Above average size rooms but with basic ammenties and an off the strip location makes for an ok experience. The pools are not heated and half of them were closed. The resturants were ok but nothing special. If the price is right it is an ok deal. more

I've been to Vegas several times and we always rent a car, so we usually stay off Strip for better deals, and decided to try out the Rio. When we checked in I asked about a strip view, they said $30/night, but they had a jacuzzi suite for $75/night and that had a strip view, so we chose that. I'm... more

This was our first time staying at the Rio, we visit Vegas two or three times a year and belong to the Harrah's players club so we chose to stay at the Rio with our comps this time around. I was very pleasantly surprised with the room. We were in the Ipanema tower on the 19th floor and the room... more

I didn't realize how off the strip we were. It was approximately 30 mins to walk. They provide a shuttle to Harrah's hotel every 30 minutes but that is still not always convenient. We ended up taking a cab most of the time. This gets costly about $10.00 each way. Just fyi if looking for an inexpensive stay the transportation... more

We stayed at The Rio for a weekend in September. We truly enjoy this hotel as all the rooms are suites. You also have a refrigerator in your room which makes it nice as you can bring in items from the convenience store. If you stay on the upper levels you have a great view of the strip at night.... more

Having been to Vegas many times in the past and having stayed at all different price levels of hotels I was honestly surprised just how bad the Rio was. First of all it needs a major room renovation in order for it to compete with other hotels. YES, these are suite rooms but when the bathroom has mold on the... more

I would like to start by saying that I was a little nervous about staying at the Rio after all the bad reviews, but my stay was very nice we had a room in the Ipanema Tower with a great view of the pools and the srtip (nice view to come back to at night) our room was very clean... more

The friendly staff at the Rio makes it stand out. The over sized rooms (suites) make the hotel a better value. It's location off the strip is compensated for by the convenient shuttles and the close walking proximity to Caesars- Bellagio - Paris. The pool area is great and its a good value. more

The Rio is a great hotel that is off strip. My husband and I traveled for a bowling tournament in Las Vegas. We decided to stay at the Rio as a group. This was one of the best decisions we made. Since the Rio is off strip it makes travel so much easier than if you were to be on... more
