luxor hotel in las vegas bathrooms are oversized - by Kiki

Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas

Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas has over 4,000 rooms to choose from making it one of the largest hotels in Vegas. This includes the pyramid rooms and the tower rooms. The hotel is sandwiched between Mandalay Bay on one side and the Excalibur on the other. It's hard to miss, being the only pyramid on the Strip and the only casino with a giant light beam reaching 10 miles into the sky.

In the pyramid, there are over 2,000 deluxe rooms overlooking a very large atrium in the center of the casino. The spa suites include a separate bedroom and sitting room area as well as a spa tub. Bathrooms are oversized. The slanted windows are a little surreal but unique. Compared to other casinos in Vegas, the rooms at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas are probably on par with the old Aladdin, now called "Planet Hollywood."

The twin towers behind the pyramid have over 1,700 deluxe rooms and over 230 suites to select from. They feature, besides the standard king or double queen sized beds, a large armoire, 27" color TVs and internet access for a fee. The luxury suites in the towers are 780 square feet with a breakfast alcove, a wet bar, his and her sinks and lighted make-up mirrors in the bathroom. The floor to ceiling windows make it easy to appreciate the fantastic view of the Strip and the Vegas nightlife.

The premier tower suites are over 1,000 square feet and feature all the amenities of the luxury suites with additional space for entertaining in the living room. The Egyptian theme is prevalent in all the rooms to some degree. They are not as large or luxurious as say the Bellagio or the Wynn suites. I would choose the tower rooms over the pyramid rooms because I hear too many complaints about the lack of upkeep in the pyramid rooms.

The player deluxe room is also in the towers. It features a California King, a 42" plasma TV, Bose sound, an alarm clock with CD or MP3 capabilities, a wet bar and jet tub. You can also recline in your club chair and watch TV or take in the view through the expansive windows.

Overall, the staff at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas needs to work on being more customer-friendly. When visitors travel to Vegas they are tired and hungry and want to be treated with understanding and promptness. Two things I hear lots of complaints about at the Luxor.

Repairs and updating are due in the pyramid rooms. Perhaps the Luxor needs to increase its staff because rooms are not getting cleaned on time, food is left out in the hallways for a couple of days and room service is not always prompt. Still, it's a unique place to stay with an active nightlife scene and within walking distance of the New York-New York and the MGM Grand.
