Rough Guide
"Spending a night or two in this vast smoked-glass pyramid... still counts among the great Las Vegas experiences."
Frommer's
"Kitsch worshipers were dealt a blow when the people behind this hotel came to the inexplicable decision to eliminate most of the Egypt theme from the inside of it." Full review
Concierge
"Luxor has never fulfilled its potential as a top-notch property, but its aggressive restaurant and nightlife redo... has put it back on the radar screens of higher-end visitors."
Fodor's
"Welcome to the land of the Egyptians—Vegas style. This modern-world wonder is topped with a xenon light beam that burns brighter than any other in the world." Full review
Lonely Planet
"As the Luxor slowly sheds its kitschy Egyptian theme, guest rooms feature vaguely art-deco furnishings, plus marble bathrooms." Full review

Avoid lower-floor rooms in the pyramid, which vibrate all night long thanks to booming LAX nightclub downstairs.
Travel + Leisure
"Featuring a 30-story black glass exterior topped with the world’s brightest light beam, the Luxor is one of the most recognizable buildings on the Strip." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Its 30-story pyramid and giant sphinx have been Vegas landmarks since 1993."
Time Out
"Second only to New York New York in terms of the absurdity of its exterior, the Luxor impresses on scale long before you've set foot inside it." Full review
Star Service
"This is a safe choice for its prime location, nightlife, and the interesting pyramid rooms." Full review
Gayot
"This property can stack nine Boeing 747s in its 350-foot-tall pyramid's 29-million-square-foot atrium, which is encased in some eleven acres of glass."

"The location is great... but the actual accommodation varies enormously."
Frommer's
"Renovations and expansions over the years aren't going to make Siegel's "real class joint" cause you to forget about, say, the rooms at The Palazzo, but they have freshened the joint up." Full review
Fodor's
"This elaborately landscaped, pink, classic-era resort with a 15-acre pool complex is still one of the best in town choices in town." Full review

Be sure to check out the on-site wildlife area, complete with a koi pond and, naturally, a flamboyance of flamingoes.
Travel + Leisure
"Flamingo Las Vegas, which was originally owned by Bugsy Siegel in 1946, has exuberantly remade itself and become the hippest hotel on the Strip." Full review
Time Out
"The Flamingo is the Strip's sleeping giant. Its location at the heart of the action couldn't be better; and thanks to its beginnings under Bugsy Siegel, its name is virtually legendary." Full review
Star Service
"This is in an undeniably excellent location, and...it is at least one of the best bargains on The Strip." Full review
Gayot
"The 3,642 rooms and suites are nicely appointed and a great value in these price ranges."
BlackBook
"There's pretty much nothing left of the original casino that Bugsy Siegel built at the birth of Vegas, the one where Elvis won his race car at the beginning of Viva Las Vegas."
Lonely Planet
"Legendary Miami-style casino hotel; middle Strip, next to the new Linq complex; white mod furnishings; waterslides and lagoons make it extra family-friendly." Full review

"Smack bang mid-Strip, this vintage casino hotel mixes a sprinkling of glitz with legendary mobster history." Full review
