The Mirage has always been one of the classiest places on the Strip.  Props to Steve Wynn for ushering in the resort era with this beautiful property.  (Jeers to him for destroying the Dunes sign in a meglamaniacal gesture during the opening of Treasure Island...but I digress)  \n\nThe Mirage has stood up well to time, wear, tear, countless invading tourists, varying economies, changing corporations, MGM-Mirage excecutive meddling, Ray Horn getting mauled on stage, as well as American Idol visiting.\n\nOverall the Mirage is still a gem on the strip!  The volcano show is still amazing.  The casino is beautiful.  The atrium is amazing.  The pools are very gorgeous.  The pricing is generally reasonable as well.  \n\nIf they'd open up their own micro-brewery in the hotel, I'd give this place a fifth star.  Until the day I enjoy a micro-brewed \"Danny Gans-weizen\", it'll give them some perfection to work towards.
