Room Quality:
The rooms at Excalibur Hotel and Casino Vegas are clean, on the small side, furnished and have showers, but no tubs. Ask for one of the "wide screen" rooms and get newer furnishings, granite counter tops, better beds and a flat-screen TV. Excalibur Las Vegas might not be the height of luxury, but if you're on a family vacation where the kids won't care about the room anyway or you're just a hard-core bargain hunter, the rooms here will get the job done. Excalibur Vegas promo codes can also make these rooms hard to turn down for anyone looking to save some cash.
Service Quality:
If you're traveling with kids, Excalibur Hotel and Casino Vegas has tons of stuff for them to eat and do (at extra cost - this is Vegas, after all). Check-in can be time-consuming at just about any hour, but especially try to avoid Thursday and Friday afternoons.
What You Get Bottles of in the Bathroom:
Lotion, shampoo and conditioner - the basics. This is Excalibur Las Vegas, not the Bellagio.
Clientele:
If you have a family, you'll fit in at Excalibur Las Vegas.
How's the Pool?
The landscaped pool area at Excalibur Hotel and Casino Vegas has a few small pools so they can separate the kids from the adults more easily. There are also cabanas, if you feel inclined to splurge.
Resort Fee:
$15 per night gets you access to the fitness center and spa at Excalibur Las Vegas, as well as a daily newspaper and local and long-distance calling. If you have kids these rooms might not come in all that handy so look for Excalibur Las Vegas promo codes that get rid of those pesky resort fees.
Is it Worth It?
Bring the kids along on your Vegas trip and this place will enchant them. If you aren't traveling with kids this place is only worth it to hard core bargain hunters who don't mind little people and cheesy themes.Hotel Amenities

Table Games:
They have all of the usuals at Excalibur Hotel and Casino Vegas, and loads of tables crammed in. They even have the oddballs like Caribbean Stud, Let it Ride and 3-card poker. Craps are in line with the competition, but some blackjack only pays a 6:5 on blackjacks.
Bet Minimums:
$5 at some tables in the joint. For craps, you will usually find the minimum to be $5 with 3-4-5x odds. Roulette is $1 chips with a $5 minimum.
Machines:
Pennies on up. There are many video-poker machines and none of them are full-pay. There are thousands of slots to choose from at Excalibur Las Vegas, so you will easily find your game of choice in a denomination you want.
Cocktails?
Sometimes the cocktails tend to not come as frequently as we may like.
Who Gets Comps?
The M Life slot club serves several properties and pays a fair cash rebate on slots, and a half that on video poker. They also occasionally mail out free and discounted room offers or Excalibur Las Vegas coupons.

Number of TVs:
About 36, all flat and one of them is a giant screen for big events.
Number of Seats:
About 130 seats all told. None of them are reserved. Race seats are uncfomfortable but sports are better. Twenty-six seats in racing have individual flat screens.
Number of Betting Windows:
At any given time there are about eight windows for taking race and sports bets.
Free Drinks?
Very rarely, if at all. Boo.
Snack Bar?
No snack bar, but a Starbucks is there to make you feel invincible.
Other Notes:
They have race and sports facing different directions. The room also serves as the keno lounge, which is becoming pretty common in the casinos.
Number of Tables:
There are twelve tables in the Excalibur, which has done away with its experiment with electronic tables. It is now once again regular old poker dealt by real live human beings. About four to six tables go most of the time.
Comfort of Chairs:
Decent chairs at average tables. The chairs are slightly above average in comfort.
Closed Room or Open to Casino?
Open and right on the casino floor.
Game Spreads and Limits:
Hold-em, and hold'em only. Apparently that's the only thing the Knights of the Round Table played. They have $1-$2 no-limit and $2-$4 limit, both of which are pretty low-limit games.
Beginner Games or Classes:
The staff at Excalibur Las Vegas will teach you how to play each day at 11 am. This is a good thing to do if you've never played in a casino before, if only so you know the etiquette of when it's appropriate to jump to your feet, shout an expletive and overturn the table.
How Crowded is the Room?
Not busy. On a busy weekend you may have to wait up to a half hour, but usually there are enough dealers and tables to get you in right away, if you don't care which table you play at.
Comps?
One buck an hour plus other promos for players.
How Good Are the Players?
Not very good.
What Else Do I Need to Know?
Saturday night they have a "Strip" poker tournament where you don't take any clothes off, but a sexy woman does in increments, ending with her wearing underwear. This is obviously the not-kid-friendly part of Excalibur where King Arthur likes to hang out when Guenevere goes off with Lancelot again.
Excalibur Hotel Casino Guest Rooms
Standard Room
These rooms at Excalibur can be exactly what the kiddies have always dreamed about. All the standard rooms are castle-themed and come with one king bed or two queen beds. You can pay for Internet access if the kids are too annoying and you need to veg out. Or just put them in front of the 42 inch plasma TV with pay movies. Excalibur Vegas promo codes can sometimes get you these rooms at a steal, making it worth it even if you don't have kids.
Wide Screen Room
The Wide Screen rooms at Excalibur Las Vegas are in the Spa Tower so you have easy access to the Royal Treatment Spa. Didn't you know King Arthur loves facials? Get one king or two queen beds, a dining set and granite counters in the bathroom. You still get the same 42 inch plasma TV, but they spice up the technology with an iPod dock and clock radio. You can pay for Internet in these rooms too.

We stayed at this hotel last weekend for our wedding. We picked this hotel because it was cheap, but didn't expect it to be as awful as it was. We had 22 people with us so we booked 12 rooms - which you would think they would be happy to have us all there, not the case. I paid $20 to upgrade our room and we ended up having the same room as 4 other people we were with, who paid less than we did. I asked the person at the front desk about it and they couldn't have cared less and said that I could talk to the supervisor about it but that they probably wouldn't change our room or take away the fee. I walked away. A week before we were flying to Vegas, I called the hotel and told them that we had 24 people coming (including us) and asked if there was any sort of transportation or anything that they had to get us all from the airport to the hotel. I told them that I would be happy to pay for it. They told me no, their limos are reserved for the high rollers. Ok, I can handle that. I asked if we could have a limo to transport everyone to my wedding that was Saturday, again, no, you're not a high roller. So, I said ok, thanks and hung up. The beds are hard, the rooms smell funny and don't appear to be incredibly clean. There were no blankets on the beds, just double sheets. We asked for a King bed, and was told that they don't have King beds available. Really? I don't need 2 beds. I had to steal the double sheets off of the other queen sized bed in our room so i didn't freeze to death because the heater was less than adequate. The people at the front desk are rude and they don't seem happy to have a job, or your business. I told them we were getting married and I got a oh, that's nice. No congrats or anything. The casino is really smoky, not like the other casinos. There is an overwhelming smell of fake rose perfume that's in the entry way that made me want to gag everytime I came in the door.The nicest part of my trip was taking my bags to the holding area next to checkout. The men there were very nice and helpful. They put our bags on a cart and when we were ready to leave they brought our bags to the curb and hailed a taxi for us and loaded them. Checkout was a different story. The line is REALLY long and the people at the desk are still VERY rude.I will never stay at this hotel again. We spent most of our time in the other hotels on the strip and enjoyed every one of them. DON'T STAY HERE. IT IS AWFUL.kaylamead0ws would Not recommend to a friend

Excalibur Las Vegas - mommy loves the entertainment and starbucks!
Posted Jul 23 ,2011
This hotel is perfect for those who want to experience the strip but are traveling with small children. Tons of childrens entertainment and another bonus; two starbucks on the property. Excalibur has several attractions that will make this vacation unforgettable. They have the Spongebob 4-D ride and an arcade called the Fun Dungeon. The best event is their Tournament of Kings. Its a dinner show and children under 4 are admitted free. Its an hour and half show with a three course meal. Also its a NON SMOKING event!!! So when traveling with kids a good pool is key. The Excalibur has a great pool with a slide. What makes the pool guilt free when little ones are splashing and yelling is the fact that there is also an ADULT only pool so if someone is traveling without kiddos they can head over to that one. You wont have to worry about people rolling their eyes when your kids does a canon ball.

Kid friendly, not adult

Kid friendly, not adultThe Excalibur is ok, the rooms were clean and the staff in the hotel were nice, it's only when you see all the other hotels that you realize that there are alot better places to stay, its great if you are on a budget or have kids, there are kids all over the place. We got the room at a really great rate...we know better next time to avoid the Excalibur, only because we wanted to have a grown up vacation and in all reality, we didn't.would recommend to a friend

Excalibur Hotel and amp; CasinoStayed at Excalibur for 4 nights and found it to be fine. I was a little disappointed as we had booked a "view room" and the view was not great it overlooked the airport. The location was convenient and the room amenities were fine. Nothing spectacular but clean, comfortable and adequate. Cleanliness in corridors was not always up to par, but no problems with the room. I would use this hotel again and the price was decent.Hello4 would recommend to a friend

Great Time For All
Posted Jun 03 ,2009
Our family found Excalibur to be perfect. Reasonable rates, good room, wide selection of foods, pool, arcade, friendly and helpful staff. I didn't see the medieval jesters, jugglers, etc but that's OK. Great location for viewing the strip and good shopping in the resort and nearby. Four Stars!Psychoman67 f would recommend to a friend

Nasty smokehouse, bad food, lousy room amenities, and where the heck is my luggage?
Posted Jun 03 ,2009
Nasty smokehouse, bad food, lousy room amenities, and where the heck is my luggage?When we pulled into the parking lot, it was nearly impossible to figure out where to pull up if you didn't want valet. (We never do). When I tried to get a luggage cart, the baggage attendant said "It's ok, I'll get it for you", but he took the baggage away claiming he'd bring it right up for us. 45 minutes after wife called for luggage, It arrived but nearly 20 minutes after the time stated it had left the baggage area. When I asked about the refrigerator that was supposed to come with the room. The polite employee informed me that they had to be requested, and that it was $20 more per day. Rather steep for an old, worn looking $100 refrigerator. He was kind enough to waive the fee, however. The advertised coffee maker was apparently not really included either. Along with a bath mat, or a place to hang a towel within reach of the shower. This is also the most expensive hotel I have EVER stayed at that didn't include wireless internet access. You can hard wire up to a LAN line for $12.99 a day, or we found wi-fi in the neighborhood of $7 an HOUR! I can't recall EVER having a hotel ask for money for it. Usually they either offer it free, or not at all. A call to the front desk confirmed that they did not offer coffee makers or microwaves. Motel 6 usually has coffee makers, and I don't remember paying more than $60 for a room without a microwave before. The bathroom was otherwise nice enough, but a shower/tub combo would have been easier to bathe the four year old. Speaking of the kids, it was impossible to get ANYWHERE in or around the entire building without walking through what has to be the smokiest casino I've ever encountered. Since there is no escaping these areas, we would have really preferred they up the ventilation a bit. The arcade area was a lot better, with "No smoking" signs posted prominently, there was a lot LESS smoking down there. Too bad that only one change machine could be found in a back corner that worked. Made it much harder to let the kids play. Saved a bit on video games, though. Got back to the room around 12:30, to find that housekeeping had not been there. A call to housekeeping was met with a snippy employee who said they'd be up, "Straight away". They eventually came after I left. They must have missed the plastic ice bucket full of water outside of our door. It was there when we checked in, and I tripped over it the next night, accidentally spilling water all over the hallway carpet. It disappeared the next day. During our stay we tried both their buffet and Cafe. I didn't know it was possible to master mediocrity quite so well. The food at the buffet was difficult to eat, and would have been considered pricy for the selection even if it had been prepared well. I was pleased at how cheerfully the busser was to clean my table of the food remaining on it after the hostess seated us. Apparrently, the 2nd time was the charm. Sherwood Forest Cafe proved that even breakfast can be done poorly, as my "Spicy" something-or-other omellete was about as flavorful as plain scrambled eggs, but for the fact that it was topped with a salsa that tasted like catsup with pre-cooked onions stirred into it. At least it gave me something to ponder while walking halfway across the smokey casino with the kids looking for the bathroom, as there wasn't one in or near the cafe. When I tried to pay with my Visa, the employee insisted I either sign the back, or write the words "Check ID" on the back with her sharpie. She explained that the management was very strict about this, so she could not accept my card without one or the other. I finally complied. The next employee I handed it to didn't even look at the back of the card less than 10 minutes later, or ask for ID. We did enjoy the "Tournament of Kings" Dinner show, even though it was a blatant Medeval Times imitation. The authenticity was even replicated in the food, proven by how authentically the Cornish Game Hens were prepared. I don't think anyone has been able to make them quite that dry in centuries! They could only offer soda for the kids to drink, because apparently milk and juices were not yet invented in the era they were depicting. When we noticed kids in another waiters area drinking milk, I was able to verbally wrestle our waiter into doing the same. He returned about 15 minutes later with ONE milk in a styrofoam cup. For over $61 per person, including our 4 year old, we would have also liked a restroom there as well instead of having to leave and wander the arcade looking for it during the meal. Children 3 and under are allowed to sit on a parents lap and share their meal, all others pay full price. No discount offered for guests of the hotel. "Dick's Last resort" was not bad. This is a franchise where the main hook is that the service is poor and the help is blatantly rude. I believe the Excalibur found themselves the perfect proprietors, as this is there specialty anyway. The food wasn't bad, and I'd go there again, the only reason I would enter the Excalibur again. In short, there are only 2 reasons I can think of to enter the Excalibur: 1: Dicks Last Resort. This is the only one for hundreds of miles, and the experience is one not to miss. 2: You're a smoker, you're already in Vegas, on that end of the strip, and you're out of cigarettes. And money.cbecker72 would recommend to a friend

Cheap, close to lots of attractions
Posted Jun 03 ,2009
Cheap, close to lots of attractions. I recently returned from a trip to Vegas and stayed at Excalibur for the third time in as many years. The price, for its location on the South Strip, is UNBEATABLE. I mean, really, how much are you in your hotel room in Vegas?!? Yes, it is dated and a little cheesy looking, but it was a bed and a bathroom and that's all we really needed. The casino is nice sized and very uncrowded compared to others in the vicinity. The food court has a good selection of standard fast-food fare, and there actually a couple of respectable, reasonably priced sit-down restaurants on the property. And, the pool has been well upgraded recently. So, if you are looking to spend your money in Vegas on something other than an over-priced hotel room that you will hardly spend anytime in, I highly recommend Excalibur!sexyman2011 would recommend to a friend

Rooms, well, I only stayed in the Tower 2 renovated (widescreen) room, and it was very nice. Everything new and a comfortable bed, but I've heard horror stories about the rooms yet to be renovated.
