Hotels on the South Las Vegas Strip

The South Strip runs from the Welcome to Las Vegas sign north to the MGM Grand — a walkable cluster of major casino resorts with some of the most recognizable architecture in the city and consistently lower rates than central Strip properties.

Luxor is the South Strip's standout budget option — an iconic pyramid with nearly 6,000 verified reviews, direct walkability to MGM Grand, Excalibur, and Mandalay Bay, and the most-reviewed budget rate in Las Vegas at $79. The South Strip is a self-contained entertainment corridor that's less congested than the central Strip without sacrificing resort amenities.

Frequently asked questions

What hotels are on the South Las Vegas Strip?

TripSignal covers the South Strip cluster: Luxor and Excalibur for budget icons, New York-New York for themed mid-tier, MGM Grand for mega-resort and arena access, and Mandalay Bay for beach/wave-pool and convention stays. The free Mandalay Bay–Luxor–Excalibur tram and monorail access make this corridor easy to treat as one campus.

Is the South Strip a good location for a Las Vegas trip?

Yes for travelers who want major resort amenities at lower rates. The South Strip's casino cluster — Luxor, MGM Grand, Excalibur, Mandalay Bay, and New York-New York — is walkable within the corridor, and the central Strip (Bellagio, Caesars) is a 15-minute walk north or a short rideshare. The Welcome to Las Vegas sign is also walkable for the requisite photo.

What is it like to stay in the Luxor pyramid?

Luxor's pyramid rooms use diagonal inclinators (elevators that run at a 39-degree angle up the interior walls) to reach the upper floors. Rooms face inward toward the pyramid atrium or outward toward the Strip and surrounding valley. The inclinator system is a distinctive Las Vegas experience that most guests find worth the novelty, and room quality is consistent with a well-maintained three-star resort.
