I recently visited Las Vegas, splitting my visit between the Luxor and The MGM Grand Hotel. I booked my reservation on-line for 89 dollars the first night and 99 dollars the second night. The total was just over two hundred dollars with taxes. After returning from Las Vegas, I have received offers from the Luxor with rooms as low as 69 dollars per night, which are extremely low for any decent hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.
I took a cab from the Airport, which was thirteen dollars plus a tip. The shuttle runs six dollars per person. The ride from the airport took about five minutes. Upon arriving at the Luxor, it is difficult to get the entire feel for the property. The exterior pyramid shape with beacon on top seems sort of small from the outside. A giant lion guards the entrance to the interior.
As you enter the Luxor, prepare to be amazed. If you have even the slightest appreciation for architecture, you should be truly awe struck by the massive room you find yourself in. The interior of the pyramid section of the hotel is an open design. walkways around the exterior of the building take you to the individual rooms. Rooms located on the lower levels are accessed through glass elevators. The other levels are serviced by an inclinator which is an elevator that rides at an angle up the sides of the pyramid. From inside, you can see all the way up to the top floors. The view is somewhat obstructed by the structures concealing the inclinators, but the view is truly breathtaking. The entrance is also adorned by statues and sculptures that set the ancient Egyptian theme.
