Excalibur Hotel Las Vegas

With its Tournament of Kings, Fantasy Faire midway and whimsical performers, the Excalibur panders to the child in all of us.

Located at the southwest point of Las Vegas' now-famous "four corners" (at the intersection of Tropicana and Las Vegas Boulevard), the Excalibur lives up to the grandeur of its surroundings. Like neighboring properties New York-New York, the Tropicana and The MGM Grand, the 4,008-room Excalibur has a breathtaking facade and an overwhelming air, with a flawlessly executed medieval theme.

The Arthurian touches extend into every aspect of this spectacular hotel and casino. The Medieval Village is rich with strolling performers, jugglers and storytellers. Tudor-style prime rib restaurant Sir Galahad's Prime Rib House serves a delicious Yorkshire Pudding along with the house specialty. Visitors can revel in the period-authentic jousting and sport of the Tournament of Kings nightly, enjoying the midway games of the Fantasy Faire after the last rider has been thrown. Two wedding chapels allow couples to take the plunge in medieval costume. And for those with the inclination, the 100,000-square-foot casino has all the amenities of modern gaming and more.

As strange as a castle may look between the New York skyline and an Egyptian pyramid, the Excalibur seems comfortable with its surroundings. Like Camelot, its pride and conceit is fully justified in the splendor of its visage: tall, strong, permanent, the way an empire should look.
