Stay here if you want to make your friends jealous
The Read property was a delight from check in to check out! Stunning decor, informative historical check in from the desk attendant, the doorman that goes above and beyond with a tip of the hat, a cozy and sultry bar vibe downstairs for a pre downtown drink. Beds are fluffy and inviting after a night out. Walking distance to many establishments, definitely recommend No Hard Feelings across the street for moody cocktails.

Read is WORTH IT
Deal on APP was incredible.
There is a 28$ Valet Parking Charge not mentioned. All things considered it was worth it. Excellent hotel @ a decent price.

A memorable stay
We were here for a wedding with the reception held in the silver ballroom.
There was a trolley that was taken to Patton Chapel but the hotel had valet which we used. The staff were efficient and hotel gorgeous. Our room was 516 very comfortable and nicely decorated.
