One of the most unusual attractions in Las Vegas is the giant pyramid of the Las Vegas Luxor, one of the first themed resorts in the Vegas strip (opened in 1993). This slice of ancient Egyptian history really stands out – even in Las Vegas which is home to some of the most unique hotels in the world.
Las Vegas Luxor is located at the end of the strip nearest to the airport (McCarran LAS Airport). The Luxor is near to the Mandalay Bay resort and the Excalibur hotel (in fact there is a tram that connects the hotels), striking hotels in their own right, but the Luxor is strikingly different and a real engineering marvel. Once the tallest building on the strip, the Luxor has since been dwarfed by other mega resort hotels in the area.
Capable of accommodating over 4,400 guests, the Luxor Las Vegas has it’s rooms on the outer walls of the pyramid and instead of elevators the Luxor has “inclinators” which move up and down inside the pyramid at a 39-degree angle. Open hallways leading to the rooms on all floors overlook the vast atrium at the center of the pyramid, which at the time of writing, is still the largest in the world. In the evening the Luxor can be seen for miles around due to the huge light beam that shoots straight up from the top of the pyramid vertically into the night sky.
This unique Luxor charm also extends to the entertainment with a host of unusual and amazing acts.
Renowned TV illusionist Criss Angel records episodes of the TV series “Mindfreak” at the Luxor. The famous Fantasy seductive topless adult dance revue perform at the Luxor nightly with beautiful showgirls, live singers, comedy and cutting edge choreography. Another bizarre attraction at the Luxor is “Bodies… The Exhibition“. This show features whole body specimens and individual organs offering a unique view of the skeletal, muscular, respiratory, and circulatory systems of the human body – It’s a sight you won’t ever forget! Last but not least, the prop comic Carrot Top (named “Entertainer of the Year”) wows the crowd at the Luxor 6 nights a week with his incredible brand of twisted humor and wacky inventions.
The Luxor has it’s own spa offering massages and body/beauty treatments, many swimming pools and hot tubs, nightclubs, 29 high-quality retail outlets, restaurants and of course the busy Luxor casino (this is Vegas after all!).
The Luxor Las Vegas is not just a wonderful place to stay, it’s a complete visually stunning spectacle offering the unique experience of ancient Egypt on the Las Vegas strip.
