The Best of Slots 2025 Shines a Spotlight on Some of the Best Properties in the Gaming Industry
Slot fans love the thrill of seeing those mechanical or video reels spin. Maybe that bonus wheel, a pick’em game or some free spins will then make an appearance. The chance at an even much more massive win awaits when playing a progressive game—or at least the dream of a life-changing jackpot. But beyond the chance at some winning spins, players love the graphics, narratives, themes and challenges that today’s modern games provide. But today’s slot fans are in store for even more.
Many casinos go above and beyond in catering to this segment of the casino gambling public. Slot machines are the most popular form of casino games. A casino’s revenue from slots alone can reach as high as 80%, so there is plenty of competition to bring in these players. The Best of Slots Awards recognizes properties that showcase great slot options, customer service and much more.
Does this casino host some of my favorite games? Is there a wide variety of stakes and types of slots? What about progressive options? What is the drink service like? Is there a good mix of traditional and modern games? Can I play other games like keno, bingo and video poker if I’m looking for something a little different? How does a property handle comps, VIPs and other perks that players love?
The Best of Slots issue helps answer many of these questions. When you flip the pages in this year’s edition, you spot numerous casino resorts going out of their way to meet players’ needs on numerous fronts. These casinos offer a wide variety of games while also giving players a personal touch. Offering this type of service isn’t easy, but the Best of Slots recognizes properties that are making the effort. From the slot staff to the slot club to the casino floor, these casinos go the extra mile to keep players coming back.
The great thing about the Best of Slots is that the rankings come from our readers—players like you who walk the floors, pay your hard-earned money to play, and interact with casino staff.

The casinos on these lists are doing things right. They welcome slot players and staff members greet visitors and work to make sure they have a great experience—win or lose. These casinos have a major commitment to treating customers with respect and staff and management work hard to go above and beyond in service and amenities.
Check out each region and category to see which properties stand out and might be worth visiting. Did your vote make it? Are some of your favorites mentioned? A few hours in a casino can be a great opportunity to have some fun with friends and also put the daily grind in the rearview mirror—at least for a while. Perhaps there’s a property that really interests you. Hit the road for another casino adventure and hopefully plenty of good luck awaits!
