Correct Answer: will have reached the hotel
Solution : The right choice is the third option .
The original sentence, "I have reached the hotel, by the time you call me" uses the present perfect tense (have reached) in a way that doesn't align well with the time frame indicated by the phrase, (by the time you call me) which refers to a specific point in the future.
The suggested substitution ( will have reached) changes the tense to the future perfect, making it aligned with the given context as the future perfect tense is used for actions that will be completed before a specific point of time in future.
So, the correct sentence would be: "I will have reached the hotel by the time you call me."
