When it comes to pet friendly accommodations, it’s often difficult for pet parents to choose where to stay with so many options to consider.  Well, we’re here to help!  We’ve come up with a list of the best pet friendly hotel chains, based on bookings we receive through our website and our call center.  Here’s a list of the top 5 “best of the best” for pet friendly stays.

1. La Quinta Inns & Suites

One of the all-time favorites among pet parents!  The La Quinta Inns & Suites properties offer convenient locations with reasonably priced accommodations.  Even better, their pet policy is truly a winner – pets stay free, with a warm welcome for pets of any size or breed.

2. Motel 6

Looking for a pet friendly place to stay that’s easy on the wallet?  Motel 6 offers budget friendly accommodations and so much more! Pet parents like the low-price rates as well as the fact that their pets stay free!  Motel 6 locations are another plus – they are conveniently located on major highways and along busy travel routes.

3.  Aloft Hotels

This boutique hotel chain is a hit with pet parents and their furkids.  Aloft Hotels break the mold when it comes to traditional hotel stays, and their locations are centered in cities to cater to more urban travelers.  A definite perk for pet guests is their Animals R Fun (ARF) program, offering pet guests special beds, bowls, treats during their stay, as well as free use of pet toys.  Aloft Hotels do not have pet fees, but some properties do require a pet deposit.

4. Candlewood Suites

Sometimes pet parents need somewhere to stay with their pups for an extended time, and Candlewood Suites is a great option for travelers who need pet friendly lodging for longer than the norm.  They offer many of the comforts of home, which makes for a much more pleasant longer stay.  The Candlewood Suites properties also offer extra pet amenities, such as pet relief areas, with free bags for pet waste and receptacles.  Human guests may bring large pet guests with them, and more than one as well!  The pet fees are based on how long guests are staying.

5. Red Roof Inn

At Red Roof Inn, pets stay free!  Not only that, but the room rates are very affordable.  And, with over 550 pet friendly locations along many highways and busy travel routes, it’s no wonder Red Roof Inn is very popular among pet travelers.
