A small town nestled in Berks County, Pennsylvania, in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country, Leesport offers attractions like a great local farmer's market, a weekly livestock auction and a flea market on alternate Sundays. What it doesn't have so much of are places to stay. Luckily for vacationers and travelers, plenty of lodging options exist in the nearby town of Reading, only a few miles away.
The Comfort Inn in Reading, Pennsylvania, is located only 7 miles from Leesport, giving you easy access to both Leesport and the attractions of downtown Reading. The hotel offers all the basic amenities you'd expect from a national chain motel, including free wireless Internet and continental breakfast. Only 3 miles from the Comfort Inn is the Pagoda, a seven-story medieval Japanese-style building originally built around the turn of the century to be used as a luxury resort. The building was restored in 2008 and now has a gift shop on the first floor.
Convenient for travelers flying into the area, the Holiday Inn Express is located right next door to the Reading Regional Airport. The location is also close to the Reading outlet malls, and for history buffs the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum is right nearby. Monday through Wednesday evenings the hotel offers a reception for guests, including complimentary beer, wine and hot appetizers. Pets are not allowed.
Located in Wyomissing, just across the Tulpehocken Creek from Reading, the Country Inn and Suites is only 11 miles from Leesport. In addition to the standard amenities, the hotel has an indoor pool and an event hall that can hold up to 100 people. The Celebration Suite is more spacious than the standard guest rooms and comes with a whirlpool hot tub.
For those looking for more than a simple motel room, The Inn at Reading offers a level of comfort and style that puts it a step above other lodging options in the area. The hotel's restaurant, The Publick House Restaurant and Tavern, is modeled after an English pub and includes a billiards table and a full bar. The restaurant's menu includes pub favorites such as fish and chips, crab cakes and filet mignon. In addition, there's an outdoor pool with its own dining patio and bar.
