The room was decent, on par with a mediocre Holiday Inn. I would NOT recommend eating at any establishment in the hotel though. The buffet for lunch was a disgusting collection of breakfast leftovers and dried up greasy spoon creations. It honestly reminded me of the buffet from National Lampoons Vegas Vacation! AVOID AT ALL COSTS the casino. I decided... more

Here are some key facts about the Riviera: 1. This hotel was probably the dopest thing on the strip circa 1986. 2. The casino and lobby are hideously out of date. 3. Some of the people are of the unsavory sort. 4. Stay in the Monaco Tower the rooms were just remodeled and are really nice. 5. Ask for an... more

Just back from 5 day stay. Hotel very nice except for check in. Took 3 different changes to get smoking room ( no renovated rooms for smoking - 250 "fine" for smoking in non room). Room we got (Monte Carlo tower) was largest room of the three, reg bed and tv, great Strip view over pool. Ate at hotel once... more

I had a 5th floor non-smoking room in the Monaco tower which had obviously been recently renovated. It was a bit small for the two beds that were there, but it... more

I was a bit worried after reading some of the reviews of this hotel but I was very happy after arriving. Check in was easy we had help from Toni, she was very helpful and pleasant. She upgraded us to a mini suite in the Monoco tower. All we had to do was ask. The room was great. VERY CLEAN.... more

I had other hotel offers (through my job) but made the mistake of choosing the Riviera. With the 3rd night free I was also supposed to get 2 tickets to a show.... more

Just got back from 3 night stay @ Riviera...checking into the hotel can be a task (especially during peak hours)...that aside, the hotel and casino is a great value considering how much other hotels are charging on the strip. I requested a non-smoking room, so they gave me a room in newly renovated tower...good sized room with all the current... more

I stayed here with my boyfriend while meeting up with my parents who were at a conference. The hotel was being renovated at the time, so perhaps the rooms have had some upgrading style-wise since we stayed there. The rooms themselves are huge, at least ours was, and have blackout curtains. We didn't realize what those were for until nighttime... more
