I’ve never been a big fan of Las Vegas, nor of the Strip. I recently stayed at the Luxor Hotel which is a pretty massive Egyptian-themed hotel and casino, replete with pyramids and Sphinxes. (For a review of my suite at the Luxor, see, This is What a $48 Hotel Suite Looks Like in Vegas).
I didn’t know what the fitness center at the Luxor Hotel would be like, but I was pleasantly surprised! It’s large, clean, well-equipped and conducive to working out.
