Fancy staying in a Pyramid?
You can if you are heading to Las Vegas.
During our
road trip in California, Las Vegas was one of our stop on the itinerary. Luxor was our chosen hotel. With the Egyptian theme and pyramid-style structure, it set the mood for a wacky Las Vegas holiday.

Luxor hotel has 2 room types. The older rooms at the Pyramid Section and the newly remodelled rooms in the Tower section. For our stay, the Tower Premium Queen Room was our choice as it comes with 2 queen beds that sleep 4 comfortably.
The Tower Premium Queen Room is about 41sqm.

It's a good size room for a family of four. Each room comes with a TV, safe deposit box, a bathroom with tub. The modern look is a good upgrade from their existing pyramid rooms.
The room comes with the standard toiletries and towels. Toothbrush and toothpaste is not included.
If you are looking for a minibar, it does not come with the room. In addition, bottled water and kettle are not included as well. Our advice is to grab a couple of gallons of water when you are en route to Las Vegas as water can be pricey in the desert.

In terms of comfort, we are relatively happy with the room. Most of the time, we are out exploring Vegas. Nonetheless, we had plenty of good night rest in the room.

| Pool at Luxor |
As we were there during winter, we did not use the pool. The pool are opened to guests in other seasons. You could book cabana there for a small fee as well.

For entertainment, head to the Mezzanine Level for performance such as the Blue Man Group, Bodies the Exhibition and more. There is a food court at the Mezzanine level as well.

There are other food options within the hotel itself, but since we were out exploring, we did not visit them.
WHAT'S NEARBY
Luxor Hotel is located on the strip. It may not be on the middle of the strip, but if you are heading to Vegas with kids, this might be a better stretch to stay in with nearby attractions suitable for kids. Here are some highlights that are suitable for kids.
