The Mirage

The Mirage Volcano large size

Another Steve Wynn masterpiece.

The Mirage – thanks to a few nip and tucks – has managed to stand the test of time. I stay here a lot. I like the location. The rooms aren’t huge or fancy, but they are perfectly serviceable and I like the modern décor (no beige here).

There are lots of restaurant and Rhumbar, with it outside patio, gives you the chance to sit outside and people-watch on the Strip – a real Vegas treat. The Mirage is also home to Cirque Du Soleil’s Beatles-themed ‘Love’, my favourite show in the Strip.

Downsides to the Mirage are that it is always extremely busy in the communal areas. Anyone who has tried to drag suitcases through the rainforest atrium past hordes of tourists taking photos after a long haul flight will know what I mean…

There are also lots of kids here which can kill the Vegas vibe a bit. Although most of the kids are just passing through to get to the animal habitat to see the dolphins.

Also, recently I have noticed the cocktail waitresses to be a little slow and inefficient; hopefully this is just a temporary thing.
