Luxor Las Vegas Inclinator Elevator
August 1, 2008 by Jeff
Before I do a review of the Luxor's hotel I thought I'd make a quick post regarding the elevators at the Luxor.
The Luxor as we know is a huge pyramid with hotel rooms throughout the pyramid. Instead of having an elevator shaft going right up the middle of the pyramid (which wouldn't look very good) the architects created inclinators. These inclinators are simply an elevator that goes up on an angle.
Being an Engineer I was curious to see how these inclinators worked and felt while riding. Sorry to disappoint everyone but these inclinators are actually kinda boring. Yes, boring. If you're really curious to take a ride all you need is a Luxor hotel room key. You don't need it to be working or anything you simply flash the card to the security person as you walk to the inclinator doors. Simple as that.
