Perkiomen Bridge Hotel, also known as Lane's Hotel, is a historic hotel complex located adjacent to the Perkiomen Bridge at Collegeville, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The original building was built about 1706[2] (some sources say 1689[3]), with later expansions in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It consists of a c. 1800, three-story, six bay gable roofed stuccoed brownstone building with two-story porches and a low, gable roofed wing that is likely the oldest portion. Attached to this is a low, one-story kitchen wing and enclosed porch dated to about 1930.[2] The building was auctioned in 2010.[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
