“Whether you're seeking a weekend getaway, a memorable concert experience, or enjoy gambling, Mohegan Sun is a must-visit destination that promises to leave you with cherished memories for years to come.”

Location


Located in the picturesque southeastern Connecticut, Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino sits on the ancestral grounds of the Mohegan Tribe. Just a short drive from major cities like Boston and New York, this premier resort is conveniently located off Interstate 395. Surrounded by scenic views of the Thames River and lush greenery, the location itself adds a touch of tranquility to the overall experience.


Luxurious Accommodations


Upon stepping into the hotel, I was immediately impressed by the elegant and contemporary design. Boasting over 1,600 rooms and suites, Mohegan Sun offers accommodations that cater to every taste and preference. From cozy rooms with breathtaking views to spacious suites complete with modern amenities, the hotel ensures a comfortable stay for its guests. My two-room suite had a bedroom and a separate living room. Both the full bathroom and the half bathroom were elegantly decorated.


Amenities Galore


Mohegan Sun takes hospitality to a whole new level with its wide range of amenities. One of the highlights is the Sky Tower, an architectural marvel that houses luxurious suites, a world-class spa, and a stunning pool. Whether you indulge in a rejuvenating massage or soak up the sun by the poolside, every moment is pure bliss.


Food and Dining


Mohegan Sun has over 40 dining options, ranging from upscale restaurants to casual eateries. There is something to satisfy everyone.


Entertainment Extravaganza


The true heart of Mohegan Sun lies in its world-class casino, where excitement and entertainment know no bounds. From the moment I entered, the energy in the air was palpable. With over 300,000 square feet of gaming space, I found myself immersed in a vibrant atmosphere filled with slot machines, table games, and poker rooms. The cheers and laughter from fellow gamers only added to the thrill of the experience.


Beyond the casino, Mohegan Sun offers a variety of entertainment options. I caught a thrilling live performance by Rhianna at the Mohegan Sun Arena, which hosts top-notch concerts and sporting events. For a more intimate experience, you can also enjoy a night of laughter at the Comix Comedy Club, where talented comedians keep the audience entertained.


Exploring the Surroundings


While Mohegan Sun offers a complete resort experience, it's worth venturing beyond its walls to explore the surrounding area. Nearby attractions include the charming Mystic Seaport, a living history museum that takes you back in time, and the Mystic Aquarium, where you can encounter fascinating marine life up close. These attractions provide a perfect balance to the vibrant energy of the resort, and I've had the pleasure of visiting the Mystic area several times.


My visit to Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino was both fun and relaxing. After enjoying the luxurious accommodations and top-notch amenities, and the electrifying gaming and thrilling entertainment, I definitely would consider returning. Whether you're seeking a weekend getaway, a memorable concert experience, or enjoy gambling, Mohegan Sun is a must-visit destination that promises to leave you with cherished memories for years to come.
