PLAINS TWP. — Mohegan Sun Thursday announced another significant accolade from the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards.

For the fourth year running, MGE’s flagship property, Mohegan Sun was voted “Best Casino Hotel” in the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards, receiving the number one spot in the category, along with top rankings in “Best Casino Outside of Las Vegas” and “Best Player’s Club” for its Momentum Rewards Program.

Nominees for the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards were chosen by a panel of experts that included editors from both USA Today and 10Best.com, as well as relevant expert contributors.

This year’s nominees included some of the most well-known casinos and resorts in the United States. Over a four-week period, readers voted on their favorite choices in each category.

“It’s a tremendous honor to be named ‘Best Casino Hotel’ for the fourth year in a row by the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards,” said Jeff Hamilton, President/General Manager of Mohegan Sun. “At Mohegan Sun, we take pride in offering guests world-class levels of service while being home to an incredibly vast range of unique amenities and experiences, all under one roof. We feel these awards are a testament to our exceptional team members, and we will continue to provide unmatched service and experiences to our visitors and loyal fans in 2021 and beyond.”

Mohegan Sun’s parent company, MGE, was also again recognized as part of Forbes’ annual list of America’s Best-In-State Employers 2021. Forbes and Statista selected America’s Best-in-State Employers based on an independent survey of approximately 80,000 U.S. employees working for companies employing at least 500 people in their U.S. operations. The surveys were administered using a series of online panels and provide a representative sample of the U.S. workforce.

The latest additions to Mohegan Sun include a world-class dining experience at TAO Asian Bistro & Lounge located in the Sky Tower Lobby, and the all-new Mohegan Sun FanDuel Sportsbook at Bow & Arrow Sportsbar. Online casino games were recently launched as well through MoheganSunCasino.com.
