Rough Guide "While in keeping with the sophisticated style of the casino downstairs, Aria’s chocolate-brown and gold-toned guest rooms feel subdued and somewhat anonymous by Las Vegas standards."
Frommer's "Sitting at the virtual center of the massive CityCenter complex, Aria Las Vegas seems to elicit the classic "love it or hate it" reaction from visitors." Full review
Fodor's "Glistening like a futuristic oasis in the heart of the Strip, Aria truly deserves most of the attention it receives." Full review
Star Service "This is Aria's top-end pick, an exclusive hotel within a hotel, residing on floors 25-58 of Aria's South Tower." Full review
BlackBook "The towering Aria resort-casino is the glitzy centerpiece of the skyscrapers-on-the-Strip City Center."
Condé Nast Traveler "This mega-hotel at the CityCenter has all the fixings: more than 4,000 rooms in a Five Diamond hotel, 16 restaurants, three pools, and a spa where you can recline on Japanese stone beds." Full review

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
