The vibrant all-suite Rio offers spacious, comfortable rooms with sitting areas supplementing its bed-and-bath arrangement. Off the Strip, its rooms feature expansive views of the Strip and the mountains beyond through floor-to-ceiling windows. Rio’s Brazilian theme accounts for the carnival that parades above the casino floor seven times a day and the sand entries into Rio’s four pools. Among the attractions that draw guests as well as visitors are modern magicians Penn & Teller, who star in the showroom, and Rosemary’s restaurant, acclaimed by local gourmets.
