Most of the elevators were down when we stayed there forcing us to wait up to 45 minutes to get to our room. We were late to an event due to the elevators. They didn’t have stairs that you could use without having to head down very eerie hallways and ending up on the outside of the building.

Need 2 people or pay staff to help with luggage because it is a long walk to room from the entrances. The room was nice and was clean. Great pool areas, but pool closes at 6pm -big negative. It was still 95 degrees at 6 pm and we couldn’t enjoy the pool.

Highly recommend calling, prior to booking, to make sure no events are happening at there convention center and no elevator issues. Had to wait 45 minutes to an 1.5 hours to get back into room due to one side of the elevators were working. No one was working the front desk. We had nothing to do with the event at the convention center.

II can't believe the terrible experience I had at the Rio during the volleyball tournament. I would have much preferred to stay at a different hotel with functioning elevators. As a disabled person who relies on a cane to move around, I was left waiting at the elevator for 20-30 minutes just to go up and down from my room because of the hotel's elevator problems. When I asked for assistance to bring supplies to my room after checking in, I was told that incoming guests had priority and that I would have to wait over an hour. The lack of staff support in this situation is unacceptable. How is it possible that a guest with a room already booked and disabled is left waiting for someone who is just checking in? This whole experience was completely unsatisfactory, and I have no intention of returning anytime soon.

The elevators didn’t work, you had to wait over 20 minutes to go up or down. The AC wasn’t working and when I called them they just said “yeah it’s Las Vegas. It’s hot. We’re working on it” and they didn’t have portable fans to offer guest. Our shower drains smelled like sewer. When we got into our room, there were straws on the floor, so not cleaned from the previous guest.

Most of the features of the old, grand version of the hotel are mothballed. The property seems to be bleeding money from the new owner. The room was fine, updated, but everything was empty... no minibar, no water, no coffee, nada. $21 for 2 bottles of water in the gift shop, and $50 per day of 'resort fee'.
I would make another choice; this is an old, grey mare of a hotel now.

A lot of reviews stated the rooms were old and not well cleaned. We had a fully remodeled room in the Ipanema tower - the room was really nice, large, comfortable, and clean. Other reviews also stated check-in was difficult and staff were rude - neither of these were our experience. Check-in was quick and easy, and the staff member assisting us was very helpful and friendly. We also had an excellent dinner at the Luckley Tavern. The only reason I don't give this 5 stars is the Ipanema tower had almost half the elevators out of service. The number of elevators available was probably sufficient for typical traffic, but there was a large volleyball meet at the convention center, and there were certain times when all the teams were trying to use elevators at the same time. This caused huge backups with long lines to get onto an elevator. It was so bad that if you were on a middle floor and needed to go down, each elevator going down was full when it got to the middle level floor and you couldn't get on. Many of us just pressed the up button, were able to enter a mostly empty elevator up to the high floors, and stay in back to the bottom. Again, this only happened a few times during our stay, but when it did there were long delays. But overall the hotel was very nice and I would stay there again.

I stayed at the Rio Hotel & Casino from Thursday through Sunday, and unfortunately it was one of the most frustrating hotel experiences I’ve had in Las Vegas. The biggest issue was the elevator situation. Only four elevators seemed to be working the entire weekend for such a huge hotel tower. The lines to get on an elevator were absolutely insane — honestly longer than some Disneyland rides. Guests were packed shoulder to shoulder, waiting forever just to go up or down. People were getting so angry and frustrated that there were almost fist fights breaking out near the elevator areas.

To make matters worse, the air conditioning was not working properly, which made the stay extremely uncomfortable, especially in Las Vegas heat. The plumbing was also terrible, with slow drains and overall poor room maintenance that made the hotel feel outdated and neglected.

A major Las Vegas resort should be able to manage weekend crowds and special events and maintain basic hotel functions, but this stay felt chaotic from start to finish. Between the broken elevators, bad AC, and plumbing issues, the experience seriously took away from the trip. I really hope Rio management addresses these problems because guests deserve much better.

We had ablast. Great restaurants, great mixed drinks. We saw Penn and Teller and it was a great show. The pools were wonderful and if you can rent a cabana it makes the day float by. I would recommend highly and come back. They accommodated our request for adjoining rooms.

However a few suggestions to the owners- provide wash cloths and a non slip mat in the shower and a waste basket in that room. Still, the two rooms and two sinks were perfect for 3 of us in one room.

The elevators were slow during rush times, but it seems they are working to correct.

If there is anything you can do to help Starbucks. We waited between 20-30mins every morning for our order.

I would not recommend Rio. Definitely not a 4 star rating at least. The hotel and casino itself is nice with the restaurants and bars but everything else was awful

First off, I had a remodeled which still had an old room smell to it. The room also did not have any available coffee or water. The mattress was lumpy and the a/c would not cool down to a cold enough temperature to sleep in and was actually very humid because they probably use an older “swamp cooler” type system. I did not sleep well and was hot all nite.

When I called to front desk or room service I was put through an AI asst and had to stay on hold for 30 min until a live person answered.

Terrible experience. Would never stay again.

My safe deposit box was not working, I talked to virtual agent Rita over the phone but did not receive any help. I had to go in line stand Two times. It took more than Four hours to solve the issue. Because of this I became late goig to my show.
Everything is great this is the big problem and should fix it.

Several other restaurants as well. I saw the Wow show which was wonderful! I recommend. I wish I did the mystery dinner. Looks like a lot of fun. There’s a Smash burger in the facility as well.

The grounds themselves are nice and the restaurants were great. After that it all goes downhill. Staff are condescending and actively unhelpful. If you ask for hot water they'll tell you to go to the bar and the bar will tell you no. Starbucks will sell you hot water, even though it's normally free. There's no one to ask for help because the staff dismisses you as fast as possible or just walks away.
