luxor or excalibur

Question

Good Day everyone!&#xD;&#xA;I will be traveling to vegas in mid September. Looking for the better choice of these two hotels.&#xD;&#xA;I&#x27;m going for a wedding at the MGM. I will be traveling alone. The hotel will more or less be a palce to sleep. I want to keep a low budget for hotel and air. &#xD;&#xA;I don&#x27;t figure I will spend too much time in my room other then sleeping. Walking didtance to the MGM will be important. &#xD;&#xA;Any advice between choosing one of these two would be great. &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Thanks

Luxor.  Not even close.

Uncle_Gimp · Answer

haven&#x27;t stayed at either, but I get annoyed just walking in the Excalibur, that fucking knight theme shit just annoys me, lol

VegasGourmet · Answer

They are next door to each other and, Luxor is a higher-grade MGM property than Excalibur (which is catty corner from the Grand)....why not look at NY/NY, another MGM property which is across the strip from the Grand and has a walkway that goes directly into the Grand.

I would prefer NY/NY for amenities, food and service.

ECUhomer · Answer

Agree with VG; NYNY is the best choice if not staying at the MGM.&#xD;&#xA;Lux is better than Ex and a free monorail will drop you off at the corner anyway.&#xD;&#xA;If you REALLY want to save some coin, Hooters is directly across the street from the MGM.  Low rates...low amenities.&#xD;&#xA;Have fun regardless.

I put some family that came to visit in the Luxor and I was highly disappointed with the room. The hotel is nice, but the rooms are outdated, and there was a great deal of bird shit on the window.

NYNY would be your best option if you can get it cheap.

I would even suggest Tropicana which has been renovated.

Excalibur. Stayed at Luxor last year and it was the WORST hotel I have stayed at in Vegas. Been there every year since 05 and have stayed at Excalibur 3 times. If you are like me and my friends we go down to get fucked up, gamble and bang bitches. At 4 in the morning it doesn't matter where you are staying they will follow.

If you are going down with your girl NY/NY is a good one. Also like the new Aria. Stayed there last year at a very reasonable price plus you are rightin the middle of the strip.

Anyways have a great time.

Thanks for some great ideas guys. Looks like I just might check in at the Luxor. NY NY and Tropicana came in about $100 more for the package.

Really will just need a place to crash. So this seems like it will do the trick.

Jm4n · Answer

for $100 more Id def take NYNY

nc1capper · Answer

Luxor should do just fine

Kelly_Slater · Answer

Luxor = less kids

B0NESAW · Answer

hate the location of the Luxor.... Excalibur theme is just shit, and kids, it's almost Circus Circus, lol...... you said wedding is at MGM and u just want cheap place sleep etc? Try the Tropicana right across, they really renovated it nicely, and can walk the tunnel right to MGM.

bigdogz_ca · Answer

i finally booded my trip  and decided to go to tropicana. im booked in for sept.17-21  if anyone is down that way. a few other questions  what should i expect for a cab fair from the airport? and if anyone has stayed at the tropicana and advice would be welcome

SweetLou15 · Answer

Cab fare will cost you about $13 to Trop, its very close to the airport. You can also get a shuttle that will run you $7 but may take a few minutes longer to get there with multiple stops.

FrontRowCenter · Answer

Luxor of the two, and it is not even close.But stay at the MGM if the wedding is there.If u are worried about 100 bucks, stay home !!!
