Springhill Suites by Marriott

There is no shortage of hotel chains to choose from in this area, but this is one of the best. Each of the rooms ($109–129 d) is a studio suite and there is a good (and free) buffet breakfast. The rooms have all of the amenities you’d expect in a nicer-than-average chain hotel: free Internet access, cable television, upgraded linens.

The hotel is close to all of the major area sights, including NASCAR attractions.
