Luxor Hotel & Casino

Luxor’s 30-story black glass Pyramid remains one of Earth’s boldest architectural icons, while its lesser-known East and West Towers quietly deliver some of the best sub-$160 renovated soaking-tub rooms near Allegiant Stadium. Guest rooms range from standard king configurations up to multi-room suites, supported by full casino gaming floors, luxury pools, and signature fine dining.

Travelers who book unupgraded Pyramid rooms expecting swift elevators or bright windows—or visitors wanting walkable Center Strip access—should skip Luxor.

Recommended Alternative: New York-New York (for newly remodeled Soho rooms closer to Center Strip) or Mandalay Bay next door (for luxury 550-sq-ft rooms and wave pool)

Always spend the extra $20/night for East Tower or West Tower Premier rooms—you get flat floor-to-ceiling windows, separate soaking tubs, and fast vertical elevators instead of creaky 39-degree Pyramid Inclinators. Tower selection dramatically impacts both elevator walking distances and late-night acoustic tranquility.

Compared to Excalibur connected next door, Luxor offers far quieter adult energy, spacious East/West Tower bathrooms, and closer indoor access to Mandalay Place restaurants. Evaluating room square footage, casino air filtration, and walking transit ensures expectations align with your trip style.

Clark County lodging regulations levy the 13.38% tax rate on BOTH base room charges and mandatory resort fees. Over a 3-night stay, resort fees alone contribute $142.86 to your final checkout ledger.

Mandatory $42.00/nt fee ($47.62 taxed) includes guest Wi-Fi, fitness center entry, and unlimited local/toll-free phone calls.

Excluded amenities include valet parking, pool daybed rentals, and spa hydrotherapy facilities.

The front desk authorizes $50.00 per night for room incidentals at check-in. Using a debit card temporarily locks these funds from your checking account balance until 3–5 business days post-checkout. Self-parking runs $20/day ($25 Fri–Sun; surges to $50 for non-guests during Raiders/Allegiant Stadium events) and valet is $40/day (MGM Rewards Gold+ free).

Zero sensor minibars exist in Pyramid or Tower rooms; standard rooms do not include mini-fridges unless booked in Tower Suites or requested for medical use.

Loyalty Exemption: MGM Rewards Gold+ waives the $47.62 taxed resort fee and daily parking on direct bookings; Pearl+ waives standard self-parking.

Friday afternoons 3:00 PM–6:00 PM and NFL Raiders weekends when check-in lines wrap around the atrium; activate MGM mobile digital key to walk straight to your wing. Guests utilizing resort mobile apps can complete digital registration and use smartphone Bluetooth digital keys to bypass physical front desk lines entirely.

Early check-in before 1:00 PM costs $25.00–$30.00 via the MGM app; full-service bell stand sits right beside the West Valet registration doors. Bell captains provide numbered claim tickets; storing bags while waiting for rooms is customary and fully secured.

Unlike traditional hotels where lobbies open directly onto sidewalks, navigating casino floor mazes, shops, and escalators at Luxor Hotel & Casino requires budgeting 9 minutes each way before estimating transit times to other resorts.

11:00 AM; use MGM app express checkout to skip long Sunday morning front-desk queues. Late checkouts past 12:00 PM generally require advance requests and fees ranging from $30 to half the nightly room rate depending on occupancy.

Rideshare: the North Porte-Cochere / Rideshare Plaza located between the Pyramid and the East/West Towers off Reno Avenue

Airport Flat Fare: Clark County flat-rate airport taxi Zone 1 ($21.00 flat fare one-way—just 8 minutes from Airport Terminal 1/3 via Russell Rd tunnel) (plus $3.00 credit card transaction fee and customary tip).

using Frank Sinatra Drive behind the Pyramid into the rear self-parking lot, and scanning your active hotel room key to bypass $50 Allegiant Stadium event-parking blocks. Always enter from back service roads (such as Frank Sinatra Drive or Koval Lane) rather than attempting left turns across Las Vegas Boulevard.

100% air-conditioned indoor moving walkways north to Excalibur and south through Mandalay Place Shoppes to Mandalay Bay, plus the free outdoor Mandalay–Luxor–Excalibur Tram. Utilizing these climate-controlled connectors protects travelers from 110°F summer pavement temperatures and street crosswalk wait times.

walk 14 minutes across the Hacienda Avenue pedestrian bridge to Allegiant Stadium, dine at Ri Ra Irish Pub in Mandalay Place, or visit HyperX Esports Arena onsite. These close pairings avoid rideshare waits and high weekend surge pricing.

Sprawling 5-acre Egyptian courtyard with 4 large heated pools; abundant complimentary loungers except on peak July Saturdays after 11:00 AM. Guests must show active room keys for gate entry; outside coolers and personal glass containers are confiscated at bag check.

Because the Pyramid atrium encloses 29 million cubic feet of open air, casino smoke dissipates upward far better than at Excalibur’s low-ceiling floor. Non-smoking guests with asthma or respiratory sensitivities should utilize perimeter corridors or consider 100% smoke-free Park MGM.

Pyramid interior hallways face directly over the open casino atrium, carrying slot chimes up to Floors 4–12 (71 dB); East and West Towers are fully enclosed and quiet (63 dB). Requesting rooms situated midway down elevator corridors on higher floors minimizes both hallway foot traffic and pool bass thuds.

Tower Two-Queen connecting rooms and a remarkably low $50/night credit card incidental hold make Luxor easy on family travel budgets. Strollers are welcomed across non-gaming promenades and pool concourses, but minors are strictly prohibited from loitering near active slot machines or table gaming rails.
