Parents and kids on a New England junket can't miss being close to all the family friendly sights when they stay at this Howard Johnson Express in Springfield, Mass. Just three miles away, they'll find the Indian Motorcycle Museum, which displays hundreds of motorcycles used by Native Americans in the early 20th century. A little further down the road, sports fans can spend the day in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and fair goers here during September can hit the Big E, New England's autumn tradition and the ninth largest fair in North America. Kids will delight that they are only 15 miles from Six Flags New England.

Guests at this HoJo can jump start their mornings with the hotel's complimentary continental breakfast and then cool off later in the day in the outdoor swimming pool. The one floor, 100 room hotel also features parking big enough for family recreational vehicles and group buses.
