Went to the Luxor in August...they've been doing renovations, it was fine with us cause it was a bunch of young people looking to party and just sleeping in the room...but if you're looking for something with the Mrs. maybe not the best choice
Yes i agree, the Rio is across the highway so you have to take the shuttle to the sister casino, ie Bally or Caesar...blab blab...you u like to play poker no question it is the Rio, the poker room is huge...
Never been to the Lux...but it is on the southside of the strip and for me it is a little to far south,,,,
The monte carlo sucks but if you want to stay on the strip and have access to MGM, have to walk to Ceasar and also The big B....plus in my opinion the best sportsbooks are at Caesar or the Bellagio...
Air fare and 4 nights hotel.. Which would you pick?
Rio $399
Planet Hollywood $418
Caesars $469
Harrahs $371
Treasure Island $429
MGM Grand $434
Luxor $399
Imperial Palace $351
Monte Carlo $402
Stratosphere $355
Bally's $410
Excalibur $377
I agree Harrahs to me is the best since it is across the street from Ceasar and etc....the only neg is that is does not have a street entrance (for check in and also check out's ) so you will enter the hotel to check in from the back..also all shuttles and taxi rides will be from the rear of the casino...but all in all i like harrah's for it's central location...
for those prices, rio, mgm, or caesars are the 3 choices. not much more and youre getting quite better quality. if you want to be more upscale, spend the little extra for caesars. the rio has an excellent buffett, but its about $30. you wont complain with the rio, but caesars is a little more of a classy setting for the wife.
I agree with Rio. Ask for a room high up with a view, mention its your anniversary. Also try to stay Sun-Thur you'll have a better chance of a primo suite. Back in March the wife got an offer for a free night so we went on a Mon or Tues. At check in she asked the guy for a room high up with a view. He put us on the top floor. We had a huge suite with a full dining room, a living room and a jucuzzi tub. Too bad it was only for one night. Their seafood restaurant Buzio's is pretty good. Personally I didn't care for the buffet. If you like buffets go to the Mirage or Wynn. You can take the free shuttle to Harrah's and walk to either from there. Hope this helps buddy and happy anniversary.
if youre bringing the wife i suggest rio or monte carlo if you are selecting out of those 3. luxor is complete shit. but if you had option to use that money elsewhere, stay at the venetian or planet hollywood. both suites are sickkk.
