General Description
The Mirage Hotel & Casino is one of the most beautiful and elegant hotels in Las Vegas. As you enter the Mirage Hotel & Casino from the strip you are greeted by a beautiful lush tropical waterfall and volcano. The senses continue to be stimulated as you enter the hotel with a huge aquarium behind the front desk and lush tropical gardens. The hotel provides excellent service and is a full service hotel with all of the services that anyone could require. These include of course the casino, restaurants, fine dining, coffee shops, gorgeous pool, shops, conference facilities, and ample parking. With the exception of the casino, the hotel is marble throughout.
The Mirage hotel and casino has recently updated the casino
and other parts of the hotel. In 2009 when we were there they had completed
Kokomos, making it a more modern area and removing the tropical atmosphere.
The bars, the high roller area and the entrance to the theater had also been
changed. All of these changes are meant to attract a more hip crowd to the
Mirage hotel . The rooms have also been updated.
Please note that the former white tiger area is no longer
available and has been replaced with a brand new restaurant. It looks great,
however we have not dined in this restaurant. The Mirage is beside Treasure
Island and Ceasars. Harrahs and
the Venetian are directly across the
street making this location a prime place to stay in the middle of all of the
action. These four hotels alone comprise over 15,000 rooms between them.
This hotel and casino complex has been awarded a rating of 8.75 out of a maximum of 10.
