Stayed in the Abraham Lincoln based on its closeness to Sovereign Center. Hotel said it was a block an a half to Center, was 5 blocks. Our room was on top floor, very warm even with AC blasting. Ice machine on this floor not working, had to go down 2 floors to find ice. Beautiful rooms, but asked ahead for... More

This hotel is an older hotel but kept in reasonably good condition. You can tell it was a hotel of prominence in its glory years. It has a rich, magnificent lobby with high ceilings, two levels and a balcony that runs around the perimeter. The bar is small but quaint and has 6 beers on tap, most locally brewed. Top... More

Big luxurious room, very clean, quiet, no free breakfast but resonably priced restuarant in hotel. Very friendly staff. Will be staying here every 3 months for business and am glad to have the peace of mind that the place is so nice.

Loved our room - large jacuzzi in bathroom - 'window opening' from bedroom into bathroom. Old building in the center of Reading with lots of charm and history. Top notch front desk staff. Reservations easy. Check in easy. Parking in city garage next door was convenient and discounted. Beautiful lobby.

Nice historic hotel, still kept up nicely inside. Was here for a concert at the Sovereign Center. Had a jacuzzi room and found everything clean and comfortable. Convenient to many city restaurants.

I got a room here through Priceline. When we pulled up I didn't really know what to expect, the neighbourhood is a little sketchy and the one way streets make it difficult to get where you need to be. They could be a little clearer that you have to pull into the paid parking garage in order to check in... More

My boyfriend and I stayed in this hotel because we were attending a concert at the Sovereign Center a few blocks away. I was skeptical pulling up to the hotel because the area is in a vert "rough" part of town. When we got there, the parking was easy to locate around the corner of the building. We entered the...

Stayed two nights at this Wyndham for easy access for a business trip. Staff was Exceptional! Loved Stephanie at the Desk, and Patricia and Daniel from the restaurant were Very attentive! Room was large and clean, though we did have a "leaky" window, but that is to be expected in such a beautifl, historic hotel!

We live in the area and stayed here for a special event. Downtown Reading has a lot to offer especially the restaurants. While the hotel was clean I can't help but think of the nearby hotels that offer even more(bigger rooms and free parking). Check in was smooth with no problems. The first impression of the room was the sweltering... More

Booked this hotel in the blind on Priceline name your own price. Was pleasantly surprised when I discovered which hotel it was as my fiance' and I have talked several times about staying here. Check-in was quick, friendly and effortless. View from the 11th floor was pretty good especially at night. The extra pillows that I requested were promtly brought... More
