More luxury hotels than ever are giving the royal treatment to their guests and pets. But which lines are the four-legged-friendliest? Read on to find out about the top pet-friendly hotel chains in the world.
Westin Hotels
Plush robes, massages, luxurious beds, customized meals: It all sounds like the pampering a human would receive at a Westin hotel. While that may be the case, these also are some of the luxuries your pet can expect on a stay at one of the chain’s international luxury hotels. The concierge will even help you find the best pet-friendly activities in the area.

Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts
All of the hotels in this spectacular chain (from India to Australia) accept pets under 15 pounds, while some provide everything from special beds to supervised walks in nearby parks. Most even have on-call veterinarian services, healthy biscuits and dog bowls. But the pièce de résistance? Some of the chains have pet-specific in-room spa services.

Loews Hotels and Resorts
This stunning chain of hotels loves animals so much, they’ve created a “Loews Loves Pets” program in which your VIP (Very Important Pet) will be waited on “hand and paw.” From gourmet room service to special bedding and pet activities, they have everything on hand to make you and your pet feel at home. What’s more: Your manager or concierge can give you a list of pet-friendly restaurants and attractions near your hotel.

The chain has thought of everything, from designer toys and collars to special food and water bowls, so you won’t have to lift a finger for your furry friend.
