The Excalibur is one of the grandest hotels in Las Vegas and is considered one of the best in the city. This is already an amazing feat considering that the medieval-themed hotel is just into its 6th year of operation, as it opened in 2008.
That said, many hotel reviewers say that the Excalibur may have not yet reached its full potential and certain improvements can definitely increase the hotel’s stock. The 28-storey hotel boasts 3,981 rooms in two towers. The hotel has also several theaters, stores, and restaurants to keep their guests entertained. And since it is Las Vegas, it’s not grand if there is no casino in it.
13. Caesars Palace, Las Vegas
