There are many fine hotels in Las Vegas to choose from,
but parents traveling with the children are looking for a different kind
of experience than the seasoned gambler. Luckily, there are several fine
hotels in Las Vegas that cater to the younger crowd, ensuring that the
entire family has a great time.
Circus,
Circus is a great choice for a family vacation in Las Vegas. The facility
is comprised of three towers with a connecting sky shuttle, viewed by
most children as the first attraction. The Adventuredome inside the complex
is the world’s largest indoor theme park, and a perfect destination
for some fun with the children. Circus themed shows and wandering performers
abound, and everyone will enjoy the miniature golf, bungee jumping and
choice of over 200 carnival games. Of course, parents will enjoy the 100,000
square foot casino and great restaurants.
Another
family oriented property in Las Vegas is the Excalibur. Designed to replicate
King Arthur’s Camelot home, Excalibur gives children and experience
similar to walking into a fairy tale. Families walk across the moat to
enter the property, and every detail is charming. The first floor of the
hotel is designed especially for kids, full of carnival games and arcades
and themed entertainment. The large pool areas feature a waterfall and
several waterslides, and a popular dinner attraction is the Tournament
of Kings, a show with dragons, jousting, wizards and great food. The large,
themed casino is a treat for parents, as are the other great restaurants
on property.
Another
exciting family hotel is the Luxor, an Egyptian Pyramid set down in Las
Vegas. This great hotel is actually larger than the pyramids in Egypt
and is guarded by an authentically styled Sphinx. The kids will enjoy
the two story video arcade and IMAX theater. All of the rooms have sloped
walls, inviting a geometry lesson, and furniture decorated with Egyptian
symbols. Kids love exploring a recreation of King Tut’s Tomb and
the accompanying museum, said to be quite authentic. There are five pools
on site and a motion simulator ride with an Egyptian theme. Of course,
a spacious casino and several spas join world class restaurants for the
parents to enjoy.
If you’re traveling with younger children and need a
little “alone” time, consider the Orleans Hotel. They’ve created a parent’s
dream with Kids Tyme, an onsite daycare facility with an impressively
large jungle gym, arts and crafts activities and movies. The center is
open 7 days a week and serves children from 2 ˝ years to 12 years old.
Also on site is a huge bowling center with 70 lanes, an 18 theater movie
complex and Tyme Out video arcade. The property also has a pool, spa and
fitness center and a great showroom. Of course, the adjoining casino offers
plenty of opportunity for the adults to enjoy themselves as well.
Consider these fine hotels and make your next trip to
Las Vegas a family affair. Everyone can have a great time in Vegas!
