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."

Rough Guide "A great standard of accommodation for the price."
Frommer's "We've grown very fond of this hotel, and we have to admit that it's gone to some efforts to make the ridiculous size work to its -- and, thus, your -- advantage." Full review
Fodor's "A regal, bronze rendering of the roaring MGM lion mascot fronts the four emerald-green, fortress-like towers of the MGM Grand, one of the largest hotels in the world." Full review
Insight Guides "A prime example of the ‘supersize’ Vegas mentality: a huge property at a great Strip location. Rooms in the West Wing are the best."
OysterUpscale
"The biggest hotel (by room count) in Las Vegas has the biggest casino in town, many of the best restaurants, an enormous and fun pool complex, and a huge range of on-site entertainment options." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Despite being one of the largest hotels in the world, the Grand maintains a relaxed ambience. It boasts a luxurious spa."
Star Service "This is one of the world's most exciting and energetic hotels, and also one of the largest." Full review
Gayot "When this hotel boasts about its superlative size, it's not kidding."
Lonely Planet "If you're looking to escape the hubbub on the Strip, these serene condominium oases may be just what you're looking for." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The MGM Grand, with its commanding location on the Vegas Strip marked by a 100,000-lb bronze lion statue, is a Las Vegas experience in itself." Full review
