Right know I work for Chaos Group, but some time ago I was in the same situation that you are right now. I had around 5 different rendering engine in front of me and I have to decide which one meet my needs. After couple week testing the software I picked V-Ray. The GI quality, AA, speed, support, light type supported and the Rhino integration make my decision easy.
So, I picked V-Ray. Of course, I’m working for Chaos Group right now, but V-Ray still my main rendering engine for my personal works.
If you want to lean V-Ray, I can give you a free hour online training. I would recommend 2 renderer. 1.VRAY if you plan to export your model to 3dsmax, Vray would be the safest bet. The support is immense and it is fast and reliable result, also very easy set up.
Vray for Rhino is hopeless. If you want to stick to Rhino I would suggest the 2nd one. In Vray you can customize per material base, meaning you have greater flexibility and most of archviz rendering now are done in Vray. 2.MAXWELL if you plan to render in rhino. Maxwell is very famous for its physically correct lighting interaction with material especially metal and dielectric. There is a video on youtube about a guy comparing several renderer, Maxwell is noted to have one of the best metal shaders.
The only disadvantage in maxwell is that it takes considerably amount of time to render. But the result is satisfying.

So the choice is up to u. I think it also depends on the type of object and the scene set up.
Some rendering are suited for studio set up, some are for still image (no robust motion blur set up), some are good at handling Giga size data, some are perfect for big texture displacement, some supports PTEX, and some are highly customized so that you can write your own shaders. So the choice is also tied to your profession. In my opinion, if you just started to learn rendering, then pick the one that offers the best support for your job. For example, most archviz choose Vray because arch-related 3D model you can purchase (furniture, street signage, 3D plants, pavement, etc) shipped with Vray Material. While film production tends to pick blockbuster-level renderer like Pixar’sRenderman or Arnold (though Ive seen few production companies uses Vray too). And I ve seen Maxwell used in Commercial clip. As comparison, 3dsmax and Maya comes FREE with Mental Ray, which is actually a renderer engine that is comparable to Pixar’sRenderman.
