Here is a picture of the room the next morning (I got in around 3AM Vegas time, so I was in no mood to take pictures of the room when it was clean.) Pretty nice room overall. Nice new HD TV and comfy beds. Bathroom was a little on the small side, especially for Vegas which typically has a larger than average hotel bathroom. The second picture is a view from my room (Rm #17128) of the pool area and the Rio casino in the distance.

My husband and I stayed in the Mirage for 10 days in May and the hotel exceeded all my expectations from the minute we checked in. We were offered a free upgrade at check in to a Tower Suite room on the 24th floor, which was great, giving us a fabulous view of the strip. We also had an express elevator which only accessed the 24th & 25th floors meaning that you never had to wait! The rooms were big (most are in Vegas are), very clean and had the most comfortable bed i have ever slept in. The rooms were really modern, bright with flatscreen tv and ipod dock.
This was the first strip hotel that i've stayed in when in Vegas and my concern before i booked was that it would be to big and impersonal, however the Mirage seem to have everything well placed & you didn't have to walk a mile to get from your room to the pool. And talking of the pool, it was amazing with waterfalls, loads of sun loungers (you do have to be early to get a good spot) and didn't feel that you were right in the middle of the strip. I will definitely be back for another visit!

I stayed at the Mirage for 5 nights in June 2009. Arrived at the hotel around 9pm. checked in right away at the invited guest check in. Not busy, went right up to my room, which was petite suite on the 24th floor. The suite was large and very nice. One king bed but two bathrooms! One bathroom had a spa tub, the other just a shower. Also the room had a sofa, sitting chair, and a chair in the work area. Room had 2 large screen flat panel tv'.s With connection for MP3 or Ipod. Room also had mini bar and a small fridge which I used.

I ate at the Cravings Buffet, was very good, as it always has been. Good selection, But not the best. I also ate at the Caribe Cafe, meal was good, but they need a larger variety on the menu. Ate at the BLT Burger again, had the TEX MEX burger, very good. But $13.00 for a hamburger is a bit much. Had one piece of pie at the Carnegie Deli. again very good, and large piece of pie, but expensive.

I like the Mirage casino, good variety of slots and table games. Can be a bit dark at night and very crowded. Can be hard to walk around the casino when it is full of people.

Did not see any shows this trip, but have seen "Love'" three times, Highly recommend if your a Beatles fan!! But everyone could enjoy.

Mirage is a very nice place too stay. Much to do there. Easy to walk to Caesars Palace, Venetian, Harrahs. TI. Wynn and Fashion Show Mall. I have more photos of Mirage on my blog http://lasvegasfun.blogspot.com/ feel free to browse!

HOTEL. Here on a whim to see Jason Mraz in concert, we didn't want to spend too much on a one night stay. The Mirage is perfect for what I would consider affordable luxury. It has great restaurants from Katz Deli to the Burger PIT.

STAFF. Friendly and accommodating.

ROOM. Decent size; slightly smaller than your usual Las Vegas hotel rooms.

SHOWER. Small.

LOCATION. Right across from the Venetian and on the Strip.

ATTRACTION & TIP(S). The Volcano show is a bust. Opt for others such as Bellagio's water show or Treasure Island's show.
