Excalibur Hotel & Casino - Las Vegas, NV Reviews

The Case

Most of my family was in Vegas this last February for my aunt's wedding, and we all stayed at the Excalibur. It's a nice enough hotel, but I'm reading Last Call right now, by Tim Powers, and in the book, the Excalibur is described as looking 'like the grandest hole in God's own miniature golf course.'

And you know what? It REALLY does!

The Good

The Excalibur is a fun hotel right on the Strip. It's one of the 'big name' hotels, like the MGM Grand, The Luxor, Caesar's Palace, or The Sahara. The location is really great, and you can get to The Luxor and Mandalay Bay by either free tram or indoor...

If you are looking for a hotel that is a good value and located on the strip, the Excalibur is the place to stay.  I have stayed at this hotel 3 times in the last 3 years and I think it is one of the best. 

The staff is very friendly and helpful, you do not wait in line for hours to register for your room and if you arrive and your room is available they do not make you wait until the published 4pm time, they will let you go to your room.  In most cases if the room has not been cleaned they will still allow you to drop off your bags in the room so you can begin your vacation.

The rooms are...

I stayed at the Excaliber in October of 2009 for my brother's wedding.  We were all on a budget and trying to save a few bucks.  The hotel staff was not friendly or welcoming.  When I checked into my room I noticed a broken glass panel in a light fixture.  I called the front desk to advise them, the clerk was short and curt and said she would turn in a work order.  When I go to the room later that night there was a message from the front desk saying maintenance found nothing wrong with the shower glass panel.  Since we had a large group staying at the hotel, I went to the concierge to see...

I found excalibur to be the most exciding place. Even more exciding if your a kid who believes in knights and dragons. The rooms are beautifully done as if you where back in time. The swimming pools are shape so well with little castle around them. The shop have alot of wounderful things to buy that make you want to buy eveything in the shop. The buffet I would have to say is out standing.

The one thing I would recommend is you go see tournament of kings. It is one of the most exciding show I have ever see. The food is good and the action from the show is exciding you'll want to see it again. Alot...

I am local from Las Vegas on the night of August 9 2008 my air conditioned unit broke down so I decide to rent a hotel to spend a night with my family and run away from my hot house.

The kids have fun at the pool; we rent a cabana to follow the Olympics'

Games.

We when back to the room at 8:00 PM after they close the pool take a shower and order a movie at 8:59PM.

Monday we have breakfast at the buffet and them we check out, when we have the final bill after spent a couple hundred on food and drinks them they charge me for a movie that didn't rent $10.99 I told them that I never rent that movie...

If you are not super picky about where you stay when in Vegas the Excalibur may be for you. Their room rates are usually affordable and less than most hotels on the strip. It is not the most modern hotel and is one of the 1st ones to be on the south strip. The rooms are fine, nothing fancy and the table games are usually more affordable than some other resorts. Directly across the street(you can access by bridge) is New York casino for better restaurants than the ones in Excalibur. Ate at the buffet in Excalibur on my last visit and did not care much for it. It is in a good location to go...
