The Best Slots in Vegas

The best slots in Vegas can be found at many of the top hotels and casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada. Even the best slot machines in Vegas still give the house a significant edge but some offer a better return than others. Rarely do Las Vegas casinos advertise their slots odds which is why this list includes the best casinos in Las Vegas for slot machines as voted on by users.

While the best slot machines will vary within each casino, some hotel-casinos in Las Vegas are known for being slightly more loose than others. The Rivera, Harrah's, the Luxor and Mandalay Bay are among the hotels on or near the Las Vegas Strip with the best slots while off-strip locations like Main Street Station, Binion's, Four Queens and the Golden Nugget are also reportedly homes for hot slots.

Typically, slot machines have paybacks of between 75% and 98%. That means that for every dollar you spend you will receive on average between 75 and 98 cents in return. The best hotels and casinos for slots in Las Vegas may claim to offer up to a 98% payback but those numbers can be deceiving. The "up to" part is key and technically a casino only has to offer one slot machine with that high of a payback to advertise that claim. Which slot machine among their hundreds it is they will keep secret.

What's not secret that some of the worst slots in Vegas are the first ones you see. McCarran Airport, the main airport for Las Vegas, is notorious for having the worst slots in Las Vegas. The airport makes big bucks on slots from anxious travelers and those looking to burn time waiting at the terminal.

Regardless where you play and if you're playing the penny multi-reel machines or the old school dollar slots, remember that the house, or the casino, always has the edge. Even the loosest slots in Vegas will still take 2% of your money. Sure some might have exciting sounds and cutesy animations but there's too much to see and do in Sin City to limit yourself to the dark confines of the casinos.
