Rough Guide "The whole place is often uncomfortably crowded; expect long lines at the restaurants."
Frommer's "One of the largest resort hotels in the world, Excalibur (also known as the Realm) is a gleaming white, turreted castle complete with moat, drawbridge, battlements, and lofty towers." Full review
Fodor's "The giant Lego-like castle is popular with families... but recent makeovers in all of the property's rooms make much of the property look more grown-up." Full review

"In the running for the cheesiest resort on the Strip, the medieval-themed, castle-shaped Excalibur aims for all age groups." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Topped with colorful turrets rising high above the Strip, this castle-themed resort was the world’s largest hotel when it first opened in 1990." Full review
DK Eyewitness "One of the first theme hotels (built in 1990), this is still a favorite with children."
Time Out "The jury's still out on whether or not this caricature of a castle will become the next generation's Circus Circus." Full review
Star Service "This ode to the make-believe medieval world of swords and sorcerers boasts low, low rates, a central location and a long list of B-grade entertainment that helps fill its nearly 4,000 rooms." Full review
Gayot "Debuting in June 1990, this colorful castle spawned a number of nineties-era theme resorts. It is still a fun-filled place whose medieval architecture and decor are popular with family travelers."
Lonely Planet "A mock castle playing on its Arthurian theme, with throngs of stroller-pushing parents." Full review

As is the case anywhere on The Strip, request a high floor, though here ask for a Deluxe room on a high floor.
