Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino

Loretta Bennett

Arrived on Monday for the SEMA show and will be checking out Saturday morning. We are in the Masquerade Tower, this tower is not refurbished yet, rooms are dated, but clean, roomy and comfortable. I called for an extra set of towels and within 3 minutes they were brought up. There's a ton to do including many casino games although we don't gamble. There are shops, a KISS Museum, art gallery and many shows. We went to the WOW and Empire Strips Back shows. There were affordable and well worth the money spent. Fantastic performances by all and the staff was wonderful. There are many restaurant choices in numerous price ranges and the food has been great. All in all we're very pleased with our stay so far and would come back again.

The suites were large with a corner view, mine of the strip on one side and mountains on the other. Odd smell when I arrived, the hotel clearly tried to clean the air from the indulgences of a previous guest. I turned down the thermostat temperature and that helped. Spacious rooms, nice layout, retro interiors. Easy access from the airport or I-15. Lots of parking. Wear good walking shoes if you're not valet parking. The kiosk check-in is better than waiting in line, and it gives you a room key and texts the room number and directions to your phone.

I reserved a suite for 4 nights. The panaramic views were made up for a lot of short comings. Our room stunk like weed really bad. I complained. I asked for new bedding qnd pillows and they all stunk too. We had to chase down a soap dish. We asked for extra sets of towels and got the weirdest mish mash of towels but never a full set let alone 2 full sets. We like to leave a dairly tip for the housekeeping but they didn't leave a pen and weirdly no one in our group had one so they left more than once without their tip because there was no way of letting them know the cash left out was for them. At least that tells you how honest the housekeeping staff is. Also, you would think a suite I've 1000sq ft would have nice "gimmies" like robes and maybe even some slippers. They didn't and that was a disappointment. They are renovating so I'm not going to complain about how run down some areas were because they are working on that aspect. We would have liked to have more places to sit and visit and maybe have lunch. The fitness room could use some resistance loops and more 5lb weights. Not much in the way of shopping. All that said, the staff was nice and knowledgeable although I wish they had a concierge.

Don't sleep on the Rio Hotel & Casino. New ownership and management has big plans for the property to pump new life and business to this side of town. Renovations have already started which can be seen. Rooms have been reimagined with new furniture and fixtures. With a food hall in place of the buffet, there are many options to choose from. Free parking and a newly upgraded pool area, there's no other reason to stay anywhere else. New carpeting in the casino, new felt on the casino tables and new machines both in the high limit and regular casino you are bound to find something you'll enjoy. The revival of the main bar has brought more fun and excitement to the property. Price, value and location... Nobody even comes close. Consider the Rio for your next visit to Vegas. Thank me later.

★★★★★ The Rio Is Back and Better Than Ever I’ve been coming to the Rio for over 20 years, and this visit completely blew me away. The remodeled suites are gorgeous, the casino is brighter and more alive than it’s been in years, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. The food prices are actually reasonable (a rare thing in Vegas), and the whole place just feels happy again. The new lighting on the outside makes the building shine like it used to, and you can tell management really cares. I even got to meet President Patrick Miller and Michelle Engstrom, two people clearly passionate about bringing the Rio back to life. It feels like coming home to an old friend who just had the best makeover ever. If you haven’t been to the Rio lately, go. You’ll fall in love with it all over again. Frederick M.
