Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas

A stay at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas takes you back in time to the early days of Vegas casino history. Flashback: The year is 1955. A group of ambitious Miami investors, inspired by the success of the eight other casino hotels on the strip, decided to build a ninth hotel. However, the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas would not be a mere copy cat of the other motor court type hotels. This nine story high rise would signify the beginning of an age of glitz and glamour in Las Vegas. The opening of Riviera Hotel Las Vegas, Nevada featured none other than the famous pianist Liberace, who would become the highest paid performer in Vegas history. Joan Crawford, of Mommy Dearest fame was the hostess of the opening ceremonies.

Throughout the years that followed, ownership of the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas would constantly change hands. In the 1960s, the Mafia had a hand in the business, as they did with other Vegas hotels before Howard Hughes “cleaned up” the area. Other partial owners of the Riviera Hotel Las Vegas Nevada included Harpo Marx, Gummo Marx and Dean Martin. Today, “The Riv,” as the hotel is sometimes called, is owned by the Riviera Holdings Company. The Riviera Hotel Las Vegas Nevada has been featured in a number of films, which include Austin Powers International Man of Mystery, casino, Ocean’s Eleven and Go. Today, the Riviera Hotel Las Vegas Nevada invites you to experience the exciting nostalgia of Vegas’ Rat-Pack days, along with the modern amenities of a luxury hotel.
