  • Pet policies: Every hotel has different pet policies. Some may only allow small dogs and cats, while others may have restrictions on the size and breed of pets allowed. It's important to read the hotel's pet policy carefully before you book your reservation.
  • Amenities: Some hotels offer amenities specifically for pets, such as pet beds, bowls, and waste bags. Others may have designated pet-friendly areas where your pet can play and exercise. Make sure to find a hotel that offers the amenities you need to keep your pet comfortable and happy.
  • Cleanliness: This is important for both you and your pet! Make sure to choose a hotel that takes cleanliness seriously and has a high standard for sanitation.
  • Reviews: Reading reviews from other pet owners can be a great way to get a feel for a hotel's pet-friendliness. Look for comments on the hotel's pet policies, amenities, and cleanliness.
