There's no need to get out your Indiana Jones costume, here the treasure of the pyramids has already been discovered. When you arrive at the Luxor, you enter the mythical world of the pharaohs and Cleopatra. The Luxor hotel will delight young and old alike who dream of this historic period. Others will find the decor a little kitsch, but unique all the same.
Hotels are the beating heart of Las Vegas. Without them, the city would not be the extravagant, bright and surprising place it is today. But choosing where to spend the night can be a challenge, given the impressive range of hotels on offer in Las Vegas. To make things a little clearer, the editorial team has put the spotlight on ten of the most emblematic addresses on the Strip, the most famous avenue in Las Vegas. Booking a room in one of these hotels is your guarantee of a successful stay in the city of all sins, as it is nicknamed.
1. Le Luxor
A total of 4,400 rooms are spread between the gigantic pyramid and the two towers that frame it.
The colour code of ancient Egypt is respected, with sand-coloured elements, gilding, columns, hieroglyphs... we are plunged into Cleopatra's world. From the rooms on the upper floors, the view of the Nevada desert transports us even further into the arid world of the Egyptian temples.
A special mention goes to the hotel lobby, located at the base of the pyramid. Somewhat flashy with its gilding and omnipresent marble, it is nonetheless impressive with its palm trees, original shape and immense ceiling height.

Who has never heard of the Bellagio? A hotel made world-famous by the film Ocean Eleven. This imposing building is a real eye-catcher, and is even more impressive at night when lit up by the ballet of fountains. Good taste and class are the order of the day in this casino hotel, decorated in a very Italian Renaissance style.
With almost 4,000 rooms and over 500 suites, the Bellagio shows off its top-of-the-range standards on the Strip. Classic and refined, the decor is carefully thought out. Every detail counts: vases, lamps, fabrics and bed linen... everything blends perfectly to create a harmonious and peaceful whole.
It's impossible to talk about the Bellagio without mentioning the incredible water show that brings the Strip to life. Every 30 minutes during the day, from 3pm onwards, and every 15 minutes at nightfall, this choreography amazes passers-by and guests alike.

The rooms are very spacious and soberly decorated, always in the service of good taste and elegance. With so many assets and so few shortcomings, it would be a shame to travel to Las Vegas and miss the Paris Las Vegas. The excellent location and top-of-the-range level of comfort will not go unappreciated.

Surprising though it may be, the New York New York is considered a 'small' hotel on the Strip. And yet, with its buildings, you'd think you were in the heart of the Big Apple. But one clue proves that we are indeed in the city of entertainment par excellence: a rollercoaster that slaloms through New York-style buildings, passing the Statue of Liberty and skirting around the reproduction of Ellis Island.
The city of New York is also reflected in the rooms, with their sober, warm decor creating a cosy, intimate atmosphere. It's a real little cocoon.

Hotel with a New York feel8. The Mandalay Bay
This immense golden building is impressive. It appears in the Nevada desert like an immense golden ingot in which the sun is reflected. Its silhouette is in perfect harmony with its features. Luxury and quality.
Its imposing architecture hides a giant aquarium full of sharks against a reef backdrop. And other aquariums. There's no need to be intransigent when it comes to relaxation, as the pool area boasts the most beautiful in all of Vegas.
While the hotels on the Strip race to be the most original and the most incredible, the Mandalay Bay is ahead of the game, as one of its many facilities is a real beach surrounding the swimming pool. You can relax with your feet in the warm sand, as if you were in a paradise in South-East Asia.
