Where to stay in Connecticut: Best areas for travelers

• Hartford: There's nothing like staying right in the thick of the action, especially when you have awesome attractions like Mark Twain House right on your doorstep. After a long day of marveling at the sights, climb into a nice, cozy bed at the Residence Inn by Marriott Hartford Downtown, the Execustay at Trumbull on the Park or The Goodwin Hotel.
• Mystic - New London: Home to plenty of big-name attractions, this is a key stop on any good Connecticut itinerary. If you're only here for a short time, make sure you visit Mystic Seaport - The Museum of America and the Sea. Rest your head at a top-rated hotel such as The Whaler's Inn, The Inn at Mystic or the Spicer Mansion.
• New Haven: With well-known sights like East Rock Park close by, New Haven lures travelers from all over. Want to find a great place to rest your head in this destination? We'd suggest you start by looking up the Graduate New Haven, the Courtyard New Haven at Yale and The Blake Hotel.
• Springfield: If Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is on your must-visit list (and it ought to be), you'll want to stay at least a few nights here. With great stays like the Holiday Inn Express Springfield Downtown, the Tower Square Hotel Springfield and the Sheraton Springfield Monarch Place Hotel on offer, it'll be easy to put together an awesome escape.
• Stamford: If you're into nature, there are so many sights to choose from in this popular destination. Sherwood Island State Park, Cummings Park and Bartlett Arboretum are a few attractions where you can take time out from the downtown bustle. Greenwich Point Park, Sleepy Hollow Park and Cove Island Park are other places to get close to nature. There are many hotels to choose from here, and the Residence Inn Stamford Downtown, the Courtyard by Marriott Stamford Downtown and the Hotel Zero Degrees Downtown Stamford are just the start.
