Vegas icon Rio Hotel & Casino joins Destination by Hyatt brand
The newly reimagined Rio Hotel & Casino has officially joined the Destination by Hyatt brand.
It follows the completion of the resort’s first phase of a $340 million property-wide transformation.
It is the largest property in Hyatt’s global hotel portfolio, based on room count, and the first Destination by Hyatt hotel in Nevada.
“Rio is an icon reborn, and its legacy and unique character live on. We are excited for our members and guests to discover the experiences that make Rio Las Vegas a standout destination,” said Mike Waddell, SVP, Global Franchise Operations, Hyatt.
Phase one of Rio’s $340 million renovation included the full redesign and modernization of the all-suite resort’s 1,500-room Ipanema Tower.
The hotel also recently unveiled six new culinary destinations within the new Canteen Food Hall
There is 220,000 square feet of newly renovated meetings and convention space, a revamped pool district with four pools catering to both adults and families, and more than 500 new slot machines and 30 table games on the resort’s casino floor.
Other highlights from the resort’s phase one renovation include the openings of: Lapa Lounge, a sophisticated cocktail destination inspired by Rio de Janeiro’s iconic Lapa neighborhood, and Luckley Tavern & Grill, a “come as you are” casual dining destination.
Phase two of the resort’s renovation will focus on completely redesigning and modernizing the Masquerade Tower guestrooms and public spaces.
“Rio’s Destination by Hyatt brand affiliation marks an exciting new chapter for our resort through our progressive evolution,” said Patrick Miller, President and CEO of Rio Hotel & Casino.
