Unsafe Dangerous Beware
Unsafe Dangerous BewareI had an absolutely abhorring experience here, this "hotel" is scary dangerous and unsafe! I was continually harassed catcalled with degrading remarks BY HOTEL EMPLOYEES! I filed a report with "security" who was untrustworthy and physically pushed me around. Please be safe and don't stay here! Some of my belongings are still missing and they will not help me to recover them. I have not been refunded for the unused portion of my stay and surprise surprise they're being completely uncooperative. STAY AWAY!!

First time experience
First time experienceOur first trip to Las Vegas and was booked in at the riviera. The check in was long and we had a hard time finding the registration desk upon arrival. The room was nice, clean. We had a nice time in the casino and didn't take long to find our way around. Now that we know some things we would probably not stay at the riviera again mainly because we would like to see if we would have a better experience at another hotel/casino in the future.

a good value for a strip "resort" hotel
a good value for a strip "resort" hotelThis is a good "value" resort. it's old but big and well kept.it has plenty of shows, plenty of decent restaurants from a fast food court to higher-end places.the casino is uncrowded. it is currently isolated on the northern fringe of the strip so you wanderers need a car or enjoy walking or using the bus.at least the property is not set back from l.v.blvd. so you are only a few steps from the sidewalk.a plus for Catholics is a short walk to the cathedral.

Not bad, but not great either
Not bad, but not great eitherThis hotel was built in 1955 and it doesn't look like they have done any updates since then, the rooms are not that great and are in need of a big face lift, the staff was kinda rude also, which didn't go over well with my wife at all. The casino was nothing to talk about and the food was just average. If your looking for a romantic get-a-way, this isn't the place for it, noisy also, needless to say we won't be going back to the Riv anytime soon.

Rivera Stay
We stayed at the Rivera for 5 nights in May and overall, I'd say our stay at this hotel was just a little better than OK. The room was clean but dimly lit. The shower stall had a little mildew in the corners. The bed was comfortable. The window valance had water marks. Food in the buffet was good. $35 will get you food all day. Plenty of cabs to get you where you like. Costs about $22 to take a cab to Freemont Street. Local bus, the Duece costs $7 for 24 hours but is very slow and some times very crowded. The airport is very close to this hotel The concierge offers a 6 hour bus tour of Hoover Dam, Ethel M's candy factory and a cactus garden. Actually an excellent tour.

The Riviera Hotel & Casino
After reading several reviews of The Riviera Hotel & Casino, my husband and I were a bit nervous. We have been to Vegas 5 or 6 times and stayed at several different hotels. We arrived at 10am and when we tried to check in we were told that check-in was at 4 but they would be able to accommodate us with a room at noon. This worked out well because we were both starving so we grabbed a bite to eat and a cocktail and before we knew it, our room was ready. We were given a non-smoking room that was recently remodeled. It was quiet and comfortable and worked out well for the little time that we spent in it.
The casino at The Riviera is pretty small compared to the other hotels that we have been to. (We are slot players and were surprised at how little they had) It turned out good because we both were on a winning streak and for the first time, we brought home more money than what we went with.
I do recommend this hotel for a budget traveler that isn't too concerned with all the glam and glitz of Vegas.

Riviera Hotel boys Trip
Stayed at the Riviera in Feb as part of a guys trip with a bunch of my old college buddies.
The rooms were clean, but pretty beat. We basically just slept for a few hours each night, so weren't expecting much. The pool was not crowded and just average, but the towel service was free. The casino had $5 minimums on most games. The waitresses were on their game, quick drinks. The dealers were very professional.
I am grading this hotel for what it was...a low budget hotel, for that it gets 3.5 stars...not a dump, but clearly not the Wynn.
