The only thing better than luxuriating in a 5-star hotel is doing so with your best friend. There’s no need to continuously spend your vacation worrying about dog sitters or shelters when so many luxury hotels have accommodations ready for even the furriest of travelers. With a wide selection of pet-approved hotels to choose from, here are four with some of the most special pet amenities around. From the sandy beaches of Miami to the snowy streets of London, these hotels are ready to make your pet feel like the VIP they are. Make your stay as perfect a stay as possible by alerting the hotel’s staff about your plus one when you book.
With a prime location overlooking Kensington Palace, this five-star country mansion sets the tone for your pet right from the start. As soon as you stroll in your furry friend will receive a tailor-made welcome hamper with toys and treats, be sure to put those toys to use during a palace picnic at Kensington Gardens.
After a day full of play, help your pet get their best rest by creating a custom-made Milestone Hotel pet bed to pair with cushion duvets and floor mats. If they need some more pampering, engulf them in their own plush bathrobe and drop them off for a grooming session. Then, finish the day by sharing the finest culinary meal in London. With a special dog & cat menu that offers everything from Scooby Doo Spaghetti to Pooch Pancakes, your best friend’s appetite is sure to be satiated.
Let your best friend experience the vibrancy of Miami this spring. The Betsy South Beach’s CEOs (Canine Executive Officers) are ready to make this a special trip. On arrival you’ll be equipped with treats, bowls, waste bags, and pet beds! A bit jetlagged? The best cure is to wind down with a “couples” massage for you and your pet.
Be sure to stop by the dog photography exhibit during your stay. This love letter to The Betsy’s best dog employees, Betsy and Rosa, is open 24/7/365 and showcases the beauty and dynamism of a happy pet.
The Betsy has a one-time $150 pet fee, with 50% going to Miami-Dade Animal Rescue.
No one understands pet love like the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver. After all, they have two pups of their own on staff.

With a customized guide to all the nearest pet-friendly restaurants, patios, businesses, and parks, you’ll be set to explore the best the city has to offer together.
