Current property details

Sources checked September 4, 2026 on the live ThingsVegas hotel brief.

• Luxor’s 30-story black pyramid and Sky Beam distinguish it from conventional Strip hotel towers.
• More than 4,400 rooms and suites are divided between slanted-wall Pyramid rooms and the twin Luxor Towers.
• The five-acre Oasis Pool complex has multiple pools, cabanas, and seasonal daybeds.
• Current resident entertainment includes Blue Man Group, Carrot Top, and FANTASY, alongside Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition.
• TENDER Steakhouse + Lounge, Diablo’s Cantina, and the Backstage Deli are among the property’s listed dining venues.
• The complimentary south-Strip tram connects Luxor with Mandalay Bay and Excalibur.

Luxor’s real comparison is with Excalibur and Mandalay Bay, not the center Strip. Excalibur is more overtly family-focused and often simpler, while Mandalay Bay offers a more upscale pool-led experience. Luxor sits between them: the Pyramid makes the stay visually distinctive, the Towers give a conventional alternative, and the tram makes a multi-resort day feasible without changing hotels.
