The Best Pet-Friendly Hotels Across the United States

Hotels Above Paw has officially arrived 🐶 🐾 — today, we’re taking a break from human-centric content and focusing on our furry family members. Leaving your dog to go on vacation is a pang of unexplainable guilt. As soon as we start packing our suitcases, our dogs know what’s coming and are furious; some give us stink-eye, others pout in a corner. Next time you’re craving a trip, consider taking your dog with you to these pet-friendly hotels designed to pamper both man and man’s best friend.

Bobby Hotel (Nashville, Tennessee)

Canine connoisseurs of fine taste will love the Bobby Hotel (@bobbyhotel) in Nashville.

The Beverly Hills Hotel (Beverly Hills, California)

An ideal vacation spot for guests with four-legged friends, they recently launched their “Pup-arazzi Adventure” package, which includes a pet-friendly hike through North Carolina’s scenic Blue Ridge Mountains via Asheville Wellness Tours, treats from local businesses such as Patton Avenue Pet Company, and the “Pup-arazzi” part of the deal: a one-hour photo session with a trained pup-photographer.
