as for Luxor, we stayed in a pyramid spa suite and enjoyed the general pyramid thing, but would go for a tower if we stayed there again...it was novel but for us it was a been there, done that thing now...I remember the room being quite dark due to the tint on the windows which isn't a big deal but I remember it.

Like you I also want to stay in the Pyramid for the experience of it, but from reviews the tower is better. I might try for the Pyramid Suite and see how it goes. Did they decline your $20 when they weren't able to help?

I also read somewhere that you get some coupons when checking in - did you get them?

Hope you have better luck with the gambling.

She didn't get a chance to keep my $20, when I ask for comp upgrade I always make sure they can see my cash so know exactly what I mean, but I then leave it on the counter. I picked it up as soon as she said she couldn't help, although I am fairly sure she wouldn't have kept it anyway she was very friendly, we were chatting about all sorts.
Yes there was a voucher book but we didn't use any.

Oh dear! Don't think I've ever seen that happen. I have seen a line of people waiting to use it though, so probably not unusual.

You could always try Tony's method of gambling. You wouldn't lose too much then. ;-)
