Luxor....Pyramid Room or Tower Room?

I told my husband that for his birthday, I had booked Monte Carlo, but then told him about the parking garage and that we could do valet or just park at NY, NY after we check in. Of course, he wasn%26#39;t overly thrilled. He is just protective of his car and he just likes the idea of being able to check on her every once in awhile...usually on a week vacation, he%26#39;ll go to the car maybe 1-2 times. Mainly because his old car, we were at a hotel and the car next to us just kept hitting his door, they ended up parking over their lines, so since then, he likes having the chance to just keep an eye on her.

With that said, I did get an email on Thursday from Luxor....$69 for all 5 nights, which is Thanksgiving week. He is cool with staying there, he%26#39;s cool with staying pretty much anywhere, it%26#39;s his birthday and he is ready for a vacation!

If you have stayed at Luxor...do you recommend the Pyramid rooms or Tower rooms? I would like the pyramid, because that seems to be the whole reason to stay there, but i want to make sure that it%26#39;s a good room.

any suggestions?

thanks,

Charlene

It%26#39;s not. Forget the whole pyramid concept. The Tower Rooms are much nicer. The pyramid rooms feel like your on a room on a ship (especially with that slanted ceiling). You should just take the elevator for a spin and you%26#39;ll have some fun going sideways. But that pyramid gimmick wears off after 5 minutes and you%26#39;ll appreciate the square, and more spacious Tower Rooms. Just my two cents.

I liked my pyramid room. it actually had a fan in the bathroom, hard to find in vegas or anywhere.

When lounging on the bed, the Red rock mountains were framed nicely in the window. Being on the big atrium was cool. The room was big enough and nice enough

Two points.

We stayed at a corner room in the pyramid, and we enjoyed our regular room at a different resort much more. Go square.

Secondly, didn%26#39;t know if you were aware that the parking garage at Luxor is two floors, with the top floor exposed to the elements. There is a pedestrian bridge from the parking garage over a street into the Luxor.

At that time of year, finding an isolated spot away from careless people swinging their car doors shouldn%26#39;t be a problem.

I hear they cheat you out of part of a wall in the pyramid room.

They should offer a discount for that since you%26#39;re not getting a full room.

When we stayed in February we had a room on the 9th floor of the Pyramid and it was nice. Clean, not smoky, no noise. I have read that the tower rooms are nicer, maybe more frills than what we had (we had a standard room). But that%26#39;s my $.02

tower

We have stayed 3 times in a Tower Room. They are much bigger than the pryamid .The tower rooms have a tub and walk in shower. The pryamid only has a shower. This tells you that the rooms are smaller. The tower rooms have floor to celing windows. We always have asked for a tower room in he east tower because it is nearer to the main hotel than the west tower. Ask for a high floor facing the front i.e. strip . We have had 19315 and 20315 two queen beds.

wow-changing plans beacuse of the car!

what kind of car is it anyways???
