Many folks have a problem with Excalibur, but I dona't. It is a very good budget hotel. The widescreen rooms are decent. 42 inch TV, regular type bed, but the bathrooms are probably the best feature. Never spent much time at the pool, but I hear it was recently refurbi'd. If the price is right, IM'd say go for it.
I thought the widescreen room at Excalibur was nice and comfortable. We consider that our o"luckyS" casino because we almost always win something there and enjoy gambling there. We also like that location because we like the MGM properties and that 's where we do most of our gambling. The pool area is really nice. The food selection is not so nice, do not eat at the buffet, but there are alot of good food choices close by. All-in-all, I think Excalibur is a great budget hotel.
When you think about the rooms at Excalibur, all you can think of is old, wooden and dark decor, small bathrooms, cheap beds, and tacky everything. Oddly, the Excalibur is one of MGM Mirage's most profitable hotels, mainly because it appeals to families and everything is just cheap. I was really surprised to see an offer come in the mail for two complimentary nights in a newly remodeled room at a hotel that I rarely play at. I hadn't stayed at the Excalibur since the 90's, and was somewhat curious about how the widescreen rooms turned out. I picked up the phone, dialed 1-877-750-5464, and booked my complimentary widescreen room.
