The New Stanton Motor Lodge boasted "87 deluxe, air conditioned rooms equipped with color TV, radios, and other luxurious appointments." A somewhat early Motor Lodge, it was opened in 1960 near the Pennsylvania Turnpike's New Stanton interchange. Having celebrated in forty-fifth anniversary in 2005, it has had an exceptionally long run as a Howard Johnson's!

Not to be confused with the New Stanton Service Plaza Restaurant along the Turnpike, this was a complete Motor Lodge and Restaurant complex. The Restaurant had been owned by the Howard Johnson Company, and was one that was directly acquired by Marriott in 1985. Like many other Keystone State HoJo's, New Stanton prospered under the Orange Roof and was not converted into a Big Boy or other brand. When Marriott exited the restaurant business it transferred new Stanton to Franchise Associates Incorporated (FAI) which operated it from 1991 until the late 1990s. Its end came when FAI cashed in on its valuable real estate and the long-lived restaurant was demolished to make way for a Sheetz.
