We love traveling with our pets. Our Dachshund, Oliver, comes with us nearly everywhere. And of course, we want to make sure that he has a four-paws-up experience, each and every time. So we asked the luxury custom travel professionals behind New York City and Palm Beach-based Sienna Charles, to help us determine the best places to bring our four-legged friends.
Here are their top picks:
- The Lowell Hotel, NYC believes in giving your furry friend nothing but the best. With its pet room service your pal can enjoy a cozy night in. Just know who to blame when you see the movie charges for Air Bud and Beethoven
- The Little Neill, Aspen gives pets their own customized pet tag, epicurean treats, and plenty of other specialized eats with their custom pet menu. Pets even receive a special Puppy Jet Lag Kit to help them adjust to the altitude
- The Jefferson Hotel, Washington D.C. offers pups cozy bedding, overflowing dog bowls, and some of the best dog-friendly parks in the U.S. They even have their own doggie mascot, Monti, that your pooch can pal around with
- The Ritz Carlton, San Francisco offers a “Pampered Pooch” package that includes a custom pet tag, an in-room pet framed bed, pet in-room dining menu for room service; and a “Pooch Pack” featuring dog-related activities in San Francisco, including nearby parks, beaches, fun walks and more
- The Mandarin Oriental, Miami has earned a reputation with its five-star treatment to pets. Programs range from special doggie menus, turndown service, puppy play dates and grooming services
- Hotel Splendido, Portofino, Italy offers easy access to a dog-friendly beach where you both can spend the day soaking up the rays. This hotel literally lives up to the phrase “life is a beach”

Oliver can’t wait for his next vacation!
