The Luxor

I%26#39;m about to book the Luxor for December. How does everybody feel about the Luxor? And should I have any snow concerts for Vegas then?

The Luxor


My wife and I just got back a week ago from staying in a pyramid suite at the Luxor. The room seemed pretty run down and in need of repair. Their elevators were extremely slow and were constantly full and we had to wait for the next ones many times. I thought their casino layout was pretty bad also. I never could get my bearings to find my way around. I don%26#39;t think we will be staying there in the future. We did get one night comped with the players club card though, so that was a pretty good deal, we weren%26#39;t that big of gamblers.



The Luxor


Luxor is fine for me. But by your user name I can tell you can handle all the rough.




a username tells you what people can handle? Hardly




OK I%26#39;ll bite. What is a snow concert?




My sister had some major issues with the Luxor regarding their rooms and their customer service. They did not do well in either area. The casino itself is not appealing to me. Not sure if the new club LAX has changed anything, but the Luxor is one property I generally avoid. I would stay at MGM or Mandalay if I stayed on the South Part of the strip. Monte Carlo, or NYNY would be my other choices after the first two. Planet Hollywood would be another option. If your not tied into that location- I would look at TI- great property whose weak spot is the pool which will be closed in December.




I what to know about the snow concert too! It%26#39;s not a regional thing as I live in the upstate and have never heard that before.



I have heard of the snow dance, what teachers do to get a snow day!




Sorry guys...





It%26#39;s a typo.. I was asking if snow is a concern in December for the airport.

Ahhhhhh.....



I can%26#39;t speak for Spartanburg, but snow won%26#39;t be a problem at LAS. On the rare occassion there is snow in Vegas, it%26#39;s gone faster than it came.




If you are looking for a reasonable rate, you might want to checks out Harrahs.com for rates for Harrah%26#39;s , Bally%26#39;s and Flamingo should be close to the same rate and a lot better deal. They are located center of the strip and have good places to eat and good entertainment. The rooms are real nice and clean.




We stayed at the Luxor twice. The first time we had a pyramid room and really enjoyed it. No problems with the elevators. The next time, I had requested a pyramid room but I had somehow been ';upgraded'; to a tower room like they were doing me a favor. It seemed like it would take forever to get to our room. The room was recently refurbished, but the hallways looked worn down. We had an issue with our internet and someone fixed it right away. Otherwise it was fine.





I would stay at Luxor again, just not in the tower if it could be avoided. Half of my wedding guests are staying there this weekend. I told them all to request the pyramid.





I like the casino. Whenever we are there we pick a spot and the bartenders/cocktail waitresses would bring us our favorite drinks without asking after the first night.
