UNCASVILLE, CT (September 28, 2018) – As year-end rankings & awards for 2018 start to roll in, the premier East Coast gaming and entertainment destination, Mohegan Sun, is proud to announce multiple achievements. Most notably, Mohegan Sun earned top honors in the USA Today’s 10Best.com Readers’ Choice Awards, being voted “Best Casino Hotel.” The top spot in this category comes alongside #2 placements in the categories, “Best Casino Outside of Las Vegas” & “Best Player’s Club (Momentum)”
“Mohegan Sun has had an exhilarating year. Our destination became even larger with the opening of the Earth Expo & Convention Center, we rolled out all new regional perks for our Momentum members, had several guests win six figure jackpots, and significantly upgraded our deluxe hotel, including the fully revamped, 16,000 square-foot, Mandara Spa.” Said Mohegan Sun President & General Manager, Ray Pineault. “For Mohegan Sun to be voted #1 or rank within the very top in USA Today in categories like “Best Player’s Club,” and “Best Casino Hotel,” is an achievement on which we’re extremely proud of.”
Nominees for USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards were selected by a panel that includes editors from both USA Today & 10Best.com as well as relevant expert contributors. From there, readers voted over the span of four weeks on their top choices. Last year, Mohegan Sun was also named “Best U.S. Casino” in the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards.
