READ TIME: 3 MIN.
National Pet Day (April 11) is just around the corner. If you're looking for a last-minute getaway or a summer vacation to take your favorite four-legged friend, check out these terrific properties that will welcome you both!
Shinola Hotel, Detroit
Pets stay free of charge at Detroit's newest boutique hotel, opened earlier this year and located on the iconic Woodward Avenue. A partnership with Canine to Five Daycare allows you to drop off your dog so you can explore Detroit, catch a ballgame down the street at Comerica Park and grab a few brews at The Brakeman while your pooch enjoys their own day of play.
The hotel also provides dog walking services and special amenities like beds, bowls, and treats for each pet during their stay. Shinola Hotel, a project brought together by the luxury watch brand, real estate partner Bedrock, and their combined love for Detroit, offers a relaxing environment for both visitors and locals alike. Thumb through a magazine in the Living Room, grab a drink at Evening Bar, or enjoy a family meal at Andrew Carmellini's San Morello, all located in the hotel.
Generator Miami
Located in the heart of Miami Beach right on trendy Collins Avenue, Generator Miami is the inaugural U.S. property from acclaimed hospitality group Generator, which currently operates 13 award-winning properties across Europe.
Known for providing budget-friendly accommodations without compromising a sense of luxury and innovative design, Generator Miami features design-led social spaces, curated programming, popular food and beverage services from The Jim & Neesie restaurant and poolside bar Driftway, and a dog-friendly environment for travelers accompanied by their four-legged friends.
The Miami Beach hotspot welcomes dogs under 20 pounds in their private rooms, with a one time cleaning fee of $50. Visiting pets can beat the Miami heat with a bowl of water, tasty dog treats and a comfortable mat to lounge on, while their owners sip on bespoke cocktails by the pool and soak up the sun.
Pod Times Square, New York City
Take your four-legged friend on a getaway this Pet Day to The Pod Hotels flagship and newest property, Pod Times Square.
With a pet-friendly policy that allows dogs under 25 pounds, The Pod Hotels are the perfect place to take a vacation your whole family can join. For some extra pup pampering, check out a bunk bed style pod, where man's best friend can cozy up on the bottom bunk while you take the top.
There's no better time to visit New York City, with NYC Pride, WorldPride, and Stonewall 50 all being celebrated this June. And while you're in town, don't miss the new AKC Museum of the Dog.
