History of Mirage
Opened on November 22, 1989 at a then staggering cost of $630 million bucks, the Mirage is one of the crown jewels of the Las Vegas Strip. The once and future (?) home of Sigfried and Roy-Boy, hosts the White Tiger habitat, an Aquarium, Christian Comedian Danny Gans, Dolphin Habitat, a giant Volcano and a shit-load of slot machines.
How are the rooms at Mirage?
The Mirage offers some of the nicest rooms on the Strip. Both Guest Rooms and Suites are available. Guest rooms feature elegant furnishings, Minibars, Marble bathrooms, safes and all the other stuff you'd expect. We haven't stayed here since they renovated the rooms in 2002, but they were nice in 1996 - probably nicer now. Guest suites come in 4 flavors: Petite Suite (w/Whirlpool tub), Hospitality Suite (includes airport limo, seperate living and dining rooms), Tower Suites (one or two bedrooms, whirlpool, bathrobes, view plus limousine) Penthouse Suite (Bathrobes/Slippers, Whirlpool, seperate Living and Dining rooms plus limousine, Danny Gans tickets, tee times and probably a butler.)
What restaurants are at Mirage?
The Mirage offers 6 types of fine dining restaurants ranging from French to Chops to Teppanyaki to Italian to Chinese. Casual food includes a number of Cafes, Buffet, Snack Bars, Ice Cream Shops, CPK and a coffee joint (not Starbucks)
Where is Mirage Located?
Right in the center of the Strip. A walkway connects the Mirage to Treasure Island - to us they seem like one giant Casino. Different, but not much.
Exclusive Tips for Mirage:
Danny Gans is a Christian evangelical so expect to hear a little preachin during his show. Also, if you're one of the Everybody who loves Raymond go check out Ray Romano's show there. Wayne Brady also appears at the Mirage.
For those of us who prefer the company of animals, Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat offers white tigers, white lions, panthers, leopards, a four-ton Thai elephant and a dolphin habitat. Lush gardens add to the volcano out front and the 20,000-gallon saltwater aquarium at reception. While you are checking in, be sure to check out the angelfish, puffer fish, tangs, and sharks. Nice pool, too.

The opening of the Mirage in 1989 signaled a change in all resorts in Las Vegas. Gone were cheap eats, lousy entertainment and cheap rooms. We offered a higher standard of luxury, but still affordable to the family traveler.

Had a great time. Some of the various reviews that I read before I went in March had me concerned. They were all unfounded in my experience over the 5 nights I spent there. I picked the Mirage this trip because of the location. My other trips had always been at NYNY and this time I wanted to be further north to spend some serious time around this end.The staff were extremely friendly and helpful at the front desk for both check in and check out. I had a tower deluxe King room on the 24th floor with a view of the volcano which was out of commission for a revamp. The room was a decent size for me (I was by myself in the room) and always clean. The bathroom was very nice with a separate shower and jet bathtub. One downside to the bathtub is that it's not really a good size to lay down in. I'm 5' 10" and wasn't able to submerge my torso without having my feet sticking out of the thing. One other thing to address are the room doors. Yes, they do slam if you let them go. It's a flaw that can be very easily fixed by people closing the doors instead of letting them go. Take the extra 3 seconds (I timed it) and show some respect to your fellow guests.The room service was always delivered in the time frame they said which was usually about 45 minutes. I suppose that could be a little long for some but the food was always hot and the place is huge so a little patience is required. We ate 3 times at Cravings. the buffet at the Mirage and were never disappointed. Great selection, good service and we only had to wait once for 5 minutes. You do want to time it well though, because walking by sometimes I noticed quite a line to get into the place, which has a lot of seating as well so you shouldn't be waiting long.We had a great time at the casino it self. I might not be the right person to ask about the games as I don't have a lot of experience with gambling and stick to the machines mostly. The machines paid out pretty good in my mind though as I played for a lot of time during my 6 days there and my money didn't seem to get sucked away that fast. The drink service was great too. I was rarely without a beer in my hand and the ladies were always around and fast with the drinks after ordering.My next overnight trip is already booked at the Mirage again for September with 5 other guys to drink and gamble and drink and I'm already looking forward to it.

My go-to property when Wynn is either full or too expensive to justify. I love The Mirage, even with the changes that have gone down in the last two years. This place has staying power.

Great Location, Worn rooms, Excellent Dining options, Big, One of top clubs (JET), I compare this to Mandalay only swap rooms at Mandalay to Mirage and it would be a must stay for me every time. The only mark I can find agains Mirage is the rooms are smaller and not updated.

I think that the mirage is a very good hotel. (nice remodel!) the thing I like about the mirage is that it is a very warm, cozy, tropical place. They have the best dining in the area. California Pizza Kitchen. There rooms are very colorful and a nice sized room. The service is fantastic and hope to stay there again.

Swanky by our standards. The gambling is way outta our league. We're all about the 9/7 quarter slots. the odds here are not good and it'll cost ya at least five bucks a hand in video poker. The Hotel is amazing though.

An old favorite of mine with a vibe that still remains tops in the city despite major renovations. Besides its standard rooms that don't compare in size to the newer players in town, everything else is top notch. The suites are highly recommended.

The Mirage is a nice hotel! The animal habitat was kinda cool, but very expensive to see. Seems like the MGM-Mirage corporation is catering this joint to high rollin' family types. The one plus, if traveling with shopping types, the Forum Shops are right next door from the enterance of the Mirage.

Hotel room was just OK, but the pool was fabulous! We rented a cabana and it was heaven.

It used to be a goofy Disney-esque family trap. But here's one of the few places where the de-theming worked. It now has a swanky 50's coconut lounge vibe to it. Just stay out of Montecore's way!

Loved it. The new version that is. This place is back and in a big way. They were not quite done with it while I was there July 2007. Unfortunately the spa was not complete so can't comment; went across the way to the spa at TI. It was ok, but I digress. The Mirage is awesome, the drink service was eh, but the pit bosses and the craps tables were hot. The dining is much better than the review for Kokomo's lets on. I believe that for the average bon vivant the dining options will do just fine. Why be a snob, if you know the finer things in life and your at the Mirage you will be aware that they surround you. Japonais is delightful, the deli and its gefilte fish will hit the spot at around 3am. The pool is a paradise and a cabana on a 4 day bender is just the thing. Did I mention the service is par excelence. By the way Olga the pit boss is a Grande Dame, be nice to her I want her where I left her.
