a upgraded tower deluxe room. It is worth the additional fee as the rooms are newly renovated and beautiful with very comfortable beds, floor to ceiling windows (I had a view if the Oasis swimming pool), huge soaking tub and separate shower. It feels very Lux. The spa was also reasonably priced.
The pool was family friendly, all ages were welcome. They did serve adult drinks though and music blared over the speakers, the overall vibe was very low key, they weren't catering to the party crowd while I was there which made it relaxing and a nice break from the craziness of the strip. Be prewarned though there is no shaded areas unless you reserve a cabana, I believe they are $100 for the afternoon.
I am not much of a gambler, so I can't really speak to the games but there appeared to be many different slot matchines, not many tables. The casino lacked pesty time share sharks so that was refreshing as nobody likes to be harassed within their own hotel.
Luxor also has many great food options, and if you book your hotel on Vegas.com you will likely get a cupon book with great deals to just about all of them including their steak house, and my personal favorite Blizz frozen yogurt!
