During your Las Vegas vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Luxor Las Vegas
More accessible than ever thanks to the air-conditioned people mover from Excalibur and the monorail from Mandalay Bay, Luxor's casino was completely remodeled a few years back and, in our opinion, improved immeasurably. You enter through a giant temple gateway flanked by massive statues of Ramses. Gone is the space-wasting central area that used to contain the bathrooms, cashiers, and casino offices. This additional space gives the casino a much more airy feel, which produces a low claustrophobia level -- in parts, you can see all the way up the inside of the pyramid. King Tut heads and sphinxes adorn slot areas. The One Club, a Mandalay Resorts slot-players club, also valid at sister properties such as Excalibur, Mandalay Bay, Circus Circus, and others, offers rewards of cash, merchandise, meals, and special services to slot and table players. Sports action unfolds on 17 large-screen TVs and 128 personalized monitors in Luxor's race and sports book. We already felt inclined to like this casino thanks to a good run at blackjack, but the redesign has made it even more inviting.
Golden Nugget
While this is not the standout among casino properties developed by Steve Wynn (and recently sold by MGM MIRAGE to Internet entrepreneurs Thomas Breitling and Timothy Poster), it's still one of the nicest places to gamble, lookswise, in Downtown. (We prefer Main Street Station, but you might prefer the more obvious attempts at class that this place exudes.) That's because this looks like old Vegas, but in the classy, gilded, glittery golden, cramped way, rather than the current dingy and depressing way. Some tables are only $5 minimum, at least during the day. And compared to most other Downtown properties, this is the most like the Strip. There's no word on what the new owners plan to do to the casino, but they've promised to bring back "Old Vegas" style to Downtown. Stay tuned.
Barbary Coast
The Barbary Coast is an 1890s-style casino ornately decorated with $2 million worth of gorgeous stained-glass skylights and signs, as well as immense crystal-dangling globe chandeliers over the gaming tables. It's kind of small, dark, and cluttered, but it's also Old Las Vegas (and we mean "old" loosely), and small is rare on the Strip. The casino has a players club tied into the other Coast Casinos, such as Orleans and Suncoast.
Excalibur
Now this is kitsch. One of the largest resort hotels in the world, Excalibur (aka "the Realm") is a gleaming white, turreted castle complete with moat, drawbridge, battlements, and lofty towers. And it's huger than huge.You know, as much as we might publicly stand in favor of quiet good taste, there is a part of our soul that is secretly thrilled by overblown fantasy locations -- it's so authentically Vegas. And so we just pray that the Lords of Taste never touch Excalibur, and it is allowed to forever run amok with sword and sorcery imagery. Actually, the decorating fairies have already made some quiet changes (the deep reds in the public areas have been switched to creams), but nothing that really sullies the silliness. There are some ominous rumblings in keeping with the rest of Vegas's careening away from the "family-friendly" image -- gone is the animatronic dragon and wizard show out front, and inside, where a nice horse show used to be, there is a male stripper act, Thunder from Down Under. It's really too bad, because without the excess, this is just another hotel -- a mighty big and chaotic hotel, thanks to a sprawling casino full of families and small-time gamblers, which is located smack dab in the middle of everything, including, naturally, the path between you and the elevators to your room.Rooms are done in neutrals (a little too much brown for our tastes). They have vague heraldic overtones and, given the price, are perhaps the best bet on the Strip for the budget-minded. Note that none of the bathrooms have tubs, just showers. Guests who have stayed in Tower 2 have complained about the noise from the roller coaster across the street at New York-New York. (It runs till 11pm, so early birds should probably ask to be put in a different part of the hotel.) Frankly, we prefer stopping in for a visit rather than actually settling in here, but we know single-minded others (read: Vegas is for gambling, and so is the majority of the vacation budget) who wouldn't consider staying anywhere else.The second floor holds the Medieval Village, where Excalibur's restaurants and shops are peppered along winding streets and alleyways, a sort of permanent Renaissance Faire, which could be reason enough to stay away (or to come). On the Village's "Jester's Stage," jugglers, puppeteers, and magicians amuse guests with free 20-minute performances throughout the day. Up here you can access the enclosed, air-conditioned, moving sidewalk that connects with the Luxor. There are plenty of restaurants, including the Roundtable Buffet, and a pretty good prime rib joint. Excalibur won our hearts forever by installing a branch of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts on the second level, on the way to the Luxor walkway. The Tournament of Kings is a medieval-style dinner show, and there's a very loud, claustrophobic casino.
Stratosphere Casino Hotel & Tower
A really neat idea, in that Vegas way, in a really bad location. At 1,149 feet, it's the tallest building west of the Mississippi. In theory, this should have provided yet another attraction for visitors: Climb (okay, elevator) to the top and gaze at the stunning view. But despite being on the Strip, it's a healthy walk from anywhere -- the nearest casino is the Sahara, which is 5 very long blocks away. This, and possibly the hefty price charged for the privilege of going up to the top of the tower, may have conspired to keep the crowds away.And while the crowds might have been justified before, they -- and by "they," we mean "you" -- might reconsider, especially if you are looking for a friendly place to hang your hat, but nothing more. The smaller-size rooms here are basically motel rooms -- really nice motel rooms, but with that level of comfort and style. Then again, you can often get such a room for around $29 a night. (And do join the casino's players club -- they tend to offer free rooms with more or less minimal play.) Perfect if you are coming to Vegas with no plans to spend time in your room except to sleep (if even that).That isn't to say there aren't other elements to like here, including the aforementioned casino, a midway area with kiddie-oriented rides, a pool with a view, and some of the friendliest, most accommodating staff in town. You can still ride the following incredible thrill rides (provided the wind isn't blowing too hard that day) on top of the tower: the world's highest roller coaster -- aka the High Roller -- (it careens around the outer rim of the tower 909 ft., 108 stories, above ground); the Big Shot, a fabulous free-fall ride that thrusts passengers up and down the tower at speeds of up to 45 mph; and the new X-Scream, a giant teeter-totter-style device that gives you the sensation of falling off the side of the building. Indoor and outdoor observation decks offer the most stunning city views you will ever see, especially at night. For the price, this might be the right place for you. Just remember you need a rental car or a lot of cash for cabs to get to the true thrills down the Strip.In addition to the casino, the hotel also sports two productions shows: American Superstars (an impression-filled production show) and Viva Las Vegas (Las Vegas-style revue), which are reviewed in Nightlife.Facilities: Casino; showrooms; wedding chapel; 11 restaurants; large new pool area with great views of the Strip; children's rides and games located at the base of the tower; concierge; tour desk; car-rental desk; shopping arcade; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms.
Motel 6
Fronted by a big neon sign, Las Vegas's Motel 6 is the largest in the country, and it happens to be a great budget choice. Most Motel 6 properties are a little out of the way, but this one is quite close to major Strip casino hotels (the MGM is nearby). It has a big, pleasant lobby, and the rooms, in two-story, cream-stucco buildings, are clean and attractively decorated. Some rooms have showers only; others have tub and shower bathrooms. Local calls are free.
