Attractions at the Mirage Hotel and Casino
There are plenty of things to take up your free time while you are in Vegas and many of them are right at the Mirage Hotel and Casino. The newly renovated, tropical-themed Mirage Hotel and Casino boasts an indoor rainforest, a dolphin habitat, and one of the most famous spectacles in Las Vegas—the Mirage's erupting volcano.
The entrance of the hotel is home to a lagoon with towering waterfalls and a 54-foot high volcano that spews smoke and fire 100 feet above the water once an hour nightly. Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat feature dolphins swimming in the two and one-half million-gallon pools. Also created for the Mirage by Siegfried and Roy is the White Tiger Habitat, a tropical environment featuring the exotic cats. The 20,000-gallon saltwater aquarium in the lobby features 1,000 coral reef creatures. The 100-foot atrium houses a tropical rainforest. To appeal to the risk taker side, the casino offers slot machines, poker tables, table games, a high-limit lounge, and a race and sports book.
The live entertainment options include the new show LOVE by Cirque du Soleil. Mirage is also home to singer-comedian Danny Gans, and various touring headline entertainers. The onsite spa and salon features massage therapies, beauty treatments, hydrotherapies, and a beauty salon. The Revolution Lounge is a 7,000 square-foot lounge featuring psychedelic floors, walls, and tables with pulsating lights, as well as musical theme nights. The Beatles-themed Abbey Road Bar is a great place to relax and enjoy new friends. Finally there is JET, the three-floor, four-bar nightclub.
