At the south end of the Strip, the Luxor prides itself on the mysterious. The hotel offers fine and
casual dining, renowned entertainment and attractions.
Perhaps no hotel in the world has as grand and mystical an air as Luxor. Contained inside a 30-story black
glass pyramid and a pair of stepped-pyramid towers is all the splendor of ancient Egypt and all the technological wonders of the modern world, paired with the no-holds-barred showmanship that made Vegas
into an adjective.
Luxor incorporates so many amenities that it's almost an entire vacation in itself. The spacious rooms are done
in all manner of Eastern finery, and surround the world's largest atrium. The Oasis Spa is one of the best of its kind, located in the Luxor's cool and verdant pool area. Dining choices run from fresh
seafood in the Sacred Sea Room to the gourmet delights of Isis. The Ra nightclub features world-class DJs and a bustling dance floor. The attractions floor is an exciting testing ground for cutting-edge
film and ride technology, featuring a motion simulator designed by pioneering special effects wizard Douglas Trumbull, a two-story video arcade and the spectacular IMAX Theatre, with its giant screen (68
feet tall by 48 feet wide) and 15,000-watt digital sound system. And the casino, at over 100,000 feet, is one of Vegas' biggest.
This fully-encompassing environment demands slack-jawed amazement, and few have walked away without according
it. With modern marvels married to the sedate majesty of the City Of The Living, Luxor fully deserves its self-appointed title as "The Newest Wonder Of The World."
