Mohegan Sun

Pop quiz: What do The Tower of London and the Mohegan Sun casino and resort have in common? They’re both bordered by the Thames River. Well yes, technically they’re different rivers, the former being in England and the latter located in Uncasville, in the heart of the scenic foothills of southeastern Connecticut.

But that’s not the only surprise that this unique property holds in store for its guests. Did you also know that at 364,000 sq. ft., Mohegan Sun boasts one of the largest casinos in the United States? Whether or not you’re a gambler, you’ll be sure to come up a winner when you attend Smart Meeting Mohegan Sun, June 10-11, 2015. Take a closer look at why your first event of Summer 2015 should be in the Land of the Mohegan Sun!

Mohegan Sun: Inspired by Nature

Rock Wall Mohegan Sun

As its name implies, Mohegan Sun is owned by the Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut. The hotel opened its doors in 1996 and since that time it has invested in a $1 billion expansion, making it one of the premier destinations on the East Coast.

In designing the complex, the Mohegan Tribe incorporated the elements of its Tribal lore— earth, wind, fire and rain—which are reflected throughout the architecture and interior design of the building. In fact, in the words of Mohegan Sun, “the 34-story hotel reflects the Mohegan Tribe’s sensitivity to the natural landscape. Its three-winged structure features a crystalline-like exterior that was inspired by the rock and smoky quartz crystal the Mohegans used to fashion arrowheads and ceremonial objects.” Sounds like a more holistic place to stay than your standard big box hotel, right?

Ample Amenities
