Discover the best hotels for dogs (and their human companions)
If you’re looking to book a dog friendly hotel then you’re in the right place. I’ve reviewed more than 250 luxury hotels for ALadyofLeisure.com and across the hotel sector dogs are no longer a tolerated afterthought, but a treasured guest with their own dog menus, meals and tasty snacks, plus cosy dog beds and towels and a dog treat or two.
Pic credit: Hand Picked Hotels
With 70 per cent of dog owners saying that they take their dogs with them on holiday, and a boom in dog ownership post Covid, it makes a great deal of business sense for hotels to offer dog friendly stays, particularly as it’s not as easy to travel abroad with your dog as before. So read on to find the best dog friendly hotel near you – there’s a lot to choose from!
Where possible, I’ve included a link to the hotel dog policy so you can see exactly where your furry friends can roam during your stay and what they can expect, from sausages for breakfast, dog babysitting and dog grooming, and even doggy tapas for these ‘pawsome guests’!
