Residence Inn by Marriott West Springfield  

In West Springfield just off the river, this hotel sits a short drive from the Big E, MassMutual Center and MGM Springfield. Holyoke Mall, Six Flags New England and local spots like Riverdale Center and the Olympia Ice Center are all within easy reach.

A mid-size hotel with 88 guestrooms that feel like a smart staycation: suites include kitchens with refrigerators and stovetops, separate sitting areas and flat-screen TVs. The lobby adds a cosy fireplace, there’s an elevator for accessibility, and rooms come with basics like showers, desks and satellite TV.

Swim in the indoor pool, hit the fitness center or grill out in the picnic and barbecue area. Complimentary Wi‑Fi and a lobby bar keep things easy and social, plus on-site laundry/dry-cleaning, car rental assistance and a safe-deposit box cover practical needs.

A business center and complimentary newspapers in the lobby make work travel simple, and free self parking keeps arrivals hassle-free.

Fuel up with a complimentary continental breakfast—weekday on-the-go options and extended weekend hours—then grab a drink at the hotel bar when you return from exploring local flavors.
