Rivera Casino & Resort — Editorial review

Property overview

Rivera Casino & Resort is river-valley scale in Patagonia's north, and that description holds across the property rather than only in its marketing. Set in Punta del Este, Montevideo, and Mendoza, it is assessed here on rooms, service, dining, position, and value.

Its natural audience is regional stays and fishing itineraries. The features that define the stay are río negro valley, spa complex and event auditorium, and together they set both the strengths and the limits of the experience.

Our editors flag one thing above all others: a surprisingly complete resort for a town of its size. It is worth acting on at the point of booking rather than discovering at the front desk.

Stay questions

What does the price cover?

The rate generally covers accommodation alone. Breakfast, parking, and mandatory fees are usually additional, so read the rate description carefully.

Can I park at the property?

On-site parking is available in both self and valet form. A nightly charge usually applies and should be added to your total cost.

Should I book restaurants in advance?

Advance booking is strongly advised for the signature rooms, especially at weekends. Casual venues are usually fine without one.
