Lots of people are slamming the Luxor here, but we had a great time and would stay there again in a heartbeat. Yes-- it's an older casino/hotel and it is showing age. We still chose to stay in the Pyramid because, well, you're staying in a pyramid and even the elevator goes sideways. It has a great view from the top floors too. Yes-- there are people trying to sell you timeshare stuff-- but so is every casino, even the higher end ones. Yes, they have no wifi and there is an ethernet cable. Why are you in your room using the internet when you should be out in Vegas or the surrounding area? Yes, the rooms are dated, but ours was comfortable and made us happy, and it had a cool view too.
We booked through Expedia in a package, and the only extra fee that we had was what Expedia told us in the agreement when making the reservation. The jets in our suite were down in the jacuzzi, which did suck, but they gave us a $.150 meal voucher in addition to giving us enough drink coupons to drink for free in the casino for the entire week that we were there... good enough for us as the drinks are pricey. This was a base for us as we were out hiking and doing things in Vegas, and as a base, it's a good place. The bars are fun, the casino has a good feel to it, and overall, it was a positive experience. We even got a free show (Cirque Du Soleil's Ka at the MGM) for staying for a week too, and those tickets aren't cheap. Instead of getting charged for things, we got a great deal. Again, give it a chance at least-- some of the people on here seem to have a hard on for making negative comments. You aren't at the frickin' Venetian, you're at a regular Joe place-- and I personally like that better anyway.
