My Mirage Suite

Mirage an Oasis in the Desert

Back from another vacation in Las Vegas. Stayed at the Mirage Hotel, this was my second time to stay there. Arrived in Vegas a little after 8pm and made it out of the airport in good time. I had made reservations with ODS(On Demand Sedan & Limo) for airport shuttle to the Mirage. But I was met by one of their limo drivers. Cost me over $60.00 for the limo ride. So don't use the ODS website until they have it working properly. The limo driver called the office to report what happened. So hopefully they are working on this. But the ride in the limo to the hotel was good.

Arrived at the Mirage just before 9pm. Used the invited guest check in line. No waiting, I was the only person checking in. Room was alert and off I went. The first time I stayed here I was in a deluxe tower room. This trip I used an e-mail offer from the Mirage for a petite suite room. The suite was very nice and spacious. One bed, but two bathrooms. One bath just had a shower, the other bath had a spa tub. Had two large screen flat panel tv's. Of course the over priced mini bar, but this suite did have a small fridge. Used the fridge, that was nice.
The suite is located on the 24th floor. Used the elevators that is just dedicated to the 24th and 25th floors. Not much wait and speedy.

I like the Mirage casino. Large, good variety of slots and table games. But in many areas the slots are cramped. Not much space to walk between. Many old favorite slots and always new slots to try. Not much luck this time in the casino at the Mirage.

I did east at the BLT Burger restaurant again. Also at the Cravings Buffet and the Carnegie Deli for dessert. Thirteen dollars for a hamburger at BLT. I had the Tex-Mex burger, very good. But still a bit pricey for a hamburger. The buffet at Cravings was about the same as all the other times I have been there. Good quality and variety of food. Just had some pie at the Carnegie Deli. It was just ok. I did not think it was anything special. But the deli is always crowded and it is open 24 hours.

The Mirage is still doing some renovations to the front area of the casino and where the white tiger den area used to be. They have a new rum bar in there with seating also outside by the walkway. They were working on the volcano, so did not see if has improved any since my last visit.

I do highly recommend the Mirage as an excellent hotel to visit. Very nice rooms, good restaurants, always a busy casino. The entertainment there and shopping are more ways to spend your time. Or relax at the pool and chill out.

Make sure to visit and spend some time at the Mirage on your next trip to Las Vegas!
