** No Resort Fees! ** Relax in comfort in the Rio's spacious suites, or take the complimentary shuttle service to the nearby Las Vegas Strip - the best of two worlds is yours! The shuttle runs every half hour from 10 am to 1 am to connect you with everything the Strip has to offer.

The Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino features spacious 600-square foot studio suite accommodations. Resort amenities include 14 award-winning restaurants, five pools including a lagoon and sand beach, full-service salon and spa including a complete fitness center, and two wedding chapels.

Rio pool and pool area is now open for the season! From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.

Check out the Masquerade Village, complete with Mardi Gras excitement and two floors of boutique shopping. It's an extravaganza that can only be found at The Rio. Also in the Village - Cafe Martorano Las Vegas! The original Cafe Martorano in Florida is widely known for both its celebrity clientele and its South Philadelphia-style Italian-American cuisine. And now the homemade meatballs, the cheesesteak and everything else can be found in Rio's Masquerade Village, in a venue twice the size of the Florida location. The 150 seat, 7,000-square-foot restaurant features white walls, black granite, stainless steel and evocative lighting with wide screen plasma televisions surrounding the room playing scenes from gem mob movies.

Rio is the place for amazing entertainment, including Penn & Teller and the Chippendales!

Known for their outrageous blending of comedy and magic, often skewering the genre of traditional magic, Penn & Teller's live show has been a hit on Broadway and around the country and now has a permanent home in Las Vegas right here at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino! Edgy, provocative and hilarious, Penn & Teller's live show on any given night can involve knives, guns, a fire-eating showgirl and a duck. Known as the "Bad Boys of Magic" for supposedly revealing the secrets to their tricks, they may show you how it's done, but they still manage to leave you startled. Their weekly hit Showtime series, Penn & Teller: BS! as well as their Emmy-winning network specials and their legendary appearances on Letterman and Leno had Entertainment Weekly name them two of the funniest comedians alive.

Enjoy The Ultimate Girl's Night Out at the Rio's all-new Chippendales, The Show. Excite all your senses as these handsome male performers seduce and entertain at the new Chippendales Theater with a Sky Lounge, a Gossip Pit, and the alluring new night spot, Flirt! Chippendales The Show features 12 physically perfect male dancers who delight the audience with a series of disarmingly sexy yet tasteful routines. Designed exclusively for women, the show artistically encapsulates a wide range of female fantasies to provide a sensuous and fast-paced performance that offers the perfect blend of music, hot dance moves, and sensual theatrics.

Very Happy Traveler Nov 23, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

I was looking for a last minute hotel in Vegas and found a good deal at the Rio, pretty much just looking for somewhere to ... sleep before my flight out of town. When I arrived at the hotel for check-in, the front desk staff I spoke to confirmed the details of my reservation then said, "I think we can take of you." I thought he was just talking about checking me in on my reservation, not exactly. He made a quick phone call and when he hung up, he told me they were going to upgrade me. I'm thinking this is pretty cool, and then he starts describing my upgrade and I realize this is beyond cool, this is awesome! They upgraded me to a suite in the Ipanema tower, on the 20th floor, that you need a key card in the elevator to access. The suite had a jacuzzi tub, a shower big enough for 2 people, a TV in the mirror in the bathroom, an extremely comfortable king sized bed, tons of marble, it was very decadent feeling. Even the drapes were opened by light switched on the wall. Opening, I might add, to a great view of Las Vegas. I was only there for one night, but I really enjoyed staying in luxury that usually costs about 10 times my budget. Thanks Rio for a wonderful memory!!!

My stay was for personal/family business, so I was alone. I am not a gambler, but chose this hotel because I was familiar ... with it from past visits to LV. I knew the rooms were spacious, had ethernet connection and, as an off-strip hotel, it was easy to get to and from it by car. The hotel rate was riduculously low and there is no resort fee. As a single woman, I was comfortable that my needs for security and safety could be met there. My room was up to date and lovely. I ate twice at the Gaylord (Indian) restaurant and enjoyed both meals. The Sao Paulo cafe is fine. Staff was friendly and professional.

Would recommend to a friend!

I was in Vegas for a Convention and I travel to Vegas at least once a year. I have always enjoyed staying at the Rio All ... Suite Hotel and Casino. This trip was no different. If I had to critique one item though it would have to be the small numbers of Waitresses and Waiters on the Casino floor. I sat down many times to a machines and never saw a waitress to be able to order a drink. Other than that I had a great time.

We LOVE the RIO!

Over 50 crowd Nov 16, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

We went for our son's 21st birthday. The front desk staff bent over backwards to give us early check in, they were ... efficient and friendly and very accommodating. The staff at the Sao Paulo cafe was awesome and friendly. The room staff were pleasant and always greeted us. Overall, we really like the RIO, however, they cater so much to their diamond star clients that they get priority over everyone, even the shuttle service. If you've waited for 30 minutes and they just walk up, they get on before you which I don't think is fair at all. The drinks are a little pricy, but the food was reasonable and very good, the Seafood Buffet is AWESOME.

Rio has the best rooms in Las Vegas that aren't $500-a-night luxury. [...]. So it's off the Strip a little....big deal. ...

UNRESPONSIVE TO CUSTOMER'S NEEDS

Parrothead Nov 13, 2009

Stayed here because of great pool area. Checked in at 2:30PM with plans to lounge by the pool and unwind until 6:30 and an ... evening of action. Was evicted from pool area @ 3:30 after 15 minutes of relaxation and told that the entire pool area had been reserved for a private function. Was not informed of this at time of reservation or check-in. Tried to complain to management and was given the run-around. When we finally made contact with a manager, he was unresponsive and unfriendly. Offered no compensation or an offer to cancel reservation. Subsequent emails and calls went unanswered. VERY UNSATISFIED! Also, location is not very good and so called suites are small and ordinary. Will never set foot in that property again!

My husband and I and another couple were in Las Vegas for a trade show. We've stayed at several of the strip hotels. The ... Rio was a lot of fun -- pretty young crowd, and the staff was fabulous! (Special regards to Cindy and her sister at the Ultra Lounge!) The VooDoo Lounge on the 51st floor was pretty cool with its panaromic view of Las Vegas. My only complaint was the charge to use the internet.

Functional but not fun, Suitest Rooms

Raoul Duke Nov 4, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Went for Halloween! On the upside, no onewas upset about the condition I was in most of the time. Plus I got a huge room. ... Houskeeping was zealous, in fact they came in and cleaned despite the don't disturb sign outside the door- that freaked me out! That was nerve racking, but nothing has turnedup missing. The bartenders are too busy staring at their registers or chatting with other staff to take a drink order, so waiting at an empty bar can take a long time. The restraunts are only open at specific times, specifically not most of the time it seemed, except for the AABG which was open all night. This is a problem because the hotel is still too far away from its neighbor much less the strip to accomodate a proper, short, stumble. Casino waitresses are delightfully undressed, but this does not make up for a lack of consistant dining options, a lack of a hot tub, or the pool being closed except on saturday and sunday. This is a great hotel if you plan to spend little time in it. And the All American Bar and Grill is exceptable at 3:30 in the morning. Gift shop had reasonably priced booze, as well as food in many simpler forms.

Nightlife tip

Rio is not the all night playground I needed it to be. I paid full price for every single drink during the 5 night stay, and was asked if I was "alright" 3 out of 4 times that I ordered. AND I wasn't really drinking that much, so questions like that from unfriendly staff members made me feel very unwelcome. The only smile came from a kind young lady in the Masquerade Bar, who I gathered was an independant contractor and NOT Rio staff. If you are planning on clubbing/ partying every night, and don't have your own reliable connection, consider one of the companies that arranges VIP access to venues like LAX or Tao, its worth the added expense to actually enjoy yourself. I did not try the shuttle to the strip, nor the VooDoo lounge (fear of glass elevators,) but my cohorts thought highly of the club on the 51st Floor. Save your big tips for Housekeeping and Bellhop/Valet services. Also, the front desk staff is not forthcoming with info (if you're a beginner, you will miss out) so ask alot of questions.

It isnt too far away from the strip but if you dont have a car or if you dont feel like driving your car because you may be ... partying, its not worth the wait for the shuttle. Next time I would rather be in the middle of the strip rather than off the strip. We drove and it was so complicated to get to the hotel, and once you are in the hotel if you are in the masquerade towers, it is that much more confusing just to get to the elevators...it was just too much unnecessary walking. I would rate it a 2 overall.

Not for non-smokers!!!

Jbfly Nov 2, 2009

The hotel itself is fairly nice. My son was looking forward to the pool, but it was closed for 2 of our four days. (Yes ... they have more than 1 pool, but all were closed...). I do not smoke (most Californians don't) and even though we got a non-smoking room, the hallways were CONSTANTLY filled with the smell of cigarette smoke. I never asked, but it seemed like there were smoking rooms adjoining the non-smoking rooms. Since there is a pass-thru door between the suites, you could see how the smoke from one room could creep into the non-smoking rooms. One of the reasons that I booked this hotel was that someone said that "less than 5% of the rooms at the Rio are smoking rooms". If this is true than I don't see why a few floors aren't just designated "smoking floors" and the rest can be non-smoking. Doesn't anyone read or care about the dangers of 2nd hand smoke? Also, there was only one blanket on the bed and no comforter, just a stupid little 1ft wide duvet or whatever they call that thing at the end of the mattress. We had to crank the temp up to 75 just to get some decent rest. There are fun things to see and do at the Rio, but I would stay elsewhere....

Plenty of Perks

Princessflick143 Nov 2, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The room was nice and big. The windows were floor to ceiling and the light in the room was good, and so were the black out ... curtains for those who like to stay out late and sleep in later. The room was clean. There were not enough towels in the room for the amount of people we had checked in. We indicated that there would be 3 of us in one room, but there were only 2 towels. We called down and some were brought up. Staff was friendly and the valet brought out bags in and came to pick them up for us. So worth it, so we didn't have to drag the bags around the casino floor. We gambled and the wait staff was good about coming around and brining refreshments, and the coupons for free entrance into the club, 2 free drinks in the club, and 25% off the Carnival Buffet Champagne Brunch were perfect as those are all things I love to do when staying at the Rio. If you have a coupon to eat at the Buffet then I recommend that instead of the other restaurants inside as they are very pricy and you end up paying just as much for Breakfast or lunch as you would have for the buffet and get way less food and options. Had B-fast at café and paid $3 for one cup of coffee, not even a latte. Pool was nice. Great for kids and adults alike. The Spas were tucked away from the pools which is nice so you can relax with out a bunch of screaming kids. It does get smoky on casino floor, but is less so under where the "Show in the Sky" is. The only thing I would recommend is bringing your own conditioner. They only supply shampoo, so my hair was a little dry the next day. All in all a good trip to Vegas. Room was big, didn't have to take a cab to a good club, drinks were strong, people friendly.

Unbeatable location for the price

I was just visiting Las Vegas for the first time. Also i am not a frequent traveler so i was expecting some complication. ... However there wasn't any. The location was great with a free shuttle to the strip witch is basicly down the street.

Good price but inconvenient

Mike Oct 31, 2009

We used self-parking and had difficulty finding the registration desk; elevators to rooms were hard to find; all the ... resturants were prohibitively expensive for us, and leaving hotel for meals required either a shuttle or a long walk across the interstate highway and beyond. I was disappointed that I had to pay a $10.00 fee to use the internet. The room itself was large and gave us a great view of the city, especially at night. Great food at great prices, one of Vegas's one-time claim to fame, is definitely a thing of the past.

OK if you don't spend time in the room.

Mr Blonde Oct 26, 2009

Arrived in rental car at valet and proceeded through front desk check in no problems. Got to the room and went to grab a ... beer. Mini bar fridge broken, everything warm. I was on business and needed to check my workplace intranet, first off the internet in room is wired not wireless, second you must pay 10 dollars for 24 hours (expected), but after I paid it wouldn't work (limited conectivity error). Laid on the bed and grabbedd the remote. Unfortunately they have the TV positioned so you have to be sitting on the suite's couch to actually see it. If you are not interested in spending anytime in your room this place is ok. The casion was adaquate, bars and restaurants ok and the roooms large.

Rio

cathy Oct 26, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The Rio is a beautiful hotel. The pool area is clean and beautiful too. We wished there was a Rio shuttle from and to the ... air port. Also the shuttle to the strip should leave earlier in mornings around 9am is better than the 10am. We did eat there but no one liked using the machines to pay to enter the dining area it took to long that way trouble with the machines. The rooms at the Rio are spacious and beautiful and the view from the room is out of this world especially at night. We have been to Vegas before but never at the Rio to stay. We would stay there again even if the changes listed above were not changed but it would make the Rio perfect.

Recreation/Attractions tip, In Hotel

If you plan on gambling, I wouldn't necessarily do it here. the slots are pretty tight. A friend warned me about this, but I played here anyway and learned exactly what they were talking about.

Nightlife tip, In Hotel

The VooDoo lounge is small and not set up very well for a really great crowd event. If you have a large party, this is not the right place for you.

Nightlife tip

Rio is not the all night playground I needed it to be. I paid full price for every single drink during the 5 night stay, and was asked if I was "alright" 3 out of 4 times that I ordered. AND I wasn't really drinking that much, so questions like that from unfriendly staff members made me feel very unwelcome. The only smile came from a kind young lady in the Masquerade Bar, who I gathered was an independant contractor and NOT Rio staff. If you are planning on clubbing/ partying every night, and don't have your own reliable connection, consider one of the companies that arranges VIP access to venues like LAX or Tao, its worth the added expense to actually enjoy yourself. I did not try the shuttle to the strip, nor the VooDoo lounge (fear of glass elevators,) but my cohorts thought highly of the club on the 51st Floor. Save your big tips for Housekeeping and Bellhop/Valet services. Also, the front desk staff is not forthcoming with info (if you're a beginner, you will miss out) so ask alot of questions.

The Hotel could have been more helpful with getting show tickets. I asked about Bette Midler tickets and they could only get tickets in the low $300's. We decided to go Ceasar's ticket office and got tickets for $55 and we sat in the second row, center, first mezzanine.

Money savers tip, Short Drive

If you think you will have a need for snacks like soda, water, cookies, liquor, etc. try to avoid the hotel shoppes. They are outrageously expensive, a bag of chips was priced at almost $5.00 and a pint of milk was $2.79. Put togeather a list and head to the local Walmart. The air is very dry in Vegas, and I found myself constantly needing to drink water, etc., a small bottle of water at the hotel was priced at almost $3.00, at Walmart the same water was priced at 69 cents.
