Luxor Las Vegas - anyone been? Any advice?

It’s 15 years since we stayed at the Luxor - but we loved it! It’s not miles out, we walked everywhere from the hotel, and I was pregnant at the time! Enjoy yourself OP, I’m jealous, I want to go back now.

Luxor is absolutely fine!
I go to vegas a lot, and stayed at the Luxor in December last year.
Pyramids rooms are fine, lifts very strange as they go sideways up the pyramid, but fun!
Rooms and hotel clean, nice food court in the atrium, breakfasts, teas,coffees, subway, burgers etc
All reasonable price
Luxor has the titanic exhibition, and the bodies exhibition, as well as. Carrot top the comedian and the blue man group.
Next door is Mandalay bay, lovely shops on the walkway in between them, then the other way is New York New York, and Excalibur.
You'll have a ball, Luxor is totally fine, best of luck to you in the casino!!
Double diamonds is a great game!

If you get a choice ask for a room that is not in the Pyramid, the rooms in the side towers are a lot bigger.

My top recommendations would be a cirque show, eating in some amazing restaurants and a hockey game (Vegas Golden knights are the current champions) The mob museum is very interesting too, we were just there with some visitors and you could easily pass a couple of hours looking at everything.

We went in winter we just had long sleeve tops and cardigans although if you go to grandcanyon is a bit fresh but it isn't cold like "here" cold.

I've no idea what that gif is about.

I didn't think it was a dump .granted it isn't luxurious but it isn't a dump op dont worry.

Also, the luxor is well known as a dump, miles away from everything and haunted 😄. If there's a possibility of changing hotels I would get somewhere more central. Flamingo, the linq, planet Hollywood would be a similar no frills price range but more convenient locations

good timing choice weather-wise, OP; it'll be mid to high 20s but not the huge heat of the summer, and if your feet give out there are plenty of buses on the strip and even a free tram:

I live in Vegas. It's not that warm! It's 10 degrees right now and I have the heating on. The weather has been up and down lately, but the highest the temp has gotten so far is a couple of days of low 20s. Bring layers OP so you can cool down or warm up accordingly

You can order in from the cafes in the luxor I wouldn't worry about a kettle just ask for hot tea . Also people can smoke in the casinos so it is a bit smelly but there is ventilation also weed is legal so you smell it everywhere, if anybody ask if you want a photo taken with a showgirl or Elvis say no they charge a fortune.

We downloaded uber it's fab and the cars have a pull up lane order when you want it don't pre book as there is a booking fee. Try and catch a couple of shows too,

I found it hard to get decent tea in the Starbucks in Vegas! I went to two and both times I asked for it the server looked a bit panicked and just kind of threw me a teabag and pot of water. 😂
And one day at breakfast they brought the tea ingredients but no milk then looked really confused when I asked for some.
I went onto coffee instead for the rest of the trip.

Yes we have stayed at the Luxor the pyramid cafe is great for breakfast saves you going out in the morning . There is also a bus stop outside to get around . If you are getting a taxi from the airport say you have been before otherwise they go the long way round and over charge. The hotels are huge and you can walk between the Luxor and other hotels that have shops entertainment etc. VEGAS is insane but an experience you won't forget.

I've sent you a pm

Don’t be too hasty. I found it marvellous. Google the big piece as that’s in there on display.
also, there is a monorail behind the strip accessed through the one opposite New York New York (possibly mgm) so no need to walk loads.

Titanic exhibition and the Luxor both fantastic!! I went a few years ago. Wouldn’t rush back to vegas but I’m glad I went and would go again if there was something I wanted to see there. Saw Celine Dion there when I went and she was exceptional! Such talent and such a funny lady! Her storytelling between songs was brilliant.

It's totally cheese on toast, but then that's Vegas for you.

Best summary of Vegas I've ever come across!

We got married in Vegas and stayed in Paris Hotel. Recommend going to Fremont Street, taking a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon and taking in a show, if you can. They are also some super cheesy souvenir shops. I treasured my Las Vegas snowstorm and Las Vegas plush leopard-print cushion for YEARS 😄😄

I loved the titanic exhibition! Went about 15 years ago and it was the highlight of my trip, along with the bodies exhibition. The rest of Vegas I could take or leave tbh!

We always take a travel kettle if staying in hotels in the US. It takes ages to boil, but a proper cuppa is one of life’s necessities. There will be a fridge in the room so you can store milk.

Get off the strip and get down to Fremont street, a totally wild and wacky place. My favourite bit of Vegas!

We are just back from Vegas a few weeks ago. We went for U2 last gig. We stayed in the Cosmopolitan.

I loved it. Anything goes as far a clothing goes. There were some mega glamour poses but most people dressed casually.

We found it expensive. We went shopping to the Outlets which wasn't that cheap maybe a few bargains in Kate Spade but that aside nothing. There is a shopping mall called the Fashion show it was cool too.

We didn't go to the Luxor but it was at the other end of the strip. It was such a
Buzzing city I think you could sit and people watch and still have a brill time.

There was Starbucks all over the place so you will defo get tea.

It looks like it’s still running. It was a great show and the night I sealed the ‘Best Wife in the World’ title.

took my husband there for his birthday and by chance and our dumb luck he ended up sitting about 2 feet away from his favorite (American) football player and got to meet him. I of course took all credit for arranging it and he happily agreed.

Take comfy walking shoes as the strip is Loooooong.
